Lover of books. ASOIAF is the best. Cats are great. Dogs are fantastic. Despite my handle, I will never own a gun. I'll likely not post anything more political than that. Unless needed.
As a Michigan fan, I'll be honest. That was a touchdown.
But I was really hoping the Calvin Johnson rule carried on to college football.

When I read a headline that a woman was set on fire in the Chicago subway, I was more surprised that Chicago has a subway than that a woman was doused and ignited.
I thought it was the L for a reason.

In Grand Rapids, Michigan. City parks are closed during winter.
The parking lots are literally chained up.
I'm no genius but I'm pretty sure you can have fun in the snow.

I'm really enjoying Green Teeth by Molly O'Neill.
It's a very fun story of a lake monster, a witch, and a hob-goblin as they complete quest after quest to reach their ultimate goal of defeating a great evil.
Packed with British folklore and mythology, it stands above many other such retellings.

Before JK Rowling was a known transphobic, she was also the author of Harry Potter.
I read book one and as a fantasy fan, I found that very disconcerting
Then she turns out to be transphobic too! Talk about a double whammy.

The furniture. I believe that's how GRRM described it once.
My therapist and I have always vibed and been on the same page about everything but today I had to truly consider if we are actually compatible because I had to explain to her the difference between fantasy and sci-fi.

Now that's the end of the season, I'd like to thank my neighbors for their garden. I've picked green bell peppers, red bell peppers, chilli peppers, and jalapeño peppers all season long. Oh also, tomatoes. And cucumbers.
And they haven't given two fucks. Those are good neighbors.

I'm a die hard Tigers fan. I'm now rooting for Seattle. It took them 15 innings to detract those claws.
They deserve that win. They deserve their place.

I just came back from a bike ride to find a fawn... or rather a new doe in my front yard. She dashed away as I approached.
She was a beautiful creature and I wonder what she was doing in the city.
Where is her family?

As a Detroit Lions fan, I love the outcome of SNF. My two least favorite teams... The Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys throwing 40 pts against each other. To end it in OT in a tie.
And yet, it's been well over 12 hours and not a single player from either team has kissed their sister.

If you are looking for a good book series full of murder, evil, shape shifters, and LOL comedy, I recommend the Honey Badger Chronicles by Shelly Laurenston.
I have read thousands of books and I have never laughed so hard while reading these. Oh, and the plot line is good too.

I woke up at 7am to my neighbor's daughters screaming with joy in a ridiculous inflatable jungle gym.
At first, I was annoyed. Now... over 3 hours later, I'm laughing hard. How an inflatable jungle gym can entertain children for so long...it's beyond me. But it is cute.

The one and only time I went to Portland, I was at my first gay wedding reception, looking out the window and watching goats mow down thorns in a vacant lot.
All I could think was "This is fucking Portland"

Oh yeah, being repulsed by political violence makes me right wing, huh.
This is America. We strive on our differences. Sure, Charlie Kirk was a right wing asshole, but he wasn't about to start WWIII. You're the one giving him way too much credit.

the overall reaction to charlie kirk’s demise (online and in the media) treating him as a tragic loss when he was a repugnant white supremacist — and the pearlclutching over anyone who says as much — shows how and why this country is so much further to the right than we’re made to believe it is

The right wing is really making assumptions when they claim the the unknown killer of Charlie Kirk was liberal. First reports are that the shot was fired from ~200 yards. That means it was likely a rifle.
Have you ever met a Liberal who owns a rifle? I haven't. Just saying...

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

Stop trashing Charlie Kirk. When he was alive, sure. Now he's dead. Stop making him into something he wasn't. He was a right wing asshole. Now he's a dead right wing asshole who isn't alive to defend himself.
Don't make him a martyr. He isn't. In a few weeks, he will be forgotten.
