    I see "BR" and all I can think is, 'Is Dr. Blunt a fan of Dr. Graffin and Bad Religion?'
    I mean, if you're not, you should be.
    😂 You're ending, lololol. The best thing Kevin Smith ever gave to posterity, at a minimum, the best part of Dogma, was that hearing Alanis' voice would make your head explode.
    Isn't that ironic?
    No. That's not how Irony works, Alanis, buy a fuckin dictionary, yeesh. 😂

      Thanks! I have a lot of time for Bad Religion. They were frequently on my discman as a teenager (holy shit I’m old lol). I just found out that Graffin is a zoologist! Had no idea!

      @@drblunt you should hit him up, see if he wants to collab on something. Worst he can say is no and then what? Nothing changes. Big deal. Go for it amigo. I'll make you both Super Professor costumes if it happens. Hold me to it, I'll do it. I can see it now...
      Intersectionalities off the top of my smooth ape brain I could see like...is teenage angst part of the natural state and/or is it exacerbated by the cruelty necessary to actualize under capitalism? Using the modern anarchopunk subgroup to reframe post-modern/pre-apocalypse nature/nature; to what extent is morality a priori, to what extent is cruelty foundational. Maybe some philosophical musings like; does sonder require a pain threshold be realized before recognition?
      Blah blah blah. You can do much better than me here, I'm sure.
      Damn I've been listening to BR for 30 fucking years now. THIRTY. I've seen them 17 times, lololol. I remember the world before Stranger than Fiction.
      Not fondly mind you, except Bubblegum punk Madonna (to this day, swoon!).
