HAVE YOU READ...

Punk Land by Carlton Mellick III



If you are a traditional reader, that is, pretty much anyone who reads often too much, and prefers meaningful and mature boring stories, then Bizarro fiction isn't for you. The book takes place in Punk Land, the punk version of Heaven. The main character has a pet dildo and joins team with a mysterious blue haired deadly vixen called "Shark Girl". Their goal? To stop "corporate punks", who transformed punk land from a once free land to one full of restrictions and requirements in order to be considered "punk". The book is full of bizarre dark comedy, and illustrations that are beyond hilarious. If you like Punk, odd humor, or just wanna give Bizzarro fiction a shot, try this one for starters!

HAVE YOU SEEN...

The Paintings of Fransisco Goya



Fransisco Goya (1746-182😎 was a Spanish artist, during the time of Napolean's reign in Europe. He painted many popular pieces in his life, consisting of portraits, such as one of Napolean's brother who ruled Spain briefly, and dark depictions of his inner thoughts regarding war and life. Many of his works are visually shocking, especially for their time, and his "Black Paintings" are the climax which he painted during the end of his life. I think of his style similar to Edgar Allen Poe's writings. One piece, "Saturn Devouring His Son" is based off of the Greek/Roman god Cronus, who ate his children before the last, Zeus, killed him. Most believe his last works were greatly impacted by creeping insanity in the last few years of his life, along with the large amounts of war and death he'd witnessed which made him bitter towards humanity.

HAVE YOU HEARD...

The Dead Milkmen



My favorite band and my "gateway" into punk, which I had stumbled across just over 10 years ago. They brought fun into the punk scene of the 80's. Known for their lighthearted songs, hits like "Punk Rock Girl" and "Bitchin Camaro", they eventually dissolved after their lyrics became more and more serious, which turned off some of their original fan base. Their bassist, Dave Blood, became very fascinated with Serbia and Yugoslavia's people and culture, and studied the region's language. Eventually after his suicide, the band reunited in the 2000's and has continued to play since.

MY CURRENT MISSION

I've halted the tournament due to lack of participation. In the meantime, I'll finish up this term as PP of ILP and Dail member. I've started our discussion thread, and will restart it in a few days with all those who recently accepted friend requests. I'll be assisting the upcoming government in diplomatic affairs when I'm needed as well.
