Same diva

Just another group of young people making music together. Beautiful music.

Princess Collector

Laugh if you must, but this is a mint collection. Worth thousands. See that Snow White throw rug in the lower right? Big money on the Disney Princess market.

Come Together

One day soon enough we'll be down to a nice and proper small number of global megacorps who in turn will run many brands and have excellent global brand strategies. Perhaps one day the end result of Capitalism will come upon us as if from on high, GlobalMegaCorp, in charge of, everything. But still with excellent branding.

Let us keep shopping to bring forth this Capitalist utopia.

MciSerf

The American pledge gesture. All nationalistic hand gestures are fascist. As are corporate gestures.

Everything's fascist these days, because we're fascist, for the most part.

First Bub

What will be said of First Bub Billy C? First Bub of raising heck, gettin' randy, and scratchy, and otherwise dudey, yah? It's historic.

I mean, c'mon! Who could pander more?!

Everyone's a Winnah!

Don't let the awesomeness blind you - Obama is incredible beyond words. Look at the kids all captivated!

Poor bears, so uninformed. Listen - are you a millionaire? Do you have industrial concerns? No? Then don't vote Republican, for any reason.

Diligent (Sponsored By)

This photo has been begging to join our blog, for years now. Look at the irony, it said! Finally, I agree. But only ironically.

From a certain point of view

The Devil's Ring. Not as pretty as advertised.

You've been swimming in lies since the day you were born, no fault of your own.

Like the Arabian Batman.

A new light upon the world.

Even more cat stuff for-from the Internet

Ceiling Cat and Basement Cat wage their eternal battle, but what of Fridge Cat? And look at all that beer!

Yo, Pussy. Or Ms. Tabby, if you're nasty. I heard the Intertubes likes cat stuff. So here's some more cool cat stuff for your cat approval.

You ever see a picture of a cat being held by monkey wherein the cat is not totally chill? Exactly. Think about it.

Cats love all life equally, except for things slightly larger than them, and everything smaller. Then it's claws of death.

Not a shop. Cats are natural born killers and are on a genocide campaign across the world against birds. And bugs.

And rodents and bunnies and chipmunks and like I said, everything smaller or just about the same size. They're the terminators of the mammal world - all cats. Like land sharks.

Can you imagine a Catnado? We'd all be crying blood, if not already bleeding out entirely.

Cats! The frisky, fuzzy, purring widdle fluffballs of DEATH.

A Polite Doom

Look how polite everyone was back in Olden Tymes! Also, I'm sure I've said this before, but I was a voracious reader of comic books as a lad, and I learned a ton of words from them - I'd go to the dictionary all the time as a ten year old. And so I say, parents! If your kid is reading comic books, be of good cheer, for they are reading. And reading is fundamental.

Also, just as a taste of how crazy we as a country got after 9/11, here's a panel showing Dr. Doom's response:

Sure, he's tried to take over the world multiple times and killed lots of innocents himself, but America got attacked that day! Even Super Villains cried.

Hipster World

Yeah, man, I was into Hitler way before he tried to take on the world and kill everyone. Back when he was just a struggling artist, working beer halls. Man.

A real store in India. Looks trey hip.

Tangentially,

The John Galt store in LA.

Memes Obliterated

As I've said before, the swastika was widely used as a good luck symbol for thousands of years, prior to the NAZI's.

But due to horrors of the NAZIs, swastikas have been removed from all public use, save the fevered hatreds of Neo-NAZIs, Skinheads, and pissed off teens looking for attention. It's become verboten, like many other NAZI symbols (the Hitler stache, for example).

It's remarkable to consider - in the span of ten years or so, a symbol that was used worldwide for tens of thousands of years was removed from use. Obliterated. A meme created by ancient mankind - the swastika is one of the oldest human symbols, up there with the circle, square, the line, and the triangle - gone in the blink of an eye.

Consider this when looking at our culture, our society, our world. What might seem timeless can be changed in an instant. There's no such thing as permanence.  There's also no such thing as objective meaning.

Coke and a Smile

For real - the artist obtains an actual neolithic vase and paints Coca Cola logos on them. Read about Al Weiwei here. This is a genuinely provoking piece of art for me, as 1. It's a Neolithic vase! They don't grow on trees. But 2. I get it, and it works. It's stunning.

That kind of reaction is specific to art, and is one of its chief powers. At the same time, it's like saying one is against murder, and so committing the worst murder you can think of to show how bad murder is. Don't murder, kids!

Nuts.

Too Late

Alas, it is far too late in this cycle to do anything real against these global beasts of money and power - American companies spread across the globe, fattening and suckling impressionable youths at the teat of "whatever you want, whatever you can dream". Or fry.

Hollywood, Madison Avenue, Silicon Valley, flooding the world with America, the empire that need not conquer you militarily to rule you, as you'll queue up for the chance.

America! Buy it or leave it!

iClothes

So, I guess this was a thing?

Ah, the 1980's. In retrospect, not that far removed from the late 60's/early 70's, thus, the weird fashions. Hippie sensibility fused with Mall culture.

Who the hell would wear computer clothes in the 80's? No one, I assume, except these models and a few fat proto-nerds. I'd rock a "Wang" T-Shirt, though, I suppose.

Be pretty Hipster to wear some of these Apple clothes today, walking into an Apple store, rocking the Genius Bar.

Achtung Intertube

HEY YOU COMRADES! Listen up:

The Office of Defense Health and Welfare has an important message.

Insanity can strike anyone, anywhere. Also, art can arise any where, any way.

Yeah, man.

CONFORM CONSUME OBEY

From the 1988 classic "They Live". Great movie, you should totally stay in and snuggle up on the couch and watch it.  Or better yet

TV in bed is the best. Why ever get out of bed, really? Oh yes, work.

But hey at least the shopping is good downtown.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise: Selling out is the best!

Beck Piss Anti-Christ

As we all suspected, Soros is the source of all that is Fallen in this sad world. Preach it, Brother Beck! But alas, you too are suffering mightily under the evil of the Anti-Christ among us, and have been banished from Fox, long gone from CNN (Yeah, Beck used to be on CNN Headline News. Go imagine that time. Remember, and shudder.), now to wander the lonely roads of podcasts and secret cable channels. Woe! America read your chalkboard, and sent you packing.

In the depths of your desolation, look how your chalkboard has grown! So complicated and interconnected! It makes dumb people feel smart - seriously. Like they're in college. Not joking.

But what's that?! A mason jar of Glenn Beck's piss? Is he selling it? Is it a purification method to rid the body of fluoride?

Nah, man. It's art. Beck's Piss Anti-Christ. That's Barack Obama in there, you see. It's a three-fer in terms of symbology.

Buy gold, ammo, and bread machines also too.

Capitalism, Comrade

America being America, of course, we stopped paying attention to Russia once the Cold War ended. Let me summarize what's happened since: Near chaos. Oligarchs seized control of the country, and robbed the country blind. Average life expectancy for men has plummeted into the mid-50's. Alcoholism is widespread. Gang and terrorism based violence is endemic and brutal. Putin runs a charade of democracy. And yet! Glimmers of hope appear. There's a vibrant music scene. There are many internet geniuses. And they get more Westernized by the year.

Here we see a Moscow club with a minimum breast size limit for female guests. Too small, and you don't get in.

Bigtime lawsuit in America. Free wheeling capitalism in Russia. Here's a prediction for 2013! Wingnuts will start hailing Russian freedoms as example of what's wrong with America.

They love Oligarchy, after all.

Iz teh Prezident LOL

Is true. Not sure what kind of vote movement the Prez got through such an act, but it can't hurt. Not like the Repukes could make anything of it, being retarded.
