Horror

 

I'm sorry you're scared about all this success.  Pray and put your fear in Allah, you'll be fine and have a great time.  I don't really feel much of anything myself, it's all the same old same old to me.  I'm grateful to Allah, of course.  Ya Allah, please grant me lots of money to spend on things I want and a new car.

Las Vegas!

I want lamb chops

 

Rio!

The next Michael Jackson

 

Barbin Ili is famous for being that dancing robot doll from China.  I think she's better off doing dance moves like this video.  Too bad she doesn't sing.

Live at the not the Met Gala!

Gotta get over that hump

 

Meat buns

 

Those meat buns in the video look pretty good.  I got tired of taquitos.  I got tired of taquitos unraveling, rather.  So I switched to meat buns.  Check it out, I made mini meat buns!  I think buns work better without any salt or spices.  Here the filling is beef, onions and garlic.

Church gig.

Papa cat loves pasta

 

I'm sorry for what happened to you at the airport.  Please try to be patient with the crowd, without becoming a doormat.

The locals here really really want spaghetti, but they don't seem to understand it.  They think it's like cooking fried noodles, but it isn't.  I believe that they can't grasp the concept of "al dente".  Pasta is supposed to be served "al dente", but to the locals it's like "nasi mentah" (not fully cooked rice) and it messes with their emotions.  Well, it isn't rice.  It's pasta.  To work it with Italian style sauces, you must eat pasta "al dente".

Gwen doesn't look too happy because she thinks she failed 80s night.  I don't think she failed, it's that Mary outshined her.  All Mary needed to look 80s was a fanny pack.

Party for the old folks!  80s style!

The gangsters

 

When you choose your new leader Honey, please make sure it's not more of the same.  The real problem is that the Jewish mob has infiltrated the US government.  Trump could have been a good president, but he just didn't have the balls let alone the integrity to confront the Jewish mob.  So when someone new takes over, they're going to have the same problem and their families will be in danger.  That's because they're dealing with gangsters, and that's all the Jewish mob will ever be.  A bunch of fucking gangsters.

Budapest!

Hypnotic music

 

Gypsy!

But why and why not

 

I don't want this.  I prefer simplicity, especially live.  But some people might like it.

This kind of reminds me of the old Kramer Ripley stereo guitar, which had pan pots for each string.  Now that, I could use.

"I might have been next door."

The Met Gala

 

I suppose I should talk about the Met Gala.  I need something to post about anyway, YouTube is becoming uninteresting.  Have you seen the pimple popping videos lately?  They're all the same videos over and over, pretty much.

I remember telling you about the Met Gala when I first found you.  I thought you would be interested.  Now I know you prefer to dress like... yourself.  I'm more or less a slob myself.  I blame it on not having money.  But even if I did have money, dressing up glamorously is a lot of labor.  And I already have too much stuff to do, including dressing up Mary and Gwen.

Anyway, the Met Gala 2026 is on at 6 am tomorrow morning for me.  That's when I get to sleep, right after the dawn prayer after being on the computer all night!  Plus tomorrow morning, I have to go out shopping for groceries.  Sorry Anna, I can't make it to your gig.

Jolly old England

 

Mary has a huge following in the UK, Grace.  With both the locals and the migrants.  So your crowd is most likely going to be a mix of both, be ready for that.

And beware of pickpockets.

Here's another snapshot from Mary's spy movie photo session.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

24.  Say, "Who gives you provision from the heavens and the earth?" Say, "Allah.  And verily we or you are rightly guided or in a plain error."

Sheba 34:24

Ranch dressing

 

It's not that people are bored with the Epstein files, it's because the scale is so enormous that they can't digest it.  They especially can't digest it in time to exert the most reasonable amount of justice, namely before the midterm elections.  Like Trump said, he is exonerated.  That's because he exonerated himself!  And the Democrats have their own people mixed up in it, so they're not going to bring it up voluntarily.  Many if not most people who would rather participate in the atrocities rather than seek justice for the victims.  Who doesn't want money and power?  And with the addition of male victims, it might expose that Trump is gay.

Thus this case is being slowed down on purpose.  For good reason too, because someone might make a movie using AI about the Epstein files, the more graphic the better.  The beauty is that you don't even need all the facts, just use your imagination and be lurid about it!  It would certainly go viral, so you don't need to be in America.  Someone could make A LOT OF MONEY in donations or whatever, especially if they get it released in time for the midterm elections, and before the corporations run with the story.  And we certainly wouldn't want that.

Here's another snapshot from Mary's spy movie photo session.

I want this

 

No, I don't want to crap my pants!  I want the miniature drum kit!

Food experiment

 

Aaaaargh I'm eating a lot of junk food!  That happens when I sit in front of the computer a lot.  I've got fish crackers and homemade beef jerky (it's made of cows not humans) swimming in thick spicy BBQ sauce.  Messy!

Happy Anniversary, Honey

 

I dressed these two so they would look out of place, but they actually fit right in.

Zero interest in being polished

 

Honey, we need to have a serious talk about punk rock.  I'm worried because punk rock is supposed to be untalented, while you are very talented.  I'm going to ask you 2 questions, then you can answer to yourself.

Question number one is: What, no Bottlerock this year?  Instead, I see your summer shows as being crappy.  Perhaps you did too many encores or perhaps the word got around about your new songs, and they are more interested in the classic rock stuff you used to do.  I do see a couple of Jazz fests.  Maybe they booked you because they're looking forward to hearing your new songs live.

Question number two is: why aren't you playing live shows for people your own age?  You said you wanted to make music for people your own age.  Sure those kids can be dangerous, but so can old men.  Don't count on your booking agent to get you punk shows.  The correct way to do punk shows is to organize it yourself!

I know you were taken by that show you did with the All-American Rejects.  I can see it in your posture.  You're not going to get that feeling by being in the Grace Bowers band.  You're going to have to join the All-American Rejects.  Then you will have no more control over your music.

I don't dislike punk rock, Honey.  There's a lot of punk rock in Shadowplay, but I don't really have any influences.  I guess my favorite punk rock song is "Rock the Casbah".  But I don't listen to punk rock religiously.  I already know how to generate anger and chaos musically.

I know you want to grow musically, but punk rock is not the genre for someone who does Chopin and Eugene's Trick Bag.  My shit ass advice about your musical direction is that you ride Mary's train, and when she's not singing you do the Grace Bowers show.  Which is classic rock, blues, funk and punk or whatever.

The clock is ticking

 

Well, it seems the Strait of Hormuz is open and the crisis has passed for now.  It doesn't feel like it, huh!  I read that the oil shock hasn't really happened yet.  Gas prices might go down eventually, but everything else would logically take this opportunity to stay up.  It is the way of life for capitalism.  Swallow it or get out of the country.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

68.  And if they argue with you say, "Allah Knows Best of what you do".

The Pilgrimage 22:68

Followers

 

Hi Grace!  How are you feeling, Honey?  Check out the video above, boss.  Major labels, huh!  My guess is that a million followers can fill up a 10,000 seat venue.  As for streams, most of the numbers are bots.

For those of you who are new Muslims in a place like America for example, it's best that you hide your religion for now until you get into a solid group.  Choose your group wisely because there are a lot of fake Muslims out there, especially among established societies.  Seek ordinary people who don't try to keep up appearances.  Those who do not show disdain to worship Allah.

Bombay is so clean!

Who's that girl?

 

Mary would have kept on singing.  She had to spend most of her career without an accompanist.

India!

Dance contest.  She can't dance!  They can't dance!

The assumption of survival

 

That is typical capitalist talk right there, to assume resources and gain are infinite when discussing a limited supply.  Why do you think they invade other countries?  Because there's nothing left at home!

I'll explain that for you ma'am!  It's more profitable to invest in the annexation of uranium in Iran than to spend on the well-being of Americans.

TV show!

The famous writer

 

What are you looking at?

Coachella

 

Didn't you play at Coachella once?  Those food prices, though.  It's like paying for Taco Bell...  

It's nice in Cape Cod.  Only one song!

Food

 

Don't forget that Trump not only fucked up the oil but also the fertilizer supply.  This means the food crisis is still on.  You have one year to prepare.  Please learn to cook, and stock up on food.  Please pray.

Of course, the only people who will pay attention are the people who already have the habit!  Anyway, basic dough is flour, yeast, water, salt and cooking oil.  And you mix it with your hands.

Sugar

 

I'm consuming more sugar nowadays.  Not a lot, I hope.  Let's count: I gave up coffee a while ago because it was expensive then at the start of the year I got a few extra bucks, so I tried out some coffee sticks.  I found a brand that totally hit the spot when I drink it at 9 pm, so I've been drinking that daily.  I usually drink iced tea no sugar, then I discovered during the fasting month that a couple brands of soda pop could add the right amount of sweetness to tea.  Just a little bit of pop at a time, no more than a couple of fingers.  I just finished a pack of imitation Oreos, that took me a couple of months.  Let's see, what else... I had a vanilla cone this evening.  The previous ice cream was 3 weeks ago.  And oh yeah, one mango a day.  I think that's it for now.  Do you think that's too much sugar?

Cats need other cats

 

That's a beautiful cat in the video above.  I can tell that it was loved, and human and cat had a close bond.  Cats need other cats, though.  Cats communicate silently as well as vocally, something few humans can achieve with their cats.  And cats love to squabble.  It's a hobby, even.  But there is always a reason.  Cats do not attack without reason.

My analysis of the situation above is that the human has diabetes, and the cat attacked the disease.

High fashion heavy metal!

How do you train for fear?

 

Are you scared?  I'm scared too.  I put my fear in Allah.  I'm not angry, though.  I should be.  I don't have money, and it's bloody hot.

Helmut has become terrified of his father.  His wound is healing, but he stays in hiding most of the time now.  He knows it's feeding time so he comes out, then he realizes he has to share the plate with his father and goes back into hiding.  And when his dad yowls it's like a lion's roar, and he scampers to under the counter.  How do I get him to not be scared?  Train him to confront his father?  Then they'll be fighting all the time!  Helmut is a beta male, that's his lot in life.  It's a no win situation for him, which makes it a no win situation for me.  I will just have to give him extra perks and privileges because he's a poor bullied boy.

Fretless

 

Fretless is so pretty!  Hey Grace, lately Twitch has been acting funny right at the 2 hour mark of Mary's set.  Don't hang up, OK!  I will reconnect right as they cut us off, now that I know they're doing it on purpose.

High fashion hippies!

Hot sauce

 

What are the US gas prices now?  If gas prices are still high, then that means the Strait of Hormuz is still closed and the US lost the war.  Didn't someone say the gas prices were going down?  That must have been fake news.  Get those gas prices down now, and keep them down!

In not fake news, Helmut got punched in the face by his father.  I didn't notice the wound until he stopped eating, then I saw it on the black patch of fur.  I drained and disinfected it- there was so much pus!  I had to put the Collar of Shame on him, but it won't fit his fat head.  He is feeling better now though, so alhamdulillah.  I suppose fathers in the USA are punching their fat boys for not joining the military service.  "Let the army pay for him!" says Dad.  At least he didn't dodge the draft 5 times.  Only a traitor would do that.  Well since the USA is winning, you don't need a draft.  Especially since you're sending ICE there first.

It's time for me to make more hot sauce.  This time I started from scratch, using the big mild peppers.  I boiled up to dried peppers then blended them, one batch plain and the other with garlic and starch.  My stomach seems to cope with these peppers, so I will be using them permanently from now.  They taste better than the pre-blended stuff I used to buy.  Oh God, I miss spicy food.  I guess I'm not young and reckless anymore.  I'm old and reckless.

The transexual's transexual

 

Perception

 

There is a certain uniform you must wear in order to be sexy and glamorous.  If you don't want to be perceived as sexy and glamorous then you won't be seen as sexy and glamorous.  I chose you because you are modest.

The White House is fake news, but actions speak louder than words.  That's how folks can tell what the truth is.  If the US were winning the war, then they wouldn't need more time and soldiers.  Iran knows how to fight, that's why the Jewish mob (even though they consider themselves the Master Race) blackmailed Trump into getting the US involved with the war.  The chance of survival would be better if your friends dodged the draft and ran away.  Submitting to the draft would be honorable if the Commander-in-Chief were an honorable man, but he is not an honorable man.

There's nothing more depressing than a transexual who doesn't pass

 

The trouble with men is that the ugly old man always wins.  There are a few beautiful old men, though.  I guess the same can be said for old women.

"They didn't give us spoons.  How are we supposed to eat this?"

How to spend money on food

 

I'm sorry your friends are in danger, but only the American people have the strength to protect them.  The Jewish mob must be neutralized.

When it comes to buying food, I go with my budget and my stomach.  Whatever makes my stomach happy that's within budget, and if my taste buds get excited then that's a bonus.  This week has been beans and tortillas.  I also have white rice with eggs, hot sauce and anchovies on the menu.  Also fried rice with chicken and broccoli.  Spaghetti is on the menu.  I think I one more serving of fries and meatballs.  Right now, I'm wrapping the meatballs with dough.  Just a wild hair up my ass, but it seems to work.  If I had money, there would be more lavish ingredients on the menu like steak, lamb, squid and lobster or jumbo shrimp.  And definitely sushi.  Also more time spent in the kitchen.  You're going to have to help me, Grace.  Peel the shrimp.   Cut the vegetables.  Do the dishes.

A small club somewhere in LA.

Mine!

 

I need to report that I haven't received any donations from the Muslim community here since I returned to Malaysia in 2008.  I know folks have tried many times, may Allah forgive and reward you.  But the money never reached me.

But can you groove?

 

I'm sure you are scared, Honey.  Be faithful and persistent, and pray.  Trump simply does not have the balls to stand up to the Jewish mob, but what leader does?  Especially when they're trying to make money.  Now the American people are forced to fight, but they do have a choice: the Jewish mob or Iran.

What Trump did was cut off oil and fertilizer to the US.  What happens next is the food crisis I told you about.  Please stock up on food and learn how to cook.  Don't abandon your home.  You should be OK on money when you stick to the stream inshaAllah, but everything will get expensive.  Try to share Mary with your community.

Fat

 

The girl cats preferred the bread over the beans.

Not these girls, though.  Or are they just being social?

Beans

 

I had a dream that I was cooking beans and when I woke up, I had a craving for beans.  So I bought half a kilo of red beans and slow-boiled them on and off for a day and a half, with some mild peppers and a beef bone.  When they were soft enough, I added onions, ground beef and salt.  No tomatoes, tomato paste or tomato sauce!  They came out excellent, but gassy.  Why must beans be so gassy?!!  I would have eaten the whole pot...

Toys

 

"Can I have my shoes back?"

I want a new car

 

Every time Trump fires someone, he's resetting a legal clock.  It's like buying a new car.

Sorry I don't talk much when I'm in a middle of a new album, Grace.  I don't hang out, I don't explore.  I focus on the music.  Eating, shitting and resting is all a hassle.  But when you gotta go, you gotta go.

I had to go pay my bills today.  I know I'm not supposed to be materialistic, but I don't want have to walk all the way downtown.  A car is useless in heaven.  If I get to heaven, I can just teleport to wherever it is I want to go!  Or not have to go anywhere at all!  Ya Allah, please give me a new car.  I don't want anything fancy, just a white Honda hatchback.
