Hi all. My name is Gaines. Feel free to say hello :-) I keep a blog over at www.otherspect.com

History 42%
Political science 30%

Saw the doctor yesterday. She told me there is a problem with my head, and the most clear-cut solution would be to simply remove it. Arrangements have been made for the surgeon to give me a call in the next couple of weeks.

In the spirit of Halloween, I've made a horror-esque short story I wrote a long time ago free on Amazon for a couple of days. It was inspired by thinking about food allergies. More info -- https://www.otherspect.com/books/topt . There are links to its various Amazon pages. Enjoy!

Spring can be quite beautiful. It’s good to lift your head and have a look around now and then.

Hey dimwit: It’s because the exorbitant tariffs you have imposed on China. They are looking to other countries for better trade deals. You fvkking m0r0n.

Magic (a poem)

What is magic?
Magic is
That electric anticipation of a kiss:
The parting of lips,
The flow of breath,
Heartbeats accelerating
Into interweaving rhythm.
It is that touch of a father’s hand
To his son’s shoulder,
Wise eyes…

Beautiful

Indeed

Democracy is in a war against totalitarianism and greed. Literally, we are at war against China, Russia, Israel, and the US. Those four countries are now allied, and it’s time we wake up and realise this. This war is different in form from the last world war, but it's war nonetheless. Wake up.

Gestapo is right

Curious Currawong 🙂

Exactly.

Awesome

Ha, nice

Hang in there.

Thanks. It’s called “Free”.

Sometimes it feels like the world is ending. I lie awake at night, and then just want to go straight back to dreamland after I wake up in the morning. But I have hope, too. This song is what came out of those emotions.

Goodness. I’ve neglected this platform. I have been posting flute music stuff on YouTube as a way of procrastinating work. Here’s one, if anyone is interested:

Gulf of Mexico.

Trouble is, Trump will not do anything against Putin. Not really. Because Putin has him in his pocket. If that isn’t clear by now, I don’t know what is. It has been clear since 2015 at least.

They are plenty grounds for impeachment, but his political party holds the majority in Congress; and a large majority - 2/3rds if memory serves - is required to successfully remove a him. For the impeachment to lead to a removal, you need enough votes to make it happen.

Thank you! I’d be happy to share; just didn’t want to come across as solicitous or spammy

Me too :-) Am trying to write it, in fact. I’ve always loved storytelling in any form though.
