zondag 30 juni 2019 I'm studying the list of the 17 Angels of Evangelion. Kaworu Nagisa is the last Angel. Ramiel is the most interesting... the most powerful and destructive. It's a quiet, peaceful Sunday in Oberlin. Well... A squirrel scolds me as I pass through his territory in Martin Luther King Jr. Park. It's 80°F and mostly sunny. Nevertheless, every time I go outside, I want to take a shower when I come back home, to get the sweat off.
President Trump becomes 1st sitting US leader to enter North Korea. You can keep him. Don't let him come back!

vrijdag 28 juni 2019 Night 2 of the Democratic Debate for the 2020 presidential race live from Miami. I watch on MSNBC.
Stephen Colbert's Monologue Following Democratic Debate #2. You don't want to see Chuck Todd when he's angry. Thanks for the laughs!
Judy Garland: Just try it, and I'll start a riot. a line from But Not For Me from Girl Crazy. Yes, fifty years ago, a riot would start. In the early morning of June 28, 1969, police raided a gay bar called the Stonewall Inn in New York's West Village. The LGBTQ community fought back. #Stomewall50. I love looking at the old photos.
It was 10 years ago today, I took this photo of myself. Proudly wearing my colors. Heading down to the 2009 Seattle Pride Parade.
Merde! European heatwave: France hits record temperature of 45.9C. It's still 101°F in Gallargues-le-Montueux at 9:40 PM CEST.

donderdag 27 juni 2019 Turn on Democracy Now! They review last night's Democratic debate. Anand Giridharadas says Democrats should keep their message simple, which Trump does well. Positions like Medicare for all are "as simple as the wall," and doesn't bog people down in policy minutia. "I think these [candidates] don't know who they're talking to sometimes."
The main question should be: Why is Donald Trump president? He is the author of Winners Take All.
Watch movie - Jonathan staring Ansel Elgort.
Man! It got up to 94°F today. We're hotter than Europe! Stay inside most of the day watching Neon Genesis Evangelion. Long live Shinji Ikari!

woensdag 26 juni 2019 Ensign O'Herlihy I barely knew him... but he was a good good guy. Those despicable Gorns killed him.
Our American house is on fire. The Republicans are standing nearby squeezing a can of lighter fluid into the flames while the Democrats seem to be edging the front lawn. I’m hoping a fireman/firewoman emerges in the coming debates... Glenn Kirschner calls for justice.  
OMG! It's 88°F I went out to get some beer at the corner store, and I was totally wet from sweat. My AC is cranking constantly.

dinsdag 25 juni 2019 Last night on Rachel Maddow: Rep. Veronica Escobar talks about the inhumane, unsanitary conditions at the Clint Border Patrol station where immigrant children were being housed by the Trump administration. This MUST end! What a beautiful, sunny day! Out for a leisurely bike ride around town. It's my first visit to the Oberlin Arboretum.
I enjoy the peace and quiet. And it's nice and cool in the shade. The "Arb" has a reservoir, split into two lakes.
Spider-Man: Far From Home comes to the Apollo next Tuesday. I can't wait! Tom Holland is as cute as a puppy. Tom Holland and Stephen Colbert help rescue puppies get adopted. Что это Пентобарбитал? Well... Pentobarbital is a short-acting barbiturate. Maybe the cause of the suicide of Marilyn Monroe.
Watching Jessica Jones... the start of season 3. Jeri Hogarth...

zaterdag 22 juni 2019 Bill Maher Argues "History Has Chosen" Oprah to Run for President in 2020. I ❤️ it! The only person who is a sure thing... New Rule: Oprah 2020.
I heard so many references to #Trumpenstein on Twitter and on Stephanie Miller that I had to watch Young Frankenstein.
I see that Trump is losing support. People who voted for him are realizing that they made the worst mistake... EVER! And we’re like one madman’s decision away from World War III. But today is another edition of The Trumpenstein Reality Horror Show.
FAKE UNIVERSES! The Book of Universes quotes Robin Hanson. If you might be living in a simulation then all else equal you should care less about others, live more for today, make your world look more likely to become rich, expect to and try more to participate in pivotal events, be more entertaining and praise-worthy, and keep the famous people around you happier and more interested in you.
It's such a beautiful day. I ride to town and park my bike at Peters Hall. This is MY KIND OF PLACE! The Oberlin Center for Languages and Cultures is where the kids study world languages. To study the cosmos, they have the Observatory and Taylor Planetarium. I find a shady place in the courtyard to soak in The Living Universe.
The Oberlin Chalk Walk is a big deal. The town is alive with creativity. Some of the art is absolutely stunning! Now I realize how much beautiful talent Oberlin has. I admire the Gay Pride art on Main Street. Everything starts at the Allen Memorial Art Museum.
An alien gives me the Peace Sign. Thank you, Oberlin, for this day.

vrijdag 21 juni 2019 OH MY GOD! The Earth is moving! Midnight movie - The Wandering Earth. It's the craziest premise! The Sun has aged and is about to turn into a red giant. The United Earth Government, a world government, decides to move the Earth out of the Solar System to the Alpha Centauri system, in order to preserve further human civilization. Earth gets sucked into Jupiter's gravity well.
Tensions are heating up between Iran and the U.S., and Stephen Colbert explains how we got to this point. #LSSC 😄 Meredith Whitney wrote Fate of the States: The New Geography of American Prosperity. And Ohio? Check it out from the OPL. Solstice in Oberlin, Ohio, USA - Friday, June 21, 2019 at 11:54 am EDT. Hello, Summer 2019! Today's Solstice Marks Season's Beginning.
What a beautiful day for a solstice in Oberlin! It's 75°F and SUNNY! UV is at a 9, so I retreat into the Apollo to see MIB International. Chris Hemsworth... as handsome as ever. Getting the bad-guy aliens!

donderdag 20 juni 2019 The Satisfying Chill Of The Audacious 'Snowpiercer' Wow! My midnight movie is Snowpiercer.
Wilford: I believe it is easier for people to survive on this train if they have some level of insanity. As Gilliam well understood, you need to maintain a proper balance of anxiety and fear and chaos and horror in order to keep life going. And if we don't have that, we need to invent it. In that sense, the Great Curtis Revolution you invented was truly a masterpiece.. This quote reflects on Trump's scary authoritarian tendencies. Save us from this horror!
LGBTQ Superheroes SAVE THE DAY! Nicole Maines - Supergirl. Colton Haynes - Arrow. Nafessa Williams - Black Lightning.
This is the rainiest day that I have ever experienced in Ohio!
The rain has been incessant. But I manage to grab a movie from the library during the "light" rain - Space Station 76. An awkward incident between Liv Tyler and Matt Bomer.

maandag 17 juni 2019 The world is watching Hong Kong. We stand with all freedom-loving people. Despite the riot police, tear gas, rubber bullets and pepper spray... the protests continue. Young, radical and ready for tear gas! Many barely out of their teens... How did you kids get so radicalized? So defiant?
Wonder woman. You're so wild and wonderful. 'Cause it seems whenever we're together. The planets all stand still - Barbarella.
Dazzle me with rainbow colors. Fade away the duller shade of living. Come and save me from my misery.

Watch rockumentary The Dirt - the story of L.A. rockers Mötley Crüe. The pool scene is my favorite. Did Ozzy Osbourne Really Snort Ants and Drink His Own Urine? The film has a TV-MA rating. (That's all?)

zaterdag 15 juni 2019 A campy little fan-based vid of MST3K. Amazing! Great job, BranzantFilms! The vintage 90s commercials are a nice touch. Watch MST3K vs. Gamera: Round II - E01 - GAMERA vs. VIRAS
Don't give up, you got a reason to live. Whew! Back when malls were a thing... 1998. Gregg Alexander - frontman for the New Radicals. I'm being a space cadet on this rainy day. I enjoy Titan Revealed.
I got a little laugh from this. Being from Seattle, I'm actually amazed how wet it gets in Ohio. Stop, rain, stop!
Anyway... My sister told me that Ohio has been wetter than usual. Wildfires in the West. Swamps in the East. #climatechange Oy vey! 😐

vrijdag 14 juni 2019 Listen to rebroadcast of Stephanie Miller. Stephan Jenkins, lead singer of Third Eye Blind, talks about his Progressive activism, and his band’s new Summer tour! Asleep with BBC News on the radio. I hear the World Football report - Adventures in Guam: The 2022 World Cup journey begins. I dream that I'm in the stadium with shirtless students cheering.
Guam's Matao beat Bhutan 5-0, moves on to second round of qualifications for World Cup. Congratulations, Guam!
Lex Luther has an evil plan! He discovers a Supergirl duplicate - a Kaznian clone - which Lex dubs Red Daughter - Красная дочь. Lex manipulates Red Daughter into seeing the United States as a place of greed, corruption, and violence. Episode: The House of L.
They'll start rounding up aliens without discrimination, ergo I propose... we scrub the alien registry from our database. I ❤️ Brainy.
It's a pretty day! I admire the garden at the SW corner of Carnegie.

I don't mind a throwback tonight, if you don't. Breakfast At Tiffany's
