OMG

Well there's something you don't see every day

Because seriously, usually they talk about breaking up the state, not quitting it altogether.

"I looked as hard as I could at how states could declare bankruptcy," said Michael Genest, director of the California Department of Finance who is stepping down at the end of the year. "I literally looked at the federal constitution to see if there was a way for states to return to territory status."

I wonder how long it'll take for Crazy Eddie to show up.

Sky Harbor, 0235L

Trippy. Ever been in an airport that's completely empty? The shops all closed, the benches cleared, only the occasional cop or runway dude passing by in the halls? This is really kinda 28 Days Laterish.

So how do you say Internationale in Klingon?

And just like before

there ain't no internets. Sooooo, Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night...I disappear. Sorry...

OMG

Permanent shift!

Get!

So I work Fri-Sun 8pm-8am now. No idea what kind of internet access I'll have but I suspect there should be something, since it's downtown. And it's hourly too, I think 6-7 bucks an hour...so it should be around 200 a week income. And I'll get an extra check between now and the con!

OMG

Coolest youtube video /ever/


*pinky* One MEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLYUN frames per second.
thoughtful

Job!

Get!

Well, for a week anyway, but it'll pay for my plane tickets and such to get back to the convention and I might even have some spending money left over this year. First time in I-don't-want-to-think-how-long; I think...AX 02 was the last time I had cash money for a con. This is cool.

It'll be a five-day stay with an older gent doing live-in home care, cooking for him and doing some basic stuff around the house. Nothing too serious, just having someone around to keep him company and take him places, and otherwise hang out for a good $115 a day. Not a tremendous wage but I get 3 hours free time guaranteed and 8 hours sleep time, all covered in that, so hey. I won't sneeze at 600 bucks a few weeks before AUSA.

So if you all don't see me much after Wednesday evening, I'll be a bit busy. I might not have internet access but I will have my anime to watch, at least I'll be occupied.

OMG

GREATEST SHOW EVER

Okay, so I saw "We thought Kampfer was the worst show we subbed. We were wrong. || Video quality is reflective of the anime quality." as a comment from gg's sub of Seitokai no Ichizon. You know me, you know what I thought, so I watch it. LESS THAN TWO MINUTES IN this happens.

Characters sitting at a table from a manga discussing what their anime should be. Yes, the manga characters; there's random references and suggestions to other things but then the energetic one suggests "let's have seven balls with stars on them that we have to collect!" The snarkass sits there and says "Evolution." The suggestor screams that it was so bad that he shouldn't even mention it. Socchi wa kuchibisuru daaaa~ T_T

...they just mocked the crap out of the American DBZ movie. I don't care if the rest of this is worse than what I showed at AUSA last year, this is the best freakin' thing I've seen all year. I have not HOOTED at something like that in...a very, very long time.

I love this show.

It wouldn't be as scary if it didn't keep happening...

...but unrelated celebrities are dying in weird clusters this year, anyone notice? The newest are of course, Patrick Swayze, and then tonight both Mary Travers (Peter, Paul, & Mary) and Henry Gibson (the nazi from Blues Brothers).

But go back and look at all the deaths of famous people this year and notice how they keep clustering within a day of each other, or on the same day. It's getting just a little bit bizarre.

Didn't know Light Yagami hated hollywood.

Get your Guy Fawkes masks...

Seriously, I swore I'd give up political blogging. But this bullshit goes way beyond the pale and is a nasty, nasty "first step" in widespread monitoring. What kills me the most?

Ministers hope the move will reduce the number of youngsters who get drawn into crime because of their chaotic family lives, as portrayed in Channel 4 comedy drama Shameless.

They're using A SATIRICAL COMEDY TELEVISION SHOW to justify ENFORCED INVASION OF PUBLIC PRIVACY. Oh and it gets better, what I said about first step?

But Shadow Home Secretary Chris Grayling said: “This is all much too little, much too late.

“This Government has been in power for more than a decade during which time anti-social behaviour, family breakdown and problems like alcohol abuse and truancy have just got worse and worse.”


"WE MUST DO MORE!" I'd call "balls" on it, but he's the one supporting it. Anyway, kids, you saw your first episode of V for Vendetta here!

...wonder what Alan Moore thinks.

Welcome home, Captain.

It's a sad thing, but eighteen years after his death Navy pilot Scott Speicher's remains have been found and are being returned.

Alpha would be proud

Though I can get a lot more than 300 pictures with one card.

Sometimes there's a little bit of magic you can find when you aren't looking for it, or anything else. There's a batch of photos, just keep hitting next.

The last one intrigues me, I've never seen a fallen tree bend over a rock like that.

Maybe? looking for a new place

So, things have turned bad recently, though they've gotten a bit better. Just in case, I could soon be at a point where I may need floor space and a ride for a month or two, and a little patience while I jobhunt. I'll get 200 bucks in foodstamps if I can stay in Arizona, that'll offset the worst of anything and I can always cover a share of back-rent once I do get income.

No need for explanations, just let me know if there's a couch or spare room that could be available. I'll see what I can do about longer-distance travel, if that option comes up. Hoping things stay stable, for now.
