Radical Feminist Punk Rock Band's First Song

Hot Mess is back! And they're rehearsing their would-be hit single in cousin Bernie's new game room. Take it away, Hot Mess.

My Doppelganger's Uncle

I wrote here not too long ago about my email doppelganger--a born-again real estate agent from Texas who, through circumstances beyond my control, shares my name and email address. I recently received email from her Uncle, who thought he was sending it to her. Oh, I'll let the NSFW cartoon explain it. Somehow it's easier that way.

In the Alley with Lady Gaga

I just watched a new Lady Gaga video and now feel the urge to return to the church and confess my sins for hopefully some kind of salvation. The ultimate question surrounding what we know of Gaga is, "Is she a genius or is she full of it?" I think the fact that this question comes up over and over throughout the World Wide Web gives credence to the fact that no one really knows the answer, probably including Gaga herself, and I guess that's...interesting. Is it necessary? The folks in the music industry think so and they've been seriously hurting for someone to come along and distract us enough to send our money flowing in their direction.

And HERE SHE IS! I give her credit. She's a money maker. She's a costume wearer and she's a catchy songstress of edgy dance material. She's also needlessly creepy and cadges too much from olden-days Madonna and 80s-era club kids. They formed a gang of crazy costumed party-goers cobbled together out of creativity, drug abuse and poverty, which became so excessive it morphed into homicidal maniacism.

She's more like a club kid who hires her gang to be backup dancers and film crew. And that's OK because in today's crazy-wazy world of stratospheric unemployment, it's nice that a group of people can rightfully say, "My boss is Gaga!"

The Sell Outs

When last we checked in with radical feminist punk rock band, Hot Mess, they were on a song-writing roll. Let's look in on their first rehearsal.



Exposé - Point of No Return. Don't you miss the 80s? Me neither.

Robots Process Classic Movie Robots

I made one of the robots a female. Shocking, I know.

SFGate Comments Comix - Vol. 4

It's been a while for SFGate Comments Comix. The recession and cut-backs at SFGate seemed to have toned down the commenters of late. There may even be a moderator of sorts, but if so, I'm sure it's an intern moderator, who can't be working every day. Vitriol will ALWAYS have its day on SFGate.com.

Today's story is a hard-hitting expose about serial killers and the women who love them. This time around, the top-ranked comments are featured in animated form. Isn't technology grand?

Radical Feminist Punk Rock Band

This one made my eyes pop out of my head. I don't know why it was so hard to put together. And then when I was finishing it, I thought XtraNormal swallowed it forever, giving me an embarrassing case of creative angst. I mean, can I mourn the passing of something so ephemeral and practically useless? I found out I can, if the amount of time put into it is exponential. Turns out it was still there in the server somewhere. What have I learned from this process? Always save your work, and don't work on stupid stuff too much.

p.s. Look for future Hot Mess music videos right here! Ahem.

Jon & Kate Talk It Out

The Gosselins discuss the state of their relationship in their own words. Sorry, but I cannot resist this animation site for dummies. You will all (all six of you) just have to suffer through my new hobby.

My Doppelganger

I hate seeing myself on film so I'm having my avatar stand in for me. Here, she talks about my email doppelganger. Enjoy.
