41: An Autobiography
An Autobiography

Thanks, Gabino!
There’s been a lot of talk of aging and life stories this week, so for #FridayReads I would like to mention my autobiography, 41, my story of becoming a horror author, my mom’s passing at only 40 right after 9/11, and breaking cycles of trauma.

I don’t think we should be going “eww!”
I think we should be demanding to know what these people had on each other that this was how they treated and talked about/to each other. Most likely, something much more vile we REALLY don’t want to see or think about, but we need it to end this.

Hey Megyn Kelly,
14-year-old Eloise would like a word:
“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”
Sound up! 🔥🔊

It’s a tough book and so is the film, but when the plane crashes into the house and he immediately declares they’ll take it has always stuck with me in “cheerily” accepting disaster.

Adults who want to fuck kids 18 and younger deserve prison. A 30 year old fucking a 19 year old should be extremely suss. People defending cradle-robbers deserve conspiracy and accomplice charges.
Screw your etymological technicalities.These are manipulative crimes—doing them AND defending them.

Metroid Prime 2 & 3, Hunters, and Other M had more than Samus. Where I didn’t exactly love the story of Other M, as a GAME, it’s fun and innovative. An Ocarina of Time Navi character in Metroid? From Nintendo? Not unprecedented.
"Samus, there's something interesting over there. Are you sure we don't need to use that?"
I feel my soul leave my body...
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond delivers the series' trademark gameplay - but one very annoying addition might derail the whole thing:

Housing should be a right.
UBI should be instituted.
Education does need a national standard so if families move, schooling isn’t severely interrupted. It should extend through the Basics of college—the courses everyone has to take no matter what—graduate into the world with an Associates, for free.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The fact that the estate released files that implicate Donald Trump, files that the DOJ/FBI have, proves that Pamela Jo Bondi and Kash Patel are actively involved in a criminal cover-up.
The Epstein files released today did not come from the DOJ's Epstein Files. They came from Epstein's estate. Pam Bondi is still protecting Trump at all costs. Today's release by Democrats was aimed at undermining her efforts. And to make it harder for Donald to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell.

I thought Megan had been victimized at Fox News? Objectified anyway… I recall 45 being upset with her pressing him on issues when she moderated a debate and making nasty comments about her. But now she’s an advocate for child sex abuse and running cover for him.
Cool.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Recounted it recently. A high school (1997 or so) girlfriend’s dad complained women gaining the vote, work, and fair wages was pulling men’s wages down and they couldn’t support their families. He seemed disappointed his wife and daughter worked. His opinion scared me more than him as the gf’s dad.
You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

If the distraction is a speaker on every street corner that randomly blares inappropriate sound—sex, violence, body sounds, a klaxon, etc—it should be dealt with expeditiously as if it is a public health hazard. When the distraction is louder than the “issues,” it IS the issue.

No aurora borealis tonight in Tulsa, and I completely missed it yesterday. Tried to set up and be ready this evening on the roof, get some height to see the northern sky in my neighborhood. Canon Eos 2000D isn’t designed for this, but it can see more than I can. 🔭
