Shitposting
Shit posting. There’s no other word for it and it’s exactly what I did yesterday. And that’s okay. Sometimes you’ve got to post shit. And for fuck’s sake, this is my own personally designed, written, and maintained blog hosted on server I built with my own two hands. I’m not making anyone visit—but I’m grateful…

Leftist
It’s been a tough day. Well, a tough couple of days. Don’t know why my body acts like a piece of shit. And when my body does, my mind does. The easiest way I can related it to you is to say imagine waking up with a hangover that more or less lasts all day,…

Indoctrination
I grew up in a deeply religious Christian family; Lutheran preachers in my mother’s blood line can be traced back to ancient Scotland.

Yelping!
Yelp! Back when I was blogging regularly I frequently wrote reviews. Well, not “frequently” in the “frequently” sense, but every now and then. I did it in part to provide feedback others out there might find useful. Mostly, I wrote reviews to improve my ability to articulate critical observational skills. So I’ve been thinking, why…

Pet Peeves: Stupid vs. Relevant
Whoever is pet peeve free shall cast the first stone. But who among us is pet peeve free? Indeed, what the hell is a peeve? Apparently it is, “a source of annoyance or irritation.” It’s no wonder we make them pets. I believe there are two types of pet peeves. Type I: Stoopid Pet Peeves…
