I would have left them alone if they hadn’t made me move my goddam trashcans.

tips for forming a nu metal band
As a once popular artist within the nu metal genre myself, I thought I’d be in a great position to tell this person exactly what to do and where to go.
Brazil is no longer safe for LGBTQ+ leaders
With Venezuela all over the news this week, I want to make sure people don’t forget to pay attention to the militia violence that’s threatening to expand in nearby Brazil. Anyone there who speaks out is a target, especially if they’re against police violence and/or they are the wrong color or gender. And especially so […]
The Clanking Entrails of Baphomet Witch Riders
Did you know that Spotify is for losers? You should really get a YouTube membership. It’s only a few bucks to remove ads, they have all the tunes that Spotify is too lame to even know about, and I updated a great metal playlist for you–it’s got metal from every era and genre (except the […]
Waite Phillips had tunnel vision.
I found myself cackling at this little interesting history lesson and tour of the tunnels beneath the streets of downtown Tulsa, my hometown. Apparently Waite Phillips, the founder of Phillips 66, was too scared even to walk the streets in front of his own buildings due to what the rich perceived as a rash of […]
happy birthday to me!
Thanks everyone for all the birthday well-wishes yesterday! Seeing a House seat in Oklahoma turn from red to blue was one of the best presents I could ever receive. … though seeing Scott Walker have his ass handed to him in Wisconsin was a particularly delicious thrill!
It’s not “radical” for revolutionary whites to abstain from voting. It’s selfish, myopic, privileged and dickish.
“If voting really accomplished anything, they’d make it illegal,” your radical friends say? Well they are making it illegal, so tell them to shut the fuck up. And if they, or you, are sitting on a mountain of privilege because you’re white, male, cis, or unlikely to have friends and family affected by ICE or […]
my answer to a now-deleted question on Quora
I had fun answering this question on Quora, but in the middle of trying to add photos to my response, the folks at Quora removed it. Yeah, it was a weird, racist-y troll question, but I think I had a really good answer. Here it is. Did Armenians lose their ancient land, Antarctica, to penguins? […]
Kavanaugh’s confirmation will spell the end of GOP hegemony (if we want it).
With their rush to nominate Kavanaugh, they’re actively working to piss off the voters they most desperately need if they want to keep control in 2018.
Melting Pot Storytelling tonight at the Occupy ICE L.A. camp!
BUSted Los Angeles, A Rrose In a Prose REVIVAL!, and Occupy ICE L.A. are presenting Melting Pot, a storytelling show devoted to immigrants and tales of immigration. It will be held outside The Metropolitan Detention Center (535 N. Alameda Ave) –but actually we’re around the corner on Aliso, the street that borders the 101 highway–just […]
Help Geo get back to El Salvador!
If Geo wanted to turn himself in to ICE, he could technically go back “all expenses paid!” But we don’t want him to go through the pain, humiliation, and danger of being another piece of flotsam churning through the ICE-y stream. No matter where you stand politically, I don’t think you want that, either.
Progressives Need to Run for Office–Any Office!
We spend so much time trying to plead for mercy and understanding from those in political power, when in fact we could be them, in some cases merely by writing our names on pieces of paper.
If you don’t watch this video of my band playing “I’m So Bored with the U.S.A.” then clearly you hate me and you’re SCUM and I don’t want to know you.
Happy Interdependence Day, everybody! This is a cover of the Clash by the Children of Jack Acid.
