The Pete and Karl Show (better known as T-PAKS) is an ongoing experiment in high-energy literature conducted by Karl Jones and [REDACTED].
History
Early theoretical models of T-PAKS emerged in the 2018-2019 era.
Rapid quantum-semiotic advances in 2020 lead to the discovery of the first T-PAKS Gnomon algorithm on the afternoon of Monday, 30 November 2020, during a conversation (voice only) between Karl Jones and [REDACTED].
Episodes
For convenience, episodes are arranged by funding potention in present-moment Euclidean space.
Patreon
Patreon subscribers pay small amounts monthly for recurring content
- Comic strip -
- Gnomon Chronicles - mix of history and crazy fiction
- On This Day in History - straight up true history, no crazy, but to be re-used in the Chronicles
- "Golden Illustrated History" - like "On This Day in History", but more story-telling style, like Golden Illustrated comics
Gnomon Chronicles to illustrate
Here are some of my favorite Chronicles which need iconic illustrations:
- Star Trek: Forbidden Episodes - logo; display text; scenes from episodes
- Cthulhu at the Movies - logo
- 1943 Eleanor Roosevelt dime - illustration, both sides
- Scrimshaw abuse - scene of degenerate scrimshander
- Bulky and Hoodwinkle - KKK parody in the style of Rocky and Bullwinkle - Bulky is a big thug, Hoodwinkle wears the white robe and hood
- Bless the Beasts and Wild Things - mashup "Where the Wild Things Are" and "Bless the Beasts and the Children"
- Search articles by category:
Stamp misprints are funny. Here are two. (Note: station wagons are also funny.)

SS Minnow (TV series) - "What appears to be a secret death camp on an uncharted Caribbean island run by Nazi officers during the Second World War in collusion with an unlicensed military industrial criminal transdimensional corporation based in the White House — is actually a highly realistic cover story for psycho-medical experiments of Lovecraftian dimensions involving the fictional yet illegal transdimensional drug Clandestiphrine." - need scenes, story ideas, spinoff shows, pseudo-merchandise
SS Minnow is a dramatic television program set on a purported "uncharted desert island" during the Second World War. The plot is loosely based on actual military-industrial-criminal efforts to develop the fictional yet illegal drug Clandestiphrine.

Cretaceous Office Supplies rated very highly on Twitter - people either love cute anthropomorphized animals, or they hate 'em, either way good material for us.
Cretaceous Office Supplies is an unlicensed transdimensional corporation which provides office supplies and associated support services to the Cretaceous period (the longest geological period of the entire Phanerozoic).
I have an obsession with fictional Dennis Hopper movies ...
Indiana Jones Versus the Oil Pirates of the Caribbean is an action-adventure film in the Indiana Jones franchise. Dennis Hopper plays a charismatic antihero who discovers the so-called "Peak Jones" effect, when the world has more Indiana Jones films that it can sustain.
Deacon Billy is a proposed film in which actor Dennis Hopper will play Deacon Billy, a Merchant Marine captain who trades his ship and crew for the last motorcycle on Earth.

CSI parodies. Lots of comedic gold here, people love those shows and the format is spoof-ready, just change the location or the crime or whatever grammatical part goes after the colon.
CSI: Reptile Gastrointestinal Unit - Pilot: "Bite the Hand That Feeds You" - When a Florida alligator bites the hand off a Mafia hitman with a different high-value fingerprint spliced onto each of his fingers, the RGU must slither into action.
CSI: Reptile Gastrointestinal Unit is a television crime drama show featuring a team of herpetological gastroenterologists who solve crimes related to reptile ingestion, digestion, and excretion.
#BabyYoda is big now. We should parodize the hell out of it. Play up Werner Herzog, he is a freaking Rock Star ... we need to meet him, get him into the Chronicles on a first-name basis.
The Mandalorian Dog is a 1929/2020 Franco-Spanish silent surrealist short scrylmn by Spanish director Luis Buñuel and celebrity polymath Werner Herzog. Show here: the infamous "Teasing Baby Yoda" scene.
