Stray Thoughts

I’m sure you can agree — the world is grossly out of balance. Drastic measures must be taken to realign terrestrial and cosmic forces

Here’s an idea — we sacrifice wealth hoarders to appease the gods who, naturally, reside within volcanoes. The gods get snackish, don’t ya know. They must be fed! You may have read that they nosh on ambrosia and drink nectar.

C’mon! Have you even met the gods? They are not sitting down to snarf some milky chilled fruit salad with a cocktail that only a hummingbird would enjoy. Fuck no!

CLEARLY they’re jonesing for some real junk food. The gods are WAY overdue for some some high caliber crap. You know, the celestial equivalent of loaded nachos, fried mozzarella sticks, deep dish pizza with EVERYTHING. They need to be placated, soothed, and shit before they get cranky and send us another Trump family. Know what I’m saying?

So then — we’ll start the sacrificial snacking with Musk. Up the mountain he goes.

We’ll convince Leon to do a press conference on the edge of Lewotobi Laki-Laki in Indonesia (last volcanic activity June 2-10) and maybe he’ll, ya know, slip (OR, for the greater good of the planet, selflessly jump into the about-to-erupt volcano. //SNORT// yeah, like that would ever happen) thus saving humankind.

Yesterday, for some reason, I was trying to come up with the name of an actress. I was telling Jen some story or another — tring to anyway. The actress’s name fully escaped me. Finally I said, she looked a lot like that woman who played Princess Leia or, ya know, like Carrie Fisher.

Jen gently, slowly, carefully replied, aren’t they the same person?

Wut? (I’m fuckin’ eloquent as shit…I’m tellin’ you!)

I was only remembering Fisher as a writer, script doctor, memoirist and for her not-Leia comedic acting roles. Also as Paul Simon’s partner and second (?) wife about whom he wrote some of his fab songs.

Again, DOH!!!

When asked what was her "best" moment in the Star Wars saga up to this point, Carrie Fisher answered:

“I had a lot of fun killing Jabba the Hutt. They asked me on the day if I wanted to have a stunt double kill Jabba. No! That's the best time I ever had as an actor. And the only reason to go into acting is if you can kill a giant monster

Damn, I miss her.

Something we can all use — it’s the Apocalypse Early Warning System 

A new website tracking private jet movements is drawing attention across aviation and tech circles after its creator claimed spikes in business aviation traffic could serve as an “early warning system” for global catastrophe.

The project, called the Apocalypse Early Warning System, was created by artist and programmer Kyle McDonald. It uses live ADS-B aircraft-tracking data to monitor private jet activity worldwide.

McDonald’s premise is simple — if somewhat tongue-in-cheek. When billionaires, political insiders, or corporate elites suddenly begin leaving major cities en masse aboard private aircraft, the website assumes something serious may be about to happen. (source) 

Fascinating.

There’s an 80% chance of rain in DC tonight and a 55% chance of thunderstorms. IF the thunder god exists he could do the world the most awesomest kindness. I only mention it, Thor, but the event starts at noon 8pm eastern standard time. K?
