god, there's a great slurpeepost that i want to keep up with and I can't find my thesaurus. i'm mad. very mad. very very mad. i'm very very very very mad about this.

yo dude, gen z here! what's a thesaurus

gen z is smarter than we are and here you sit trying to shoot the sun with a slingshot

i got algorithmed a youtube video where someone who sounded gen z decided to challenge themselves to order a pizza from a blu-ray player

not a super complicated hardware exploit, the device had built-in streaming "apps" built on web, so step one was just to successfully direct DNS requests for streamingwebsite.nl to google.com

step two is write some javascript to get mouse focus, enable spatial navigation, and write your own softkeyboard so you can use the remote buttons to type

anyway he did it he ordered the pizza

is it a cancer cure? no, but that useless project is so much cooler than whatever I've been doing with my spare time most of the time

meanwhile i struggle with pushups, one of the least intellectually challenging exercises in the market

a cube would help

i can lose a frankly alarming amount of blood without getting pale or dizzy or anything, it turns out

use a wooden stake or some oxyclean

hey yo the song you can't identify on that one unmarked cassette tape you bought a while ago is "the groove" by Rodney Franklin

there are a couple of others but you'll be able to Shazam them eventually. squadalah

July VCR reemerges

starting a band called What Your Parents Tell You so that people ask each other "do you listen to What Your Parents Tell You?"

making a movie called This Shit
making a thoughtful artsy indie game about loneliness called With Yourself
making a really tough pixel platformer called You're Meat Today

too late, vampires already went extinct due to the poorly-executed efforts of the worst vampire hunting clan in history, the Cox family

this is the best way to name a band

according to legend Brownsville Station was named to take up a lot of space on venue marquees

originally I didn't understand the band name 'The Reunion Show' but then I realized that when you put it on a flyer, it looks like the other band broke up and got back together

blue-jean lady

ipad baby

think about how funny it isn't when people our age reference 6-7

next year's theme, for the 26th clock day in 2027, can be 26-27

given the extra year of time, it'll be even more out of touch

I've been served an ad for the all new brand new Oni Press Archie #1

which I wasn't going to buy anyway, hey I can respect some Archie but we're not tight like that

it looks like it was drawn by someone who learned to draw(?) on the Internet. the official Archie Artstyle is formulaic and played out, it's true, but that doesn't excuse lopsided microencephalic mob characters or sexy Jughead:



actually what shocked me the most was a vignette of The Archies in the full-page splash panel where Archie is dreaming, not because things have changed but apparently because they haven't: Veronica plays keyboards. Betty plays tambourine. They always have.

I don't know if this is just a glacial shift in the perception of popular misic culture that's occurred since the '60s, but clearly Ronnie should be out there hamming it up on tambourine, while Betty is relegated to the highly skilled but thankless, unsexy keyboard position that only exists in bands for nerds
