Living in a golden cage, don't you know, dear worst-reader, has its quirks. It's a shinny place, if you can't guess, yet not shinny enough to hide the excess. Is the gold worth it, you might ask? Oh, the ills of expatriate choices--for those of us born and reared in the privileges of The West--yet …
Network Station Galore In Pine64 Heaven
Subtitle 1: Avoiding, circumventing an industry hell-bent on the grand rip-off? Subtitle 2: In a world of trucks or no trucks, SBC's rule, biatch! If you want to skip all my worst-writing about Apple and Trucks, scroll down to it's a network station galore, baby. To begin this worst-post, dear worst-reader, I have to express …
Hick Fascism Dog Whistle
As suggested earlier, the rise and institutionalisation of the Ronald Reagan political clique, first in California as governor, 1967-1975, and then as U.S. President, 1981-1989, was a major green light for the development of white supremacist groups, from marginal and obscure to mainstream, by the dawn of the twenty-first century. Reagan and his cronies and …
It Takes A Licking And Keeps On…
Subtitle: My friends 2015 MacBook has been through hell. An old friend came by the other day to mooch of an extra bed on his way to a boating thing in Köln. He does that once or thrice a year, don't you know. I mean, wouldn't you? He gets a nice place to sleep (saving …
Sleep of Reason
Thinking too much about my beloved & missed #Americant this morn, dear worst-reader. Thinking about what could lead to the likes of President Stupid and his pee-pee-hair? I mean, is there an essence to it all? Is it that so many compatriots are as stupid as the leaders they elect? That must be the magic-sauce, …
The End Is Not Nigh, It’s Here
You know how you can tell you're already living in end-times? It's easy really. If there's a hint of rational thought in your mind, if you can circumvent for a moment all the BS of religious magic, you should also be able to surmise, well, that the krapp you've allowed to occupy you has also …
Jabberwhorl Cronstadt
There's no such thing as the present. There's a word called Time, but nobody is able to define it. There's a past and there's a future, and Time runs through it like an electric current. The present is an imaginary condition, a dream state... an oxymoron. -Henry Miller, Black Spring, chapter: Jabberwhorl Cronstadt,
The First Soap Opera
Title #2: maybe the founding fathers weren't so special after all As the initial reports of the Broadway Musical Hamilton began to appear on my computer screen a few years back, I found my worst-self getting confused about whether to like it or hate it. Was it the shows immediate success that drove me to …
Party Here, Faction There
Van Buren will be nominated and he will defeat Clay or any other National Republican--no, no, Whig, I must get used to calling them that. How topsy-turvy it is! Those of us who were for the Revolution were Whigs. Those for Britain were Tories. Then there was the fight over the federal Constitution. In our …
Deplorables Are Us
Boy oh boy was Hillary right. Sometimes I wish she'd double-down on it. You know, like President Stupid doubles-down on his krapp. Although I was shocked when Hillary said it, her Deplorables comment from 2016 has lingered with me ever since. Indeed. I hate to love Hillary (as opposed to love to hate her). I'm …
Does The Razor Cut Through It
It was actually Ockham who prepared our minds for this unwelcome (to him) conclusion. He devised a "principle of economy," popularly known as "Ockham's Razor," which relied for its effect on disposing of unnecessary assumptions and accepting the first sufficient explanation or cause. "Do not multiply entities beyond necessity." This principle extends itself. "Everything which …
Not In The Know Of All-Things Worst And Other Dream-Dreams
Disclaimer: NSFW material towards the end of this worst-post. I dreamt of waking in a cold sweat. But then quickly fell asleep again only to dream of a place from twenty years ago where a large blonde woman stands behind me while I sit at a desk attempting to research the hell out of finding …

E-Bikes And The Ageing Killer Pug
Like me, dear worst-reader, Beckett - the killer pug, is getting old. Fortunately I've still got all my front teeth. Most of his front teeth, on the other hand, except for the fangs, had to be removed last year. I mean, have you ever had a look inside a Pugs mouth? What a mess of …
Futility Of Discourse
"He had encouraged him to talk to him, although he had always wondered at a certain incoherence, or rather restlessness in his mind, and could not understand what it was that so continually and insistently worked upon the brain of "the contemplative." They discussed philosophical questions and even how there could have been light on …
Dorothy Just Took A $hit On Her Rainbow
Two newz links below, dear worst-reader, that only worst-writer can make relatable. And trust me. I got this. First. Can you believe a corporation owns a potato? No. Seriously. The vegetable. A corporation owns it. What I worst-mean by owns it is, they literally own the legal rights to everything that makes up that potato. Thank …
