  • He Lives in our Heads

    I just told Stephanie to shut up about Donald Trump. He is living in both our heads. He’s just a bum. He’s not a god. He is not a demon. Presidents are supposed to go away. I really hope on January 20th, 2029 he goes away. Back to real estate. Maybe he’ll find Jesus. Jesus…

  • Asymmetric Warfare

    I live in Wisconsin, USA. The US government excels at asymmetric warfare. I signed on the dotted line to be a US soldier and started working towards officer certification. Somewhere along the line I had a sergeant who was also an Airborne Ranger take me aside and tell me that if I wasn’t willing to…

  • Art and Politics

    I made a new server on Discord last week. It’s for my politics. The one I had already is for my art. My art friends came to my political server but my political friends didn’t come to my art server. Art is inherently political and politics is an artform. I am currently working on being…

  • Strange Arguments

    I have been completely logged out of META for about two weeks. I have very little inclination to return. I am being contacted by the people who need access to me. I am still available by phone call, text, on Discord and on my two websites. I will be spending more energy on real connections.…

  • Structure of Civilization

    I wish I better understood the structure of civilization. I like it here in the Wild West of that structure. I joke that Dodge Street was living on the edge of society in the center of town. I never realized how common that was until recently. In some ways I’m feeling like the edge of…

  • Chicken Fries

    I broke down today and spent money we will probably need later on DoorDash. We ordered Burger King. I got chicken fries for the first time. They were too chewy but I’m eating out of the corner of my mouth because of my bad front tooth. Food in the right shape is important and chicken…

  • Video Games and Drugs

    I am thinking about obsessive and addictive behavior today. As anyone who has been following me for very long knows I play an excessive amount of video games. I am much more moderate with my alcohol and THC use. But they fill a lot of the same functions in mental health /illness. They are an…

  • Different

    I am different from anyone else. That really isn’t saying much since every individual is unique. The question is whether I am more unique. I joked with my dad today that we were embarrassingly white. I remember a joke book that poked fun at WASPs (white Anglo Saxon Protestants). I didn’t realize that all those…

  • Snow in March

    We got six inches of heavy wet snow. Over the course of the day I’ve gotten all of our sidewalks scraped off and most of the driveway. I’ve got to get the rest of the driveway in the morning because I ran out of light. I took my pills a few minutes ago so I…

  • Baptized Mormon

    Today it has been 29 years since I was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. That is the longest I have been officially affiliated with any organization in my life. It beats out the Episcopal Church by a little bit at this point. The next one I can think of…
