I Know I've Posted This Before…

…and I hate to ruin a good wank pic for ya (because it initially pushed all my buttons in a good way for obvious reasons), but the more I look at it, the more weirdness pops out.

I'm not saying the whole thing was AI generated, but there was certainly Photoshop style AI fill used. I mean, look at the background. Look at his hand. What is that shit? And the way the painting/photo on the wall curves down under his armpit? And what is all that crap immediately under his pit that extends to his thigh? There was either something else there at one point, and whoever removed it really wasn't paying attention to what was generated or the whole thing is generated and whoever posted it figured it was good enough…because it's just fucking weird.

One of the newly-renovated elevators in the parking garage at work. Out of service for the past four months, and this is what we get greeted with when it went back in service a couple weeks ago. I just want to know who the braintrust was that selected white rubber tile for the floor.

Ben said, "It was on sale."

I Can Understand the Resurgence of Vinyl…

…but cassettes are making a comeback? Seriously?

WHY?!

I was chatting with my buddy Ken a couple weeks ago, discussing our audio equipment, and he asked, "What cassette deck do you have these days?"

I told him I didn't have a cassette deck—and in fact hadn't owned one for nearly 20 yearsHe was flabbergasted, just couldn't comprehend how I didn't have one…

MAGA 'Prophet' Warns Of Technologically Advanced 'Mermaids And Water People' In Bonkers Speech

Amanda Grace suggested 'hand to hand combat' with these supposed 'mermaids' who are spreading 'wickedness' at a far-right ReAwaken America event at Trump's Doral Hotel in Miami.

In a bizarre and bewildering display of rhetoric, a speaker at a right-wing conference hosted by one of Trump's properties embarked on an unhinged rant, delving into the realm of highly technological mermaids and water people spreading "wickedness" throughout society.

The peculiar diatribe was delivered by self-proclaimed "Prophet" Amanda Grace during the ReAwaken America event, which attracted a gathering of American far-right and Christian nationalist attendees at the Trump National Doral Hotel in Miami.

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Grace said:

"I have never seen more images of mermaids and water people in my life. That's a division in the kingdom of darkness and they're highly technologically advanced."

"And we have to understand what we're dealing with. And we have to understand the rules of engagement in spiritual warfare. And we are meant for hand-to-hand combat."

"Darkness has completely eclipsed the White House of this nation."

Predictably, the outlandish nature of Grace's remarks triggered a flurry of confusion, mockery, and the proliferation of memes across various online platforms.

The combination of the highly unusual subject matter, coupled with the passionate delivery, contributed to the audience's bewilderment and subsequent online ridicule.

 

Grace is far from the only self-proclaimed religious "prophet" to align themselves with the MAGA movement.

Last year, author and commentator Rachel Hamm—who at the time was vying to become California's next Secretary of State—claimed that her decision to run for office was predicated on her son's miraculous experience meeting Jesus Christ in a closet with a scroll.

Similarly, Julie Green—who runs the Evangelical Julie Green Ministries—has claimed more than once that God will "bring back" former President Donald Trump to the White House without the need for an actual election.

As of this writing, Green's prediction has yet to come to pass.

Good Lord…

Angela Bassett and I are the same age! I need some of that Death Becomes Her elixir that she's obviously gotten hold of!

Speaking of Backrooms…

No, not those backrooms, you silly homosexuals!

These backrooms…

"That is not a fucking person!"

Okay, this series of videos absolutely terrifies me — more than any big budget horror flick in memory.  I still get chills down my spine  even though I know what's coming.

I also asked for "Donald Trump in a Noose" in anticipation of his espionage conviction, but as lovely as the results were, I think posting them might cross the line even for this blog.
