It's the end of November and I'm still having trouble accepting that. Ah, well. Anyhow. The United States Supreme Court will hear a major case that could have far-reaching effects on access to abortion for women who aren't rich. The case, Dobbs v Jackson Women's Health Organization, will decide the constitutionality of Mississippi's recently implemented ban on abortions … Continue reading Monday, November 29, 2021 →

The Weekend: September 4-5, 2021

It's been a rough week all over. Just to do some public whining and show how disengaged from reality my ego truly is, I've been fighting off a nasty... something all weekend. It wasn't so much a cold as a sinus infection, I think. I figure it spun off from whatever's been making my eyes … Continue reading The Weekend: September 4-5, 2021 →

Monday, August 30, 2021

The power went out just as I was getting organized to write tonight’s News. If it comes back on before midnight I’ll take care of business. If not, I’ll do something tomorrow morning or whenever we get power again. Anyway, it’d be more stuff on Ida. Stay safe. And we're back. A transformer blew last … Continue reading Monday, August 30, 2021 →

The Weekend: August 7-8, 2021

We made it through the first full week of August without burning to a crisp, being washed away by raging floodwaters, or dying because our arrogance prevented us from taking basic measures to prevent infection by an out-of-control killer virus. And there's your Gibberish for this week, too. Clever, I thought, particularly for around 1,600 words of nothing … Continue reading The Weekend: August 7-8, 2021 →

The Weekend: June 26-27, 2021

It's the last full weekend of June and July is almost upon us. It's really true, time does pass faster once you get older, so enjoy what you got while you got it, kids. Granted, if you sleep as much as I do, the days just gallop by. But that's neither here nor there. Let's … Continue reading The Weekend: June 26-27, 2021 →

The Weekend: May 8-9, 2021

I pretty much checked out all day today as I'm still recovering from Thursday's all-night Actual Paying Work session. That and we've got another thunderstorm front that's moved in. So the way I figure, this has been a day worth ignoring. I gave Momma a hug this morning and figured that was in. Anyhow, let's … Continue reading The Weekend: May 8-9, 2021 →

Friday, December 4, 2020

It's the last day of the first week of the last month of the year. So let's concentrate on a positive development. However, with all things, there's good news and there's bad news. That's just how life is, y'all. This morning quite unexpectedly, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the MORE Act, or the Marijuana Opportunity … Continue reading Friday, December 4, 2020 →

Wednesday, November 11, 2020

I have had another day. Again, it's not interesting enough to share and not heavy enough to be a hanging matter but it has nevertheless been a day. So, I'm just now taking a good look at the news so as to do the News. Don't expect much, is what I'm saying. For the most … Continue reading Wednesday, November 11, 2020 →

Friday, August 28, 2020

Well, it's definitely been a week that needed wrapping up, so let's do just that. I held off this morning because I figured something interesting would happen today. It did not. Oh, well. We'll start with Laura, then. It made landfall Wednesday evening as a Category 5, making it one of the strongest hurricanes to … Continue reading Friday, August 28, 2020 →

Wednesday August 19, 2020

Going to be later today. Feeling lazy this morning and contemptuous of society. Can’t even be bothered to use pronouns. Check back later. Might have something useful. UPDATE: Well, it's 8 p.m. and I have some Actual Paying Work to do so I might as well squeeze this out. Hell, they've changed WordPress on me. … Continue reading Wednesday August 19, 2020 →
