Beyond Atheism
I was insufferable enough when I was just an atheist. But in the last few years, it’s gotten worse.
Manis PigPenus
Recently, I’ve been diagnosed with a chronic and progressive disease. No worries, it’s not fatal — as long as I “treat it” correctly.
My first hater
“Chacha,” an anonymous and apparently literary genius of the internet, gave this bullshit it’s first “real” bad review.
Cold cash for more brew
Jesus wanted our money — but this time it was for a good cause: better brewing from Larry, for fuck’s sake.
The ears have it
I was watching one of those bullshit Hollywood chat shows, when I heard something interesting — yeah shocked me to.
Impartial Skin
My whole life I’ve been told how fair I am — fair skinned that is.
Now that shit is unacceptable and the PC police have been attacking “fair” skin for being unfair.
Feeding my face
I got a new iPhone with face recognition. Now my Twitter feed is fucking with me.
Post POTUS
Michelle Obama said she has “low-grade depression” due to covid-19. Who the fuck doesn’t? But it got me thinking — if even men get postpartum depression what the hell happens to every first family when the POTUS high is over.
My own hero
I’ll bet you didn’t know, but I’m a fucking hero. I’m saving the ocean with every stupid search on the Google I make.
Bet on Treatment
It’s a race to see what will come first for Covid-19: a treatment or a vaccine. Put your money on the treatment — there is no money in vaccines.
Fat Biker: Fast Runner
One of the few joys of road biking is dominating the bike lane — easily passing runners, beach cruisers and mountain bikes.
Deadly Jobs
It’s a tragedy every time a police officer is injured or killed. But it shouldn’t be an excuse for shooting first and asking questions later.
Every year in the United States about 100 cops are killed in the line of duty. Half are accidents, the other half is murder. Cops kill about 1000 people a year. About 25 times more than people kills cops.
Carol Baskins and the 1 percent
We fled the summer hell in Arizona for heaven — San Diego.
Original plan was to spend more time in the LJBTC community. No Dogs allowed. But that got cancelled. We found a pet-friendly vacation rental in Del Mar, and that’s how Carol Baskins got to rent her time with the 1 percent. She lived up to her name, sort of.
A fan near the Fountain — Updated with Lewis Black audio
I was driving into Fountain Hills just as I heard Lewis Black reading my rant about Fountain Hills on his podcast. I’ve got the audio file to prove it.
Cops and Control
I like cops. I once tried to help control a riot — we needed the cops to restore order. I will forever be grateful for their presence that day. My father wrote a book on the history of modern police. (Sorry it’s out of print).
But cops and the entire criminal justice system need to change.
