War.. good god, y’all

March 1, 2026

What is it good for? Absolutely nothin’!

Eric Burden and WAR didn’t have a lot of big deal tracks. In fact, starting your pop success with a vocalist demanding separate name rights is enough to kill many music acts anytime, any reason.

With WAR, Erid Burden actually released three charted singles. And that was that. What is the highlight of his writing career, and certainly the band’s, the release of “Spill the Wine” told fans what kind of music they should focus on. Teenbopper-pop, had no taste for it, and it barely charted.

Complexity on a level of that song has never been pop friendly. So, to this day, we’re stuck with “War” and “Lowrider” for classic radio play. Great work.

Crypto’s Worst Enemy

January 21, 2026

There are a few things that need to be addressed.

Crypto needs mass adoption to keep going. There are WAY too many chains now, it’s really ridiculous. There’s zero justification for most of the Ethereum Layer 2 chains. Some have interesting features. Most haven’t had any development since they launched their EVM. Layer 2 chains need to offer something besides “faster and cheaper than Layer one!”

Two. And this is the big problem. I’m gonna address it briefly, then likely I’ll finish these errands ideas in a longer form and post it.

I’m talking about who irrational people get with crypto. If you sold before it peaked, it’s not the end of the world. Shut up and act like you’ve been here before. FOMO is the dumbest reason ever for people to pull a mass exodus. Then there’s the Trump problem. Declared winner, crypto goes apeshit for 9mo, until people realize that th ex asshole didn’t do anything for crypto. But you thought he was like Moses. Leading the rich into the super rich. The truth is the same as ever. He’s a senile old man that can’t understand crypto because he decided he’d learned everything he’d ever need to know at age 15.

At no point in history have the elderly been so shamelessly knocked around on a squash court. People spend all day calling them dumb, but when asked who’s a good leader, they pick the senile white guy. We’ve let those guys lead us in circles for centuries it time for any thing else!!!! Anything!!!

Get your head out of Trump’s ass and get someone who’s not on hospice care to do things that we actually need.
