Dirty Stinkin' Commies! (And Other Improprieties)

    So it has come down to it at last. The final nail in the coffin. The ending waltz on the dance floor. The last Pringle in the can. Or something. Either way, we have sworn in another president, we have upheld our particularly American brand of Democracy, and we are all certainly awaiting every politician to be taken into custody, executed, and then for Trump to rule forever. Q just has to be correct right? The track record is.... stunning? Pictured: Q at his computer, or something. Creator: Rembrandt  |  Credit: Hermitage     Either way, our country has reached the dawning of a new administration. An event that has happened 45 previous times, and will undoubtedly happen many many more. But along the way, there was a bit of... discourse, if you could call it that. Most of it was spurned on by the greatest of all threats in this day and age, the Keyboard Warriors. Yes, this multi-class, 12th level, 5h Edition DnD champion has, for the last 5-6 ye...

Handmaiden's Tale was not Supposed to be a Handbook

I would first like to thank everyone for reading my recent post about my father. It meant a lot to me that so many would be moved by my thoughts and words about someone who meant so much in my life. Now though, my thoughts are clearer, my sadness has receded somewhat, and I am ready to come back into the world. Lets see what I missed... (All Rights held by The New York Times) Oh for f^@&s sake... Abortion has been a hot bed topic in America for a vast number of years. Ever since crusty old politicians realized that they could extend their grimy fingers into the lives of others, some have tried to use this power to push their own religious and personal beliefs. And while some people (ed note: Smart people) would say that a politicians place is to enforce and enact the will of the people they represent, others will chime in and say this is how it's always been done. And so, I welcome back my guest from my first post ever, Abraham Lincoln , to offer us a sage quote ...

"In Their Language, Arrows Mean Hello."

So this topic may be considered insensitive, but hear me out until the end before lighting the tiki torches. (ed note: I'm allergic to fire) Aren't tiki torches racist now? Is this worse?  A couple weeks ago, a would be missionary named John Chau set out on a pilgrimage to the North Sentinel Island in the Bay of Bengal , in the Indian Ocean . He was attempting to contact the tribe to spread Christianity, and, ostensibly, convert them to followers and members of modern society. Upon arriving, he was shot at with several warning arrows and forced to leave, however, he returned later on in the week, and was no longer warned, being killed with multiple arrows on the spot. Now, I feel I don't have to tell anyone of the dire ramifications of trying to march up to people currently shooting arrows at you, but nonetheless, he did, and is no longer living due to this action. While it may sound cold, the further problems with this story will reveal why exactly I, as well as ...

I'm not Racist! I love [INSERT MINORITY HERE]

Today I want to talk about a certain group of people. These people, they are just the worst. They don't care about what happens to the others groups around them. They always try to impose their ways unto others. They dress weird, act weird and have such strange "fun" activities and past-times. I really can't see how anyone can stand them at all. And their food is so disgusting! And the worst part of it all? They always move into a neighborhood and it change it to suit their needs. I mean, I used to know this great place, and it got changed completely to suit the new demographics. I just can't stand them. What? I haven't mentioned who it is I'm talking about? Well, its obvious isn't it? Why? Who're YOU thinking about? Damn illegals. Racism, like stupidity, knows no color. Any group of people can be racist against another. That's a simple fact. And it's further illustrated by our thoughts. Such as this; who exactly did you think...

The New Mythologies - Part 1: The Old Gods

QUICK ! How many have seen Disney's Hercules ? 1, 2, 4... Okay, that's at least 10 people. Didn't want to make a post no one cared about. I any case, what do I remember about Hercules? The Disney version of course. Well, he is the son of doting father Zeus who is sent down from Mount Olympus to live as a mortal because the evil nasty Hades was, jealous, or something. So Zeus, who is totally so sweet guys, sends him away as a child to protect him. Over time, Hercules grows up, becomes a strapping young man, learns of his secret lineage, and eventually, confronts Hades and stops him from releasing the Titans, ancient mythological beasts of pure hatred and destruction. Along the way, he is assisted by a wise cracking Satyr, a WOKE-AF strong woman named Meg, and a funny, dog-like Pegasus. Its only after defeating Hades and the Titans that he is allowed to take his godhood and earn his rightful place on Mount Olympus. Sounds plenty wholesome! Fun for the whole famil...
