🩲 Eagle-eye Phooligan Julie De Reu found a photo of Christmas lights in Heidelberg, Germany, that look like GIANT SPARKLY PANTIES HANGING IN THE SKY 🩲 Julie had to send me the photo, because it epitomizes the ultimate PANTIES ON THE OUTSIDE 1/4

Tonight!

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

Hey, I'm working on a practical book about making it through long-term disasters and emergencies. The best part? It's not going to disappear when the internet does. www.the-sentinel-intelligence.net/project-c/

We are GO for SHOW!

My PLAN is to be live tonight at 6pm Central US time... BUT there is currently an internet outage in my area, which is projected to be resolved by 5:30 p.m. Central US time. I'll let you know! 😬📶🚫

Doin' a HECKIN' SHOW this Friday. We need a PhooleOut Shelter retreat. Friday, 14 Nov 2025, 6pm Central US time at slipmat.io/phoole, mixcloud.com/live/phoole and twitch.tv/phoole! #onlineParty #COVIDIsNotOver #StayHomeStaySafe #DanceAtHome #FilterHouse #FrenchTouch #TechHouse #dnb #bebop #jazz

Sending rest and blue skies and leaves that only fall into their designated areas (well-behaved leaves that never, ever clog city sewers or obfuscate citizens' carefully cultivated lawns). And also miraculous last-minute funding sources for your hard-working crew.

I so badly hoped to do a show this week. But I just can’t. I’m so sorry. Some really heavy stuff has happened at my dayjob, and it has ground me all the way down. It wouldn’t be right for me to get on air this week. I got nuthin’. I will try to collect myself for next Friday. phoole.com

New supervillain: 1920s-era socialite who secretly hunts down anyone who invokes THE GREAT GATSBY without having read the book or having understood the point of it, and runs them over with a yellow Rolls Royce. Or shoots them in a swimming pool.

I have had the most hectic work week, my country is collapsing, and we've killed our home planet. So forgive me for indulging in being delighted that my favorite damn band in the universe, The Young Punx, now INCLUDE ME on their next album, out in 2026! soundcloud.com/theyoungpunx...

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Recharge in the PhooleOut Shelter with a COVID-safe Halloween party you can enjoy anytime, anywhere: rewind Phooleoween at phoole.com/rewind! Thank you @winni4u.bsky.social for the kooky captures!

I don’t want to spoil anything, but something on Page 149 of @theauthorguy.bsky.social’s ANIMA RISING made me bark with laughter in a way that I did not think that particular thing would ever, ever make me laugh again, especially given this ridiculous fucking world we live in today.

You know the artist was a genius when the fans are producing edits this good MF Doom x Space Ghost x Adult Swim youtu.be/xyM9JYaTbic?...

Have patience with someone who doesn't look like they're actively resisting. They might, for example, be shielding someone who, in a concentration camp, would die, painfully, in one to two days, without their vast regimen of medications and food on demand. Covert resistance also exists.
