Repost Apropos

Fans of the blog will note this is a repost. To my shame. But times being what time they are, well, you know how it is. We make due with what we've got.

Dialectic ahoy!

America: Fuck Yeah

We lead the known worlds in action movie stars.

America post 9/11

It's a metaphor.

Joyce

Joyce.




Funny album covers is a particularly target rich subject, so I shan't overdwell on the matter, but I love this one specifically for the perfect distallation of a late 70's/early 80's fashion. The perm. Especially the perm. The big glasses, big earrings, terrible clothes and colors, and just utter lack of taste. It's marvelous. What the hell were people thinking?

Thin Blue Line

Thank you for your service, Mr. Police Man.

Implicit Patriot

Can you judge a book by its cover?

Consider in this case the cover is a Waifu pillow surrounded by dozens of high powered guns.

Nothing troubling about this, right?

Just Amendments 1 & 2 brah.

End of Empire

No Empire has ended by conquest. Rather, they all fall from within, their very institutions rotted and filled with poison. Knowing this and acting with such knowledge could prolong an empire a great deal, but even it would not be immune to institutional infection.

Knowing this, you can consult for the Empire and make a lot of money.

Mirrors

All your favorites, under a minute or less!

Savings are yours if you're saved. Are you saved?

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.

Fresh Blood

Surely the loss of a few lives is small recompense for higher civilization...

I pledge

My pledge to you, dear reader, is to always mock flags. I get their symbolic function, but I laugh at it. Also, despair. Flags are tribe colors to designate sides, both to unite and divide. When you "pledge allegiance" you are of course proclaiming fealty to the political power that uses the flag as its tribe symbol. I pledge allegiance to all life, to the Universe as a whole, so what does a flag matter to me? Or, for that matter, what does the Flag Code matter to any Patriot? Violation, above. Violation, below.

So many Flag Code violations in today's American Empire.

lol america.

Mecca Vegas

Mecca in 1917. A world ago, as that world was directly connected to 2000 years and more of history. Whereas what's happened since is brand new.

Decadence. Luxurious wealth. Super technology. Welcome to Mecca 2013.

I'm sure the construction you see on the right has come far closer to completion since this picture was taken, if you can imagine it - another gaudy tower rising high in the sky.

There's malls in that big building, by the way. Shopping, at Mecca.

Look upon my works

Consider how long and difficult it was to build this prohibition tower. All so other people didn't have fun.

Pyramid Power

I ironically agree with all of this save for the Queen of England at the top. C'mon! Rupert Murdoch has more pull than the Queen of England for crikey's sake.

Pretty much true, sorry if that offends your bourgeois sensibilities.

This is actual fact, not conjecture. For America - land of the free.

Begging To Climb

It's an understandable urge, if you're not afraid of heights: To climb a prominent landmark. Back in flapper days I'm sure this was cool, but today?

Not cool!

I mean, yeah, it's cool, but NOT COOL! Every single person who climbs the pyramids damages them to some degree - it cannot be avoided. Since they are a treasure beyond price, they must be protected for the future.

Speaking of our glorious future, did you hear about the Mayan temple that got torn down for rocks to use in a new road?

Save our temples!

An even newer world

Consider it, Wingnuts. Hillary gets elected in 2016, and wins re-election in 2020. That would represent 16 years in a row of Democratic rule, and if we can't crush the Repukes in that timeframe, than shame on us. Till then, some Hill shots:

Obama shot, actually. Sorry, Hills. Just want all them PUMA's to remember that Barack is our President.

Hillary and Barry, re-making world diplomacy. Notice how calmer the world seems lately, compared to 2000-2008?

Another's Flag

I believe in these things, somewhat truly: The United Nations - shouldn't we all belong to the same nation? We're all the same people, let's organize and conquer Mars.

Control the water, control the planet.

Redshirt originals all, yeah.

Another's Newscaster

Flat Stanley is giving the sports from a stump in the middle of my frozen stream. Here's the rest of the winter news to come:

Both pics redshirt originals, unlike most pictures posted here.

Rebel Patriots

Real Americans support the Confederacy.

Pure Americans support the Confederacy.

There's no irony south of the imaginary Mason Dixon line.
