I made this after actor-comedian Alan Young's death in 2016, paying tribute to his two most famous roles. (Was looking through my old DeviantArt profile in preparation for starting it up again)

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.

The post is pretty good, but this anecdote is the best part, reproduced verbatim: The year was 1770, and in a small Italian church, two altar boys prepared for Benediction. 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’
