Subj: Poooooocaaaaaan

A 1-bit Picture of a Poocan. A can for poo.

So. Do you have a dog?

I have a dog. And it poos. Usually when I’m miles from a bin.

So on my Easter holidays I made the Poocan (rhymes with Toucan). Pop your dogs’ stinky gifts in it while you enjoy the rest of your nice long walk.

People who’ve bought them, love them.

If you have a dog - and you’re not the kind of dickhead who lets it crap everywhere - you need a Poocan.

Subj: Crisp Sandwiches and the prime minister

I think that whoever we elect next for prime minister has to be a devoted lover of crisp sandwiches. And we should ONLY vote for members of the newly formed crisp sandwich cult. Said sandwiches should also be made the official national food of England.

Thank you for these few seconds of your time.
Sincerely Gideon.

Subj: Fireball

Fireball. Really? Fire-ball? Ball of flames? You have the ENTIRE magical weave at your disposal and all you can think of is over the top candle? Lame. 2 out of 10. Occasionally useful, but disappointing.

This is part of a new series I'm hoping will work out where I rate DnD spells.

Subj: [CONFIDENTIAL] op. "Freaky Fast" NOT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE

#1 "The Pepe"

AGENCY: [DATA EXPUNGED]
DATE: 2025-07-18
SUBJECT: Ongoing Assessment of "Jimmy John's" Food Service Chain - Operation "FREAKY FAST"
CLASSIFICATION: TS/SCI - NOFORN - ORCON

I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Initial intelligence strongly suggests the commercially branded "Jimmy John's" food service chain is operating as a front for illicit temporal displacement and dietary control experimentation. Designated "Operation FREAKY FAST," preliminary findings indicate a deliberate conditioning of the civilian populace towards future consumption methodologies and acceptance of non-linear temporal food delivery. The purported "sandwiches" serve as a vector for these highly sensitive operations.

II. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW - "FREAKY FAST" CONSPIRACY:
A. Temporal Displacement & Delivery Vector ("Freaky fast")
Intelligence indicates "Jimmy John's" delivery speeds are anomalous, exceeding known logistical capabilities. Analysis suggests the deployment of localized, miniature "temporal rifts" to transport products from preparation points to consumers instantly. This method accounts for the extraordinary freshness, as the product is effectively "pulled" from a recent past temporal signature. Data modeling predicts a 99.8% efficiency rate, far surpassing that of conventional transport.

B. Chrono-Dietary Engineering & Control ("No Substitutions"):
The stringent "no substitutions" policy is assessed not as a commercial limitation, but as a critical operational safeguard. The pre-determined sandwich configurations are hypothesized to be precisely calibrated for maximum temporal sta-------DATA STREAM TERMINATED

Subj: The Best Film You’ve Never Seen

Plummer vs Gould

No. 29: The Silent Partner (1978)

In this Canadian thriller based on a Danish novel, Christopher Plummer’s bank robbery goes very wrong, resulting in a tense cat-and-mouse conflict with bank teller Elliott Gould.

It’s one of those grimy ’70s films where everyone is up to no good and seemingly ordinary people slip deeper and deeper into crime, there’s no saintly ā€˜goodie’ to root for.

Gould is so laidback he can seem weirdly detached, but that works for the character, while Plummer gets to ham it up as the sadistic killer. Susannah York and Celine Lomez don’t get such interesting roles, but are also immersed in the moral murkiness.

This first film from Carolco (Rambo films, Total Recall, Terminator 2, Basic Instinct, etc) was well-received, winning awards in Canada, but smaller ’70s films tend to get overlooked nowadays vs the cinema-redefining blockbusters of that era. This one’s clever enough to be well worth watching; crime does pay.

In the US, The Silent Partner is apparently on Kanopy. It doesn’t seem to be available on streaming at all in the UK, but you can get it on disc and it shows up on TV occasionally.

Subj: Invention Logs #2

Hello future and current inventors!
This is the second of many inventions carefully engineered and tested to perfection by yours truly. Last time we talked about hand slippers but today we got something a little different in store for you, the reader. This logs invention is the Weightless Weights(TM)! This creation allows you seem to be able to lift weights twice your size when in reality, you’re merely lifting something the weight of a small bean bag. With the Weightless Weights(TM), you’ll be able to impress the bros and get the girls for just 59.99. However, some may ask what if someone else wants to lift the Weightless Weights(TM)? Well dear viewer, with a click of a secret button, the atoms inside these weights will multiply, increasing the density and weight of said weights in a mere 0.48 seconds. Last time the Hand Slippers (TM) sold out in one day so make sure to get the Weightless Weights(TM) fast for 59.99. See ya next time on Invention Logs and remember to always keep inventing, investing, and innovating!

(There have recently been a large group of clients who have complained of their Hand Slippers(TM) coming to life and crawling into the walls of their houses similar to that one hand from the Adam’s Family. In case of this happening, lure the slippers out with socks and then squirt lemon juice on the nails of the slippers which will cause them to return to normal or mutate into a full human body. Hope this helps!)

Subj: some goth music recs

siouxsie sioux and robert smith

goth is a music and values based subcultures. basically, if you don't like the music and share the values (progressive politics, inclusive, no conservatives), you're a poser. the typical goth look is just convention, goths can look however we want. the music originated in the UK as a branch of punk - that era's known as 'post punk', but since then, goth has expanded to include dark wake, gothic rock, gothabilly, industrial goth, and more. the first ever 'goth' song is generally considered Bauhaus' bela lugosi's dead: a minimalistic post-punk instrumental with lyrics so undeniably gothic it set off a whole movement.

here are some essential goth tracks:

bauhaus(my all-time favs) (sharp guitar, minimalistic instrumentals, lots of yelling, manic at times, experimental): bela lugisi's dead, dancing, the sanity assassin, in the flat field, a god in an alcove, st vitus dance, muscle in plastic

siouxsie and the banshees (art pop esque, theatrical): monitor, spellbound, dear prudence, helter skelter, killing jar

the cure (soft electric guitar, prose, strained vocals): just like heaven, boys don't cry, close to me, in between days, why can't i be you

the cramps (degenerate subject matter lol, gothabilly, lots of fun): goo goo muck, aloha from hell, cramp stomp, eyeball in my martini, queen of pain

london after midnight (real dramatic, glam, pretty sexual): inamourada, sacrifice, your best nightmare, i'm no angel

specimen (glam rock, 'death bowie'): lovers, hex, kiss kiss bang bang, beauty of poisin, syria

joy division (warm, gloomy, soft rock): love will tear us apart, disorder, shadowplay, digital

Personally, if I absolutely had to pick a favorite music artist, I would pick The Mechanisms! Queer sci-fi story album retellings of popular mythology and fairy tales! However I also really like The Crane Wives and Epic the Musical (by Jorge Rivera-Herrans)
