We cannot quit when five o'clock comes around. We got to perspire.
- Camo Guy on the Occupy PDX Livestream
Anybody who has "known" the Queen Bee in Mario Galaxy will understand what it was like to get a flea out of my cat's considerable fuzz.
Certainly, some version of heaven involves good beer and productive writing while an orange cat snuggles the keyboard and purrs in your lap.
"I'm Peggy Olsen, and I want to smoke some marijuana."
When was the last time you brushed off a Sunny Day Real Estate album?
Is it more awesome to be sick at work all night, or to have your shitty alleycat locked inside all night pissing all over the place so ...
Who can make me a disco ball helmet out of one-way mirrors?
Tonight's writing music: Earth, Om, and a special guest appearance by Bitter:Sweet.
Cocorosie plays the soundtrack to your dreams the night after you get molested.
I'm ready to call it. If Cher was Queen Of The Party, and Meatloaf knocked her up, Lady GaGa would be the bastard heiress to the throne.
jj makes the music that Enya would, if Enya shot heroin into her labia.
Listening to "Doe Deer" by Crystal Castles off their new album, Celestica = Getting skullfucked to a massive, quaking, eargasmic climax.
Treats, the debut album from Sleigh Bells, is Jock Jams for the kids who skipped class and hung out under the bleachers.
Read my latest vignette, "A Brief Rest in a Shallow Grave," in the Stumptown Underground no. 3: Heavy Enough to Fall, out now.
New piece in the Stumptown Underground #3 entitled "A Brief Rest in a Shallow Grave" wherein a man wishes for an easy death.
About to compete in the IPRC's Spooky Write-Off, where my terror-fueled insanity will send the competition to their grave.
New piece in Stumptown Underground #2. The theme is flight, and the title is Taking Off.
People who dug The Matter at APE whose work I dig: Jeff Rowland of Overcompensating, John C. of Doublefine, and Jim Blanchard. Awesome.
