Low Effort Blogging: Party in the CIA
Having committed myself to a deadline, I've got a lot of work to do. So I'll leave you in the capable hands of Weird Al Yankovic and the rockin' military industrial complex. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-CG5w4YwOI "Burn that microfilm buddy, will you? / I'd tell you why but then I'd have to kill you."
An Inspiring (?) Song
Sometimes, when you're feeling down, a rollicking, inspirational musical number can give you a much needed injection of spirit, telling you that you can do anything.

Annibale Della Genga and Francesco Castiglioni entered the sacristy, put on their albs, and … Continue reading Low Effort Blogging: The Two Altar Boys
‘Lovely People’
A friend put me onto this graphic novel / webcomic, all about the workings of a social credit system as experienced by a trio of bunnies. It's really quite well done and an excellent dissection of, well, just how horribly abusive such a system is or would be, and the power and dangers of horizontal … Continue reading ‘Lovely People’
Niceness is Fun
