  1. Evil Genius Chronicles Podcast for September 4, 2026 - I Use the Gender Neutral "Dude"Download audio

    On this show, I play a song from Burden's Landing; my kid got us a table at the restaurant and it almost made me cry; the notion of "imposer syndrome" made me laugh; working on the Vito X Dino podcast led me to Devil in Detail, a Grendel comic re-read podcast; I volunteered to be a coordinator for the FediZineFest with very little forethought; those early Comico comics were some slapdash affairs; the very worst comic book you've ever read was actually printed and distributed; making a terrible thing is still making a thing which is hard work; if you don't sing you don't get to criticize anyone's karaoke performance; Jack Kirby was a great artist and an imaginative thinker but never had the courage to back himself; I am thinking to myself about the viability of going into business fulfilling crowdfunding campaigns; I have been thinking about the successes and failures of our CREATE South conference; a bickering old couple really bummed out what was already a bad takeout experience.

  6. And that's how you come up with the #AntiLife equation (old comic book reference).

    Creating ‘Mirror Life’ Could Be Disastrous, Scientists Warn

    Breakthroughs in synthetic biology could create mirror versions of natural molecules, with devastating consequences for life on Earth

    By Simon Makin
    December 14, 2024

    "A category of synthetic organisms dubbed “mirror life,” whose component molecules are mirror images of their natural counterpart, could pose unprecedented risks to human life and ecosystems, according to a perspective article by leading experts, including Nobel Prize winners. The article, published in Science on December 12, is accompanied by a lengthy report detailing their concerns.

    [...]

    "In 2010 researchers at the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) in California installed synthetic DNA into a cell to create the first cell with a fully synthetic genome."

  10. Hi!
    Perhaps a Re-#Introduction is in order since there's so many more people in this space to share stories and insights with.

    I'm an #Alchemist. I manipulate symbols and materials to effect #transformations and thus transform myself.
    My practice was revealed to me in a series of trances by an ancient #goddess who has many historical forms. Some of these are the #Kemetic goddesses known as the Eyes of Ra. She recently revealed to me that she would like me to refer to her as #Hathor. I'm not second guessing that advice.

    I'm a cis het old guy (58) happy married for 25 years. I adore women. Mostly from afar.

    Race- white, blue eyed ethnic jew.

    My technique is centered on an apparatus I built based on a design the goddess revealed. I later connected the components and operation symbolically to equipment and processes described in classic #Alchemy sources.
    I'm a non-traditional Alchemist. I don't use a forge or do metallurgy. My device is electrical and uses a type of #crystal to focus energy. It can roughly be described as a type of lamp. The picture shows the output of my process. It's called a #Violograph.

    It is commonly asserted, and I agree, that the coveted philosopher's stone refers to the practitioners themselves. As the goal of the process it is in reality the transformed person.
    This is done by separating the spirit and soul from the #body, changing them and then re-uniting them in the body again. Carl #Jung has some interesting ideas on this.

    Politically- #anarchosyndicalist and card carrying #Wobbly. I’ve been working at the same factory for 28 years.

    Other areas of interest besides the #occult are listed below.

    Music-
    I write songs, play electric #bass and #ukulele. Not famous at all.
    A few faves-
    #Motorhead
    #HankWilliams
    #CarolinaChocolateDrops
    #Budgie
    #JudasPriest
    #JohnnyWinter
    #BuddyGuy
    #HotTuna
    #WilliamElliotWhitmore
    #JackBruce

    Art-
    #GustavKlimt
    #JackKirby
    #FrankFrazetta
    #ErnstFuchs
    #GilbertShelton
     
    Philosophy:
    #Plotinus
    #HerbertSpencer (I know- cringe)
    #MaxStirner
    #Hegel
    #Heraclitus
    #Iamblichus
     
    Food: #glutenfree, I'll take what I can get. Non-celiac.

    Drink- #pinotgrigio wine spritzers mostly.
    A pinch of #weed goes a looooonnnng way. After 45 years of smoking I'm a total lightweight now that it's legal here. That's #Chicago (officially a suburb 10 miles outside city limits), btw.

    Everyone I’ve met here is awesome!
    Peace and Solidarity!
