weirdest song associations;

* I associate Queen's "A Kind of Magic" album with both Shadowrun and the 8 bit version of the Robocop theme (my dorm had the arcade game)

* thanks to a dream I associate Spinosaurus with the "They Swim" track from Alien Resurrection

* I am not entirely sure why I associate "867-5309/Jenny" with riding bikes

the most ghetto take on Hainan chicken is to microwave one of those quick rice things, microwave some diced precooked chicken from Safeway, and put the actual effort into making ginger-garlic-salt-pepper-oil to go on top, chop a couple of green onions as well

in other news I cooked lunch for myself if you're not picky about "cooked"

I really hate how whenever I miss something and it gets caught by someone else, no matter how routine or how quickly I can backtrack to fix it, it's this heart attack about how an authority is going to call me on it and I will lose my job as the adult-world variant of being screamed at for how stupid I am.

You’re only allowed to throw your own head! It’s against the rules to throw anybody else’s head!

Not only does WFH mean I can flame out to “If That’s Your Boyfriend (He Wasn’t Last Night)”, “It’s Raining Men,” “Would I Lie To You” etc, it means I can use up the last jajangmyun for breakfast! I’m drunk with power here!

THERE WAS A WOMAN IN THE JUNGLE AND A MONKEY ON A TREE
THE MISSIONARY MAN HE WAS A FOLLOWIN’ ME
HE SAID STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOIN’
GET DOWN UPON YOUR KNEES
I’VE A MESSAGE FOR YOU THAT YOU GOTTA BELIEVE BELIEVE BELIEVE
*grinds hips*

hey wait if I work from home I don’t just get music with no headphones, I can dance to it, and I don’t mean doing The Bassist Head Bob, I mean really get into it, hips and shoulders and neck. It’s gonna be a one-scrawny-non-domestic-canine Pride rally here in a couple of minutes.

Well we're in my woodie goin' down the road
Gotta pull off to the side cause I gotta explode
[chorus]
I gotta pee (pee pee pee pee pee pee pee)
yeah gotta pee (pee pee pee pee pee pee pee)
oh I gotta pee (pee pee pee pee pee pee)
yeah I havta pee (oooowhoooo hooooo hoooooo)

I had a huge iced tea before I got to the beach
I gotta unzip my wetsuit but it's so hard to reach
[chorus]

The Beach Boys' "Gotta Pee," and "Gotta Poop (and Maybe Pee)" which appears on their Necessary Bodily Functions album. Please note, "I'm So Tired" is actually a Beatles song and not on that album.

it's beyond absurd that the THING that LITERALLY DESTROYED HUMANITY'S VIEW OF THE STARS thinks the problem with everything is Jews, trans people, and while he's not saying it as loudly, obviously also Blacks.

it's WORSE that he's saying it intentionally because he knows people will support him

Just in case you wanted some numbers, Elon Musk's net worth is 269.8 billion USD and George Soros' net worth is 6.7 billion USD according to the same online source; Jonathan Greenblatt, a former entrepreneur who heads the ADL, is worth $5 million.

Y'wanna know the wildest part of Jewish conspiracy theory? Wilder than how there are nearly none of us left, with nearly no money?

It's how they chose THE group which is TERRIBLE about agreeing on ANYTHING. Trust me, if there were a Jewish conspiracy it'd last for five minutes before it fragmented or we'd get into a screamingly loud argument about something mindbogglingly pointless.

oh fuck yeah the best part of Conan the Barbarian with the long dead king on his throne

which means I need to rewatch the best part of The Northman when he fights the howe-dweller

but then oh naw that was just a hallucination. Which is about as disappointing as Obama's second term

Now noticing that like Ep IV, "Conan the Barbarian" is distinguished by a real slow build. We know about his world of different ethnic groups, elaborate myths, fairly good metallurgy, sorcery and slavery long before the movie tells you he's a badass. I like that a lot more than the Jason Momoa one where little Conan was a one-man-SEAL-team before he could shave.

figure I would alternate a movie with looking at other stuff so it's time for Conan the Barbarian

hey, I can turn subtitles on in French. Conan seems like a pretty bandes designee sort of movie, and so far it's REALLY WORKING for me.

Something I’m sure I’ve hit before, with being heterodox for the holiday, is realizing that doing nothing other than praying all day isn’t punitive, it’s meditative. As soon as I stop, it’s very hard to get back in the groove; of course given my ADHD and childhood, it always *came across* as some sort of punishment.

the accidental discovery of even more horrifying antisemitism that nobody ever told me about, with the accompanying bad mood.

if you were curious about a jazz cover of the theme to Lawrence of Arabia, I've discovered one I like WAY more than the original track

holy SHIT I just discovered Savana Funk while searching to see if anyone had done a funk cover of the Lawrence of Arabia theme (no, but there are jazz covers)

check them out it's all stuff like https://youtu.be/4JKOqEanIKk?si=UsJz5v1RvI3PjMRK

This book I’m going through riffs off a several generations long feud to talk about 9th-11th century England in general. So far the really neat thing has been a discussion of how coinage worked after Alfred and how there sure seems to be a ton of silver coin circulating England as indicator of why folks like Duke William or the Great Pagan Army would be that interested in the place.
