Love is an overrated thing

Hear me out. Love can be a good thing. But in many cases, it can also be abusive. For many years, I tried to remain a good son to a vile, abusive woman who was supposed to be my mother. She abused me, physically and mentally, telling me I was worthless as anything but herContinue reading “Love is an overrated thing”

Election 24: what were you expecting?

I don’t know what everyone was expecting, honestly. They (being the other right wing party) did nothing about the train wreck in Palestine, OH (oh wait they did do something: they stopped a strike that would have stopped it from happening). They did fuck all to help the people of Maui after the wildfires andContinue reading “Election 24: what were you expecting?”

When the show ends And the credits roll Will you be proud With what was shown? When the lights fade And the bell tolls What will be made From what you’ve sown? Will there be cheers And applause?

I wish I could make Peking Duck (a Tale of Culinary Failure)

What foods would you like to make? When I was young and full of spunk, I had a love of cooking. That isn’t to say I still don’t cook, but way back when, I was more… experimental with my recipes. I would add extra ingredients to everyday dishes, like putting cooked shrimp and scallops intoContinue reading “I wish I could make Peking Duck (a Tale of Culinary Failure)”

Never give up, never surrender (on your dreams)!

I thought I would make this editorial due to the times. It can seem that in this age where they are shoving AI technologies down our throats meant to make us redundant and obsolete that trying to do anything creative is a meaningless exercise that will only end in failure and heartache. But I believeContinue reading “Never give up, never surrender (on your dreams)!”

We shoot horses for less

Religions make claims of peace while wading in the blood of others, Saying theirs is the word and law of the sky man, who isn’t the other sky man. They never talk about how the sky men all have similar names-that’s heresy, punishable by death. Politicians claim to work for the people, their pockets fatContinue reading “We shoot horses for less”
