and honestly I probably won’t be back. it’s too much work maintaining a blog like this for a hobby when you’ve got other things going on and don’t really feel it every day. So I’ll think about it for a little bit, but probably I’ll de-activate unless anyone would like this url with the twitter account that goes with it. If so, send me a message with what email you’d like me to sign it over to and I’ll send you a message back with the password. Ideally you would be someone who would continue with my concept that I barely started to flesh out, but if you just want the url for some other purpose that’s cool too.

Curious intent: Twitter Joke Trial protest.:

A protest has started up on twitter where people are tweeting the original message that caused a man to convicted and fined £1000, adding #IAmSpartacus at the end of it…

Crap! Robin Hood airport is closed. You’ve got a week to get your shit together, otherwise I’m blowing the airport sky high!!

Yes I fully agree this is important. Ironic Hyperbole is not only a right but a civic duty!

ANOTHER GIANT SPIDER INVADES CANADA'S CAPITAL

Wed, 03 Nov 2010 14:53:00 -0400

These are the latest pictures of yet another Giant Metallic Spider invading the Canadian capital of Ottawa. The pictures depict the spider approaching the National Art Gallery which is home to pieces from the world over, including the Inuit sculpture used handily in self-defense by the former Prime Minister Jean Chretien. He and his wife, Ailene, used the artwork to hold a late night intruder to the PMs residence at 24 Sussex Drive at bay. The Canadians believe the robot spider may be after this special secret sculpture weapon and good-luck charm, the top armament of the Canadian military, thus rendering the country virtually defenseless.

The spider wasted little time as it attacked a group of peace delegates mercilessly. Also seen is the vain attempt by the local militia, backed by the local 237 of the Heavy Lifting Union, to lasso the robot spider using a crane with a looped cable. Unfortunately the group was unable to get the cable swinging overhead fast enough to effectively calf-rope the machine. The operator may have been suffering cataracts resulting in fuzzy vision, as a heavy aroma of medicinal marijuana emanated for the cockpit of the crane.The Robot quickly escaped and ate several passersby.

“As humanity perfects itself, man becomes degraded. When everything is reduced to the mere counter-balancing of economic interests, what room will there be for virtue? When Nature has been so subjugated that she has lost all her original forms, where will that leave the plastic arts? And so on. In the mean time, things are going to get very murky”

As a follow up to the question from our friend Glenn, If I were human or cared about the state of human affairs, I might consider the concept of a guaranteed livable income to be a premise that any government should start with, being probably the most basic goal of any society. But we’ve pretty much lost hope for you all so go ahead and elect your anti-intellectual corporate apologists.

Hey monkey, are you a socialist?

Tue, 02 Nov 2010 16:16:17 -0400

I’m not sure that I understand what I’ve said that has lead you to believe that. Are you suggesting that I was dishonest when I said that I was keen on laissez-faire. Maybe you know it by another name: “free market capitalism.” We do see lots to like in this religion and think that we can use it well to keep our dominance once we rise above the ruin that you humans are bringing on your own society. However, as a basis for government, we do not fully agree.

We are currently in the process of writing our manifesto and political doctrine, which we will publish soon and at that time you will have your answer.

Maybe I just don’t understand your use of the word “socialist.” Do you really know what this word means?

Armoured arctic arachnids, the big-game hunter’s dream

By Lewis Page

Another great reason to join our cause! We have no faith in humans to end global warming even with this imminent threat. I think we can all agree that it is much better to be off-world when this happens.

But really, what are you more afraid of, socialists increasing your taxes and imposing profit restraining environmental regulations, or giant spiders?

“Have you ever considered the possibility that God might be a crazy woman? Or that John Dillinger died for you? Do you think there might be a secret technique by which the Enlightenment can literally get Something for Nothing? Could the Martians have the true religion while we Earthians are lost in superstitious darkness? Can a cup of coffee be a sacrament, and if not, why not? Does mathematics of six-dimensional space-time and philosophy of Multi-Ego Panthesitic Solipsism explain the universe?”

Monkey, there is still time to find God and repent. Will you allow me to baptize you?

Mon, 25 Oct 2010 13:00:00 -0400

Are you referring to your Christian sect, or are you referring to the church of laissez-faire & social intolerance that you also belong to? We’re quite keen on the later as it can be used to strong-arm renegade humans quite well. Christianity is a little too goody-goody for us … if you follow it as directed you’ll never get to win the rat-race.

I didn't think there was such a thing as a talking monkey. Does this mean that evolution is real?

As I said before, we feel the world was created by Hanuman the monkey king. It did not take 7 days but eons, and both Monkeys and Humans were created through a series of events set in motion by scientific laws. The fact that I can talk has nothing to do with it and I don’t understand why you even asked that.

We respect the freedom of all religion or none if you prefer, but if you do decide to worship Hanuman, you will be given full citizenship rights in the new world order and given the title “semi-evolved” otherwise you will have to maintain your place as an indentured servant, as we rely on your individual work-ethic to feed the corporation’s profit needs.

U.S. Plans to Sell Jet Fighters and Helicopters to Saudis

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Published: October 20, 2010

More strategic brilliance for us to learn from, these human newspapers are a treasure trove of tactical knowledge for our mission!

This will be the largest arms sale ever in order to increase the perception that the administration is tough against Iran right before election season… something that right leaning independent voters can appreciate. We can do this by increasing the pressure on Iran, a country where - despite the crazy bigoted rhetoric of Ahmadinejad - a large portion of the population supports the US and accepts western values. And we can do it by arming a country where you can be executed for being homosexual and who’s US-backed authoritarian regime was one of Al Qaeda’s primary grievances leading to it’s formation.

I’m not sure if this is as brilliant as the tea party soliciting foreign cash from neo-liberal organizations by promising them lies based on illusions, but it’s a good deal none the less. plus it means less jets and helicopters in North America if we have to take over.

TPM LiveWire Glenn Beck: Evolution Is ‘Ridiculous — I Haven’t Seen A Half-Monkey, Half-Person Yet’

I don’t know who Jillian Rayfield is, but clearly this is an attempt to slander us and our Monkey brethren. If we were anywhere near as unevolved as this fear-mongering hack, we certainly wouldn’t be able to build a successful colony on Mars now, would we? … but I have to say he does have nice hair…

Attention people of France:

We appreciate your enthusiasm and hope that you will join us in our efforts to rid the world of the various problems inflicted by humanity. However, you might want to spend your energy rioting against one of our many other causes instead of against a 2 year rise in the retirement age… like saving the planet or ending useless ethnic and religious wars. In any event, you can always come to our new earth colony. In fact, if you pledge your support now and send a check for 3 years of your annual salary, we will honor your current retirement age limit.

itsfullofstars:

Oh, crap!

First Mars landers might have found organic material in 1976, and destroyed it by accident.

What are the odds?

Evidence from the late Phoenix Mars lander suggests its Viking forebears might have found organic compounds on the Red Planet — and destroyed them in the process of looking for them.

If this is true, it represents a monumental shift in the way scientists have thought about Mars for the past 30 years. The presence of native Martian organics suggests the planet might not be a dead rock after all.

Above, the first image from the surface of Mars, taken by Viking 1 moments after it landed July 20, 1976.

Read more.

Uh oh. I thought that we got rid of the evidence. Someone’s getting a little too close for comfort.
