GLITTER WIZARD CONJURS A VIDEO/AWAKENS TUF E NUF

The blog has been hibernating for the past month or so. I'm sure the one person who reads the blog has noticed. I don't know who you are but you've probably been sitting on the homepage, manically refreshing, waiting for new content, hoping and praying like you're sitting at your Grandma's hospital bed waiting for her to wake up. Well Grandma's eye just twitched because TUF fav Glitter Wizard just put out a video!



So hey there one blog reader, after you're done watching that video 5 times and checking their upcoming tour dates (write those dates down you pothead) you can download the both epic and stoney TUF E NUF mixtape frontman Wendy Stonehendge summoned from a distant realm right here!

DAYWALKER SIGHTING #2

Daywalker Sightings is an older TUF E NUF blog series that actually really only has one entry. There is a really good reason for that, it's incredibly dangerous to photograph vampires. They don't like it. I think something about the way the iPhone camera works it's like a reverse mirror or some shit and can capture them to digital picture. I'm not a scientist so I shouldn't really speculate any further. Alls I know is that they still walk among us and you don't have to go to some homoerotic nightclub called "Death Guild" to see one. This particular toothy menace was riding the metro right next to me.



Too fearful for my own life I could only snap a quick picture off of his hand. Every nail sharpened like a razor. His gothy, mysteriously zipper-laden, oversized black pants held up by a demon belt.

If you find yourself in the precarious position of being in the presence of such a villain, take a picture and send it over to tufenufusa@gmail.com. I will be sure to post it and keep compiling a visual record that surely the survivors of the vampire holocaust will read in the future as they try to learn of a civilization long lost to the armies of the night.

SOLAR HITS


San Fransisco's own Glitter Wizard (fronted by the 100% TUF Wendy Stonehenge) invites you to let the sun and a magnifying glass be your lighter on their new epic record Solar Hits. Let their heavy doom-laden sound fill your lungs until you cough up blood and don't miss a chance to see them live. One of the best shows in the Bay Area (and beyond)!

100% TUF - STUBBY



While training for combat on the fields of Yale University in 1917, Private J. Robert Conroy found a brindle puppy with a short tail. He named him "Stubby", and soon the dog became the mascot of the 102nd Infantry, 26th Yankee Division. He learned the bugle calls, the drills, and even a modified dog salute as he put his right paw on his right eyebrow when a salute was executed by his fellow soldiers. Stubby had a positive effect on morale, and was allowed to remain in the camp, even though animals were forbidden. When the division shipped out for France aboard the SS Minnesota, Private Conroy smuggled Stubby aboard. Discovered by the CO, Stubby was allowed to remain after giving him a salute. When the Yankee Division headed for the front lines in France, Stubby was given special orders allowing him to accompany the Division to the front lines as their official mascot. The 102nd Infantry reached the front lines on the 5 February 1918. Stubby soon became accustomed to the loud rifles and heavy artillery fire. His first battle injury occurred from gas exposure; he was taken to a nearby field hospital and nursed back to health. The injury left him sensitive to the tiniest trace of gas. When the Division was attacked in an early morning gas launch, most of the troops were asleep. Stubby recognized the gas and ran through the trench barking and biting at the soldiers, rousing them to sound the gas alarm, saving many from injury. Stubby also had a talent for locating wounded men between the trenches of the opposing armies; he would listen for the sound of English and then go to the location, barking until paramedics arrived or leading the lost soldiers back to the safety of the trenches. He even caught a German soldier mapping out the layout of the Allied trenches. The soldier called to Stubby, but he put his ears back and began to bark. As the German ran, Stubby bit him on the legs, causing the soldier to trip and fall. He continued to attack the man until the United States soldiers arrived. For capturing an enemy spy, Stubby was put in for a promotion to the rank of Sergeant by the commander of the 102nd Infantry. He became the first dog to be given rank in the United States Armed Forces. Later, Stubby was injured during a grenade attack, receiving a large amount of shrapnel in his chest and leg. He was rushed to a field hospital and later transferred to a Red Cross Recovery Hospital for additional surgery. When Stubby became well enough to move around at the hospital, he visited wounded soldiers, boosting their morale. By the end of the war, Stubby had served in 17 battles. He led the American troops in a pass and review parade and later visited with President Woodrow Wilson. He visited the White House twice and met Presidents Harding and Coolidge. Stubby was awarded many medals for his heroism, including a medal from the Humane Society which was presented by General John Pershing, the Commanding General of the United States Armies. He was awarded a membership in the American Legion and the Y.M.C.A. When his master, J. Robert Conroy, began studying law at Georgetown University, Stubby became the mascot of the Georgetown Hoyas. He died in 1926.

NOTORIOUS Z.I.G.

No one speaks more to arbitrary injustices and the perils of modern life more than Biggy. Whether it's selling crack cocaine on the mean NY streets as a teen, attending parties with the intention of finding a lady to give birth to his children, or merely just spending time with his pets and quandering the non sequiturs of life one thing is certain - you don't need pants.

So wear this shirt as it was intended to be worn, pants-less and proud.

TIME TO DIE

In the cold, indifferent eyes of the multiverse you are merely a passing moment clawing for meaning. A spider in a bathtub. Control is an illusion created by your frightened mind. Death rolls the dice alone and no matter how many times he does the number remains the same. Now, you could let this soul-crushing existential notion put a noose around your neck OR you could just suck it up, buy this shirt, and wait it out like everyone else -



I chose the first option this morning but then had some coffee, felt much better, and put on my DIE shirt. Time to roll the rock up the hill again.
