..because I'm about to pee and poop myself:
Portishead (currently recording their 4th album) has announced that they will be hosting/headlining the two-day "I'll Be Your Mirror" event next July. Now a Portishead live show is worthy of soiling your drawers as it is, but opening for Portishead on Day 1 will be DOOM (!) and Company Flow (!!), and Beach House (among others) on Day 2 . Will DOOM and Beth Gibbons appear on stage together?!? A duet, per chance!? Oh! The mind reels!
Unfortunately, this musical extravaganza will be taking place in some place called 'London'. It appears that I will have to expedite the construction of my Organic Matter TransporterTM (which wasn't supposed to be unveiled until 2012) in order to beam myself across the pond to bear witness to this awesomeness.

I Have No Words For This...
*UPDATE* - Apparently, Rand Paul has learned right quick to fall in line with the rest of the conservative establishment: he has already flip-flopped on his vow to ban all earmarks. It barely took one week...
Election Results!
Did you vote yesterday? Of course, you didn’t. That was a dumb question. My apologies.
Stoners Fail to Outnumber Old White People… Wait, What?!
California’s Prop 19 -- the initiative to legalize and tax pot -- lost by nine percentage points. California, my future home, will one day have open air weed farmers’ markets. And weed will be sold in Whole Foods, where underpaid new employees will offer you samples of Bubblegum Kush and Gelato Pine. It will be a great day to be a Californian. But until that day, we will simply have to go through the taxing process of telling a doctor we sometimes get anxious so they’ll give us a medical marijuana card. Which, when you think about it, is fucking awesome. So, the state of California decided not to make their state even more awesome than it already is. I’m fine with that.
Dan Quayle’s Son Wins Congressional Seat
Fuck Arizona. I’ve never been there, I will never go there, and I’m pretty safe in the knowledge that I am missing absolutely nothing. Ben Quayle? Really? Fuck you, Arizona.
GOP Assumes Control of House
Oh, no! I guess the Obama administration will have to curtail all those banking regulations, right? Wait, they did already? Okay, so that means that Obama will have to shelve all those liberal policies he had waiting in his holster, yeah? Jesus. What does it mean that I want both political parties to fail miserably?
Sarah Palin: Inexplicably Still a Famous Political-Type Person
Ms. Palin said recently that she would run for president in 2012 only if no other suitable conservative candidates can be identified. That’s like saying I’d like to go out with you, but only if I know we’re going to fuck later. Yeah, if I’m assured the GOP nomination, I’ll give it go, but if there’s any competition, fuck that shit; I’ve got my reality TV show career to think about.
America to Incumbents: Go Fuck Yourselves
To paraphrase Benjamin Linus: America is a fickle bitch. If you’re in power, you’re the cause of all the problems we have at that moment. Nevermind that you’ve maybe only had two years on the job to try and un-fuck the country from eight years of the constant and unwarranted Bush/Cheney rapestakes. It doesn’t matter who preceded you; it’s your fault. But don’t worry. When you don’t get reelected, it will stop being your fault, and it will become the next guy’s fault. Then you can assume a board position at an investment back or energy conglomerate, and clean up. See, incumbents, it’s not so bad after all.
