  • Conscience Protections in the USA

    For a while now I’ve been advocating for robust conscience protections. I have been thinking about what that looks like. The first freedom is freedom of the mind. There are no thought crimes. A person should be allowed to contemplate and imagine anything he or she would like. The next freedom is freedom to express.…

  • My Family versus My Headache

    I woke up feeling sick this morning. I had a headache and some queasiness. I took some pills and went to a family function anyway. They’re good people but they annoy me. I’d rather be at my computer than in front of a fire. My oldest son didn’t come because he had to work. But…

  • Foster Sister

    Growing up my parents took in a whole lot of kids. They came almost exclusively from deeply troubled homes. Some stayed with us for a day, or a month, and a few for several years. Of the forty or fifty foster siblings I have had in my life one stayed in regular contact with our…

  • A Huge Fan

    I have a huge fan. Sadly it’s not the kind of fan that writes me love letters or puts money in my PayPal. It’s a fan in the ceiling of the second floor which draws hot air up and out. When it gets cool in the evening we can open windows and it sucks the…

  • Bluer than Blue

    I am all alone in the house. That has never been particularly bad for me. When everyone is gone I sometimes sing the old song Bluer than Blue to myself: “And when you’re gone/ I can run through the house screaming/ And no one will ever hear me/ Oh I really should be glad/ But…

  • Pharmacy after a Holiday

    I worked pharmacy tonight. I really expected it to be worse than it actually was. The crew is good which always helps. I still feel like I’m half a tech but even the support I can give seems useful. But now I’m tired and hungry. I remind myself that I need this job because I…

  • Listen Well and Remind People of their Dignity

    I had another vision… I heard the sound of Internet dial up againBut I knew I was in the space between dreams and waking this timeIn a flash the White Spirit appeared to me againHe was radiant and still in the form of a manBut the white wind rushed around him and it blurred his…

    It’s the Fourth of July, but y’all still want to shop, so I’m going to be at Walgreens keeping the lights on. We are not the same. 4 July 2023

  • Awake in the Morning

    One of the downsides off THC and caffeine is that insomnia still stinks. 3 July 2023

  • Another Church

    My ride to church has been out of town for two weeks so I went to another church with a friend of mine. He’s a pastor and it’s a change of pace to listen to him preach a 45 minute sermon compared to a Latter Day Saint sacrament meeting. One thing struck me very hard…
