BALAAM & THE ANGEL
Hey kids, remember these guys? I thought they were super fab, right around the time I became semi obsessed with Sister Of Mercy’s perfect masterpiece, “Vision Thing” and also Iggy’s “Brick By Brick”, an extraordinarily well written collection of excellent songs even if you aint into the mainstream production and prefer him skronkin round all bloody and peanut butter sticky in the basement of the funhouse broken glass. I liked their hit even better that it seemed to slyly make reference to “Heroine”, everybody’s favorite Dogs D’Amour song from back then. To me they were like a cool cross between the Cult, Julian Cope, and the Bolshoi and pop. I thought they wrote good songs and had a really great sound. It’s so hard to find people into this kindof music to start little nowhere garage bands with. I did see this really glorious pink light coming over the mountain at sunset tonight-for a few flashing seconds it kinda looked like a bomb pop, that was something nice in an otherwise pretty horrific week of alienation, high anxiety, punishment and rejection-rough stuff, just hope my babies are all okay, wherever they are. My father in law’s a mean old cowboy, he left ICU against medical advice, went home and mowed his lawn. My youngest turns 15 tomorrow, his mom went to get him some pizza as a prelude to the big day, he informed me last night he will no longer be permitting me to use “his” tv in the bedroom when I go to bed hours before the rest of the family-I sortof like to unwind with some dumb shit, so I can quit agonizing over my fuckedup predicaments, absent children, overall sense of helplessness and sick dread, before I fade into my dreamland, but you know I’ll do my best to honor his wishes. We’re in the midst of moving, who knows, maybe I can carve out some space for myself in the fuckedup overpacked garage, we’ll see.
Back when I was really immersed in Balaam and Sisters and Iggy, I met this dude somehow in Boston, I guess he found my fanzine at Newbury Comics and before he became rich and famous writing for all those bigtime glossy magazines, he wrote for my sordid, crummy Kinkos stapler in the middle of the night fanzines and I hosted his earliest foray into ramshackle, low budget cable access, grebo shockpunk freakout. I still have a Best Of episode on VHS. I was always hoping the old shows would make it to youtube, but last time I talked to him on the phone, maybe eighteen years ago, I think he said his sister threw all the old tapes out. Bummer. We had a lotta laughs. Articles by: Sleazegrinder | Louder (loudersound.com)

POEM: There it is, Jayne Cortez, 2009 | Black Agenda Report
Oh my stars and garters, brothers and sisters and friends of the revolution, I have been getting so hammered psychologically by the rabid crowds of status seeker conformity, it’s hard to even think straight. I’m basically delirious from all their collective delusions, bullshit cover story scapegoat shams, and mine, all mine, power trips. It’s hard watching once good people being lured over to the dark side. I’ll be honest with ya, I could use a motherfucking cocktail or ten. Everybody I ever knew who aint dead yet seem to be clinging stubbornly to their preferred partisan media source, as if, the five pig media monopolies aren’t all owned by the same group of Wall Street elites-Vanguard and Black Rock are buying up every fucking thing not already owned by Gates and company. Let’s all do our little part and help elevate and amplify the voices of the people for peace and freedom and human rights and civil liberties. Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates should not be allowed to own the world.

COLD MORNING
I gotta walk to the post office in an hour, ‘cross town, a gauntlet of speed freaks, Fentanyl zombies, pitbulls, and gigantic compound owning millionaire Hillary lovin’ new age heiresses. I’m depressed as fuck. Sometimes in this cold world you look around for your friends and you just see people immersed in these private world delusions. One’s on pills, one’s on crack, or gender studies egomaniacs. It’s like all class war, all the time, on every channel and I am on the losing team.
SMASHED GLADYS
I know he’s friends with all my older Canadian punk idols, but Bart Lewis and me social media divorced each other over Hillary and the Democrats a few years ago when I was pissedoff Podesta and Wasserman Schwartz rigged those primaries against Bernie Sanders, the only one whose message could fill stadiums and appeal to a populist majority without corporate media repetition bullshit and hackable deep state vote counting software. Ken Foxx graduated from a Gene Simmons produced blues metal sleaze punk band to playing bass for the world’s greatest all night good times, feel good, right the fuck on party band of all the time, the immortal and untouchable FLESHTONES! Sally Cato, sadly has passed away, but Bart went digging through the archives during the Covid Clampdowns and assembled a really seemingly sensational compilation of seldom heard Smashed Gladys tracks. I’m excited about it even though I won’t probably be able to purchase a copy anytime in the foreseeable future as what little shit I have left is in boxes and my life is chaos with very little autonomy or sovereignty or getting a real vote. Main difference between me and all the other slaves is at least I know I’m a slave. Hard to sleep with that brutal awareness though, cause I never liked eating shit or following orders. I remember growing up I’d always read Gene Simmons in magazines, telling people, particularly women, that they should obediently suck up to rich people. He told his kid not to fix his own car-that’s for the little people. That kinda class bully shit is just not my bag at all. So yeah anyways when we were seventeen and eighteen the Cat Club scene was happening in NYC, the Ramones were having those Acid Glitter Trashball Extravaganzas in the city with the Oddballs, JT, Blonde & Blue. The Waldos were at their peak, just killin’ it, at every show, they just laid it down so righteously. I was Seventeen, Goin’ On Crazy. We’d take reckless road trips in unreliable vehicles we’d buy for $100 or $200 from farmboys who were going to the local mechanic trade school, and worked with us at the local Little Ceasers as delivery drivers, or from my friend, Big Frank, who ran the local speed parts shop. We’d go see every sleazy rocknroll band we could-Mike Monroe, Faster Pussycat, Iggy, Alice, Ace, the Dogs D’Amour, Circus Of Power, Cycle Sluts From Hell, the Ramones, the Heartbreakers, Cheetah Chrome, Pillbox, the Phantoms. I was really into Sally Cato at that age as you might imagine, she was one of my kind. Golden Robot records is releasing this glamtastic tribute to Sally’s very special brand of sexy, streetwise, bluesy soulpower. If you love down and dirty divebar glam rock, and obviously if you are reading anything I ever wrote, you obviously do, I encourage you to check it out. We might not share the same politics, but you out crowd dissidents and dropouts know I think politics are fake as fuck anyways, same billionaires with a puppet on each hand. So ya know, I still applaud and appreciate the high quality rocknroll Bart Lewis has made throughout the years. 18 fuckin’ tracks, just checkout how good this shit is. Ya know nothing gets me feeling like life is worthwhile like the sleazy from the heart rocknroll does. I’m a guy, but I identified with Sally, saw her as a female version of myself really, had a lotta the same personality traits, moves, style and passions, we were into all the same shit. Just look at her. God love her, God bless her. She was a little Johnette, and a little bit Texacala, too! You’d think after all these decades where I’m the only one still writing about summa these bands I’d be on summa these Demon Doll records, Easy Action or Golden Robot mailing lists by now, but you know the record industry is ran by people who are more like Gene Simmons than people like me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uRunEE2bh8 I had to go to Wal Mart last night against my own will and better judgement and their whole music aisle was just like Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, Foo Fighters and the Eagles. You gotta be grateful for fucking youtube if you’re a dishwasher, I suppose. How is anybody supposed to have twenty bucks for a cd when the greedhead Wall street corporations and ruthless horrible utility companies keep gouging the fuck out of all us poor people at the bottom just because they can and just conveniently always using bullshit media to blame their greed on some foreign boogeyman-who is it this week? Hussein, Gaddafi, Chavez, Bin Ladin, ahh yes, Putin, that’s right. All purpose motherfuckin boogeyman. It’s supposed to freeze tonight. (RIP)

“I have learned my friend, the Bengali journalist A.U.M. Fakhruddin, has died from Covid, having been with me during the war that liberated Bangladesh. Every encounter with this poet of a man would lift my mood; I pay tribute to him in my book, Heroes, and here again I salute him.” (-John Pilger)
“Those who hate Russia the most are the ones who embody everything they claim to hate about it: they’re all pro-war, pro-censorship, pro-propaganda, pro-trolling operations, and support Ukraine in banning political parties and opposition media. They are what they claim to hate. Meanwhile those of us who oppose those things are told to “move to Russia”, even though we’re the ones advocating the supposed “western values” they claim to support while they’re doing everything they can to undermine them. THEY should move to Russia.” (-Caitlin Johnstone)
“In reality, US military aid has prolonged a disastrous proxy war with Russia that has claimed thousands of lives.” (-Aaron Maté on Ukraine, September 2019)

LOYAL MACHINES VERSUS ROBOT FIGHTERS
Good Morning, all my brothers and sisters and friends of the revolution! I can’t talk to nobody I used to know since the Tipper Gore PMRC hijacked the mean gentrification shitlb former pseudo left with their fun hating bullshit uncoolness. I still wanna sing and dance and be who I am and I will never support your fascist police state dystopias or evil richman wars for some fuckin’ crumbs of get drunk/control of channel changer privilege or a hallpass from the ruling class like my ex friends and former associates. “If I can’t dance to it, it’s not my revolution. (— Emma Goldman) I never thought I’d see the day when all the ex punks and former hippies would obediently parrot the lies of their higher up superiors and go after anyone who challenges the word of known liars like the Cheney family or Hillary Clinton. The corrupt as fuck art of war motherfuckers at the top all say the best defense is a good offense, which is why corrupt insiders who hold the power and fix the selections and lie us into richman wars came out and accused the left of being puppets, trolls, fake news, Russianbots, sexist, anti semetic-they throw every disingenuous smear in the book at the real resistance–of course their favorites are still conspiracy theorist, Trump supporter, anti science, manspreader, cys born, tankie-hell I don’t even know what some of the Klaus Scwab faux left latest lexicon insults even mean, man-the actual echo-chamber troll armies are the Nato operated big tech paychecks and enthusiastic propaganda reposters who censor and frame all online conversations, and savagely attack and slander anyone who ever breathes anything faintly like the truth. Stokey Carmichael/Kwame Ture was right about everything but particularly when he said the empire has no shame. You can call it what you like-the deep state, the ruling class, the Davos honchos, Reset billionaires, the Bilderberg Owl Cult, the oligarchy, the military industrial complex, the One Percent, the illuminati, the global elites, Nato, the permanent government, the cashless society microchippers, the inteligence agencies. The secretive bankster insiders of Vanguard and Black Rock and a few of their Saudi, UK, and Israeli billionaire collaborators own it all, just like George Carlin told us, way back in the better days. They program us in schools-just like they did all those kidnapped indigenous children, to hate ourselves and they train us to blame ourselves, even though we are lied to our whole lives, kept under boot, and most of us never get no sportin’ chance, the game was fixed, it was all fake as fuck, from the get, and most of our former peers are too invested in the house wins tilted tables, they can not even bring themselves to acknowledge there is a problem when techlords and oil plunderers and racist private prison forced labor profiteers own the entire media, the judges, the unaccountable cops and overmilitarized alphabet gangs, and now, even the fuckin doctors and college professors, who lose their good jobs and jeopardize their wife’s posh lifestyles if they ever tell the truth. We are sadly fucked, my people. Can’t believe so many rubes and dupes think the capitalist machine that eats bodies suddenly gives a real sincere fuck about Muslim women’s literacy or gay people’s rights-these are just useful divide n conquer hustles, donchu see the same ole good ole boy network still runs everything, even if they hired some token gay spy or pretty women of color or trans tv stars to tweet some meaningless pretty talk, or do some feelgood photo ops with some fat kids at the organic White House garden?
I don’t talk alot about it in my writing, but right now, I’m kinda depressed, ya’all-mainly cause on toppa all the friend death I’m still struggling to process, or make any sense of whatsoever, one of my very cherished kids has gone missing and the other side of the family have no idea where she is-being as how they kinda socialized the kids to stay distant from us dirty poors and crazy anarchists, it was all in their hands to use their power and prestige to protect and guide and provide for the kids, keep ’em safe, and it is nothing but low throbbing to sometimes suddenly acute pain not knowing where your kids are, or if they are okay. Something happened that I’m not privvy to-I just know something’s not right. So I kinda worry night and day, just helplessly. Feels like I’m gonna have a fuckin heart attack cause the stress and anxiety and worry is relentless, almost unbearable here.
Meanwhile, I’ve been busy relocating and it can also be a stressful ordeal, reckoning with bureaucracies, impossible to please bliss bubble landlords, doing too much heavy lifting, fretting over wear and tear repairs, and an oversized broken window, especially with a bored teenager wanting constant attention, and two indoor cats and two outdoor cats we’ll need to catch-one of the main reasons I signed on to the move, even though I have personal reservations about the relocation, was we got some problem-neighbor who has insane manias and keeps kidnapping the outdoor cats and relocating them just cause he hates animals, owns nearby property, feels entitled. Also some registered sex offender developer is building these fuckedup Mcmansions all over the nearby fields so it’s non stop construction with all these leering jailbird criminal types he’s got working on his multiple job sites always stopping what they’re doing to give my wife the grossout hubba hubba wolf whistle harrasment business. All this with full women of city hall approval cause it aint their neighborhood being remade in his image. I got more work to do today, but it’s going to rain, and my wife is on an entirely different schedule, so I won’t see her until about two this afternoon. Other problem I have is I still wanna make music, I got songs galore, but can no longer afford the Agenda 21 reset rents in urban places-these godless pigs are even asking $900 a month for run down desert shacks out here in no man’s lands, with forty year old carpets inhabited by generations of pet owners and indoors crack, meth, and cigarette smokers, it’s a sick society-for us or against us, the oligarchy said. The ruling class run the schools now and their identity puppet fraud squad celebrities and faux woke white bourgeoise P.C. bullshit cult is just a big sham. Makes karens on the hill feel holier than somebody, but that’s it. Safespace grovelers and privilege debaters are not real power to the people leftists-they are cloistered campus, future management class shitstains not to be trusted. So yeah I want nothing to do with the dominant mainstream culture which just trots out some fraud squad lady models to help fund endless Dick Cheney imperial proxy wars and tells you what words they’ve decided to ban this week and which comedians have been cancelled for challenging oligarchy preferred propaganda narratives and which whistleblower heroes have been kidnapped by the state. There was a dude, not far from here, who had offered to record me, play guitar, whatever-collaborate, but he has his own merchandise line and I think I’ve been burned too many times by former collaborators who acted like they were gonna do me some favor, but instead just hijacked the material, wasted my time and money before jumping ship to play for better financed say-nothing karaoke clowns, or parlayed their association with me into some kinda monetized high profile gig, or copyrighted songs of mine they had no hand in composing, so I’m kinda loathe to get involved with people who have merchandise lines, ya know what I’m sayin’? Ruthless takers, users, plagiarists, exploiters and social climbers kinda kill the joy in everything, don’t they? Vampires and capitalists. Last time I spoke to my old ridin’ buddy/adventure sharing rhythm guitarist/songwriting cohort, he was having conflict with other folks at the homeless shelter. It is a fuckedup world, a dark time, but pig media keeps everybody in that Thank Obama, pig-pharma happyspell, they keep telling all the Amazon shoppers that Zelensky is winning and people are just critical of AOC because she is a misunderstood female-it’s not cause she helped fund actual nazis in the Ukraine, dropped the ball on freeing the kids in cages and reuniting families warehoused at the border gulags that she wept for under Trump in all her staged publicity photos, stopped fighting for universal healthcare when Inside traitor Pelosi told her to; she, like soldout sadsack Sanders always stops short of proposing a peace negotiation, or demanding the evil empire cease sanctioning and trying to coup Cuba or Venezuela, and after the Capital Hill cop lives matter psy-op, she even dropped all pretenses of defunding the racist police state-those meanies just won’t applaud all her celebrity red carpet Met Gala Eyes Wide Shut special privileges because they are….sexists. That’s the kinda dumb hustle most Murkkkans of the fauxwoke, college conditioning fall for. Nato-left new McCarthyite redscare Hillary Voters just wanna pivot back to how some celeb in a Met gala skirt is wokey woke for McWokeness or the token faces of false diversity are being unfairly treated because of “gender’, they only issue that matters at all ever to the they/them college programmed automatons. Gender is the only religion of the shitlibs, empty tokenism-same old patriarchy now in pants-suits, and obligatory skirts on all media males. They kinda even took all the fun outta flamboyant glam stardusted gothic androgyny, didn’t they? Meanwhile, the empire keeps slaughtering innocents, evicting families, and caging the poor. Pig media keeps repeating how all that shit’s woke n classy now, cause worshipping Obama, AOC and Lady fuckin’ Gaga is more important to shitlib bourgeoise pigs than any leftist egalitarian principle. All the college kids care about is winning. We found that out when Occupy Eugene tried to occupy the University Of Sports Patriotism for like a day-all those rich fucking white sports kids were all like, “go away-we love wall street!” Michael Moore used to fight the power, now he just fights Trump. That’s sad, man. Somebody told him it’s somehow different when Gender-Dems mass incarcerate or evict or drone or torture people for empirical profits. Fictitious times, indeed. I’m about to go on a walk to get away from the hypnoscreen, see some clouds, get some fresh morning air and birdsong. I’m having one of those days where I feel like just fucking hiking to the offramp and putting my motherfucking thumb in the air. The landlord class, trojan pony gender-gentrifiers and ten dollar cuppa coffee people and creepy Masonic developers are not friends of mine. It’s hard for me to stay somewhere when I really get no say. It’s rough business. All Power To the People, ya’all.

“If you side with criminal totalitarians’ pseudoscience, you’re an idiot & a whore whose entire life’s work is to generate catchy profound-sounding fluff to make totalitarianism appealing to cattle. How to become an intellectual: 1-Write a book of random noises on history, psychology, money, religion, Roman emperors, biology, or whatever, with no actionable information 2-Watch CNN 3-Explain how your book leads you to the same conclusion as CNN on The Current Thing.” (-Saifedean Ammous)
