"Things you should never do with your money according to experts" I dunno, have a big moneyfuck like in "Danger Diabolik"?

today, revision of June drawing of a Neanderthal with his spirit hawk and an Uldra facing a real angry yeti; and a plate armored adventurer defends against a rakshasa while a rakshasi looks on.

less country music songs about how rural America is proudly homophobic, conservative and religious, more country music songs about UNDEAD COWBOYS.

it's weird, I resent rich people a lot, but until literally less than a year, I would never have imagined "the second wealthiest person in the world is someone I very deeply and personally hate and would love to punch repeatedly."

I was thinking about this because the place I was at had the song on the PA. It’s fairly sad for me, because even though we survived that crummy apartment as a couple, there was a lot more hell to come, stress really messed with the never-great odds of us lasting, and eventually we broke up. Anyway if you haven’t seen the movie it’s really charming, it’s one of my big favorites.

In the movie Yellow Submarine, the song “When I’m 64” gets a little countdown with animation ending in a silhouetted couple kissing. A friend lent me and the ex their VHS copy of Yellow Submarine during a *really* bad year - an apartment we thought would be OK turned out to be very not OK, and that movie really helped us both to keep our sanity together, we watched it a lot. So one of our things as a couple became, if “When I’m 64” was playing we’d kiss at the end. I mean a cartoon *said* to.

when the moon hits your belly just like sfogliatelle that's amore

so a monk goes to a hot dog vendor and says "make me one with everything"

the hot dog guy shakes celery salt and chopped onions on him, squirts mustard on his shaved head, and tucks tomato slices behind his ears

and he was enlightened!

puerile humor, all caps Melville quote 

so this ship captain walks into a bar and his fly's open

so the barkeeper says sir everyone can see your dick so he says

AYE AYE TWAS MOBY DICK THAT DISMASTED ME MOBY DICK THAT MADE A POOR PEGGIN' LUBBER OF ME FOREVER AND A DAY! AYE AND I'LL CHASE HIM AROUND GOOD HOPE AND ROUND THE HORN AND ROUND THE NORWAY MAELSTROM AND ROUND PERDITION'S FLAMES BEFORE I GIVE HIM UP AND THIS IS WHAT YE HAVE SIGNED FOR MEN TO HUNT THE WHIT....

oh wait, the joke's supposed to be "he has a ship's wheel on his penis"

I wanna walk like you, talk like you too
you see it's true an ape like me can learn to be human too
*winces*

gotta say between the temp job cancelling on me and the smarmy of-course-we-have-an-excuse email from the landlords, this fucking day has probably moved me far closer to heart failure or stroke than the entire last two weeks.

oh but Amazon's warehouses are always hiring

how nice

A Tribute To Vernon - Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom - by John Wil... youtu.be/iyOVmES9Pbk via @YouTube

I haven't watched the start to the movie in years because the sinophobia really grates on my nerves and I missed that part of the movie has *this* gem. John Williams doing jazz, where he started out.

problematic movie, violence, cinematography 

Listening to the soundtrack to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom; our society really has a visual language about weaponry that gets played with in this movie. The only big fight with melee weapons uses tulwars (long visual elements), the only time someone actually tries to knife someone, Chattar Lal swaps grip on a dagger (not a katar!) dramatically as a *framing* element, but even though nobody actually *uses* a katar in the movie, they're the closest read to "a batch of people point guns at the main character."

a track so funky that within 30 seconds I was bobbing my head, within 2 minutes I was dancing, within 4 minutes I was smoking inside restaurants, and by the time it was finished I was fighting The Mob trying to move in on Harlem

any song which includes a "WHAOOOOOO!" is automatically good

examples; "What I Like about You," "Venus," "Lapti Nek," etc.

“Five Machines that Changed the World.” In 500 BCE, Ronpopeilides created his Efkolo Kalamari. Rome shook to its core with the Vegematai invented by G. Ronpopillius. The Tang Dynasty saw the Yufu Zui Hao De Pengyou of Lon-Po Pei Li. In every age a new Ron Popeil has arisen.

You’ve seen Cocaine Bear, but now get ready for Espresso Fennec!

Problem with “okay I’ll go to the company picnic so I can get a feel for people and locations they work with” is NOW there are people and I’m trying to say hi rather than hide as is my natural reaction.

so far today, human, dwarf and elf from D&D’s “Dark Sun” setting.
