Rosa Parks Refused To Give Up Her Rights And Sparked A Revolution

Rosa Parks wasn’t the first black woman in the south who refused to give up their seats to white passengers on the transit buses. Parks had been born into a world in Jim Crow Alabama where black people had very little civil rights. In 1900, the Montgomery City Council had passed an ordinance basically sayingContinue reading “Rosa Parks Refused To Give Up Her Rights And Sparked A Revolution”

Friendsgiving With TahlEquality

TahlEquality held its second Friendsgiving on Saturday, Nov. 30. There was some changes to the time and location from the Tahlequah Unitarian Church to the Tahlequah office of the Mental Wellness Center of Oklahoma. About two dozen people of the Tahlequah non-profit organization that is for the LGBTQIA community attended the event and brought aContinue reading “Friendsgiving With TahlEquality”

Happy Thanksgiving!

I want to wish each and everyone of you a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving. I have no plans for today but something later this weekend. I’m probably going to watch the parade and then Planes Trains and Automobiles. If you’re not a fan of football but want to watch something else, you can alwaysContinue reading “Happy Thanksgiving!”

Sisters Aren’t Doin’ It For Themselves

The older I get the more and more I’m convinced women hate each other. Not all of them. Yet if there is any possibility of competition, they will find a way to one-up each other. But I’m going to suggest (not explain) why I think this happens. From the moment they’re born, little girls areContinue reading “Sisters Aren’t Doin’ It For Themselves”

Trump’s Election Proves There Is No God, Nor Has There Ever Been

If you believe God turned a blind eye to the massacre of young children at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. or Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, but initially saved Donald Trump from an assassination, then you have a God who doesn’t love, but hates and wants people to suffer more. And nowContinue reading “Trump’s Election Proves There Is No God, Nor Has There Ever Been”

Hank Hill Wouldn’t Support Trump I Tell You What, As That Man Ain’t Right

When King of the Hill premiered in January 1997, Bill Clinton was about to be sworn in for a second time as President of the United States. The show made some jokes about Clinton, with Hank Hill locking his truck doors, when he sees he’s entered Hope, Ark., the former President’s birthplace. However, I don’tContinue reading “Hank Hill Wouldn’t Support Trump I Tell You What, As That Man Ain’t Right”

Will This Nightmare Be Over Or Is It Just Beginning?

At this point, there’s absolutely nothing Donald Trump can say to make people deter their decisions. Just this past week, he said he wanted Liz Cheney to face a firing squad, made sexually suggestive gestures and movements on a microphone and called the workers behind the stage “stupid” repeatedly. This would be the type ofContinue reading “Will This Nightmare Be Over Or Is It Just Beginning?”

Fake It Till You Make It

I’ve never had to work in the food service industry. I have had to clean up shit that was on the floor. And it wasn’t mine. It was human excrement. The summer of 1998 I got a job bagging groceries at the Piggly Wiggly in my hometown of Calhoun, Ga. Now, this town produced someContinue reading “Fake It Till You Make It”

Misinformation Station, How Do You Ration?

Ok, the headline above does exactly rhyme but you know what? It doesn’t matter because I saw it’s so. (I mean, I’m from the South. You ought to hear what we’ve done to the English language. And yet they get mad about people speaking Spanish.) That’s basically how things have been for well over 20Continue reading “Misinformation Station, How Do You Ration?”
