I saw them in the early 2000s. It was a hell of a fun show.

I think I'm going to start posting the most insane bullshit and then ending with "Facts". ProTip: Saying, "Facts" doesn't mean your facts aren't bullshit.

She had a way with words. One of her favorite sayings was, "Just like a good push-up bra, you're making #mountains out of molehills". #vss365

Out there, through the Plains of Despair, past the #Mountains of Madness, and across the Ocean of Weirdness, upon the Beach of Peculiarity lies the Scepter of Unholy Power. Trust me, it ain't worth the trip. But I did get a cool T-shirt at the Gift Shop of Abandonment. #vss365

It's hard to keep your head straight when every day you're force-fed a #cloud of lies meant to make you question reality. #vss365

There is no #cloud. It's just someone else's computer. #vss365

#Bequest sounds nice and formal, like it should only be written on parchment with a quill and the blood of a virgin. Bequeath sounds like something your body does after you eat too much Taco Bell. #vss365

Just so everyone's aware, upon my death, disappearance into the nether realms, or descent into jibbering madness, I #bequest my collection of dangerous arcane texts to whoever they'll do the most damage to. #vss365

Eric Lahti @ericlahti.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I think at this point, everyone is just looking for a #reprieve from the madness and endless chicanery. Like, just leave us the hell alone, you jackasses. #vss365

Funny how water and fire can both #purify; it's just a matter of how bad things have gotten. Could be a dunk in a river or matches and a gallon of gas #vss365

Eric Lahti @ericlahti.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

In this town, the rain didn't #purify us. It exposed us. Washed away the facade and revealed the scars and cigarette burns of life in a city that no longer cared for us. #vss365

We should change the past tense of lose to losed instead of lost. That way, we could tell people, "You snoozed, you losed."

Would popping someone in the beak because you're starving and they're annoying the shit out of you be considered a #hunger strike? #vss365

"When you're feeling low and the #hunger strikes, reach for all new Crack Snikkers, the only candy bar fortified with the delicious power of crack. Keep the momentum going and save the day!" #vss365

Find your #passion and let it consume you from the inside out. Our final stop has always been madness, you might as well make the trip fun. #vss365

You are eating a fruit filled with #passion. A passionfruit, if you will. The passion it unlocks isn't of the body, but of the mind. A hand-scrawled sign out front: Magic fruit and mushrooms. Welcome to the best fruit stand in America. #vss365

Someday, we'll #embark on our final adventure. You never know which will be the last, so make each one count. #vss365

Eric Lahti @ericlahti.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Grab your stuff and we'll #embark on an adventure! It may just be to the thrift store, but as long as we're together it will fun. #vss365

Okay, who opened the third seal?

Remember when "Of the people, by the people, for the people" meant something?

Sometime in the future, when these #stormy times have come to an end, we'll all look back on these days and say, "What the fuck were we thinking?" #vss365

Eric Lahti @ericlahti.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

I hate it when my mind is filled with #stormy thoughts, black clouds punctuated by bursts of worry and illuminated by flashes of panic. And then, a flash of light cuts through the maelstrom, saying, "Go play a video game and you'll feel better." #vss365

Lol. I'm a bit ashamed to admit it took me a sec to get the joke.

The library was where I taught myself how to program.

According to the 1981 Jones accords, explorers are no longer required to own a pith helmet or a safari jacket, so feel free to #explore the world in whatever attire works best for you. #vss365

Do you know what would help right now? Emotional support pizza. You're welcome.

Looking back, I have to wonder how we managed to #sustain ourselves on bowls of crunchy chemicals, sugar, and milk. Sure, it was part of a nutritious breakfast, but it was the part you could go without. #vss365

#Commence. Huh. Commence, commence, commence... What kind of funny can I make with commence? Maybe it's too early and I'm still reeling from the concert last night... Oh, well, better get the day started. #vss365
