An Improviser’s approach to energy

One of my favorite hobbies is improv theater/comedy. Like the TV Show “Whose Line is it Anyway?” or the live shows that I watched or did here in San Diego. One of the basic tenants to good improv is “yes and,” meaning that the premise pitched by your scene partner is accepted and built upon, […]

Atop the slippery slope of Critical Race Theory, and how we’ve already started sliding.

If I were to ask you what white supremacy means, can you give me an answer without Googling it? I certainly couldn’t anymore. Something to the effect of the domination of a particular racial group (in this case Whites), over all others. However, today’s definition includes the use of power structures and hierarchies in order […]

The power of projection.

Featured image credit Victor Fitzpatrick, click to follow more of the artist’s work. I have a friend, who shall remain nameless, who struggled for a long time with paranoia and anxiety, would often tell me how often she would run into people who were connected to someone from her past. More than that I will […]

This is exactly why we need free speech… and why I’m voting for Trump

Cancel culture, censorship, thought speech, implicit bias, silence is violence, my truth, disinformation, misinformation. What has been happening over the last decade, and particularly over the last 4 years in the “free press” has been both hilarious and frightening. Recently, an article was published in the New York post that has been removed on social […]

An Inconvenient fact

I have had the same conversation many times regarding the founding of the country and the 3/5ths Compromise. Many of today’s “woke” progressives, when posed with the question regarding how the then enslaved African slaves would be counted in terms of representation, would have said they should get full representation, signaling their virtue and giving […]

Why government isn’t the answer

I can’t tell you how many times I have heard, “Well someone should make a law about that,” or “well there should be a program to deal with that.” And yet, when we look at local, state, and even the federal budgets, we are drowned in a sea of red ink, mismanagement, graft, nepotism, and […]

Biden’s Brave New World

For what it’s worth, I have no clue who the hell is going to win the election. The polls were wrong in 2016, but they show Trump at near a double-digit or a double-digit deficit against Biden. The pollsters have said that they fixed the issues, but who’s to say. I’ve heard and read about […]

The Death of American Civility

I scroll through my social media feeds and watch how silent everything is getting. I’m unsure whether that means I’ve finally been unfollowed or blocked by enough people to get back to seeing normal content or if people have finally grown weary of all the political hysteria that has rocked this political cycle. But either […]

An open letter to liberals

Dear liberals, I am done listening to you. I am done trying to debate you. I am done trying to have a discussion with you in forums of your choice. I am done trying to live alongside you. I am done trying to support your right to speak your mind. And do you understand why? […]

Postmodernism and the descent into madness.

Thanks to Fabio Roveron for the featured image. Postmodernism is an interesting field of thought, scary and inherently dangerous, but interesting. Much of today’s political discourse (or lack thereof) is based in this school of thought, and it helps unlock why many who follow the philosophy/religion that has become “identity politics” are unwilling or unable […]
