Thought of the Day – 3/11/2022

Featured image from YouTube via Google. No link, I just looked it up… So Facebook decided it’s okay to hate Russians and call for violence against Russia and Russian people in the context of the War in Ukraine. That’s a thing that happened. The propaganda is so apparent now, it’s disgusting. How long until we […]

Thought of the Day – 3/10/22

I wish that I wasn’t right. I wish that we were still living in our golden age. Whoever cursed us to live in interesting times can stop it now. Seriously… We’re going to have to relearn some very difficult lessons. We’re going to have to go back to the basics. We’ll have to boil life […]

Thought of the Day – 3/9/2022

We are, as Bill Maher says, a silly people. We live in a delusional state of mind, believing that we can have everything with no cost or consequence. Here in the US, we want everyone to have a high-paying union job, free healthcare, electric vehicles for everyone, and all of our energy generated by completely […]

The Biden Administration has tried to portray themselves as mature, professional, and competent experts. They promised to end the virus, cure cancer, and implement a huge sweeping array of progressive changes in exchange for the votes of the American people. But 14 months in, what do we have? I’m paying nearly five dollars a gallon […]

Featured image by Céline Harrand. Follow the link for more of this artist’s work. I would like to start by a quote from Elenore Roosevelt. I am going to be small minded for a moment, but this leads to larger events, and then some even larger ideas. Elie Mystal, writer and commentator (and user of […]

Thought of the Day – 3/7/2022

There is so much going on in the world today. War in Ukraine, hyperinflation and borderline stagflation, housing prices in my home town beyond my ability to fulfill one of my bucket list items, food shortages, gas prices surging past five dollars a gallon in many parts of my town, constant stress and people still […]

Thought of the Day – 3/3/22

I like to describe myself as a “giver.” In relationships, and in life generally, what brings me joy and happiness is seeing my partner happy, or that others are happy. At it’s best, I am rewarded with words of affirmation, and the knowledge that I am making a difference, however small, in the world. My […]

State of the Union:

Featured image by Fred PO. Follow the link for more of this artist’s work. I listened to the State of the Union address last night, following it on Timcast IRL, and for the most part I thought that Biden attempted to rally everyone in a mostly non-embarrassing way. It was a different tone from the […]

Thought of the Day – 3/1/2022

Often times, I wonder what the whole point of conflict is, and to whom it all benefits in the end. To the soldier on the ground, conflict is survival. You versus the enemy. Your life is in your hands, and your ability to be aware of your surroundings, your tactics, and the trust you have […]

Thought of the day – 2/28/22

Peace has always been an illusion. Conflict is a natural state of being for human. We wage war with our own inner selves, our inner demons. We are at odds in our interpersonal relationships, sometimes fighting losing battles against things larger than ourselves. Peace has always been a temporary state. I, like many of my […]
