Legend has it, it was to represent the 13 colonies, although it’s not really true. Pretty sure it was there just to mess with sailors when they were drunk because they sucked when you’re in a hurry.

Pro tip is that you only buttoned the bottom two on each side and one or two at the top because the top row wasn’t visible anyway when the top was on.

Crazy that these guys (those who are still alive) are all millionaires.

Remember when we had money and it was burning a hole in your pocket?

From Wikipedia:

"Maggot Brain" was recorded in one take when George Clinton, under the influence of LSD, told guitarist Hazel during the recording session to play as if he had been told his mother was dead:[5]Clinton explained "I told him to play like his mother had died, to picture that day, what he would feel, how he would make sense of his life, how he would take a measure of everything that was inside him."[9] Though several other musicians performed on the track, Clinton largely faded them out of the final mix so that the focus would be on Hazel's guitar. Hazel utilized fuzz and wah effects, inspired by his idol Jimi Hendrix; Clinton subsequently added delay and other effects in mixdown, saying "I Echoplexed it back on itself three or four times. That gave the whole thing an eerie feel, both in the playing and in the sound effects."[9] Critics have described the solo as "lengthy, mind-melting" and "an emotional apocalypse of sound."[10]

Douche canoe or ass hat are my top choices. Especially when talking about politics.

 

I have so many questions.

This made me laugh because I did the same thing once. I got super baked and kept a list of all the things I was thinking about. It’s a pretty good read lol

Speaking of good reads, House of Leaves is probably one of my favorite books. If you’re interested in another Ergodic type book, check out Bats of the Republic!

Not that it should be a surprise, but people are getting lost in the shuffle..

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Panamanian national, was mistakenly deported by U.S. immigration authorities despite a court order that should have prevented his removal. During a recent court hearing, Department of Justice officials were unable to confirm his current location, raising serious concerns about accountability and transparency within the immigration system. The case has sparked outrage among advocates and legal experts, who argue that such errors undermine trust in the judicial process and highlight systemic flaws in immigration enforcement.

The incident has prompted calls for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Garcia’s deportation and the apparent communication breakdown between agencies. Legal representatives are demanding immediate action to locate Garcia and ensure his safe return to the U.S. This case underscores the need for robust safeguards to prevent similar occurrences and to uphold the integrity of the immigration system.

 

But the flames on the sign are probably overkill at this point
