The Farm
*** SPOILER ALERT ***
She: I have to pee.
He: I’ll stop here on this isolated gravel road to hell.
She: No, I’ll wait til we get to town.
He: Okay then.
She: Heads out behind the closed restaurant to pull trou and herninate beside a checkbook, a collapsed blue tarp, and an abandoned flip phone. Nothing to see here.
He: I NEED MEAT.
She: In that case, let us stop at this out of the way, isolated diner by the side of the gravel road to hell.
He: We need gas.
She: We just ate meat at that out of the way, isolated diner by the side of the gravel road to hell. You’ll probably have all the gas you need in another 20 minutes.
Strangely enough, the abattoir is open, and fresh meat is on the way!
They Shall Not Grow Old
Jesus Christ. The horror.
Original footage shot in the ’10s and adapted for the modern cinema. I’m not certain of the distribution, possibly in December. I watched it online. I can’t imagine the scope of the work involved to bring this to life. If you can tough it out to the 25-minute mark, you’ll be rewarded. Sort of.
For The Fallen – They Shall Grow Not Old – Robert Laurence Binyon (1869-1943), published in The Times newspaper on 21 September 1914.

It’s perky chicks and roundhouse kicks galore when Fabian XIV (I surmise the other XIII names for Fabian were taken) admonishes his students:
You’re only to fight when there’s an elevated supernatural threat. -Fabian XXIVLAEIOU+Y
This thing was so bad that I immediately cancelled my internet subscription and moved.
Hack your cheap Brother printer to turn out the orange toner light
Brother is notorious for indicating a toner cartridge is empty when it still contains hundreds of pages. The orange toner light on my positively ancient HL-2140 came on and wouldn’t let me print anything. Being the cheapskate I am, I discovered this procedure to make it happen:
- Turn the Brother printer off.
- Open the front cover. This will reveal the cheapass white spring-loaded ON button that was formerly beneath the blue power-on indicator until you opened the front cover.
- Press and hold ON and turn the power on. Do not release the ON button. Remember, what I’m calling ON is the cheapass white spring-loaded ON button you’ll see when the front cover is opened.
- When all 3 lights light up, take your damned finger off the ON button.
- Press the ON button twice (You will see the Ready light blink every time you press the ON button).
- All the lights will light up.
- With all of the lights on, press and release the ON button 5 times (You will see the Ready light blink every time you press the ON button).
- The Error light will start blinking, perfectly normal.
- Close the front cover and wait. The printer will cycle through and make the sound it makes when you initially turn it on. After that sound stops, your blue Ready light will be on and solid.
- You are ready to print.
Don’t forget, what I’m calling the ON button is the plastic switch inside the front cover, which was once under the blue power-on button when the cover was closed and powered on.
Not relevant, but I also taped over the two clear plastic windows on either side of the cartridge (TN-330/TN360) for my Model HL-2140 printer.
