George: Oh, yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare ‘em.
Billy: Well, it don't make ‘em runnin’ scared.
George: No, it makes ‘em dangerous.

It's the same assholes! Trump, Pelosi, Schumer? They're the same generation of boomer as the hippies, then the yuppies, then the vulture capitalists, and now the OLDZ who won't let America get into the new century. Take your crepuscular grip off of power already!

Time for fresh energy and ideas.

I'm in trouble at home again for framing the fall of Lucifer as a labour dispute.

Apparently it's fine in my head, but shouldn't be expressed in front of children.

I was once hopeful they'd develop a nasal vax to prevent catching/spreading Covid. There were promising starts but now I don’t believe anything else will be done re: Covid.

Those of us still taking precautions have to find a way to move forward in the reality that THIS IS IT.

I opened my gmail to a friendly reply to a fan email I sent to a favorite writer / Psychedelic therapist, Neal M. Goldsmith. I was as excited as if I heard back from John Foxx or Ralf Hütter! Good day! #Psychedelic #Entheogens.

The 1962 short Czech “LSD documentary" with Stanislav Grof: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bwlx... "Looking for Toxin X." YouTube can generate English subtitles. Grof looks like the perfect European Vampire! #StanislavGrof #LSD #Psychedelics

Trump's an energy vampire, feeding on a hundred million people stressing about every unhinged TRUTH he posts. Just can't keep doing it to myself.

Today, answered BlackTape fan emails from Berlin Germany, Wales, Upstate New York, the UK, Mexico City, Auckland NZ.

It's interesting when a 22 year old is listening to MESMERIZED BY THE SIRENS which I recorded when I was 22, Many lifetimes ago in 1987!!!

Some moods are eternal, I see.
Today, fans from: Palestine West Bank, Brighton UK, Chile, Baltimore, Sweden, Tacoma, South Korea

“…after the passing of my mother, your music, along with Current 93, Captain Beefheart, and Faust, taught me that beauty is everywhere and even reproducible in the real world through human endeavor.”
Today, fans from: Portland, OR; Kansas City, KS; Switzerland, Mexico.

How do you keep the noise of all the chaos and all those sirens out of your head? I do it with order and anal-compulsion which keeps the noise at bay so it doesn’t overwhelm me. She said that for her, the noise is much closer to the surface. It’s a roar, the Klaxons always wailing.

I like that i don't even know much about Projekt Records aside from Black Tape for a Blue Girl and Area but i can often tell by ear if a band was on Projekt because they have such a distinct sound

My mom was Swiss, but I was made in America; apparently I can no longer call myself "Swiss-made," based on the 2017 Swissness Act. 🤣 @npr.org

Toblerone is no longer Swiss enough to feature the Matterhorn on its packaging
Toblerone is moving some of its production to Slovakia, meaning it can no longer legally call itself "Swiss-made." That branding change will include swapping the iconic peak for a more generic one.

Danny Boyle's T2 TRAINSPOTTING did a great job of continuing the story 21 years later. It could have been a letdown, but it was quite entertaining.
