You can sell people anger easily because they’ve already bought it.

Today’s Slackful Recommendation:

Little Shops - Museums, hotels, hospitals, and more all have little shops filled with the most amazing things. From kitschy cards to intensely local memorabilia, from super-specialized books to odd snack selections, a little shop is an adventure in “this is here for a reason.” A little shop can put a smile on your face and helps you really get to know a place or establishment.

Man remember having one of these in your bathroom? Or was it just me?

I speculate that those happily mixing politics and religion seem so "insecurely confident" for a reason. https://www.xenofact.com/2023/11/19/the-insecurity-of-politics-and-religion/

Making money off of conspiracy theories is one of the world’s biggest conspiracies.

Today’s Slackful Recommendation:

Burritos - Burritos are one of the ultimate food experiences - a bag of simple, delicious food where you can eat the bag! There’s also the visceral satisfaction of having a meal in one, big roll that you can pick up and feel!

One thing I truly thank the Church of the SubGenius for is that it got me into messing around with art again. Years later I'm making zines, weird adds, and actually using my skills on my Conspiracy job in less "Bob"-centric ways.

You can't prove that getting the Dobbstown Mirror WONT make you a rich sex machine who's famous.

As I look at great SubGenius literature, and my love of the totally metal art of geniuses like Albrecht Dürer I realize they're similar. Vast, detailed, complex, maddeningly filled with symbols.

Sometimes convenience is just a way to give you more time to make someone ELSE money.

I used to rewatch this episode over and over on videotape.

For some reason, if I turn the tape over and watch it I lose an hour.

I just spent 3 hours formatting a SubGenius zine.

It is worth it. So worth it. All "Bob" pain is really money in the form of neural signals.

The holidays are coming up! So why not buy people - and yourself - some solid SubGenius literature at https://www.SubGenius.com/

Can a magical/mystical viewpoint be practical? In many ways it IS - if you're aware of it and apply it.
