Queer Trekkie Old Dude on a strange and difficult path.
Erklärbär.
I practice Buddhism because I'm terrible at it.
Autistic as a motherf***er.
I love humans, all of them, but humanity is a constant disappointment.

When all the sceptre'd crew
Have paid their Homage, due
The Guillotine
Let Freedom's flag advance
Till all the world, like France
O'er tyrants' graves shall dance
And PEACE begin.

Annual hand egg match is a good time to remind people that the most popular sport in the US, and the people who profit from it, are one step below tobacco companies in terms of morals. You can't market cigs to kids, but we still have high school football.
Enjoy your circus.

Today's fun was saying things that made my doctor uncertain about laughing. "Your blood-work was quite good, actually, especially..."
"For a fat little stub-man?"
Laughter won out, but it took a while.

One year our school superintendent declared that there had been "too many snow days" and that the next year there would be NO snow days.
So I walked to my early-bird pre-Algebra class in -30 degree winds (-35 Celsius).

If I see you use this word, I'll block you. If you use it "satirically" I'll block you. Using it at all today is a really fine test of character.
I've had some of my books edited because I used it twenty years ago and I'm ashamed today of having used it.
