The Art of the Kneel: Part II

Your representatives aren't leaders; they’re cheap, desperate prostitutes, who will do anything for power, to stay in power, and an easy payday.

The Art of the Kneel

The thing most people don’t understand about sheep is that they actually enjoy being sheared, as long as the shepherd tells them their wool is being stolen by another flock. It’s breathtaking to witness the level of strategic stupidity required to keep voting for the same parasites who&

The Lights Didn’t Flicker...

It’s the visceral reality of being hunted by a god-like intelligence that views your screams as you would a gust of wind.

Fake, Friendless, and Full of Shit

Fake, Friendless, and Full of Shit

Scott Jennings is an arrogant attention whore. There was no point, whatsoever, in addressing the statement he made on CNN back in July, unless you've faded back into irrelevance and need a bump to get you through the week. Beyond being a whore, he's trying to

Paper Shields

There is nothing a human being won’t lie about. We’re pathological about it. We are conditioned to believe that the survival of a democracy is guaranteed by the act of pushing a button or meticulously filling in a circle on a piece of cardstock every few years, or

Stale, hand-wringing, right-of-center Democrats, take notice. People may finally be sick and tired of saccharine, pseudo-polite politicians willing to sacrifice minority groups in pursuit of an imaginary middle ground with a far right that has no intention of meeting them there. The Advocate's Josh

Snake Eyes...

Because he didn't earn his seat; he married it.

PART III The air feels charged, like that weird tension right before a lightning strike. You can see it everywhere; the barista snapping at a customer for taking too long to order, or the way people are walking down the sidewalk, shoulders squared and aggressive, like they're marching

We’re number one! It’s what some bloated louse running for political office will tell you. They’re right… When it comes to trash, America is indeed number one. We make up 4% of the world’s population but make 12% of its garbage. Might surprise you to learn

The Ignorance We’ve been raised on a steady diet of cinematic tropes where the plot is settled by a montage and a triumphant orchestral swell, leading us to believe that every global conflict is essentially a high-school drama with larger missiles. We don't do shades of

A Good Guy With A Spine What makes a paranoid conspiracy fiend, with right wing extremist ideological leanings and a propensity to become nearly violent almost instantly a “good guy”. A collection of 336 firearms and a small warehouse full of ammunition, naturally. To nonviolent people, who aren’t obsessed

PART II Parasites are fascinating creatures. They don't kill the host immediately; that would be inefficient. They burrow into the soft tissue, drink the nutrients, and use the body as a vehicle to reach the next meal. They turn the host into a shell, a hollowed-out husk

America as the Center of All Things Shit It’s important to preface here, that gaslighting is used by people to get you to question your sanity, to doubt your ability to make choices confidently. It’s designed to beat you down, break your independence, and the longer it goes

PART I It is a curious thing, the way a human being will cling to a familiar pain rather than risk the terror of a new one. Pain is the only thing we can truly guarantee another person will feel. I see them every morning. The commuters. The clock-watchers.

The Empire of Entitlement: Part I

You’re being attacked, in some way, shape or form, and while you’re being attacked, your attacker(s) break their ankle kicking you in the nuts. They’re in agony now, and while they’re hobbling around in agony, and you’re lying in the fetal position, your attacker(

Cockroaches in Khakis...

I’ve always wondered if they buy the khakis in bulk, or if there’s some sort of discount for people who want to look like a mid-level regional manager for a failing, mid-nineties paper company. The attire was the first clue that we weren’t dealing with

There are a lot of insufferable things happening in America right now; inflation, failing infrastructure, brain-damaged, steroid addicts using the Nazi salute to salute orange cancer, in front of our White House, while a few dozen traitors in camo applauded like soulless seals at a zoo in Kabul, but

“Skeets”. Are you serious? Listen, I get it, Twitter called them “tweets,” and Bluesky is supposed to be the alternative, so some clearly big-brained individual thought that giving it a half-assed tweaking was clever. Yeah. That really sets the place apart, doesn’t it? Unfortunately, it’s not

Freedom 250: Bleaching What's Left of America

Memorial Day isn’t a barbecue. It isn’t a mattress sale. It isn’t the unofficial start of summer. It’s the day Americans stand knee-deep in ghosts. But more than that, it’s a debt etched in stone, carved into the earth where the bodies of soldiers,
