Ugh. Make it make sense! Challenge accepted. What are you talking about? I’m going to make it make sense. Picture this: They gathered in the conference room with the usual chit-chat. The project manager closed the door bringing everyone to attention. “Big news, everyone. Big news. We got a new job. The K Boys were…
I find Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) incredibly attractive. Like movie star/fashion model attractive. I actually think she’s better looking than many of the actors and models that are famous for being good looking. It’s weird and it makes me uncomfortable. Harris has been elected Vice President of the United States and I can’t help but be…
A few months ago, I had an interesting interaction on the dating site OkCupid. This woman’s pictures were nice and her write-up made her seem promising, so I liked her and sent her a note. It wasn’t anything special, but she responded. We exchanged a few messages. It was the usual small talk. Then, she…
After the New Hampshire primary, I was on Twitter. I ran across a Bernie Bro gleefully saying that Elizabeth Warren got what she deserved with her disappointing finish because she had gone after Bernie Sanders. He was talking about Warren saying that Sanders said that a woman couldn’t win the presidency, which I wrote a…
I wanted to say a little something about the latest kerfuffle in the Democratic Primary race. Elizabeth Warren said that, in a closed door meeting between the two, Bernie Sanders said that a woman couldn’t win the presidency. Sanders denies saying any such thing. Audio was captured after the last presidential debate of them arguing…
Time for my seventh entry in the 12 stories in 12 months writing challenge. This month the prompt was “Men and Women.” That’s an easy one. Probably more than 95% of all the stories ever written are about men and women. But the word count was 300. That’s hard. I’m a fan of short, the…
I’m normally very interested in politics. I pay close attention. I vote. I like to talk and argue about politics. And I like to write about politics. This election is different, though. I find myself avoiding the news. I don’t want to talk about it or write about it. A small part of that comes…
For some reason, many (not all) people are either unable or unwilling to see the sexism being directed at Hillary Clinton this primary season. I know I’ve been going on about this, but I thought I’d give it one more try. But, this time I’m going to go about it differently. I’m going to provide…
I wasn’t going to comment on this. When I saw on the news on Thursday that Bernie Sanders had said that Hillary Clinton is not qualified to be president, I was going to ignore it. I was sure about a million other people would talk about it, so why add my voice? Plus, I’m completely…
There are rats in New York City. That probably doesn’t surprise anyone. In fact, there are lots and lots of rats. Estimates range from 2-10 million rats. Even on the low end, 2 million rats is a lot of rats. There are also people in New York City. This, again, probably doesn’t surprise anyone. In…
