The Book of the SubGenius back in stock

Despite efforts by The Conspiracy of All Dumbasses to keep our books from us, Bulldada Time Control Laboratories has procured a black market shipment of CHERRY copies of The Book of the SubGenius, Seventeenth Printing. Copies go fast. The Third Testament, Revelation X, is out of print, and copies are going for $25 to $30 if you can find them at all. Those cool Skull"Bob" shirts we were selling last week? GONE FOREVER. This could happen to The Book of the SubGenius at any second, so... well, you know what to do. Start saving up those bottlecaps.

Detroit Devival photos uplifted

The Detroit Devival of 2005 was a fountain of Slack for me personally and a fountain of money for the Church and Dobbs. In some ways it was more like a sprung fire hydrant of Slack. I haven't dealt with the video yet (nor most of my email) but I did cull down, crop and crib the photos that Princess Wei took. Those and several great ones by Rev. Joy D'Veeve are now on SubSITE and alt.binaries.slack. PRABOB, and PRAISE THE AMINO ACIDS, who were really the instigators of this DIVINE MESS!

SUBGENIUS MEETUP – FILTHY ANIMATION – SUBVIDEO on NEW GROUP - New Alt.Slack Archive

YETINSYNY LOCATER/ GOOD SEX FOR MUTANTS DATING SERVICE reborn!

This service shows great potential for helping SubGeniuses locate each other. I have no doubt that it will lead to many sexings, friendships, and bitter fights!

subgenius.meetup.com


Pope David Lee Black says of it: “I have discovered at least 10 UNKNOWN Euro-SubGenii in 1 day through this site. I implore you to go to this site, join the London clench I created, one of the other EuroSubG clenchs, OR CREATE YOUR OWN for you respective country or town.” Also good for kook-hunting, pagan-peeking, Discordian discovering.

NEW NEWSGROUP UP AND RUNNING SUBMOVIES 24-7
Last night my Usenet newsgroup service, Giganews.com, started offering our new movies and audio group, ALT.BINARIES.MULTIMEDIA.SLACK. I actually jumped around and sang weird chants, alarming Princess Wei, I was so happy. PRAISE MODEMAC, who got the ball rolling. It’s already on EasyNews, Supernews (I think) and Verizon. You may have to pester your service to start offering it. They won’t add it automatically. Anyway, I posted the following in SVCD-ready MPEG2: The SubGenius Commercial, The X-Day Commercial, Bolex Bros.’ Day of the SubGenius, Codini’s Intermission and Adventures in Teen Life, Onan’s Confession, and the intense documentary by the late Danish SubGenius, Sverre Kristensen, Something New to Die For. These are kick-ass quality copies, almost as good as the ones on our DVDs.

GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE:
http://thorrific.com/christianpiratepussies.htm

Well, a hell of a ShorDurPerSav, anyway. I looked at this, turned to Wei and said, "I want to MARRY THEM." My friend Rev. Jim Blanchard turned me on to this.

Done by OKIES! More "Doktor" than Doktors 4 "Bob"! BEYOND fucked up.

“Christian Pirate Pussies.” They're pirates, but they're Christians, and they are vaginas. Vaginas with arms and legs, except for the captain, who has a peg-leg, and the vagina in the crow's nest, which has tits. The Southpark guys will be cutting off THEIR OWN FINGERS in jealousy! After viewing this movie, check out
http://thorrific.com/dubyabinzilla.html

Even YOUR lower jaw will hit the floor. This is the most stark take on 9-11 I've seen since "I LIKE TO WATCH." Every other animator is a WEENIE compared to this person or persons!

Then hit their main page, http://thorrific.com/ and go to the graphics section. Click on "HUMMERS ARE BAD ASS." These people are REAL. THIS IS *REAL* ART. On the same page, look at "BEEF BEEF BEEF." It will FUCK YOU UP GOOD.

The PHOTO GALLERY is likewise full of marvels. This guy (?) has a fine eye for po’buckerdom. Wei and I spent an hour at least going through this stuff. Great for family togetherness. Gather the kids around and enjoy quality family viewing time.


And the BEST NEWS OF THE DAY: yet another Conspiracy False “Bob” gets karmic payback. Don't fuck wit de "BOB".

MANY NEW SUBGENIUS BLOGS, DOWNLOAD OPTIONS, CHAT, WIKIs!

Do you want to post art, brags, rants to your fellow SubGenii, but are unwilling or unable to weather the rigors of alt.slack and alt.binaries.slack on Usenet?

BUT, already burned through all of the SubGenius Yahoo and MSN Groups?* (see below for list)

Here’s something NEW to die for:

http://slackoff.blogspot.com/

"SubGenius Reverend" is the name of this all-purpose SubBlog, begun by nu-monet but open to contributors of text, graphics, and sounds.

Anyone can leave comments appended to subjects, but to be able to start new subjects, you must be a “Blogger” member – to sign up, email your preferred username, password and email addy to: nu_monet@yahoo.com
***************************************

Here’s something more organized – in fact, potentially INSANELY organized.

Announcing The High Weirdness Project, a SubGenius wikipedia:

http://www.modemac.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl

Including: The Bulldada News Blog:
http://www.modemac.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/Bulldada_Newsblog

And: SubGenius Badfilm Reviews Blog
http://www.modemac.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/SubGenius_Badfilms

Thanks to Modemac, you the visitor can add your own movie reviews. As he says, “You don't have to do an exhaustive essay on the symbolism of the underlying metaphor and the deeper meaning of why you enjoyed seeing Thora Birch show us her boobs in "American Beauty" (though it helps).”

For the past three years, Rev. Modemac has been involved with Wikipedia, contributing to that site's success. Lately, he has set up this working wiki at his own site, so as to allow for faster, easier edits... and to allow contributions from visitors.

It’s now open for mutants, SubGenii, Discordians, pagans, blasphemers, and other unmentionables far and wide to visit, read, and make their own contributions. For fellow mutants of the Church of the SubGenius, Modemac also offers you your own page on the Wiki, with links to your Web site or whatever sites you want to promote. Feel free to add your links to any parts of the page you find appropriate -- Other Mutants, Music, Books and Zines, Sex, or what have you.

Modemac says, “I founded the First Online Church of "Bob" as a way of opening people's eyes to the truth about the Conspiracy, so as to bring them Slack and achieve my own Slack in return. Here's hoping that the High Weirdness Project inspires you to make your own mark on the world.”

All of this is also accessed through Modemac’s sprawling, and now majorly updated, website:

First Online Church of "Bob"
http://www.modemac.com/

…probably the second most extensive SubGenius site in existence besides SubSITE… YET COVERING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF THE CHURCH! – such as the incredible stash of newspaper articles about the Church dating back to 1980:

Here’s the official Wikipedia SubGenius section:

Here’s a way to see and hear much of alt.binaries.slack without any special newsreader programs, just simply your web browser:

or http://tinyurl.com/6pe5j

******************

ALT. BINARIES.MULTIMEDIA.SLACK needs propagation!

Alt.binaries.slack has been, and remains, home to original SubGenius art and small video or MP3 audio clips. To post the many SubGenius videos, however, which are CDR-sized files, we have been using various existing newsgroups like alt.binaries.monter-movies and alt.binaries.movies.divx. WE NEEDED OUR OWN NEWSGROUP FOR THE POSTING OF DVD-SIZED MOVIES, whole Hours of Slack, etc.

IT IS CREATED, praise Modemac, and stuff has been posted to it, but that doesn’t mean that YOUR ISP CARRIES IT! In fact, mine doesn’t yet, and I don’t even use my local ISP for newsgroup access, but a specialty service called Giganews -- which carries pretty much EVERYTHING on ALL newsgroups.

But folks must let their newsgroup source KNOW that they want a particular new newsgroup, or it won’t get picked up. The more ISPs and newsgroup carriers like Newsguy that use it, the more thorough its coverage will be.

SO! Take a second for future Slack and email support@(your-isp.com) and ask them to carry the Usenet newsgroup, alt.binaries.multimedia.slack.

AND/OR, if you use Giganews, OR ARE MERELY THINKING OF USING IT SOMEDAY, go ahead and request it of them – they have a form for newsgroup requests and it’s real easy:

New ALTERNATIVE SubGenius IRC CHAT CHANNEL

For some time there’s been division in SubGenius chatland between the cantankerous, feisty contingent and the more laid back SubGenii. After too many drive-bys, the more laid back ones have created a new, bulletproof chat room. Point your IRC program at:

irc.taphouse.org
Once connected, join #subgenius
or you can use a browser to chat via
http://subgenius.com/subirc.html
– though to get the Java plug-in to work, you must TRUST IN “BOB”!

The old feisty, heavily booby-trapped chat room is still #subgenius on any fefnet branch – vendetta.fef.net, for example.

DAY OF THE SUBGENIUS by The Bolex Brothers
ADVENTURES IN TEEN LIFE by Champion Jack Codini

All of the above were uploaded last week as MPEG1 on alt.binaries.vcd, and as DivX avi on alt.binaries.movies.divx

The abovementioned movies will soon be on alt.binaries.svcd as very high-res MPEG2 files, and they’ll be on alt.binaries.multimedia.slack as soon as I get access to that myself.

The DivX avi and SVCD-style mpegs look damn near as good as the DVD versions of these… WHICH ARE OF COURSE AVAILABLE for $ (CHEAP) from
http://subgenius.com/scatalog/video.htm

Oh lordy, that reminds me, I have to go through and add PayPal buttons to the rest of the sacred and holy swaggarts and productry.

All I Wanted Was to Log Onto Nu-Monet's SubGenius Blog...

... but it forced me to start my own!

Well, it's a start, anyway.
