The New Job in The New Place

I’ve told folks on my social media, but I realized I haven’t posted here for a bit. All of what follows is because of Tara. She’s been a rock for me when things were bad, and she stuck with me. And things kept getting better. She is very insistent that I understand my self-worth and […]

Addicted to Marvel (and other non-related topics)

First, despite what the title says, I have not yet seen “Civil War”, so this won’t spoil anything for you. Also, you vermin out there better not spoil it for me. Or else I’ll… um… be mad? or something? Whatever, you’re good people, I ain’t worried. Had a discussion recently, and I learned that there […]

Break something with Jesus this weekend

This is the weekend I get a crowbar to tear apart a wooden monstrosity in my home. I’m moving soon, and I don’t want to bring this dead weight with me.

Oh Crap This Is Still Here

That’s right, I still have a blog. No, no, I didn’t just forget that I had a blog. I’m just really really bad at keeping some kind of writing schedule for it. No excuse, just an explanation. Do I have any thoughts of a political nature? Not recently. It’s the same old shit, isn’t it? […]

Feminists are what now?

This will be quick. There’s a trending hashtag on twitter: #FeministsAreUgly It’s immediately clear that the tag is meant to troll. I’m not sure how the tag started, and I’m not willing to wade so far into the swirling bowl that I actually touch the poop. But it’s obviously not some kind of ‘conversation starter’ […]

My Key

With all of the crazy stuff these days happening with the intrusion of government on our right to privacy and the surveillance state that’s been built here in the US, I thought I’d talk about something that’s important to me. We need to be able to talk to each other without someone else listening in, […]

Stephen Fry’s Open Letter to David Cameron and the IOC

Stephen Fry says it better than I ever could, so I’ll just send you to his page instead. An Open Letter to David Cameron and the IOC

No Children

I’m going to be honest, this blog post seems a bit ridiculous to me for a couple of reasons. One – I’m writing a post about an article online that’s talking about an article in Time magazine. So that’s pretty silly. Two – It’s about something that I have gotten flak about in person. It’s about a […]

More than just Four

Hey all, I talked about the importance of the Fourth Amendment yesterday (and my concern with what our government has been doing). But I’m going to dedicate this whole post to the Bill of Rights and the rest of the Constitution. I’m taking this directly from the government archives website. When was the last time […]

Significance of the Fourth

The Fourth Amendment, that is. It’s the amendement in the US Constitution (it’s been there since the very beginning) that guarantees a citizen’s right to privacy and unreasonable searches. The US Government has been unlawfully spying on all of its citizens. We need to make the government aware that this is not acceptable. There are […]
