Yahweh, Allah, Jesus, Buddha sound exactly the same as Nieman Marcus, Rolls-Royce, Kardashian, and Shasta Cola to me.

… I dont buy it.

I really am a spiritual person, I just don’t believe in any gods. I read all the books, disagreed with them greatly… lather, rinse, repent).

I like Silap Inua, the idea that the cosmos and our human consciousness shift in similar tides.

That makes humanistic and scientific sense to me.

We are “elevated and enlightened apes” our closest cousins are bonobos and chimpanzees.

I don’t see any shame in apehood.

You’re not crazy, you’re just looking for familiarity, and that’s SOOO human.

I philosophically and epistemologically disagree with the idea that humans are in any way separate from the animal kingdom.

Animalia… chordata… mammalia…

Also, Therian has a specific meaning that describes procreation. Not identity.

Marsupials are metatheria, eutherians produce placentas…

Fun fact, Paul Simon (happy bday, I guess) makes six figures a year from Berklee College of Music’s board of trustees fund, and has never done a single fucking thing for the school.

That shit is why I don’t want to pay my student loans.

I expect it to go towards students, not celebrity emoluments

Silly me, I got my Therians and Raelians mixed.

Apparently Therians think they themselves are not human. Raelians think everyone who isn’t them is non-human, and a political threat.

Both of these camps are full of crazies.

Humans ARE animals.

That’s why furries are redundant and absurd.

Ending your very serious heartbroken punk song with “Be Kind To Your Webfooted Friends” is the kind of thing that should be in more music.

And that Finale is pure Hale & Pace.

Oi… leftists…

Maybe DON’T become nazis by wishing literal MEASLES AND SMALLPOX on innocent children of MAGA parents.

I don’t want MAGA to win ANYthing, but WE DO NOT THROW CHILDREN UNDER BUSES FOR CHEAP POLITICAL POINTS.

I’m obviously against AI in Music (hence the name, nobody else can use it) BUT…

Whoever made “I Glued My Balls to My Butthole Again” is doing the most with it.

Comedy gold.

“Again.” Pure genius.

It’s wrong to use the name “Pee Wee German” to describe Stephen Miller.

Paul Reubens was a counterculture art icon who loved his queer theatre community and never once harmed a child, animal, innocent adult—in his life.

I can’t think of a worse name for Stephen Miller than Stephen Miller.

My personality is somewhere between these three characters at any given time.

Mostly Alyssa.

The major difference between Trump and Caligula is I’ve touched myself to Caligula. 😎

I’m thinking about trading in my two vintage guitars for something more functional.

I just want enough to get a Godin XTSA and a midi processor.

Maybe I can get $1200 for a 1981 Ibanez and a 1994 Strat, both playable—I just hate them.

I’m sure we could track our family connection. I have a ton of relatives in Texas and Oklahoma.

Flaky flan? No thanks.

Dudes on dating apps…

I’m sorry…

Balaclavas get a swipe left.

I’m not THAT much of hybristophile.

(Although Bonnie Parker was my cousin and Clyde was NOT a looker.)

Such a fun night.

Robert Randolph opened, and then George’s granddaughter came out and sang “Somethin’ Stank (And I Want Some)” as the entire House of Blues filled with THC.

I saw George Clinton and P-Funk in Boston and I stood next took two girls who were dancing, totally bottomless.

That’s a much funner game for everyone.

Whoever suggested you use Sophie’s music in your pro-trans ad deserves a raise.

I’m good for my tax responsibility.

Go back to the first thing…

Pink Pony Club is not a good song.

And “Hot to Go” doesn’t make any fuckin’ sense.
