I Want Candy

Augustus Gloop
Taking A Chocolate Swim

Today is a quite delicious sort of day...what day is it? You ask. It's National Chocolate Day! 

Celebrate it by taking time out to indulge in something yummy of the chocolate kind. But don't get too self indulgent.

Remember what happened to Augustus Gloop when he got greedy on the banks of the chocolate river in Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory...

Enjoy, and don't Gloop it up!!!

"Low Life Club"

South Bay–born, Nashville-based alternative/pop-punk artist MEGG has released her new EP Low Life Club.

A collection of six raw and unapologetic tracks, cements MEGG’s status as one of pop-punk’s boldest new voices. Blending pop sensibility with punk-rock roots, she’s built a sound that’s rebellious, catchy, and deeply personal — a fearless soundtrack for tomboys, romantics, loudmouths, and misfits alike. Channeling Gwen Stefani’s swagger, Hayley Williams’ firepower, and Joan Jett’s grit, MEGG brings early-2000s energy into a modern, unapologetically self-defined era.

“‘Low Life Club’ feels like the unofficial soundtrack to the West Coast and is easily some of the best music I’ve ever put out,” she adds. “It’s multidimensional — the heaviness, the vulnerability, the riot, the vocal chops, the nostalgia, the party, and everything in between. It’s got a little something for everyone. I’m really proud of these songs and stoked to give them to my fans.”

A graduate of USC’s inaugural Popular Music Performance Program, MEGG has been tearing up stages across the country — from headlining hometown venues like Saint Rocke (Hermosa Beach) to packing The End (Nashville). She’s shared stages with KISS and The Used, opened at Musink, and recently performed at the 30th Anniversary Vans Warped Tour in Long Beach. She’s also sung the National Anthem for the LA Dodgers, LA Galaxy, and LA Sparks at Crypto.com Arena.

Following a string of singles in 2024 — including the bratty fan-favorite “IDC” (currently spinning on SiriusXM’s The Pop Off and 107.7 The Bone’s Bone Breakers) — MEGG continues to build momentum toward Low Life Club. Earlier tracks like “Get Over It” and “The End” gave fans a taste of what’s to come, showcasing her knack for combining anthemic hooks with raw emotion and unapologetic attitude.

Same Old Love

Bride of Frankenstein
Elsa Lanchester 

"Take away your things and go

You can't take back what you said, I know
I've heard it all before, at least a million times
I'm not one to forget, you know

I don't believe, I don't believe it
You left in peace, left me in pieces
Too hard to breathe, I'm on my knees
Right now, 'ow

I'm so sick of that same old love, that shit, it tears me up
I'm so sick of that same old love, my body's had enough
Oh, that same old love
Oh, that same old love" - Same Old Love, Selena Gomez 

Bride of Frankenstein is one of my favorite films. It was made in 1935 and stars Elsa Lanchester in the title role.

I watch it every year around Halloween and it's themes and story still ring true to contempoary times. 

Only 5 more days until Halloween...

Current Mood

With all the insanity happening in the world at present this meme of Stephen King's Carrie best sums up my Current Mood.

Life is a balance and while I do think one should pay attention to what's happening around them. I also believe there is much to be thankful for and one should keep yourself centered and calm.

My personal go-to activities are meditation and yoga. Also I tend to look at the smallest of things with a sense of appreciation and awe. Like nature for example.

TGIF! 

Bend it like Carrie White Minions!!!

Michael's Musings

Welcome To My Underworld
Michael Shinafelt

"Yeah, it's a good thing I like my friends cancelled (cancelled)

I salute you if you're much too much to handle
Like my whiskey sour (I like it)
And poison thorny flowers (I love it)
Can't you see my infamy loves company?
Now they've broken you like they've broken me
But a shattered glass is a lot more sharp
And now you know exactly who your friends are

You know who we are
We're the ones with matching scars" - Taylor Swift, Cancelled 

You've mastered surviving, now it's time to live

Thank you for making that announcement no one cared about...

When the "G" falls off the graveyard sign. Think about it, but not too much.

Forget your ego, remember your soul

Show me your best F#cking Chicken Dance, that's all

My Drag Name? Pussy Malfeasance...the more you know

8 more days until Halloween...Boo!

Hump Day & Chill

Sabrina Carpenter

Sabrina Carpenter is glad we like her sexual content, indeed we do!

Very much so that we are going to Hump Day & Chill to it. 

What is more sexual than Ms. Carpenter's song Tears? I ask you? Thus here are some of the lyrics to get your Hump Day & Chill on with...

"A little initiative can go a very long, long way
Baby, just do the dishes, I'll give you (What you, what you, what you want)
A little communication, yes, that's my ideal foreplay
Assemble a chair from IKEA, I'm like, "Uh" (Uh)

I get wet at the thought of you (Uh-huh)
Being a responsible guy (So responsible)
Treating me like you're supposed to do (Uh-huh)
Tears run down my thighs"

Now that's how you put the "Hump" in Hump Day & Chill!!!
