Sometimes, It’s Not Supposed To Make Any Sense

Earlier this week, I discovered that my disability hearing, the second one in four years had come back with an unfavorable decision. I’ve been trying to get my disability for five years now. Each day, I feel my body growing weaker and this week has been a hard one. On Tuesday, I could barely makeContinue reading “Sometimes, It’s Not Supposed To Make Any Sense”

Rest In Power, Gena Rowlands, Queen Of Independent Films

The old saying goes, “Behind every good man is a good woman.” Well, the same can apply to John Cassavetes and his wife, Gena Rowlands. The two would marry while they were in their mid-20s and spend the next 35 years not only building a marriage and family, but also one of the most notableContinue reading “Rest In Power, Gena Rowlands, Queen Of Independent Films”

You Gotta Admit The Olympics Were Something Else This Time

Let’s face, the Olympics are usually hit or miss. Sometimes they are so basic you feel like there’s more excitement at the elementary school field day. And then, there’s one that blows the others out of the water. Even before the first event started, the Paris Olympics seemed like they were going to be memorableContinue reading “You Gotta Admit The Olympics Were Something Else This Time”

Why Strong Women Are Hated

When Donald Trump sat before the National Association of Black Journalists, one had to wonder would he actually put on his big-boy pants. That was a quick no the minute Trump opened his mouth and went on the defensive toward journalist Rachel Scott. He then did what he always does and deflect issues toward KamalaContinue reading “Why Strong Women Are Hated”

Can Bringing Back Robert Downey Jr. Save The MCU Or Is It Doomed?

Five years ago, the executives as Disney and Marvel Studios had one helluva summer. Avengers: Endgame had made almost $2.8 billion worldwide. And the fan’s reaction to it was phenomenal. So, I’m sure they thought all they had to do was to keep doing what they were doing and it would all work out. Unfortunately,Continue reading “Can Bringing Back Robert Downey Jr. Save The MCU Or Is It Doomed?”

Another One Of My Furbabies Crosses Rainbow Bridge

Sometimes, life happens. And sometimes, life abruptly ends. Earlier today, I was awaken by my cat, BeeBee, who was crying. He was at the foot of my bed and I thought he was wanting some attention. He had been lazy the last few days, but I thought it was because of the summer heat waveContinue reading “Another One Of My Furbabies Crosses Rainbow Bridge”

Please Help If You Can

The Tahlequah LGBTQIA organization is asking for help for someone who is recovering from a recent surgery. Unfortunately, they were denied short-term leave with compensation and need some help with their bills. If you can, please make a CashApp donation to $TahlEquality2014 and type “Love Donation” in the notes so they get the funds toContinue reading “Please Help If You Can”

You’re So Vain! You Probably Think This Ceremony Is About You!

One of my cousins made the most accurate comment about the criticism this weekend over the opening ceremonies of the Olympics in Paris. He said, from what he’s heard, people are upset it wasn’t “American enough.” Now, my cousin is a conservative. He’ll probably still vote for Donald Trump. But he speaks the truth. IContinue reading “You’re So Vain! You Probably Think This Ceremony Is About You!”

The Homoeroticism Of Donald Trump By His Fanbase Is Telling

It’s ironic that the same political party that has an intolerable hatred and cruelty to the LGBTQIA community is so in love with making Donald Trump out to be some Adonis Olympiad hero. However, that isn’t even the case. Let’s face it, even Robert F. Kennedy Jr. knows his limitations when he tries to showContinue reading “The Homoeroticism Of Donald Trump By His Fanbase Is Telling”
