80 Million Years, or so.

This is just a quick love note to the fantastic and absolutely essential Kate Wagner who runs the always amazing McMansion Hell.

Her work is so necessary in this weird period of late stage Capitalism, but occasionally she riffs on people who are more in my orbit and I utterly love her for it:

Everybody who has been to college (or even a coffee shop near a college) knows that guy who pretends to be a beat poet and thinks that smoking joints in public and treating women like garbage makes him extremely cool and talented. The sixties were 80 million years ago and yet beatnik cosplayer dudes remain their longest-running export. (Stuff with The Beatles on it is the second longest running export.)

Deep in the Forest.

Deep in the Forest.


By james bezerra



Deep in the forest,

a beetle realizes that he missed

the latest episode of “Glee”.

But then he remembers that he does not like “Glee”

because he is a beetle

and not a Beatle,

so he has no sense of musicality.

Or Ears.

Ridiculous Submarine.

Clearly the Beatles were not thinking of the practicalities of covert warfare when they decided to paint their submarine yellow.



I mean, how are you supposed to do a swallow-water night insertion of special operations forces into hostile territory in a bright yellow submarine without getting seen? That’s just ridiculous.
