To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Fats Domino was rescued.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Have they confirmed that Fats Domino is safe?

Yes.

List of New Orleans musicians who are safe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Allan Toussaint was on Letterman last night! That was cool.

Oh man, the Canadians are showing us up.

Dude, that's not even news. That's just the way it is.

Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah...well, my grief is somewhat mitigated by not having to be locked in a closet with pervy Uncle Rupert, mos def, but still... And yeah, Hec, would hate to lose job and reapply for the benefits but would love to list "punched McClellan in the mouth" under "Reason for Dismissal. He'd probably cry like a little bitch, too, and not like one of ours. Nuh uh. Not good enough. Wanna see him and "Brownie" as Oz-Style "prags", complete with make-up. Schillinger optional. ETA: Five words for Rush: Social. contract., you. junkie. asshole. (Mostly I'm fairly forgiving of such personal weaknesses, but he's totally gotten Special handling over it, and it turns my stomach.)

I actually know more words to "Who's to blame?" (and I like it) than the others. It is just the usual frustration of my rare earworms: I want to finish the song. And I can't. Cause I can't recall lyrics fershit.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

In other news, I read David Brooks's op-ed piece today, against my own wisdom.

Someone award Nutty a Congressional Medal of Freedom, stat!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

So being humane to the poor is the root of all problems? Is that what Rush is saying?

By those standards Victorian-era Whitechapel must have been paradise.
