Since I rarely updated anyway, nobody will particularly miss my raving or find the any downtime inconvenient; I also have my own personal shenanigans to attend to which will make it a bloody miracle if I actually manage to get anything even remotely creative done, much less this managing to get this sucker up and running again. But I’ll start simple and keep my fingers crossed and go from there. It’s a good project for me in a couple of important ways, but I simply may not be up to it yet and may not be up to it for some time. At least until some things in my life are stabilized. I just can’t focus.

Anyway, I’m elsewhere on the web; my mouth roars on. I miss my blog, so hopefully that will provide at least a little impetus for me to get it taken care of.

This blog may break without warning as things go on behind the scenes. For instance, to start off with, I’m deleting as much as I can from the server. It’s an unholy mess. Newer things may break – email me to let me know. Older things will DEFINITELY break because I’m deleting all the old sites I put up before. Some things, like my Martin Luther King page, I’ll try to keep from disturbing until it’s moved to its new home because that page gets a ton of hits and a lot of schools use it. A lot of black history sites also steal it, without even so much as a linkback. Nice karma you got going on over there, you guys. :P Way to keep the flame alive.

Anyway, my email remains the same: perilous at sithly dot com. So give me a shout if you need to talk to me or if the site is broken somehow. I’m just going to start with getting back the ability to post if I want to -that broke sometime between April and a couple months ago, probably because of the old theme I had – and go from there. I’ll be curious to see what happens, if anything, from this point forward!

Peace. Stay safe out there, folks.

Chuck DeVore, you creepy son of a bitch, not only do you look like a freak who got his head forceped beyond all human recognition at the moment of your birth, but you’re a fucking idiot to boot.

Republicans never cease to amaze me. And when I say “amaze” I mean “disgust to my very core.”

Also? In reading various sources about this situation, which has been ongoing between the Henley/Campbell and DeVore camps, I see a hell of a lot of comments left on articles by people who wouldn’t know a fact if it bit them on the ass and called them Sally.

People, you need to shut the fuck up about musicians who have political messages and who aren’t afraid to share their opinions about them. You dont have to agree with them, but just because they are musicians and entertainers doesnt mean that their livelihoods erase their right to speak their minds. Their professions do not suspend their status as American citizens. And most of them are a lot fucking smarter than YOU. The only reason you dont want to hear their messages is because you dont know what the fuck theyre talking about and you dont have the brains of a peahen to begin with, so anything you can’t understand pisses you off.

If the fact that they actually use their brains to think with annoys you, stay home and listen to the radio. Dont expect them to keep their opinions to themselves just because you’re too much of a fucking idiot to live in the real world. And I know this is true for one reason: most of the people who complain about it are right-wingers. You dont hear the left screaming about it whenever an artist expresses themselves. That’s because we know all about how to agree to disagree. That’s a concept that’s well beyond you guys.

You see, we commie pinko liberal Antichrist socialist Marxist Jewboy Muslim Negro gay lesbian baby-killing whale-hugging America-haters know that if we dont agree with someone, we can simply ignore them. We dont feel the need to blast you right wing folk off the face of the Earth whenever you say something stupid (which is pretty much any time you say anything at all), no matter how tempting that thought may be. That’s because we aren’t so small-minded and so terrified of anyone who isnt exactly like us that the only reaction we have when faced with it is total annihilation. Just one of the many differences between the right and the left.

Finally, because this detail is clearly something you have failed to notice, allow me to point something out to you: Music has always been about things like protest and political commentary. Just because you are incapable of comprehending any lyric or meaning deeper than the average Britney Spears or Boyz II Men crap doesnt mean that everyone else is as ignorant, uninformed, or stupid as you are.

Go crawl back under your rocks and continue to lay your plans for the secession of Texas (and good riddance to bad rubbish, I might add – good luck with that and may the drug commandos show you no mercy). We’re done with you for now, and we’ve got a lot of work to do to try to repair the damage you people have done before you concoct a new way to steal a few more elections so you can get back in here and fuck everything up all over again.

When I woke this morning at 7.30, the blaze covered 289 acres.  It’s now a 4,500-acre monster and it’s jumped the PCH and headed west.  At least the wind is beginning to die down and they’ve got it one-quarter contained at this point, though.  Several firefighters have been hurt, and dozens of homes have been destroyed.  The smoke from this one is supposed to be really intense.  I just hope it doesnt drift this way; I’ve had enough allergy problems to deal with ever since the last one.  This is getting fucking ridiculous.
Most importantly, though, I hope nobody loses their lives this time.
