  • The Consequences

    “We are free to choose but we are not free from the consequences of our choices.” Russell M Nelson, Prophet and President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Some people think this is a religious message. Some people believe that this does not apply to them because they don’t believe in…

  • Humoring Trolls

    I shouldn’t feed trolls on the internet. I shouldn’t give them the time of day. I shouldn’t humor them. But I’m also not afraid of anonymous accounts on the internet. People who hide behind fake names to bully and badger others are contemptible and sad. It’s my pity for the internet troll that makes it…

  • Solo Adventures

    I have discovered that Meta receives user built AIs in its Messenger app. The other day I started a solo adventure in a Dungeons and Dragons style AI. It reminds me of my time as a teenager. I liked D&D more than most people. I played solo adventures against the random tables in the books.…

  • Mouse Traps

    Magic is not successfully killing all the mice in our house. She tries very hard but I decided to get some traps to help. The traps I saw were advertised as metal cages. Sadly the ones we actually got are small plastic boxes. So far the mice have not been tricked into entering them. Magic…

  • Columbus/ Indigenous Day

    Today Americans (well US people anyway) are fighting over who’s heritage is more important. In one corner is the European colonizers that started with Columbus. In the other corner are the indigenous peoples of what would eventually be called the Americas. There were some Nordic settlement in North America long before Columbus but they didn’t…

  • PRager U

    I made the mistake of convincing Stephanie to watch a PRager U video on human trafficking by the Mexican Drug Cartels. She wrote it off as propaganda before she even watched it. I felt the intelligence agent being interviewed made a solid case that we need to control the border better. Watching it did not…

  • Cats and Mice

    This morning Stephanie went to let one of our cats out and stepped on something by the front door. She let out a tiny panic noise because it was a dead mouse. Well technically it was half of a dead mouse because the cat who had killed it ate the head. Much to her chagrin…

  • Cultural Mormonism

    The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints does not like the word Mormon. It officially forbids members from calling ourselves one. The logic is sound of course for most members. We are to call ourselves Christians or Latter Day Saints. But if you’ve read more than a few of my posts then you…

  • Go For A Walk?

    I used to like long walks. So much so that I would occasionally take them in the night in the rain. Part of that was out of necessity. I have never had a driver’s license. I know I’d get someone killed. The sidewalks are safer when I’m on them without a car. But over the…

  • Rearranging Hours

    Stephanie and I are talking about changing how we bill for the boys to more accurately reflect what she and I actually do for them. I am hesitant because it would make the extra responsibility I am already taking official. I talked about the senate in my mind debating the issue. Like our very real…
