From a 9th century Irish manuscript, the phrase ‘massive hangover’ (Latheirt) written in the ancient Irish text Ogham. The monk must have been having a very rough day…..

The exact translation is “ale killed us” which is somehow better

Contrary to the assumption both of its highbrow detractors and its self-conscious devotees, TV is not an expression 'of the people,' not 'vulgar' in any traditional sense, but an effective corporate instrument, whose sole purpose - as its executives will tell you - is to tell you to the advertisers; and it does so, in part, precisely through the very irony which some now celebrate as the proof of mass immunity. TV would 'liberate' us only from the notions that impede its own advance, and the advance of the market, which, while promising a world of pleasure, finally offers nothing but its own relentlessness.
Mark Crispin Miller, Boxed In, p. 24
Perhaps what we’re dealing with now isn’t actually capitalism any more—but something worse. Companies like Google are in the business of surplus information, not surplus labor power. The goal is to build and own an infrastructure that enforces an asymmetry of information, where for whatever information the user gets, much, much more is harvested. It no longer even matters whether this information is culled from work. It can also be extracted from everyday life. And lest one think Google is something of an outlier: take a look at the Fortune 500 companies and it turns out that most of them are now, in part or in whole, in the information business. Even the biggest of them, Walmart. Those big-box stores are just a physical manifestation of a financial and logistical data system. They are money and information congealed into a thing in the landscape. In that regard they are rather like art world works of art. The ruling class itself has changed form. That’s part of the reason the art world changed form. Art has a new kind of patron. One much less interested in the making of things than in the reaping of surplus from information. Its goal is the commodification of information flows. As such it undermines all of the old gift exchanges via which information used to flow, in the family, the community, via schooling, and so forth. What the capitalists did for the production of things, the new ruling class is doing for the production of information. I call them the vectoralist class. They rule through the ownership and control of the vectors of information, its stocks, its flows, its design.

"…'Aspects' was Benny Carter's only big-band recording as a playing leader." - AllMusic
"This was the first time that Mr. Carter had the occasion to select the top-rated Hollywood studio jazz musicians who did not have to travel with him simply because this band was chiefly arranged in Hollywood, CA for only the purposes of recording music."

I just wanted to add this quote from the peppermint patty peanuts wiki page about Charles M. Schulz and his relationship with his gay cousin. The source here leads to a book that I did not read but the original source is Schulz's wife who confirmed this in an interview. If I can find the interview again I will link it here but uh. just in case someone tries to claim Schulz was a homophobe on this post again.
