Signal Boost for a Friend in Need and Deed

You all have seen the darling Aeryl hereabouts. If someone is rambling on about hot boys and why they’re aren’t more stoner chick movies, that would be me and Aeryl. What you all don’t know is that she played comment moderator for the last month or so pre- internets, that she’s shipping me a big ol’ box of tees and books and stuff for the Kid cause he’s outgrown all his.

While trying to do the right thing, i/e not risk death because of OSHA violations, Aeryl’s sig nif got fired. And of course they are fucking him out of his unemployment. So things are more than a bit tight for the Aeryl family. If you can, throw her some ducketts.

Watch it here!

Corporations are to Society at large what MRA’s are to exes and offspring. They spend a hole fuck of a lot of time whining endlessly about how unfair the system is to them because they have to pay all this money, wah wah wah. But the reality is they aren’t paying taxes, just like MRA’s aren’t paying child support.

The patriarchy (of which capitalism is abso-fucking-lutely a part of) has NO NEW TRICKS. Every argument is the same tired lie its spouted somewhere else. It keeps beating us not because it is clever and wily, but because it is boring and tedious.

We can’t send the Banksters to jail but we can give a homeless mom 20 years

It’s becoming more obvious to the have-a- littles that it is illegal to be a have-Not. Homelessness and school enrollment are one of the most glaring ways in which poverty is a criminal act. I have the constant fear that my poverty status means that at any moment Kid’s home schooling could be grounds for extra social services scrutiny.

But at least I’m not looking at 20 years in jail for trying to get my Kid an education. A FUcking education! She didn’t causes a global financial melt-down. She didn’t commit an act of violence. She didn’t even Commit the Standard ‘let’s lock up the poor and brown for Self-medicating.’ She just enrolled her kid in the school closest to the homeless shelter they stay at. That’s our lovely justice system for you.

The Great Music Exchange

The loverly Aeryl is burning me some cds and wanted to know what I
like. The Great Ruthzilla has drunkenly proclaimed me the Indy Pop
Queen. It’s true. I love the Decemberists, Death Cab, the Pernice
Brothers, Magnetic Fields, etc. Also bitchy girl’s, pop and otherwise
like Lilly Allen, Kate Nash, M.I.A., Princess Superstar, etc. 70’s
funk and it’s bastard children from curtis Mayfield to Janelle Monet.
Thinky or non-gangstar rap like Blue Scholars and Lyrics Born. And
disco punk (punk you can shake your ass to) like The Clash, The Fall,
Gang of 4, Franz Ferdinand,Gogol Bordello, the Gossip. Oh and I like
some latin stuff like Julietta Venegas and Maria Rita.
I also love hearing shit I haven’t heard before. Surprise me!
