Don’t like posting personal info. Safe to say that I am an AF Vet, retired (power gen), read way too many books, love live loud music (pop-punk, metalcore), ex news junkie, not a cult member.

That’s not my pic, it’s a fucking Marshall stack.

As the would be king and his court of fools are about to take over, while wars and brutality consume the world, as our nation is dividing in two -

I post about music and concerts.

This is what brings me peace of mind.
Chain is closing its doors in a week. This venue has been around for nearly 30 years.

This small venue, holds 250, has had some big name bands play its stage. Local kids got their first experience playing on an actual stage.

Over the last decade we have lost Irvine, FivePoint, and now Chain.

California and Blue States, you know what to do.

The Supreme Court allows Trump and Texas to gerrymandering and steal the 2026 election?

OK. Game on.

If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are:

1. Really stupid; or

2. Dangerously detached from reality; or

4. Lying; or

4. All three. 🎯

A month of holidays. The onslaught of advertising encouraging all to spend, imbibe, indulge.

Movies, music, lights, trees.

And how the fuck is it December?

Ok. Fuck it. I will not grinch out this year. I need some Xmas music to get me going.

For my LA people (most of you)

These is my cousins. They've had to make a terrible choice. They're the best people and this dog is even better. A goodest boy. If you're looking for a furry family member who's an absolute doll, please lemme know and I'll put you in touch with my cousins.

A video surfaced showing the brutalization of community members by ICE and the St. Paul, Minnesota PD after ICE abducted two of their neighbors. As a result of the chemical munitions and police beatings, eight people, including a journalist, were hospitalized. 11/25/25

Thor is at the vet for planned teeth cleaning and possible extractions.

Loki refuses to leave my side.

Thanksgiving has a weird history of being a scary week for my pets.
Last year, Loki spent a whole day at the ER.

13 years ago, we had to put Nicodemus down on actual Thanksgiving.

Condemning Israel for their actions is not antisemitic. Israel is a government, not a people. Condemning a government's actions is not condemning or all encompassing of Jews. Two completely different things.

This should alarm everyone.

On Thursday, Florida, by unanimous vote, became the first state in the country to adopt “The Phoenix Declaration: An American Vision for Education.”
It was written by the Heritage Foundation, the same group behind Project 2025.

THIS IS INDOCTRINATION

Went food shopping Monday evening. My debit card was declined three times. They were sufficient funds in the account. (Son paid).

Got home and there was an email and a text from the bank alerting me to a suspicious charge.

Yeah, no shit. Was trying to buy fucking groceries.

I am on Vyvance, but mine is an Australian generic so I don't need to worry about myself.

However, to all of my US friends, please be mindful of the generic you are on.

I fucking hate holidays including Halloween.

If we must, then we need some appropriate music.
