“a pet or tame animal,” especially a lamb, late 15c., often used in reference to young animals abandoned by their mothers and brought up by hand; of unknown origin. Meaning “spoiled or over-indulged child” is from 1877. Also as a verb, “to rear by hand or tenderly,” and an adjective (late 15c.).

… the Okie Devil of Text Us sent through a wonderful birthday missive to me, Dear Reader. Chocked with music, images, humour and humility, I am happy to share it with you, below…

OK, so, it’s a day early. Today is Thursday May 51st of 8210, and I started writing this latest piece of shit yesterday. But I’ve almost finished it, gonna send it over to her soon, and she’ll post it whenever she does. Pretty sad that this is the best that I can do with respect to giving her a gift, but, it’s all I have to give. So in order to turn this away from me a bit, let’s get back to Roob, and let’s now celebrate and bask in her sunshine.

*Clicky! …/makes shushing gesture… Pipe down…*

DATELINE: May 25th, 1918. RooBeeDoo was born on the southern slope of Mount Vesuvius in Northern Canuckistan, some time between the hours of 00:00 and 23:59.

Wait…

Vesuvius isn't located in Canada...

is it?

Does Canada even have volcanoes? If not, why not? I wonder if there are any countries that would be willing to loan Canada one of their volcanoes. Anyway, I dunno if she was born on the side of a volcano or not, but I think she’s pretty cool

^The Seekers – Georgy Girl (1967 – Stereo)^

I has question or so that needs asking/answering…

Q: Do I need to spend the entirety of my life worrying about A) where the power is, and B) who has it?

A: ?¿?

Says who?

^This Is Why They NEVER Told You About THIS! It`s Called UFO For A Reason! (2018)^

I’d go to one of these. Prolly for the socializing more than anything.

But thinking in terms of “the higher self”, can we think about practicality for a second?

If some future me showed up in the now, all-knowing and full of smarts about all kinds of things, and I wanted to observe myself in the now blundering around all lost…

Q: What’s the difference between then and now?

A: ???

I see no difference. I think that I know it all now, and I’ll think that I know it all then…so doesn’t that create this paradoxical “banging your head against the wall” type situation? Why would I tell myself, not to be myself.

Seems...destructive. 

Almost like, the more my future self told me, the more that future self would start to get it wrong. I would assume that my future self would begin to change as I changed, and eventually, neither of us would exist. Like some weird resonance trying to find itself within an otherwise structured chorus. Of course, this assumes some linear structuring within time.

Which...no evidence at ALL for that, eh? 

Just thinking that at some point, a future self and past self would be equally lost when encountering each other at a single point in time.

^Muzzy – Play (ft. UK:ID)^

America was once called the land of opportunity. A land flowing with milk and honey, and virtually limitless resources. A place where infinite infinities abound. Many have stood and marveled in awe at this land…

and yet...

we appear to be having an identity crisis? Too much of what we don’t want, and not enough of what we do want?

Q: Isn’t that the same thing?

A: ???

Either way, sounds like a lot.

^Yello – To The Sea (Long Version)^

The contents appear to be able to speak for themselves.

The rest is all just fun and games…

^Greg Kihn Band ‎- The Breakup Song – FULL LENGTH VERSION^

Anyone know what this section was/is supposed to be about?

Something of substance was supposed to go here, but I cannot recall what it was.

^Zebra – Who’s behind the door?^

I need a car. Anyone got a spare car they aren't using?

^The Columbia River Gorge’s abandoned car problem^

Ever heard of a “fatberg” before?

Fatberg

Welp…now you have.

^Fat Boys – Human Beat Box^

Tonight, been watching some videos of the more arcane mechanics of The Universe. Namely, drains. Plumbing. Pipes and piping. The things that cause these drains to become clogged/stop working, and the people who show up to get them flowing again.

It's a nasty job. 

Completely repulsive in many respects. Pee, poo, food, grease, puke, toilet paper, tampons, roaches, rats, and all kinds of creepy-crawlies that you can see, and many creepy-crawlies that you cannot see.

Q: Has anyone taken the time to sit down with Sophia and explain the finer points of human digestion and/or public waterworks?

A: Who the fuck is Sophia?

Sophia is sum gal.

Sophia (Robot)

If you cannot understand the love that it takes, to get your entire body completely immersed in human waste(s), all so that someone else can flush their toilets and run their faucets? Yeah…I think your bots are going to have difficulty understanding a lot of things.

^Digital Underground – Humpty Dance (Music Video)^

Watching all of these plumbing vids, and seeing swirlies of all kinds, got me to thinking about the two things that one must know in order to be a plumber…

Supposedly, that’s all you need to know. I guess the rest, you just have to kinda…

wing it.

^The Monkees ~ The Last Train To Clarksville (HQ)^

I wonder how many “51” references there are in this particular post?

I think there are references to a certain year too.

Can’t be sure tho.

^THE LUYAS ‘Fifty Fifty’ [OFFICIAL VIDEO]^

If you want to see a great example of how legal systems are justified and established?

Look no further.

It was the pic that got me. Mainly because this is the first really inflammatory political cartoon that I’ve seen in a very long time. There is no one that this cartoon does not denigrate. It casts all as “poor”. Poor morals, poor timing, poor judgement, poor rationale, poor planning…it just flat don’t give a fuck.

No fucks given. 

Not to mention that everyone depicted is looking in, out, or away in some form or fashion. Lots of veils. So what about the cartoonist? This cartoon smacks of an “editor-in-chief” idea. Something some EIC dreamed up, told the cartoonist what they wanted, and the cartoonist drew it. I could be wrong on that.

/shrug

^The Tubes – Talk to Ya Later (HQ)^

What was the business about legal systems being justified/established/created? Welp, calling for the dissolution of an organization, while simultaneously calling for the criminal conviction of it’s members, sounds to me like what Set did to Osiris. Killed him, then convicted his members…sorta. You can draw your own conclusions about that story.

/shrug 

But anyway, yeah, same thing…sorta. Killing and chopping up the established and well-formed. Creating chaos out of order, all to make a point. What’s the point? I dunno. Maybe someone was being ignored. Maybe someone was doing something they weren’t supposed to be doing. Maybe all that and more.

But thinking more in legalistic terms, a war machine seeks enemies to fight. If you are capable of being or becoming ill/diseased, deformed, bent, broken, or anything similar, then yeah, you are an enemy of The WHO.

Not the band, the group. 

Confusing thought to ponder, eh? The difference between a group and a band? I guess that’s the difference between war(s) and battle(s). The difference between battle(s) and combat(s). Just seems to me that the very thing the Tweeter was calling for, was the very thing that can and will legitimize the organization and people they want to see destroyed.

Q: What kills the war machine?

A: Nothing kills it. But it will sometimes sit idle and rusty until someone stumbles across it and gives it a shine.

^Magic Bus The Who ( HQ sound )^

It’s suspect – the tweet – calling for dissolution and conviction. But only because you are using the very tools that make the war machine go.

^The Smithereens-A Girl Like You^

Someone made a tweet recently. I’m paraphrasing the contents, but it was basically…

“I am a complete person, and I don’t need anyone else to make me whole”

…or something like that. I could prolly find the tweet if I wanted, but to what end?

Of course you are complete. There’s nothing wrong with you, and even if there was something wrong with you, it’s prolly nothing that can’t be solved with a topical ointment or some tweezers. Like say…that one weird eyebrow hair that is growing all screwy above your left eye. I can’t stop staring at it.

^Cream – I Feel Free^

OH HEY!!! I attended my first ever Live Stream a coupla nights ago!!!

Livestream

Live Streaming

Some fuck on Twitter tweeted that there was a live stream going on, so, I went. I sat for about an hour, doing something I had never done before, with a bunch of people that I didn’t know, and watching them play a video game that I’d never even heard of. I even hopped on their Discord channel and chatted with them a bit. Being on Discord kinda fucked up the audio of the live stream video, so it took me a second to realize I needed to mute the audio on the video stream, but I figured it out eventually.

Dying Light

OH COOL!!!

The Cult Of Snax Noodle

Just looked up the channel, and there’s a vid of the stream. It looks like they’d already been streaming for about 23 minutes when I got there, and I doubt you want to watch 3 hours and 23 minutes of a pack of nerds playing a video game, but…here it is if you do.

^Dying Light & Dead by Daylight double stream 23/5/18^

What does it take to create a new category? Does it depend on what we are talking about? Do I even need to know what I am talking about? Or do I only need to know what you are talking about. I’m just sitting here wondering who these people are. Yeah…THOSE people. Who are they? What are they doing in that job? How’d they get it? Who hired them? Who hired them that hired them? How do we uproot these worthless, self-serving, fuckfaces?

Careers at WHO

They seem to be hiring.

Knock yourself out.

What do you do with all these people once you’ve gotten them fired, convicted, or whatever? Public housing? Public employment? Public assistance(s) of all kinds? If that and those are the case(s), wouldn’t it have been better to just have left them where they were?
