Pseudo-Review: The Planet Of The Humans Pros: this is a somewhat informative--if you're uninformed--documentary with a well branded name connected to it. Cons: #OKBoomer white men1 who are so bored with life that they somehow find a way to make half-decent documentary movies but what they really need to do is step aside and help … Continue reading Planet Of The Free To Be Stupid

Summary Demise
Pseudo-Review: Hiding In Plain Sight by Sarah Kendzior. Cliffsnotes, dear worst-reader. Maybe that's the ticket to understanding what happened to my beloved & missed #Americant since the advent of political stupidity and the election of a two-bit actor for president--oh so many years ago. But enough re-hashing of the good'ole days, eh. Haven't we all … Continue reading Summary Demise
Zombie Virus Or Just A Bad Flu
Pseudo-review: World War Z by Max Brooks Note: To skip all the/my worst-writing, the actual pseudo-review of this book is just a scroll or two or thrice downwards. And now... Not sure if this makes since, dear worst-reader. So I appreciate you indulging me. Here's a worst-writer fact for ya: I was never, ever afraid … Continue reading Zombie Virus Or Just A Bad Flu
Helmet, Helmut And Yo-Yo
Secondary title: Pseudo-Review of the Abus Hyban bike helmet with visor. Perhaps some of you are too young to know. So allow worst-writer to explain yet another worst-title. In the movie Night On Earth by Jim Jarmusch a really bad taxi driver from the (then) recent former East Germany picks up a New Yorker in … Continue reading Helmet, Helmut And Yo-Yo
“Dantons Tod” And No Gilets Jaunes?
Get this, dear worst-reader. While I was walking through its front doors, which seem to be in a perpetual state of renovation, discard and renewal for the last couple of years, my better half asked me when was the last time I saw a play at the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus. Wow, I thought. It has to … Continue reading “Dantons Tod” And No Gilets Jaunes?
Pods, Ears, Tech Mediocre Galore
Pseudo-review of Soundcore earbuds, baby. Consuming to survive, dear worst-reader. How's it going for you? Otherwise, I bought these earbuds a few months back while you-know-who/what online store had a sale. Got them for half-price, too, don't you know. But I suppose I should also give credit where it's due regarding how I bought something … Continue reading Pods, Ears, Tech Mediocre Galore
Pseudo-Review: R&M Charger GX 9000km, Sprained Shoulder, Battery Degradation
2019 has been a bad year, dear fellow worst-rider. Bad because, well, I've not been riding much this year. Usually, within a half-year, I can easily ride for a 1000km or more. Are things starting to wane in my e-bike joy? Or maybe it's the weather? Yeah, blame it on the weather--and never mention all … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: R&M Charger GX 9000km, Sprained Shoulder, Battery Degradation
Pseudo-Review: To Sit Or To Stand
Consumed-to-survive me one of them fancy-pants Ikea electric adjustable desks a few months back, dear worst-reader. And don't you know, it's a pretty half-decent, fairly useable thing--if you need/should stand while worst-writing. Luckily for worst-moi, as you can see in the pic above, the smallest version of the desk fits perfectly into the only remaining … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: To Sit Or To Stand
Please, No More Hair Trimmers And No More Examples Of #Americant Losing Its $hit
Am I on my last hair trimmer, dear worst-reader? At least I hope I'm on my last one. It's a thing I'm going through right now, don't you know, in this--the $hit$how that is consume-to-survive. The idear is the following: Pay a little bit more now in the hopes that--if there is such a thing … Continue reading Please, No More Hair Trimmers And No More Examples Of #Americant Losing Its $hit
Pseudo-Review: Weber Genesis E330 Five Years And Counting
Subtitle: How I got my first brisket on At last count, dear worst-reader, I think my Weber Grill is five years old. It might be six or even six and half but it's definitely not seven or even four. Go figure, I lost the purchase receipt. It is said that these über expensive grills are … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: Weber Genesis E330 Five Years And Counting
Pseudo-Review: DietPi And RockPro64
Subtitle: Avoiding monolithic-monopoly personal computing on the cheap? Follow-up is here. Note on text: if you want to skip all my worst-writing, just scroll down to the The Pseudo Review. As noted here, I'm not a NAS fan. The problem with not being a NAS fan is that one may still require some form … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: DietPi And RockPro64
Pseudo-Review- Birkenstock And The Happy Foot
Note on the pics. The Birkenstock shoe (left foot) is still in what I consider to be its break-in period. They're only about ten days old. Note the suede sole footbed insert. The sandal (right foot) is broke-in and is probably four months old. The only issue I'm facing with the sandals is that I've run out … Continue reading Pseudo-Review- Birkenstock And The Happy Foot
How Much You Don’t Know Can Hurt You (Deep Inside) Forever
Disclaimer: This is not a pseudo-review of the movie The Butler and there is only one slight spoiler. My son asked me the other week if I had seen the movie The Butler. I told him I had not. When I asked if he'd seen it, to my surprise he said he had and then … Continue reading How Much You Don’t Know Can Hurt You (Deep Inside) Forever
Pseudo-Review #7- Charger GX At 6,000km, Winter Is Coming
Psuedo-Subtitle: The good, the bad, and not much to report. Here is a tag-link to all my e-bike posts. Let us begin, dear worst-rider, with the truth. The truth is, as of the writing of this worst-post, I'm surpassing 6500km in the next day or three. With that in mind, there is no need to … Continue reading Pseudo-Review #7- Charger GX At 6,000km, Winter Is Coming
Apple v Pi Or How I Slowly Got My Computing Future On
I tried to become a watch-nut once. Not a real watch-nut, mind you. Of course not. A real watch-nut spends lots of money on watches. Heck, I don't even like money. Anywho. A watch-nut knows what a complication is. In fact, that's the only thing that made watches interesting to me. The simpler the complications, … Continue reading Apple v Pi Or How I Slowly Got My Computing Future On
When Your Tickle Goes Bling Bling And Your Ears Say Ahhh
It took me a while. And it also took one of my micro-SD cards along with various installs, network wiring configs, a new fancy case and fun, fun, pure listening/audio fun. But before any of that, first things first. I'm finally NAS ready and my R-PI with Hifiberry Amp2 is the bomb! The initial install … Continue reading When Your Tickle Goes Bling Bling And Your Ears Say Ahhh
Pseudo-Review: Pennies From Heaven Where Cents Make Great Audio
First. The newest Raspberry Pi was kinda hard to get till I happened across it. I'm worst-guessing this is due to limited supply, heavy demand. Some online shops were taking orders of the Pi but then not indicating delivery dates. Second. I bow humbly to #Hifiberry and their new Amp2 and the fact that I … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: Pennies From Heaven Where Cents Make Great Audio
Pseudo-Review: The Film Collossal Or That Thing In My Substance Abuse That Is Serious Childhood Drama
Warning: spoiler alert! This movie is totally worst-explained. Things I wish I could have written? Kafka's The Metamorphosis. Thornton Wilder's The Ides of March. The movie Collossal. Etc., etc. And by-the-buy, I watched Colossal last night via some stupid streaming service and I was pleasantly surprised. On that note, streaming itself isn't stupid but the … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: The Film Collossal Or That Thing In My Substance Abuse That Is Serious Childhood Drama
Julius Caesar Killed With (Bad) Ideas Not Daggers–Just Like My Beloved #Americant
Coincidence? I finally (it's been on my to-do list for a while) started re-reading Thornton Wilder's Ides of March... in March? Actually I started re-reading it the last few days of March and casually finished it at the end of April. Reason? I had put it off long enough--and it was time. For I knew, … Continue reading Julius Caesar Killed With (Bad) Ideas Not Daggers–Just Like My Beloved #Americant
Pseudo-Review #5: R&M Charger GX 4000km
Pseudo-Reviews begin here. It's been a long cold wet winter, dear worst-rider. No. Seriously. The weather has been so dismal the past few months here in the Germania tribe of #eurowasteland that I've barely ridden the R&M. Although I've been living in the old country for well over twenty-five years now, this past winter season has … Continue reading Pseudo-Review #5: R&M Charger GX 4000km
Pseudo-Review: The Shape Of Water Not Unlike My Desire Of The Her Of All Fish
Returned from The Homeland last Monday. It was a horrible trip. It was horrible because, of the two weeks I was there, after doing some yard work for my Mom, I contracted a pretty bad skin ailment from poison ivy. In fact, as I worst-write this, two weeks after returning, I'm still itching. (But it … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: The Shape Of Water Not Unlike My Desire Of The Her Of All Fish
Pseudo Review: Audio On The Cheap, Refurbised Used Speakers, Raspberry Pi HifiBerry Galore And Happy As A Pig In…
First pseudo-review of this sort of stuff here. Been fiddling around with audio for a few years now. About a decade ago, well into my forties, I made the mistake of purchasing a surround sound system. It was some ginormous thirty-pound, seven channel, only God knows how to setup system and after a few years … Continue reading Pseudo Review: Audio On The Cheap, Refurbised Used Speakers, Raspberry Pi HifiBerry Galore And Happy As A Pig In…
Pseudo Book Review Of “Fire And Fury” Or If Only There Was More Space Between The Lines
Books with scary pictures of authors on inner or back covers should be avoided at all costs. I suppose that goes for worst-writers, too. At least that's what I used to tell myself--about real writers that actually get paid to write stuff. With that in mind, hats off to you Mr. Wolff. Which brings me … Continue reading Pseudo Book Review Of “Fire And Fury” Or If Only There Was More Space Between The Lines
Hey Comrade! My School Of Greed Is Gonna Kick Your School Of Greed’s A$$
In order to cope with the two Ms (monotony & mendacity) of growing up in Suburban Hell of my beloved #Americant, I participated--at the duress of my broken family--in two organised sport activities. One of those activities was tennis. And, if I recall correctly, I was actually ranked within the top-100 players of my state … Continue reading Hey Comrade! My School Of Greed Is Gonna Kick Your School Of Greed’s A$$
When All Else Fails Just Put Some Butter On It
Subtitle: Pseudo-Review Of .99€ Movie Rental The Founder Almost didn't make it, dear worst-reader. If it would have come to pass, this would have been the second movie I rented on iTunes but never watched. Luckily I had a few days left when I hit the play button last night. By-the-buy, iTunes (Germany) gives you … Continue reading When All Else Fails Just Put Some Butter On It
