Melissa, the giant #jade tiger of Felineius IV, didn't understand the fuss. Some came to pet her, some to fight her, some thought she was lucky--or would grant virility.
She just really, really wanted a nap.
A proper cat nap, if you will.

Thank you!

Some say your solo album 'Everything and the Kitchen Sink' was a rip-off of Einstürzende Neubauten. How do you respond?
Skiff Tugboat: Well, I was going for pure percussive experimentation. And the kitchen #sink? Fucking rocked. You try and record porcelain in a 5/4 beat!

Pan-galatic punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists acquire a new #experimental time machine.
Peach: So, we only get two trips. Who do we kill?
K2: Hitler?
Peach: Obviously. Who else?
PCP: Stalin?
K2: The Orange Goblin's mother?
PCP: The inventor of Auto-tune!
Peach: Ooh...

Kurt Kerf2: Haven't we already done this? Bird puns?
Punk Rock Kilgore Trout: SHUT YER PIEHOLE, OR WILL STRIKE YOU DOWN #BLIND!
K2, mutters.
PRKT: WHAT'S THAT?
K2: Nothing lord master and creator, sir!
*quietly mutters: Pretty sure we've done this before, too... with the threats and all...

#vss365

Seymour sat quietly in his #blind on Aves II, waiting.
Waiting for the planet's most dangerous wading bird, a downright foul creature.
Was this to be his first or last snipe hunt?

#vss365

Did pan-galatic peace punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists also rob the planetary #bank of Iranalot?
Peach: That wasn't us! But, basically, if we can take the money from any corrupt government and give it to the poor? Well...

#vss365

Recently your band has been accused of robbing the #banks of various planets. Is this true?
Peach: Well, don't you think that the multi-trillion dollar war machine of Amerikkka, Rushya, etc., should give some money to the poor?
Are you going to stop?
Peach, winks: I wouldn't bank on it!

#vss365

Thank you!!!

On a remote planet, as the #ink dries:
#MAGA Moron: So, this'll get the Orange Goblin a third term?
Beezulbuddy, smirks: You betcha!
MM: Wait? In Amerikkka?
Beez: Yes?
MM: Huh?
Beez, with a toothy grin: We have a special ring in hell for Amerikkkants... he can 'serve' there.

#vss365

On the remote planet of Amerikkka, a few years ago:
Beezulbuddy: Sign here, and I'll get you re-elected.
The Orange Goblin: In #ink??
Beezulbuddy: Blood.
Orange Goblin, shudders: Does it have to be mine?
Beezulbuddy: No.
Orange Goblin, shouts: Errrikkk!!!!

#vss365

As the #ink dries:
The Orange Goblin: Infamy!
Beezulbuddy: Oh, yes!
Orange Goblin: So the people of Amerikkka will remember me forever?
Beez, coughs: As a warmonger, a pedo--and especially the funeral. So much spit... just so much!
Orange Goblin: What?
Beez, smiles: Enough to drown kitten!

Over supposed 'indecency' charges, pan-galatic punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists narrowly avoid the long #arm of the law on Phlav IX. Which is tough, as those fuckers are 17 feet tall. And their wingspan...
Peach, with a wink: Worth it, though--the Phlavian fans are a lusty bunch.

#vss365

Part of a planned interplanetary tour, prolific punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists found pleasure on Phlav IX, in the seven-legged race, in their multiple sex organs & orifices. Soon stuck with dozens of suits, they fled. Alimony cost an #arm & several legs.

#vss365

*twitter oldie

On the planet of Phlav IX, they had abandoned the #arms race eons ago. The ensuing legs race brought about a great and lasting peace. Which made sense as the Phlavians were a seven-legged species, four of which also served as sexual appendages.

#vss365

*A twitter oldie, from the earlydays...

On the remote planet of Euchre IV, the great King of Hearts was beset by a dilemma: the Royal Knave of Spades had trumped his decision to give his second ace control of the Diamond Uprising. Assorted affiliated clubs were useless.
The game was afoot, and also out of #hand.

#vss365

On the desert planet of Hoagie, the reigning Earl of #Sandwitches was beleaguered by a rogue coven who were determined to overthrow his excellency. They claimed that he wasn't really their bread and butter and, simply, couldn't cut the mustard.
It was a quite a pickle.

#vss365

Thank you! And thanks for the repost.

Peach Schnapps, clacks away at the keyboard: So I've programmed the ship's course. We just have to shoot the #ring gate and we'll be on our way to the #next system.
Skiff Tugboat, brandishes shotgun: Aye, captain!
Peach, slaps forehead: Oh, for the love of Jebus. Ship of fools...

Josh: Did you... did you... Just stab me??
Jodi: Yup.

#vss365

Peach Schnapps, spits out drink: What the... what the hell's this horror??
Kurt Kerf2: It's a #Sprite!
Peach, furious: Why???
K2: Well, you've already had six pan-galatic gargle gassers!
Peach: I think you mean pan-galatic gargle blasters...
K2: Shhh! Do you want to get sued??

#vss365

Scientist: So, see here? The sun actually #revolves around your planet, not the Orange Goblin.
MAGA Amerikkkant, brow furrowed: Um, no. That ain't right.
Scientist: Yes! Yes, it is. It's an #open and shut case. Empirically proven.
MAGA: Uh, no. Can't be.
Scientist sighs.

Many were #fascinated by the recent supernova. Not Seymour.

Seymour: Meh. You've seen one supernova, you've seen em all. However I will add that, while watching the broadcast, I thought it was a nice touch when Glagg shouted 'Cowabunga!' just before her planet exploded.

#vss365

Pan-galatic peace punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists, reading: tempest, sample sentence: The sudden summertime #tempest drove us off the golf course and into the clubhouse.

Oh, good. Fuck golf. And the rich folks who play it and all the water wasted and pesticides used.

#vss365

Pan-galatic punks Peach Schnapps & the Poltergeists, en route to their next gig:
Peach: We haven't been told where to land on Hinderus X. Why are there six platforms with no designations or numbers? It #frustrates me.
Ship computer: I think you mean baffles.
Peach: I hate AI.

#vss365

Welcome back to the Annual Pan-galatic Punk Picnic everyone! Today the delegation from Cannibalus VI returns, Bob!
Ko'l, I really don't think that we should #endorse these guys anymore!
Why not, Bob? Today, they've prepared head cheese! Made with real--
I don't want to know!
--cheese!
Oh!
