The Sleep is on me today. I didn't rest well last night, & all day I've been sluggish & dragging. Didn't do much besides sleep today, actually. I'm a little tired & run down from the week, & sleeping was more disinterest in dealing with the rest of the world than anything else. Did get … Continue reading Satuday, August 10, 2019

NFL Owners Have Always Been Terrible. It’s Just That Now The President Is Worse. by Charles P. Pierce
Interesting little article by Charlie Pierce about the absolute bastardry of NFL owners in a world where the President of the United States is even worse.
BREAKING: Jeffery Epstein is dead
If you haven't seen this, here you go. For what it's worth, I'm not buying any conspiracy theories that Clinton or Trump had him whacked. I imagine this can be chalked up to simple incompetence on the jailers' part, maybe that "rich guy hari kari" gentlemen's agreement that'll pop up now & then when one of … Continue reading BREAKING: Jeffery Epstein is dead

A quick thunder shower just blew through & it's hot & humid outside. Otis in his cave because the ground's pretty wet & he can't go outside. I'm sitting here listening to the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's seminal Uncle Charlie & His Dog Teddy. Specifically, "Mississippi Rain", which is about coming back to a small town … Continue reading Friday, August 9, 2019

The Sleep is upon me today. I used the infernal machine last night & slept fairly well, but I've got that dreary languor that I cannot place its cause. Same dragging feeling, same zombie mindset. Anyhow. Hey, remember that big round of arrests the ICE did yesterday at chicken plants across Mississippi? The one that … Continue reading Thursday, August 8, 2019
How I spent my summer.
Weird But True This what I've been up to lately. About three months ago, I decided to put down at least 500 words a day until something popped out. So far, nothing new. However, I've found myself drifting back to something I didn't want to get back into: dark political ruminations inspired by the writings … Continue reading How I spent my summer.
There are some days when the depression is all encompassing. It's like carrying a huge wet blanket, unwieldy & heavy. I don't want to do anything but sleep until I don't have to wake up again. I can't read, I can't play video games, I can barely think. It'll go away in a couple days, … Continue reading
Another day…
You've heard about the news in Christchurch, New Zealand, about how a right-wing white nationalist dickhead shot up a mosque & killed some folks. Apparently, the shooter streamed it & the video has been widely shared. Folks are freaking out about this, but you hear it every time there's a shooting: they want attention, don't give … Continue reading Another day…
Does anyone still use WordPress for that matter?
I wrote the below originally at my Blogger site, Weird But True. I don't know if I'll use WordPress for anything specific or even ever use it again, I just thought I'd get started. This whole exercise is predicated on the idea that a writer writes, even if there's nothing in particular to wri. I … Continue reading Does anyone still use WordPress for that matter?
