Wait. "Confliction" isn't a word? Why not? Should be a word. Like... Oblivia. Nomatter. Something about recent Eurowasteland vote debacle. Wait. So maybe I should use the word debacle? Stop. Nomatter. Points of view in Eurowasteland is confliction. (Great sentence, eh?) Or is it parliamentary pseudo governance in Eurowasteland being buzzwords and not governance? Nomatter. Some articles to promote … Continue reading Confliction

Origin Of The Origin?
How confusing. To think one has figured out the problem. But why? Why figure out the problem? The politics of ignorance will go on all the same. But I digress. Getting to something is one thing. Getting back from that something is the other. The Real Origins of the Religious Right - Randall Balmer - … Continue reading Origin Of The Origin?
Killer Privilege
Ah. Another shooting. Another shooting by some kid so doped-up that it's time to close the blinds, pull down the shades, staple the eyelids shut. For this one might just be scarier than the last one. The last shooting, that is. Or wait. This new one only killed seven...or is it six? Wait. The … Continue reading Killer Privilege
Confused Success
As a locked-in take-my-money Apple slave (not to demean the real slaves putting these devices together), I have no fear in the following claim: there is love to be found for Microsoft's Surface. Last year, with my 2010 MacBookPro reaching it's limits, I had to make a decision. First, even though a new MacBookAir was in the plan, I … Continue reading Confused Success
$200m Website
Oh, dear worst-reader. The news is slow of late. I think it has something to do with journalism being owned these days. You know. Owned like religion, wives and copyrights. So I found myself dredging more than usual this morn to find something of interest and a potential subject to worst-right about. Thank goodness the … Continue reading $200m Website
Tone It Down: Intelligence
Worst-writer has no qualms with the common man. Misanthropy be damned. And these gentleman (see video at the link below) deserve respect. In fact, they command it. You can tell, worst-reader, that they are truly on the verge of eruption. Yet some degree of self-awareness, self-respect and being born of (some) mother, held them back. So let's all … Continue reading Tone It Down: Intelligence
Worst Issue #58
Dear worst-reader, here another exchange, like this one, where opposing points of view are exposed. Good luck. Friend wrote: Dude, check out this link. This is not a mistake. I would bet the oil companies in the US are backdoor funding radical groups who oppose the Keystone pipeline. Some refiners invested heavily to process the … Continue reading Worst Issue #58
Crazy Elvis vs Edward Snowden
While most ask what would Jesus do, worst-writer asks: what would Elvis do? In the case of Edward Snowden I'm seriously confused about what to do. When the news about Snowden's leak first hit and I was able to wrap my head around it, I thought: where's the info? Seriously. Wikileaks was still all over the … Continue reading Crazy Elvis vs Edward Snowden
Confused Protest(ation)
Misguided? Not sure. Government so gun-ho on reigning in the <sarcasm on> dangerous Interwebnets <sarcasm off> that any kind of protest is worthwhile protest. Or? But what's clear about recent Net Neutrality effort on the part of big government and even bigger corporatism is that this most recent attempt to control it has mostly to … Continue reading Confused Protest(ation)
Global Capitalism: April 2014 Monthly Update
For those who think: watch. For those who watch faux newz: think. For those who'd rather get a cold one and cruise the strip mall with a full tank of... Vid here.
Laugh It Off
Why I indirectly use Facebook and other FB wannabees. For me, FB first caught my attention because of all the share links available on whatever website I was reading. Those buttons were initially a great way to manage bookmarks as up to that point I had been using Delicious, which is cumbersome and monotonous. Share buttons have subsequently been replaced … Continue reading Laugh It Off
Prank The Automaton
http://youtu.be/EyaZlt-Xr_A Activist group The Yes Men nail it again. These guys are so awesome they're beyond funny. Seriously. It's as though funny starts at a certain point with them and 180 degrees later it's still funny but then again it's not. Dark humour? Dark Parody? Dark... You know what I worst-mean. But then again. Wait. Nomatter. Check … Continue reading Prank The Automaton
Newz #002
A: But sirrah, I say to you, I'm not intolerant. B: You are, you just don't know it. A: Therefore, this feeling I have, this inner burning sensation, means that I hate everybody? Short pause. A: But sirrah, that can't be. B: Oh it can--just as you were born. Short pause. B: And now I … Continue reading Newz #002
End Finally Near
http://youtu.be/VdyKAIhLdNs Unfortunately the end is hardly near. But it should be. The main worst-question to contemplate today is thus: how much will GM pay in fines to the government after the faulty ignition scandal is over? The logical answer to that question is: will the paid fines actually have anything to do with the crime … Continue reading End Finally Near
Papa Bear Tech Hug
https://youtu.be/r028SroE6Uk First post in 2014. Happy worst-new-year! Now. On to the more important worst-stuff. Don't you just wanna hug this guy! For worstWriter, Kim Dotcom, aka Kim Schmitz from Kiel, is a rare case of self-aggrandisement that is A-OK. I really luv this guy. Reason? No matter what he does, no matter what drives him, he … Continue reading Papa Bear Tech Hug
Shooter And The Sweet Doctor
Probably one of the best ad libitum responses yet to American'ts lust for blood, guts, repression-glory and forgetting about seeds sewn and moving on to the next mall purchase. Trauma centre head doctor, Dr. Janis Orlowski, did a great job responding to this dire situation (see also vid and links below). Yet worst-writer can't help … Continue reading Shooter And The Sweet Doctor
Exceptional Mediocrity
Barry O is trying. You have to give him that. Vladimir Putin is trying, too. I guess. But there's something else about these two men. It's as though they're already bored with a history that will, in the most important ways, pass them by because of über-under-achievement. Thank goodness that rational human beings know that in … Continue reading Exceptional Mediocrity
Interwebnet Orwell Wet Dream
Post is NSFW and rude and proud of it. Cool how all this "leaked" data is trickling down through the convenient pipes of the Interwebnets via well advertised news sites. But all serious kidding aside. How much is Glenn Greenwald earning from all this? What? Wrong question? Americans are more concerned not about the profits of … Continue reading Interwebnet Orwell Wet Dream
Whose Doctrine
Ok. First. I probably shouldn't post something where my worst-writing is shorter than links. But in this case… Nomatter. The scariest thing about what the west is doing right now, beyond all the murder, mayhem, lying and lust for control of you-know-what, is how long it will take to finally move on. That is, when will … Continue reading Whose Doctrine
Wunder Wunderkinder
Wunderlist by 6Wunderkinder. More than just a mediocre run-of-the-mill cloud app? Yes and no. Worst-writer recommends its use--as a shopping list to be shared between iOS devices. I reckon it's also a great enterprise utility where corporatists can coordinate data and to-do lists in the cloud. But I'll never get to see that part of … Continue reading Wunder Wunderkinder
Hammer Nail
http://youtu.be/9RC1Mepk_Sw The drums of war beating again? Or maybe they've never stopped. Or. Maybe it was never meant to be any other way than to live by the murderous sword of death for hegemony. Who knows. Wait. Maybe there are those who do know. "If every problem you have is a hammer than everything has … Continue reading Hammer Nail
Get The ?uck Out Of The Way
Everything will not be ok, dear worst-reader. But that doesn't matter. In the immediate short term, the thinkers among us can rejoice that for at least a few seconds the world might be(come) a place lacking in corporate American't dysfunction as Steve Ballmer decides to… finally get the *uck out of the way. You know, … Continue reading Get The ?uck Out Of The Way
Crescent Change
Ever watch a crescent moon change? Sometimes you can actually watch the crescent change until daylight gets in the way. All you have to do is put down that drink or joint for about 2 hours and remain there on your back while the bugs crawl from the grass onto your neck and behind you … Continue reading Crescent Change
Miss Protest
The first protest I ever experienced in Eurowasteland goes back to circa 1986. Was visiting Germanian and happened across a demonstration. Not sure what they were demonstrating against but it really doesn't matter. After that I found myself seeking out these protests more and more. Reason? What a great way to pick up armpit hairy … Continue reading Miss Protest
Trickle Fail Up
Is it fail upwards or is it trickle upwards? You know, the question that best represents where we are today in this dog eat ice cream but enjoy yourself anyway world? Wait. Or. Should the question be another question? Perhaps we should resort, dear worst-reader, to questions better fit for the norm? That is, let's … Continue reading Trickle Fail Up
