I’ve heard back from one or two employers, I’m pursuing all leads. Hopefully something comes from all this effort, losing my car would really suck. In any case, I’m going to do what I have to do to survive. It’s just in my nature. It helps a ton to vomit random thoughts, feelings, and ideas into the ether. Having an outlet is important during times of stress. It allows you to regroup and think critically after your batteries have recharged, rather than limping along the entire time on “empty”. In any case, thanks for reading my rapid-fire garbage. I’ll leave you with some good stuff. Listen to the song below.
Shithead
Erm… Okay…
Is it me, or are modern dating videos just getting outright weird?
Nail Gun
This is fucking hilarious. Share the hell out of this.
The Future
I really don’t think people understand how things are going to play out now that we’re reaching and breaching the “Recession” portion of our downard spiral. It’s nearing “Depression”, and it might last a lot longer than four years, or even ten years. The last time this country entered a depression, it lasted ten years, and only rebound because FDR signed “The New Deal”. Social services to catch the fallen masses were put into effect to guarantee that during times of hardship, we would persist. I surmise that the next depression we’re due for can last no less than twenty years, being prolonged by the fact that we do have social services to catch people who are downtrodden. Until the New Deal had been signed and put into effect, we really had no idea what impact it would have on the long run. Being that it was large and important, we can safely assume the effect will be broad and far reaching. That said, this groundhog predicts a long line of bone-chilling winters for many US families. Quite a few, I believe, won’t live through the coming disaster. How the government react, however, could very well determine future economic catastrophies to come. I eagerly await their decision.
Anomolous
I’ve purposely kept myself out of the loop recently when it comes to the world of “Anonymous”. A movement that began with no clear intention or motive, degrading to a slogan to wear “For the lulz”, and spiraling into obsolecense; It’s something my life can do without. This will be my last post dedicated to the analysis of the Anonymous fad and it’s largest adherents.
Keep in mind that the hand that feeds will bite, and it will bite hard.
Anonymous membership has no dues, no fees, no banner or flag, and even the most immoral degenerates can claim the “momevement” for their own. That said, know what you’re getting yourself into when you don the Fawkes mask. Realize that cohorts can turn on you just as easily in this movement as they would without a common cause. I can’t tell you how many butthurt members have screeched “Not your personal army” until they themselves are subject to attack, and subsequently find themselves yelping and whining about their predicament.
Manycam Prank
I used to run Wordpress a while back, and on that Wordpress blog I posted one of the funniest Manycam pranks I’ve ever seen. Surprisingly, I was the one who did this. I had a habit of using 1-guy-1-jar for my pranks, and I’m pretty sure that’s what I was showing this guy. Epic stuff. Without further ado, my foray into making hate to people’s eyes (aside from wearing skimpy swimwear).
Manic Scramble
I don’t really have anything “World Important” to blog about today. What is important to me at the moment is securing any sort of employment at all that I can continue owning and operating a vehicle and at least living a little close to the lifestyle I’ve become accustomed to. I’ve been scrambling to apply to any and every job opening within a thirty mile radius. If anyone out there has any tips at all, they’re greatly appreciated.
Blogging Simplified
Jekyll is an excellent “simple, blog aware, static site generator”. It allows you to use special shorthand syntax like Textile, Maruku, or other markup syntaxes to quickly and easily generate static blog content. The resources available on the internet for using Jekyll to blog are downright plentiful, and the tool itself is incredibly flexible.
The first thing you’ll have to do is grab a Jekyll layout from a current Jekyll blog. They’re all over the place, and nearly every one I’ve seen has been excellent. Choose what looks good to you. The markup supported is so easy that you can manually edit each layout easily to make it suit your own requirements. You’ll also find a plethora of information on how to include Disqus and other features you may require for your blog. Make it as complex or simple as you please. The nice thing is that you’re less likely to experience server-side scripting problems, since the platform generates static HTML. No SQL or PHP locking down required. Just generate your content and you’re good to go.
