“ Fuck all the way off.”

“ Well done, this is, in fact, not engulfing my faculties with ennui. I find myself above the tidal line of tedium for once.

* Racks pistol *

Now, put me back please, there’s a good chap. I was in the middle of some…negotiations. “

Anarcho-syndicalism patch on my wrist brace. Black and red flag split diagonally with red upper left half and black lower right half. !NO PASARÁN! is spelled out in white letters on the black half.

Final (hopefully) patch and my absolute favourite.

Good to see the old ways kept up. In keeping with that sentiment may I offer the traditional greeting from the flight deck?

“ Welcome aboard! Can I get two waters and a trash bag please?”

There are several customary replies you can choose from. Surprisingly few without “Fuck off” though.

Moi (In the ONLY sportsball-wear I will suffer on my flesh. Maybe a Munster scarf occasionally) in my Celtic jersey and wrist brace sat on an oddly coloured bench in yet another hotel bar.

For the day that’s in it.

It is the ONLY sportsball -wear I will suffer to touch my skin.

An oddly shaped morale patch. Diamond (white body, gold border) on the bottom with a little blue outline square with a nose on silhouette of a V-22 Osprey. The words Welcome to fabulous Mountain Empire Airport, Virginia fill the diamond. ‘Welcome’ is across the top of the diamond with each word in its own bubble. Based in the famous Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas , Nevada sign.

Yet another morale patch from the creative genius manager at KMKJ.

Hals- und beinbruch!

Yeah, but she’s our bitch. Ya know?

Mistress Gravity did just that. With tarmac.

Sprained it getting off the plane. Gravity just gently reminding me of my place in the pecking order.

That Coastie pilot should be claiming the USCG’s first air to air kill since…ever?

I wonder if they’ll paint a tiny Poison Gnoem on the plane?

Black wrist brace with an ridiculous amount of velcro. I had have added a USCSS Nostromo path to liven it up. Patch is arch shaped. Blue, red and yellow rings leading in to a black banner arch that reads USCSS Nostromo and a registry number. Inner graphic is a blue planet and a gold ringed planet under a black and white ‘sky’ with a gold star.

Today’s patch.

My bat flapping is a bit wonky but I’m still as bitey as ever. May be a tad less gentle when the fangs go in.

* Puts fag out and squints at phone*

Oh ya. That’s all yours. Cheers.

* Pats pockets for the lighter*

110%.
I spend a lot of time introducing people like that to the concept of “No.”

My own specific brand of “No” mind. Scathing, blistering contempt heaped upon the entirety novel concept (for them) that they’re complete wastes of carbon and should recycle themselves in the core of the nearest star.

Be grand, like. Better before I’m married.

I’m going to swap some different patches in.

Enjoy being a Shieldhandmaiden, I guess. Maybe they can let you keep your blankie. Would it help if we let some botox roll around in it for a while?

Shieldhandmaiden.

Photo of Nazi Noem with a counter run down to zero behind her and a red diagonal lone slashing across the photo indicating her termination.

Time’s up, you vile, rancid pile of sentient offal. I hope I’ll live to see you shuffle off when the big buzzer goes off for you.

Is there anything to be said for sewing Trump, Putin and Netanyahu together á la The Human Centipede?

Plenty of other cunts in the world could be stitched in there as well.

We can save humanity and the planet with an (eventual) Ouroboros of about 1,000 of these fuckbakes stapled to each other.

No worries. I have a *hape* of different designs of his. He’s quite inventive and some are actually quite lovely. Just not a fan of the bullshit American jingoist propaganda bleeding into everything here.

Photo is of my sprained right wrist encased in black brace. There is a lot of velcro on the brace and the airport manager at MKJ thought it would be great craic to attach a doormat looking ‘morale patch’ to me. The patch reads Mountain Empire Airport (KMKJ) Established 1958 . Elev. 2258. There is a helicopter and a tilt rotor ‘aircraft’ on the patch also.

I have done myself a mischief .

Ba’athouse Party was right there!

I asked myself that very question about 36884995 times during that flight

Did it read it to you in an accent that’s half Blindboy and half Pam from Trueblood?

Copy that.

Is anyone seeing the alt-text I submitted with this video?
