The suburbs of Chicago contain villages called Forest Park and Park Forest. I have always found this to be very silly.

You’re telling me that an average stoner can figure out how to extract THC from weed and infuse it into butter to make it edible, but a bunch of scientists don’t know how to take the salt out of salt water to make it drinkable? They don’t even need to do anything with the salt, just take it out!
I don’t get how we could possibly he heading towards a fresh water crisis. Water is so fucking simple, scientists can’t just make new water in a lab? Just get a big vat of hydrogen and a bunch of trees to make oxygen and fucking slap ‘em together.

I should do a Fast and the Furious marathon with some folks soon. It’s been years since I’ve seen the first two, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of the other ones.

Leaving Parks and Recreation seems like it was a bad career move for Paul Schneider.

According to last.fm, my most listened to Boards of Canada track by far is “Dandelion”, the short transitional track on Geogaddi that features Leslie Nielsen. I could listen to it a million times.

PLEASE tell me you left a comment. how’d you even find this bozo’s blog?
I didn’t even read the comments because I figured they would be equally or more asinine. A link to that article showed up in my facebook feed from someone who was making fun of it and I couldn’t resist reading it.

Speaking of reddit, in an attempt to reduce my daily intake of frustrating stupidity and depressing bullshit, I’m trying to retire from commenting on reddit (not including the subreddits that never make me mad, of which there are maybe two). You might see a decrease in humorous posts about men’s rights activists, but I need it for my sanity.

here’s what I have to add to this discussion about atheism, it’s not much but
I find it really interesting that atheism covers a vast number of separate and distinct ideologies and, in many of its forms, is patently against rigid ideologies and orthodoxy but so much of atheism’s loudest defenders (reddit atheists and richard dawkins sycophants) espouse an incredibly...

Independence Day is a pretty bad movie, but Roland Emmerich hit it out of the park with the casting. Bill Pullman is a perfect boring white guy to play a president, and the blandness of that character puts more focus on Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum who are basically the two most likable people that have ever existed. Also, Brent Spiner.

Props to Kathryn Bigelow for using “Pavlov’s Dogs” by Rorschach in one of the torture scenes in Zero Dark Thirty. That’s a relatively obscure and awesome choice. (Especially when you consider that the song is basically about people being socially conditioned to do evil things)

Danse Manatee really cools off the apartment.
Sometimes if I listen to Campfire Songs I will feel the crisp breeze of an autumn night.

I will almost definitely put the AC in this week (possibly even tomorrow) because fuck it is too hot in this apartment by at least 15 degrees.

As a “punk rocker”, I don’t care at all about Kanye West wearing a studded leather jacket. It hasn’t even been a fashion symbol of the “punk movement” or whatever in like 35 years. If I saw someone wearing one at a basement show I would probably make fun of them. It’s like something Green Day would wear at the VMAs thinking it gave them “punk...

I funded David Liebe Hart’s punk album on Kickstarter and he sent me an advance copy a month ago that I’m just now getting around to listening to. His punk voice is great. It sounds like he keeps switching back and forth between his regular voice and one of his scarier puppets.
