What happened at Nightmare B4 Xmas?


What's scarier than the color orange?
As the Buddhist Rains Retreat (Vassa) period is ending with a giant celebration of Kathina in Los Angeles, Halloween is just kicking off at the Hollywood Bowl with Danny Elfman presents Disney presents Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas (LIVE). It is a spectacular psychedelic show with live classical music performances, voice actors, a female violin solo, a rock band doing old Oingo Boingo songs as the encore, and lots of amusing music. The Oogie Boogie song got a new performer after the passing of the former voice actor, and he did a magnificent job of some kind of jazz blues low bass reminiscent of Kelsey Grammar singing his show's opening song or The Grinch song.

Tilly Norwood new IT girl; who's Bad Bunny?


A.I. actress sparks backlash and controversy
Tilly Norwood is the new IT girl, and by "IT" we of course mean "information technology."

She is less a robot and more a fictional character generated by A.I., less a hologram and more of a figment of some pervert's imagination made of pixels and dollar signs.

I'm so hot and don't even drink coffee
Hollywood moguls rejoice. Actors mourn. Now there is no need for paid "intimacy coordinators" forced on the film industry by do-gooders and nosy Nancys, no more aging actress with short shelf lives. This solves everything in Elon Musk's coming utopia.

Wiki: An announcement at the Sept. 2025 Zurich Film Festival (ZFF) that Tilly was about to be signed by a talent agency attracted strong criticism from Hollywood actors and firms, prompted allegations of personality rights violations, and led to arguments over the impact of the character on production costs in the media industry. Oh, that's our Tilly! More

A brief history of the man who brainwashed America: Edward Bernays
Uncle Scholmo Ziggy Freud
(A Day in History) While no single man can take full credit blame for the rise of American advertising, Edward Bernays certainly deserves more than most. Known today as “the father of public relations” (called PR), Bernays (the nephew of Sigmund Freud) was responsible for campaigns that changed the lives and minds of the American citizen forever: having a hand in everything from political leaders, to smoking culture, and what [pig-eating] Americans ate for their breakfast. His infamous book Propaganda (book) gave rise to the many rules and regulations of public relations.

How to party before the Super Bowl

PR: We could get more viewers if we add a love interest: Nazi Barbie loves Trey Kay
Chris Farley, seen here with some post-Maloney baloney on his face, is asking, Are you ready?
.
50 Cent's comedy block party: to heck with Puffy
Here's every 2025 Super Bowl party: 20 events including tailgate parties, Post Malone concert, and more (EssentiallySports).

Super Bowl weekend is packed with 20 must-hit events, from high-energy tailgates to A-list concerts! Catch Post Malone live, party with Maxim, or dive into Guy Fieri’s FlavorTown feast—New Orleans is the place to be. Get in on the excitement at least in your dreams.

Meanwhile, in Iowa Slipknot get ready to practice

Drugs are good, I mean bad, Kids. Stay off 'em.
You'll be sitting fat on the couch, sprouting, getting ready to be deep fried as the country uses the Big Game as an excuse to party. The Gladiators are ready. The Coliseum has been cleaned up, and the Christians are ready for a sporting chance against the Lions. (Edgar Cayce would never approve of this).

"Are you ready for some football?" asks Chris Farley. And we answer, "H no," but it doesn't matter. The bandwagon is too loud and too full of partygoers, cheerleaders, and math nerds learning to gamble on statistical probabilities as if sports were not rigged to profit the few while depleting the many.
They say "religion is the opiate of the masses," but it really seems organized sports serve that function in the modern U.S. Preparation for war, obedience training for doggs (and not those cute ones from the Puppy Bowl), observer activities over doing anything, learning to cheerlead, gamble, and drink, not to mention a diet to die for. At least no one's paying attention to Trump, who is so not able to stand the loss of attention that he will be at the big game sucking spotlight from Mahomes.

Punk for a Day w/ Danny Elfman, Iggy Pop


Today is "Punk for a Day" Day, and coincidentally Danny "Oingo Boingo" Elfman appeared on the "Horselaugh and Fred Show" on KLOS (95.5 FM, Los Angeles) to judge some new music for "Stay or Go" on New Music Friday. Elfman is doing of Day of the Dead concert November 2, 2024, at the Hollywood Bowl.
This will serve as his Halloween spectacular which he tries to pull off every year. He leads an orchestra to score films, but he does so much more, including working on a new album. He skyrocketed to fame with Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo (a sound that may be onomatopoeia for a bouncing bedspring) and his appearance in the fifth dimension.


We fell in love on hearing Jed the Fish play a song called "I'm Afraid." It was scary good and catchy, "Peace of mind, peace of mind, hard to keep, hard to find." Oingo Boingo formed, and it was never heard again. There were just too many OB hits like "Only a Lad" filling the airwaves.

Elfman talked a little about the beginnings this morning on the HF Show, in which a sickly woman with an extra-long tongue cleans Fred's crack (Irish craik), his budding side project station, on a regular basis. And she does it some more, imitating Robin Quivers, weekday mornings.

I'm Mad Max, with Jonesy and Jane, and this is CARMAGEDDON, LA

The big news in LA today is "carmageddon," as the LA Dodgers show the New York Yankees what's what with secret weapon Japanese Shohei Ohtani (pronounced \show-me da-muh-nee\), who is bringing thousands of fans over from Japan, where millions monitor him and watch games.
The previous greatest Dodger ever (legendary pitcher Fernando Valenzuela) just passed away this week, so there's extra fervor in Chavez Ravine, site of Dodger Stadium and this evening's game.

But Imagine Dragons is playing, and there about three other big shows around town plus countless Halloween parties everyone's attending. One does not want to drive anywhere.

What better way to commemorate the day than LA's Wasted Youth, a hardcore band from back in the day. They attended Uni High, near UCLA, an iconic place, alma mater for many, including Elfman. (Wasted Youth's "Uni High Beefrag" is a pretty funny song if vulgar and possibly misogynistic with typical sophomoric enthusiasm).


Punk for a Day Day
Today, October 25th, is all about celebrating the punk movement and punk music. This is because the movement is amongst the largest in the world and has some distinguishing factors.

For instance, punks dress in a certain way and possess a non-conformist attitude. Due to this, they are often stereotyped and treated as outsiders.

However, this does not change how great the movement is as people continue to join it even today. Moreover, punk bands are heard across the world, and this form of music is created in different languages. (Think of Pussy Riot yelling in Russian). Here is more on the glorious history of the movement. More

Swift dares to tell Americans what to do

Brian Tyler Cohen, March 6, 2024; Crystal Q., Pfc. Sandoval, CC Liu (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

[Nonpartisan] Taylor Swift does what Republicans have been dreading
I'm a role model. I influence kids. Vote.
(Brian Tyler Cohen) Tennessee Christian and possible Satanist pawn (who sold her soul to Mr. The Devil) had the audacity, the nerve, the gall, and the temerity to suggest to Americans that they vote. WTF? For Goodness sakes, Tay Tay, stay in your lane, which is promoting football game viewing and driving up profits for the NFL like a good cheerleader with a guitar in one hand and a Bible in the other. Do you want to inflame your MAGAott fans just to be on the right side of history? There are conspiracies going on here, Girl. You want young people to vote? Don't you know they'll probably vote for Biden? Then what if Trump starts liking your music even more than by 25%, can you afford that, huh, can you? Leave politics alone. Do ads for Sephora and Spandex, Inc. And leave democracy to the voting machine makers and former Republican strategists who work day and night to control every election they can. Not that Democrats are any better.

Travis 'n Taylor: 'Viva Las Vegas' (Dead Kennedys)

Pfc. Sandoval, Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
Wait, is The King paying me directly from Graceland or is Spotify Corporation? Whatever!


Jello has new music coming out
Jello Biafra
(fronting punk rock legends the Dead Kennedys) sings Elvis' "Viva Las Vegas" to show artist Trey K (rookie singer, professional footballer Travis Swift-Kelce) how it's done.

Trey, it's not a good idea to outshine Taylor "Nazi Barbie" Swift, stealing her limelight if she thinks she's the shinier one in this PR-relationship. But if that's the way you want to play it.

Why would the couple keep doing everything it can to attract even more eyes for any conspiracy the alphabet agencies may want to run through Team Traylor? Who knows. So go for it. But sing it right!


(Entertainment Tonight) Feb. 13th, 2024: TayTay and Trey K bring their PR "Love Story" [because she has probably banned him from covering DK's "Viva Las Vegas"] to the dance floor for the ubiquitous cameras and live microphones. ET has learned more about the couple's post-Super Bowl LVIII celebration at Wynn Las Vegas’ XS nightclub after the Kansas City Chiefs just barely beat the San Francisco 49ers. An eyewitness tells ET the two were spotted enjoying the night as they danced together in the DJ booth while singing along to Taylor's song "Love Story." Travis and Taylor ("Traylor" as in Trailer Park) were also seen 'exchanging affectionate gestures' throughout the evening, including sharing "celebratory kisses."

Trump, Taylor, Travis, Biden, 'n the Bowl (JKL)

Jimmy Kimmel Live (JKL), 2/12/24; Seth Auberon, Pfc. Sandoval (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
You're not nice, Donald, you're not nice! I'll vote for Uncle Gene. Joe, even if he is a molester.
No, you stupid bird brain, don't endorse Biden. Endorse me. I'll make you secretary of state. - I don't want to be a secretary. - No, dummy, it's a cabinet position. - I don't want to be furniture.

Trump lashes out at Taylor Swift, Chiefs win the Super Bowl, Joe Biden trolls conspiracy theorists
(Jimmy Kimmel Live) Jimmy and Guillermo spent the weekend in Vegas for the Super Bowl, where the Chiefs took home the Lombardi Trophy, there were many notable Super Bowl commercials including several for religion (both Christianity and the opposite, Scientology), Trump went after Taylor Swift on Truth Social, Joe Biden took to Instagram to post a rant about “shrinkflation,” a new Super Bowl edition of Drunk Donald Trump, and the world premiere of the official promo for the 96th Oscars on March 10th at 7:00 Eastern |4:00 pm on ABC.

Taylor 'Nazi Barbie' Swift: "Karma is my b/f"

I'm thinking of throwing the election to Genocide Joe. Do you think Travis is MAGA or will be mad?Travis Kelce's dad reveals what the ‘real’ Taylor 'Nazi Barbie' Swift is like (today.com)
Who dares to report on a sitting president and expose him? Mr. Jeff Rense.com
.
These Democrats would have been better candidates than Joe Biden (msn.com)
.
It's one thing to hate Trump, another to like Biden
Taylor Swift will be vilified by millions of [MAGAot] Americans and risk her own safety if she endorses [senile Genocidal] Joe Biden in the 2024 election, a top talent agent has warned.
The Love Story singer’s fame has reached dizzying heights in the months since she began dating Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce ("TrayLor" couple name), with pictures of their pitch-side kiss reverberating around the world last month.

I'll turn the Nazis against you, Barbie!
In the buildup to 2024’s Super Bowl today, there has been more discussion about how Swift, 34, will have had to cross nine time-zones after her Saturday night show in Tokyo, Japan, to make it to Las Vegas in time for kick-off of football's biggest game, than there has been about the rival teams’ quarterbacks.
Holy war against the star
Who would YOU vote for? I'll vote for anyone Taylor tells me to! I let her make my decision.
.
I order you to stay out of it, you red b, uh, witch.
Amid speculation of her impending support for Genocide Joe Biden, Don John Trump’s allies were said to be plotting a “holy war” against the star.

It sparked right-wing conspiracy theories including claims Swift is a secret Pentagon agent and her relationship with football player Travis Kelce has been fabricated to bolster Biden.
COMMENTARY

My farts are adorable, and Travis loves them.
The conspiracy theory says she's an unwitting CIA operative who's going to make a big announcement today at the Big Game, aka the Great Plate, and encourage her legions of sycophantic followers to vote for war and more war, vote for senility, vote to fund more genocide, vote for our child molester in chief Genocidal Joe. Will she do it? (Yes, but probably not today. Today is a day for all the bookies and bettors to rake in billions because THE FIX IS IN. All professional sports betting is tampered with.

Vote for Biden, and I will destroy you, Swift
Therefore, since everyone is so sure the San Franciso 49ers are going to lose and betting by how much, wouldn't it be much more profitable to have Travis (Kansas Chiefs No. 1 social media star) throw the game? Or something to upset millions of bettors? It happens time and time again.

Tell them to vote for me, Nazi Barbie, uh, Taylor.
While most of the money this year is on side bets like what color "Nazi Barbie" will be wearing at the game (red) or how many times the camera will cut to her (101 times), or will she fart and say excuse me to Travis' mother before halftime (yes but a silent but deadly one with no need for an excuse me until Mrs. Kelce catches wind, but which time it will be too late), for example.

Don't bet if U know what's good for U
The FIX IS IN. The game is rigged.

I bake for who I want to, Mr. Donald. You won't tell me how to vote! I might endorse Nikki.
Don't worry, Joe. You're part of the Illuminati. The fix is in, no matter what Swift does.
