You're too kind Rastus...

Thanks!

I think our attendance numbers indicate that most people like being sold and marketed online, along with being unfairly banned and censored. 

But I have always been a "Quality over Quantity" kind of guy... I think that attribute applies to the regulars of this forum as well.

One thing I have always said was that it's never the platform that makes for a great and interesting place to hang, it's the people!

Right you are, Rastus! We are on page two! Good call on the "scale" image because the "Rat Pack" are probably the hottest of all twelve (except for Melissa and #13) lol 

So without further delay, I introduce you to Eden Dranger

Eden is an LA writer of things you have probably seen, but you would never know. 

You can follow her on Twitter and Instagram using her name. Honestly, if you enjoy that whole Twitter "zinger" one line barbs kind of thing, Eden will not disappoint. 

For sure a strong female character, she celebrates her Jewish faith with flair and pride. She's also a Libra, which means she's got an "air" about her... Self admittedly, she's not one to settle... so that means that like many others in the Rat Pack, odds are she will be single forever. If only because nobody will live up to her Dad (rest his soul) who she adores and considers her hero. So yes, she has daddy issues... but all the really hot ones do in one way or another... a complete 180 from say, Desi, who considered her father her nemesis. 

Eden ended up blocking me on Instagram for sending her this tune as part of a three song "mix tape"

And while I feel bad that I may have hurt her feelings, I still follow her stories... and no, I won't pay the $5,000 broken heart fee. It was a popular song back in my mid 20's and I meant no offense!

Eden does have one thing the rest of the group doesn't... the entire backstory - blow by blow, of how I come to meet all these people. I got bored one night and decided I better tell at least one of them who the heck I was and how I came to know them... regardless if she wanted to know or not... even if she didn't read it, at least I now have a personal journal of it! LOL! All I can say is that sometimes the hardest person to get over is the one you never dated. I don't know if Eden wrote that, but it was spot on good advice after several weeks of one sided communication. 

She's also a rabbit lover... having a rabbit I can tell you, they can be rather stinky at times... I don't think they should be kept indoors but women feel differently... in other words, my woman has a rabbit stinking up my house and I swear to gawd, as cute as the little vermin is... he can make a room stink with a single piss! Think of how cats stink, it's like that but several times more potent! You can use the best kitty litter and it still stinks until the litter absorbs it. 

So there you have it, one of my most interesting and unique finds during my five year tenure at the liberal Twitter. Considering that Eden was phone banking for Gavin Newsome, and that she lives in LA, she's a self admitted Democrat supporter. 

Be sure to follow her if you're on Twitter or Instagram, because one day she could be famous! She might already be, who knows... What qualifies for "fame" now days is up for debate in this new digital age!

Moving right down the list we have one of the more interesting of the group, and thus far the only one who does NOT live in LA! 

Nope... our next one is a New Yorker! Guess you could say New Yawker if you wanna get the accent down...

By far the best looking of all twelve ladies, Gabrielle Williott is, and probably always will be, my most favorite of the Twitter gang!

Unlike ALL the other ladies from LA, Gabrielle is approachable and does not have a bazillion fake followers... it's almost like she weeds them out because being as attractive as she is, she would have many 10's of thousands more followers. She is not one to ignore people and will interact with just about anyone who interacts with her! I followed her for awhile and fucked it all up when I ripped on her friend "Brian"... In my defense, Brian was a very Magoo person but apparently Gabrielle is not into male toxic masculinity. She gave me the block but not without first giving me a thorough tongue lashing and making it very clear that I was not to rip on her friends... guy was a pussy... buy hey... best thing for me really, our relationship was going nowhere!

I am not sure exactly what Gabrielle does, although I think she might be an editor of sorts... not sure exactly what she edits but she seems to have connections in LA and is working in the media business in some capacity. For the longest time I thought she worked in a body shop because her avatar has the storefront of a collision shop that reads "Gabrielle's Collision Shop".

But that is just how corny she is, just a barrel of laughs! Sometimes she comes up with some shit so far out there you're left wondering, "is this chick crazy or is she just fucking with me" but that's all just part of her charm. She was my eyes and ears in NYC when the pandemic was in it's most locked down period... speaking of periods, she loves to talk about them... she's got a link in her profile to a website called fullyloadedtampon although I am not sure if it's her's or not... sort of like the body repair shop image... 

I'd love to say something bad about Gabrielle, but the truth is I'm 100% to blame for getting blocked... which is not to say that people don't have a right to block others, for any reason whatsoever, just that I deserved my block. What can I say,

She comes HIGHLY recommended if you are on Twitter or Instagram because she really has some funny posts! Not only that, she loves to dress up for the camera! So if you like that photo above you will like all of her others too! Check her out!

 

Saturday Night Fever going on in here, and it's Monday morning! 

Frank ain't bad, but I'm a bigger Bee Gee's fan... even got their greatest hits two CD set.

Seems like the Patreon site has been placed on the internet "Slow" connection since it like takes FOREVER to load a video on there...

Yes, I did re-joint Patreon but only because of Melissas IVF story... seems people like real life stuff about stabbing themselves in the stomach every day to get pregnant and shit...

I guess to be honest I'm just upset I can't watch my damn videos... I mean my YouTube and everything else works fine... but my damn Patreon is just like lagging worse than Faceboook!

What can I say... Stupid is, stupid does... I'm still reeling from this possible DESI revelation! 

These fook'n people... 

I mean, people make honest mistakes ALL THE TIME!

Trump thought the White House's top Russia expert was a secretary and called her 'darlin' during a meeting: book

https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-thought-white-houses-top-212728022.html

Such is the life of a celebrity... always someone swinging off your nuts!

I haven't had much time lately as with current work loads my driveway is starting to look more backed up than the port of Los Angeles... 

But I do keep close tabs on my A list and I suppose an update into the status of Desi is merited... It would appear I may have misinterpreted her Twitter handle and when I gave her the pussy grab it was more like this

I guess it's just how them baseball fans roll... Sorry about that Desi! LOL

As for the "Star" of this thread, Melissa, I have since come to understand she has been working real hard to get prego the past year, including IVF treatments that required at times SEVEN shots in the belly! I knew there was a reason my stomach was bothing me so much back then! They were sympathy pains! Feel bad about teasing her now, I was giving her the whole Miss Prissy treatment

Had absolutely no clue! Guess it doesn't matter much now though... she seems to have changed quite a bit... it's almost like she's been broken, domesticated even! Gone are the days of the classic Melissa... And she isn't acting! She recently underwent behavior engineering and she is now knitting! I swear I have seen this before somewhere!

 

That's pretty funny Rastus! LOL, almost as good as the Cheech and Chong bit! 

I never even knew that song existed before now. A couple of times I caught myself wondering, "did he just say what I think he said?", "He-did He-did!"

In other news, Quentin Tarantino is considering making Kill Bill Vol. 3...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-10112529/Quentin-Tarantino-hints-possible-Kill-Bill-Vol-3.html

Apparently Fiona Apple has some thoughts...

https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/fiona-apple-quit-cocaine-excruciating-162200422.html

And to think she always said "Nothing was going to change her world"

 

 

So it occured to me it's nearing Halloween, which is also the same time of year I checked out WebCrawlers some years ago because I was looking for something spooky...

Well I sure found it! LOL, but this year it is clowns...

I watched the video on Patreon and I was a little upset there was no mention of KOKO the clown, which reminds me a lot of Webcrawlers.

Just in case anyone was wondering what kind of films Rachel Fisher likes,

Confusedt...???

Does she like aeroplanes, or does she like showing-off her cock-pit ...???

I don't know Rastus... I don't think that's actually Rachel in the photo... let's take a closer look!

Here is the 777 aeroplane clearly being consumed by the cock-pit

 

And here is a confirmed photo of Rachels box

 

As an expert in these things, we can see that the 777 aeroplane clearly did not land in Rachel's box. That's a whole different hanger, all together!

That said, we can conclude that Rachel just loves disater films.

Happy Devils Night 2021!

And of course, the Web Crawlers has you if you've never experenced how much fun we used to have on Devils night here in Michigan! Got so bad they started calling it Angels night, which if you think about it could be the first time they tried using cancel culture on us to replace the real meaning of something with another in attempts to change behavior.

Insurance companies probably werent very happy with all the fire damage claims as they always have to go all out in Detroit by burning a building or house to the ground... in the burbs it was pumpkin smashing, toilet pappering peoples houses, egging, soaping, bags of burning dog shit on your porch, you name it... any kind of prank was on the table on Devils night.

Byyyyooooyyoooyoooyiiiing!

Uh ha...

 

 

Hmmm....

It seems to me that these girls are racist....

The male cat "Tom" is always allured to the female in heat, to do-the-deed...And it's the female cat who delivers the countless feral cats into our world via birth...

It seems that these girls are just "crying poor", & won't fund the costs of an operation to de-sex a female cat, who is arguably the more responsible being impregnated...

One starts to see that they've either cheaped-out, or just hate males, & take this vengeance out on tom-cats...

Watch yourself SELLC...

Been checking around to see what spells require the use of a cat testicle but so far all I can find is one that utilizes the testicle of a rooster... let's hope these girls don't ever find themselves on a farm! LOL

Ancient spells and charms for the hapless in love

Valentines Days is not all love hearts and roses for everyone. For the hapless in love, the day can be a yearly reminder of failed romances, unrequited love and the seemingly unending search for the illusive one.

Such problems of the heart span cultures and history. The inhabitants of the Graeco-Roman world suffered the same heartaches and the same emotional highs and lows as we do today. While we are left with apps to swipe on, a greater belief in magic in this period provided interesting opportunities to find love. 

Hope was placed on spells, mysterious words and magical objects to grant the gift of love on their users or to take it away from rivals.

Ticks and fish blood

The Greek Magical Papyri are a series of ancient spell books from Egypt from between the 2nd century BC and the 5th century AD. They are a sort of do-it-yourself guide to magical rituals that offers solutions to problems like finding a thief, keeping calm, curing fevers and demonic possession. Unsurprisingly, love charms feature prominently.

Depending on the lengths a hopeful lover was willing to go (and their level of lust/obsession/desperation) there was something for all levels of effort. Some spells are simple: To get a certain [her] at the baths: rub a tick from a dead dog on the loins.

Others require a bit more preparatory work. One advertised as the irresistible love spell of attraction asks the unlucky lover to use fish blood to write a spell invoking demons on the skin of an ass. They must then wrap it in vetch (a plant with pink flowers) and hide it in the mouth of a recently deceased dog.

Most spells required a special ingredient to be used in a specific way in combination with arcane words. These spells dont leave archaeological traces for us to find. One love spell asked the user to have an iron ring inscribed with Harpocrates (the Hellenistic god of silence) seated on a lotus in their hands while they shouted magical words at the moon from a rooftop. Several such gemstones matching this description have been found. 

Love potions themselves have a long history and are discussed in several ancient texts. A Demotic (written in ancient Egyptian) spell proposed the following method: 

Take the fragment of the tip of your fingernail and apple seed together with blood from your finger Pound the apple, add blood to it and put it in the cup of wine. Recite [the given spell] seven times over it and you should make the woman drink it at a special time.

This visceral recipe is a variant of a spell that also added semen, and the hair of a dead man to the mixture.

Rings, curses and more blood

A gold ring found in Corbridge, Northumberland, in 1935 is inscribed in Greek with OEMIOYITPON, The love charm of Polemius. Polemius was a man who either wore this ring to enhance his allure and sexual qualities or gave it to the object of his affections. If it was the latter, it may have been given conspicuously as a gift or hidden on or around them as a clandestine token. It is a uniquely personal object from the edge of the Roman Empire that speaks of the unfulfilled desires of a Greek-speaking man over 1,700 years ago.

Curses were used in the ancient world to condemn thieves, protect businesses, ruin rival chariot teams and to create better opportunities for lovers. Sometimes a desired partner was already in a relationship, and cursing their partner (to discredit, harm or kill them) offered a chance to change this. A lead curse tablet from Boetia, Greece, was written by someone jealously in love with a man called Kabeira and tries to damn his wife Zois:

I assign Zois the Eretrian, wife of Kabeira, to Earth and to Hermes her food, her drink, her sleep, her laughter, her intercourse, her playing of the kithara, and her entrance, her pleasure, her little buttocks, her thinking, her eyes 

Curses were personal, private contracts between a person and a deity. The leaden tablets were often folded over and sometimes pierced with a nail, which often went through the written name of the curses target. They were thrown into rivers, sacred springs, hidden in secret places and even dug into the graves of the recently dead. 

Magical and medicinal means were also suggested for resolving relatable problems in ancient relationships. Aelius Promotus, an Alexandrian physician, recommended that barley soaked in menstrual blood and wrapped in mule skin could be tied onto a woman as a contraceptive.

Opposingly, Marcellus of Bordeaux (4th-5th century AD) suggested that a waning sex drive could be cured by finding the right aphrodisiac. He suggested wearing the right testicle of a rooster in a pouch around the neck.

Roman magic may have been a cathartic experience for the heartbroken or an exhilarating one for the lovestruck. The idea that people will do whatever is within their power to find love belongs to a long and ever-evolving tradition. These spells, rituals, tokens and curses highlight the essential nature of love and heartbreak in the ancient world and implicitly connects our cultures across time.

I sure hope they don't run into any albino rabbits on their adventures! 

I have over 900 lady friends on Spacehey (in one month) and yet I still can't get over this nerd with only three friends?

 

 

 

I'm pathetic! Take me now oh long cruel winter of severe illness and death!

 

 

Crawling back to you

 

I spent last months Web Crawlers membership fee pre-ordering the new Beach House album.

Maybe I'll subscribe to Hollywood Crime Scene pod next time, just to put some extra stink on it! That is if the long cruel winter of severe illness and death doesn't get me first!

 

They're needling me Rastus! lol

They get on Twitter like a pack of wolfs and start making low-key references to set me off! And they do it all the time! That is why they got the name "wolf-pack"

When I broke away this most recent time they mellowed out, but then I seen that post from Melissa above and I just knew she was talking to me! I mean, I doubt there are any unvaccinated people in LA! 

And these girls are in the Entertainment business, for them no advertisement is bad advertisement! I think they started to feel cheated, that they gave me so much time and I stuffed their glorious thread away in the V8 Cafe...

I'm pretty sure they have plans to lure me to Los Angeles, but just to vaccinate and castrate me! Speaking of that, I have more details on this cat saga of theirs! Melissa put one down while we were on a break, and it wasn't a male.

Don't worry Rastus, you guys in the forum are my BEST friends on the internet! That's why I post this shit, because if I turn up missing you'll know where to start looking! lol
