The new album is so good, check it out if you haven’t yet!

The same plot was done on Futurama, episode “Parasites Lost”.
Fry’s brain worms make him smart, Leela falls in love with the new smart version of Fry.

I’m currently at an event where they’re displaying the fabulous Baseball Diamond!
If anyone tries to steal it, we’ll catch those thieves red handed!

I spied this one yesterday.
Had to stop the car and get out to take a pic.

I love that Futurama is the reason I already knew about this place.

Look, Kids! Jacob Elordi stopped by unannounced to ask us all to tell all of you that you should all go see Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein in a real movie theater!
Also, he said, “Grrrrr… FIRE BAD!”

Wishing a glorious well deserved retirement to Dr Demento!
Here’s the archive search results from the Demented Music Database showing the 8 times I was honored to have a song featured on the Dr Demento show.
Childhood Dream Career Achievement 8 times over!

I just saw Kathryn Bigelow’s new film A House of Dynamite and it’s phenomenal. Sadly, Netflix has only given it a very limited theatrical release. If you wanna see it in a theater (highly recommended), better catch it in the next week (and that’ll only work if you live in a major city).

Sad that we’ve lost Dr Jane Goodall (or “that Jane Goodall tramp” as some fondly knew her). Always high on my list of people I greatly admire.
She shared some wonderful wise advice during her life, advice that typically went ignored in the halls of power in our Earth destroying capitalist hellscape.
