Hey, Nerds
And with your spirit.
This Week’s Motivation
Fuck. Me.
Ready To Discuss! Anyone? Buehler?
We just watched the season finale Sunday and I want to talk about it, goddammit! And if any of you bastards are on the fence, I can say without hesitation that WandaVision was a very pleasant surprise. Disney may have fucked up the Star Wars movies, but Kevin Feige is running a tight ship.
The Best Thing You’ll See All Week

The Cybertronic Spree is a band of Transformers who perform whatever the hell they want including 80’s metal, classic rock, classic cartoons, video game, and anime theme songs at full volume. Their metal anthems, based around the soundtrack from the 1986 animated film, The Transformers: The Movie, have since transformed into a one-of-a-kind live show that has audiences singing along.

Music Will Save Us All?
As this site’s extremely senior medical correspondent, I’m happy to report that I received my first COVID 5g chip a couple of weeks ago and am scheduled to inject the second one tonight. My corpuscles and sinews have nearly hit the intended full metal zone vibrato. More on the uh, science, here.
No Such Thing As Too Much
Bitch!
