Since a scrub is a guy "hanging out the passenger side of his best friend's ride, trying to holla at" women, then he's looking for a woman to holla back: a hollaback Girl.
So, if you say that you ain't no hollaback girl, that just means that you don't want no scrub.

#ShowerThoughts: From now on, whenever I see "IP" in reference to movies or series, my brain will overlay it with "eyepee".
#ShowerThoughts: Gangs are what working class brown people have instead of neighborhood associations, and in the absence of radical unions who do community organising instead of just acting as staff associations with labour lawyers on retainer.
#ShowerThoughts: Touching grass is infinitely preferable to touching cloth.
#ShowerThoughts: Businesses are systems for *moving* money, not "making money". Whenever you see someone defending a business practice on the basis of a "right" to "make money", it's worth considering where the practice takes money from, and moves it to
Self-driving is an essential technology in making killer robots - things like autonomous tanks or armored vehicles that need to be able to self-drive and kill anything that moves.
Tanks were originally made by last century's fascists. This century's techno-fascists will make them self-driving, duh!
Well, if self-driving fails, there's Meta Oculus VR with an AI-generated overlay to make the gig soldier feel like they're playing a video game.
For anyone who saw my pinned post about my health scare a few weeks back, or the blog post about my visit to hospital, I just wanted to share that I'm fine now.
I've since been thoroughly poked and prodded by a very thorough doctor, who gave me a clean bill of health. I'm still not sure whether I had a virus, but I definitely had a bad reaction to new meds. Which I won't be continuing with.

Anyway the whole incident woke me up to the fact that I'm a bit burned out. I've given myself permission to withdraw from all volunteer work, political news and commentary, and anything else liable to make me swear at my phone. For at least a month, probably two.
I will continue to post when I feel so inclined, but it will be mostly stuff about TV shows, entertaining podcasts, and #ShowerThoughts. I may reply occasionally, but will likely keep it light.

#ShowerThoughts: Culture is the interference pattern between general principles and specific circumstances.
"What are the organisational perspectives of life in a society which authentically "reorganises production on the basis of the free and equal association of the producers"? Work would more and more be reduced as an exterior necessity through the automation of production and the socialisation of vital goods, which would finally give complete liberty to the individual."

#ShowerThoughts: What if all the myths that give us our image of hell, as an uncomfortably hot afterlife for badly behaved people, are based on ancient culture memories? From cultures who thrived during the last few thousand years of the last ice age and were totally disrupted by the warming of the climate and catastrophic sea level rise?
Maybe they were wrong about climate change in the opposite way. They thought it *was* their fault, when it wasn't. Instead of thinking it isn't now when it is
#ShowerThoughts: 'More is better' is the ethos of a cancerous tumor.
The growth-based productivity obsession is deeply toxic.

Random thought:
Queernormative refers to a setting in which queerness/queer relationships/etc are normal.
If queer relationships are normal, are they still queer?

@tofugolem
I think you misses my point. Try reading the whole post, and thinking about it, rather than just smashing out a snarky, out-of-context reply to the first sentence. Even a Trained #MOLE can do better than that.
Muted for a week.
EDIT: unmuted, please see subsequent post 🙏
Oh lordy, it struck me while I was having a shower (#ShowerThoughts) that I may have gone off half-cocked, in exactly the way I was accusing @tofugolem of doing *in that very post*. Oh the horrifying irony 😳
If this is indeed a case of heated agreement, my humblest apologies.

This reminds me of fuzzpop pioneers of the nineties and early noughties, like The Breeders, Belly, and Mazzy Star. In some ways, these bands were among the US counterparts of the UK shoegaze scene. But like The Breeders, Dirty Pets has a bit of artpunk Pixies and Sonic Youth influence thrown in there too.
I mean, they're not really "Extended Play", are they, compared to a full album ("LP" or "Long Play"). They are compared to a single ("SP"), I guess. So if a record is just a single with more B side tracks (remixes, covers, demos etc), then sure, call it an EP.
But if it's a collection of properly-recorded songs, like an album, but with a shorter runtime? That's an albumette. Or an albumlet (like an applet). Or an albumella (like novella)?
