now that were making america great again, lets take a ride into the yester-years of our old west… where body odors where a novelty, and rubber garments weren’t considered S&M but rather “flesh reducing” garments. check out punk rock bitch the official blog of blogs. by bb

tobias wong’s witty cooking mittens for final home
i mean who doesn’t cook and smoke at the same time?
and no tobias did not die from smoking… *that said smoking does kill – we have all stopped smoking and you should too!
to be honest i cant remember if these were actually “cooking mittens” or just cold weather mitts… but i remember seeing these at final home and thinking they were hilarious. but not $300 hilarious. they were made of shinny porous material which made me think they were heat-safe, cooking gloves, but it could be that they were made of rain jacket material also! in any case very funny – very cool. we miss you tobias… you shouldn’t have taken yourself out like that. by ac
ardman creature comforts: oldie but goodie
the voices are real people interviewed (man on the street style) then animated to a specific animal delivering brilliance in comedy
the original creature comforts (short film) was five minutes and a few seconds long and was conceived and directed by nick park and produced by aardman animations, featuring the voices of british non-actors in the same vein as the “man on the street” vox pop interviews. it was produced as part of a series called lip synch for BBC channel 4. the film won nick park the academy award for best animated short film in 1991.
the film shows various animals in a zoo being interviewed about their living conditions. these include a family of polar bears, tracey, a depressed female gorilla, a brazilian puma, a maternal brown four-eyed opossum, and a hippopotamus calf who complain about the cold weather, the poor quality of their enclosures and the lack of space and freedom. by cm

“…i mention my girls already they’re my they’re my stepdaughters i’m a stepdad stepdad took over the lease on a couple of girls few years back. thank you very much other other step parents here any other broken homes? few? go ahead you were able to come out where’s the where’s the step that out somebody raise your hand your stepdad right back there thing i said raise your hand you clap i mean yeah still appreciate. how many stuff kids you have sir one grand you are you and your wife gonna have more do you think got one on the way congratulations good for you is that amazing it’s amazing. i think that’s fun i would love to have more — i would love to have more enough i would probably love him more than the old ones do you think that that would be true i mean probably. of course not on purpose, of course you would do your best to love them exactly the same. and they would never even know unless they watch this special.
i would do my best to love them exactly the same we’re just admitting that i’m a human and there’s a small chance that i would love the new ones more and there’s nothing that i could do about it. and for those of you looking at me being judgmental right now, why don’t you pretend for a moment do you spent your whole life wanting to have a boat you wanted to grow up and be a boat owner and then one year you married someone the had a boat it was everything you thought it was gonna be when you loved that boat and you helped take care of it and then the next year you made your own boat using nothing by your genitals. which one are you gonna be more excited about? it’s all i’m trying to say it’s not i don’t i don’t even think it makes you a bad person i think is just a pride of workmanship, i think.” enjoy by sv
if you were told this is a one sided fight, don’t shoot john oliver, hes only telling the truth.
palestinians live in 2 areas one is gaza and the other the west bank, both are under the israeli thumb – by now we all now know and have seen how life in gaza is. here’s how the “better behaved – lucky palestinians” live in the west bank. click here if vid is missing
ben & jerrys founders : ben cohen and jerry greenfield stopped the sale of their ice cream in the israeli occupied territories before unilever changed that
john oliver discusses how the west bank settlements (israeli enclaves in palestinian west bank area) came to be, what their presence there means for everyone in the region, and why the weight of the world rests squarely on the shoulders of ben & jerry’s. good one john. by xy

it’s important to take stock of this past year. a lot happened. here at tomorrow started i’ve taken it upon myself to present some of the more important and notable moments of the year 2023.
good riddance, as they say ( i quite liked it personally )
we rekindled our intimacy with ourselves after a difficult few years
we made time to be with each other
but also look after our needs
there were things none of us had ever seen, we all had to look
some of us opened our homes (and hearts) to newcomers
we took our physical health very seriously
and when that didn’t work, we minded our mental well-being
but more than anything, we had a blast!
hey – see you next year 😉 by lsd
carry into the future something that lasts. like accidents, disasters, and cruelty do.
there too – i think about lean-ness and efficiency. desire to cut down ever-further toward a solid hardened state. confusing venture, no less impossible and vile.
little left but to take away is an irredeemable position. i wish no more. i take all. once it is mine. i surely dream.
they were just constantly flying in circles.
constantly flying in huge circles.
(laurie anderson, the beginning of memory)
what about the ten thousand year clock, or the pyramids of germany, the practice of caving. these mass projects of human dominance, in which we take into the unknown (profound or unfounded) the meager seed of our ingenuity. keep mine my own. let it be said that i was there once. such and such. as it were.
if we fit everyone in – just how much could we think, together? the box in the home becomes the home. and what if we stopped living entirely? i was recently told about tangential metamorphosis – how i could no longer be human only without transformation – a neutered permanent alter-state. conniptive reluctance. trespassing human crowding by removing ourselves from humanity.
and if it all went ahead, and then came to an end? do we have the chance to really see it through? lines drawn like aching joints do. by lsd
