Pseudo-Review of The Premonition and The Fifth Risk by Michael Lewis It was hard to imagine anyone wading into that passage voluntarily, much less giving it a second thought. The words mattered less for what they said than for what they could be made to say. Like the words in the Holy Bible or the … Continue reading He Who Should Not Be Named

North Sea Oysters And Glamping
Pseudo-Review of the T6 California Edition VW Bulli Well. There you have it, dear worst-reader. I finally did it. Although it’s not a notch on (my) bucket list (on account I don’t have the privilege and inner-banality of a bucket list), I finally took the plunge and cruised around in a (modern) hippie van souped-up … Continue reading North Sea Oysters And Glamping
Exploring Streaming, Finding Budgie
Volume control/Preamp from Mac Volume control/Preamp from the app Worst-title 2: Doing my worst-best to discover the convenience of music streaming As you’all may or mayn’t know, dear worst-readers, as an Apple fanboy, if I’m gonna finally break down (give-in) and try music streaming, it’s gotta be with Apple’s music service. Or? Indeed-1 After a … Continue reading Exploring Streaming, Finding Budgie
Look Where
Source of pic: screenshot with some extra safety Can you believe it, dear worst-reader. My better half finally singed up for one of those streaming services. I mean. We’ve actually tried it before but gave up on it pretty quick. That was back in 2015. Something about there just not being much available that was … Continue reading Look Where
A Most Unentertaining Film
Source of pic: see wiki link below Worst-title 2: How things look while you wait for American Dream death. Worst-title 3: Pseudo-Review of the documentary Nomadland. No. Seriously. Dear worst-reader. Nomadland has to be one of the most bizarre if not surreal movies ever. No. Seriously. I’d even compare it to the ending of 2001 … Continue reading A Most Unentertaining Film
Pseudo-Review: Keychron K2 V2
Worst-title 2: This is one cool keyboard that I didn’t know I needed Every once-a-once, dear worst-reader, whether in a computer section of a retailer or fiddling around at an Apple Store, I always give keyboards a test. The thing is, as a MacBook user for the past (going on) twenty years, I’ve never really … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: Keychron K2 V2
Feindesliebe Or Stockholm Syndrom Or Both?
Source of pic: wiki Worst-title 2: After Nazis and DDR what will be Germany’s third atonement? Oh, it’s so rare, dear worst-reader. So rare that I sit back and watch a German tv-movie. You know. Those movies that have looked, sounded and play-out the same since... Well, since post WW2/Wirtschaftswunder Germany got all whacky with … Continue reading Feindesliebe Or Stockholm Syndrom Or Both?
Overcooked Pasta Ain’t All That Bad
Screenshot from the movie Pig (2021) Worst-title 2: Review of the movie Pig (2021) and SPOILER ALERT! The most profound moment in the entire film is when Robin Feld (Nicolas Cage) tells a former cooking student that he always overcooked the pasta. Now. In this film/story we’re dealing with a somewhat famous albeit now reclusive/austeiger … Continue reading Overcooked Pasta Ain’t All That Bad
Search For Mother
Not sure when this worst-thought first came to worst-moi, dear worst-reader. It’s a recent thought though, within the past year or three I’m sure. This thought has been percolating in a corner of my worst-mind as though it were a distant memory suppressed. It’s certainly been magnified since last summer. Indeed. Last summer is when … Continue reading Search For Mother
Pseudo-Review and Long-Term Test: RPi4 As A Desktop PC
Worst-writer's desktop Today, dear worst-reader, it is time to take another look at worst-writer’s experience with a/the wonder of the tech world. I’m worst-writing, of course, about nothing other than my favourite computing platform the Raspberry Pi. Specifically. I’m reviewing today my trusty Raspberry Pi 4 after having fiddled with it for the past two … Continue reading Pseudo-Review and Long-Term Test: RPi4 As A Desktop PC
Dead Languages, Undying Sovereign Worship
Worst book review: The Writing of the Gods It’s been a long time (twenty years), dear worst-reader, since I last visited the British Museum. Among its various treasures are two things that have always stood out for worst-moi from all-things stolen in the name of colonialism and monarchial bull$hit galore. The first was having … Continue reading Dead Languages, Undying Sovereign Worship
American Dystopia And The Consumption Of Golf Balls Through Garden Hoses
Same sweater, different film? One is Body Snatchers and the other Animal House. Actresses? Not at all the same. (Sarcasm off.) Alternate worst-title: Back in the day you could play musical cars (as in: musical chairs) at a great drive-in movie. Disclaimer: this worst-post contains spoiler alerts for an old movie and may (or may … Continue reading American Dystopia And The Consumption Of Golf Balls Through Garden Hoses
Pseudo-Review: Beamer Baby Boom
Title two: Review of the LG Cinebeam 1400 Lumen Wonder As you may or may not know, dear worst-reader, I'm a typing nut. That's right. Even though I'm not all-that interested in what's been typed (by worst-moi), as long as I'm doing it, life's almost good. The only other thing that's better in life than … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: Beamer Baby Boom
Berry Hifi Galore
This (worst)post was updated March, 2021. (Strike throughs.) Title 2: No such thing as Hifiberry overkill. Or? Gotta say a few worst-words about my Hifiberry collection, dear worst-reader. Not sure if you can tell, but I'm a Raspberry Pi fan. I love these these little SBCs (single board computers) and when combined with DACs, IMHO, … Continue reading Berry Hifi Galore
Robot Vacuum Worst-Best Sucking Things Up
To avoid all my worst-writing and get straight to the pseudo-review, just scroll down a bit. Otherwise, good luck. This consume-to-survive world/life is gettin' to me, covid n'all. You too, dear worst-reader? I mean. Just the other day, after purchasing another one of them fancy-pants robot vacuum cleaners, after my previous über-expensive robot vacuum cleaner … Continue reading Robot Vacuum Worst-Best Sucking Things Up
Planet Of The Free To Be Stupid
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
