Dallas Clayton is pretty awesome. He is a writer, a doting father, and he drove me home one time when I had done too many mushrooms. Also, he writes like I would if I wasn’t so self-indulgent and prone to excess parentheticals (I can’t help it, I just like afterthoughts). Check out his writing at www.dallasclayton.com.

I’m no psychic but I’m guessing most of you would vote your pet goldfish into office if it meant replacing Mr. Bush. Yet you’re probably not registered to vote. We here at Cultist encourage you to do some research, figure out who turns you on (politically speaking) and get out there and vote. So if you can prove to us that you are registered (scan in a document, foward us your confirmation, whatever) we will send you a code to receive 10% off your orders for the month of February. Email us at contact@cultistshop.com.

Don’t just talk about it. Be about it.

Go slap Sam’s ass for me.
