What kind of society do we want to live in? Not this, man.

George McCrae's Rock Your Baby is a perfect song and performance.

Today is a heavy marking day and I am listening to that minidisc set from the Ok Computer era by Radiohead. It has a bunch of studio outtakes and live performances. I love it. The keyboard additions to many of these songs were so call. It's a fantastic document of the band. I am glad they leaked it.

Did you talk about the corruption of the Dodger's ownership?

Our school had both a Moodle and a Blog phase. Fucking Moodle!

I once worked at a university that gutted an entire (very popular and useful) learning center and replaced it with two guys who would teach you how to host blogs. every student had to have a blog. Every single one. Our syllabus had to mention blogs. We had to teach WITH blogs.

I see it differently. For me, reading "The Odyssey" was about the repetition of phrasing like a mantra, like Pilgrim's Progress. Sharp, or even memorable dialogue was not what stood out to me. I should read a recent translation.

At no point have I ever thought "this needs Mel Gibson's input."

This is what is so distressing.

All of Paxton's corruption is weighing on that lazy eye. Drooping, drooping, droop.

Rory, Carville got Democrats elected to the major offices of the country for decades. It's so funny that you think your political acumen approaches his.

Brent @thethirdman3.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Royce has been a true weirdo for years and this was independent of his politics. It speaks really poorly of the state of politics that this person is considered for any position of responsibility.

Aside from the people you are getting to know, what has been your favourite new skill?

"I would like the 'Pinched Glory' robot, please."

Right. At some point the voters have to step up.

Brent @thethirdman3.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Motherfucker, we have a quarter centruty of Left wing horseshit leading to GOP victories that fucked everybody over. Ralph Nader, Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein have role in where we are at, too. I am waiting for *one* DSA victory that flipped a red state, blue.

Brent @thethirdman3.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

I mean, there hasn't been a significant Democratic victory in Texas since Ann Richards in the early 1990's. We haven't had a Democratic Senator since 1993.

Yeah, fuck the teachers and families, right?

Trump may be losing his mental faculties, sense of object permanance and ability to control his bowels, but at least he retains his greed and racism.

Brent @thethirdman3.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Sure, but the DSA (co-chair Megan Romer) calling for the abolition of the Senate, Supreme Court, borders and prisons only serves to keep the fascists- today's GOP- in power. There is no evidence that bringing on further misery to the public brings forth the socialist paradise. Quite the opposite.

Brent @thethirdman3.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Right. You are having a fit. Let it out.

I am American. You are acting childish. If you want to descend into whatever this is, go for it.

No. This is hive mind nonsense.

No, Joe. I think the electorate in Michigan, many of whom likely share, or are related to someone with that accent probably get this use of "cool" equates to "douchebag."

Perfect is the enemy of the good. Jackson (and any non Nazi rapist Democrat) is preferable to Collins.

It's astonishing people touted that line with a former mercenary with an SS tattoo, as well. We live in astonishing times.

Yeesh. The lack of moral seriousness by so many of these people- politicians and journalists (and readers)- is distasteful. Remember what the story was about, people?

Brent @thethirdman3.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

I don't think that's right. There are a lot of good people in Texas and in the reddest states. Are we supposed to let the wolves devour them, too? A lot of people in Texas had the backs of the people displaced by Katrina, remember.
