Ability Zine!

I have a new zine ready for the printer. All I need is to round up the capital to print it, find a printer, pay for it, and do it! I’m well on the way to accomplishing most of that. For some of it, I’m launching a little Kickstarter campaign. My stated goal is to […]

My button

The counselors at the school where I work have been making a strong campaign to expand gender awareness and acceptance among students and staff. Part of their campaign involved making buttons for all the staff stating our preferred pronouns. It got me thinking long and hard about my use of personal pronouns and how they […]

Jojo Rabbit

Go and see it already. It deserves all the Oscars that Greta Gerwig’s Little Women doesn’t get. Also, they should both be up for Best Director, but, sorry Greta and Taika, neither of you are both white enough and male enough to be nominated this year. Maybe collaborate next time?

John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch

Spoiler alert! If you are a David Byrne completist, you need to watch this Netflix special. I could say other good things about this very interesting piece of media, but I’ll choose just one: Natasha Lyonne makes an appearance as well.

A long list of disappointments

I was tempted to write a post about the long list of things I find terrible or disappointing in this world and with just about everybody in it. And then I realized it’s 3:30 pm. I often feel like this around 3:30 pm. Other times of day I’m much more optimistic. So, I’m just going […]

Resolution!

Short but sweet. It is hereby resolved that, for the year that is known as 2020, I will write for at least 20 minutes for each of 20 days out of every month. I may even invent my own calendar so 2020 can have 20 months in it. This will be tricky, and will probably […]

Glowing Monkey Junk Sconce

We live in a world where you can buy this for $450. Sometimes I feel like there’s no point in even trying to write a blog anymore. Then I see an add on the internet that is clearly targeted to someone very weird and I realize this old blogotrope is doing something after all. I’m […]

Last Christmas

If you want to get kicked in the gut by a holiday themed Romantic Comedy, this one will do it. It’s Paul Feig and Emma Thompson’s weird, dark George Michael joke. It’s set in December 2017. Listen to the song. Check the George Michael wikipedia page for the dates. Do the math. Recoil in horror. […]
