I’ve often thought that very vocal racists and bigots are really the most genuine people. Why? Because they tell you everything you need to know about them. Someone like white supremacist David Duke or far-right politian Pat Buchanan are the type of people who are probably the same in public as they are around friendsContinue reading ““Woke” And “Wokeness” Are The New Buggerbears Of Prejudice And Bigotry”

‘Marlon Bundo’ Parody Book Actually Teaches Love And Acceptance
Easter has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean you can’t stop loving everyone just for who they are, not what you want them to be. Originally intended as a parody book and commissioned by Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo presents a story for people ofContinue reading “‘Marlon Bundo’ Parody Book Actually Teaches Love And Acceptance”
‘The Rapture’ Explores Religious Faith
The Rapture is one strange movie. It begins like a soft-core porn you’d use to find on Skinemax. It even has the sets and a young David Duchovny appears during his Red Shoe Diaries days. It then transitions into a faith movie before spiraling down into a psychological thriller and ending as a drama aboutContinue reading “‘The Rapture’ Explores Religious Faith”
The Idolatry Of Donald Trump
Since the indictment of Donald Trump was on the first day of the 2023 Major League Baseball season, it reminds me of a scene from the 1994 movie Little Big Leauge. A 12-year-old is left the owner of the Minnesota Twins following the death of their previous owner, his grandfather. When his manager comes toContinue reading “The Idolatry Of Donald Trump”
Nashville Shooting Shows People Want To Deflect The Real Problem
Even though it’s become a common occurrence for a school shooting to happen, it’s something we should never get used to. As of this posting, the families of the six victims are planning funerals and unsure of how things will happen. I’m thinking of Easter baskets and goodies sitting in a closet for one orContinue reading “Nashville Shooting Shows People Want To Deflect The Real Problem”
‘The Whale’ A Wonderful Study Of Grief, Guilt, Depression And Atonement
The characters who are in The Whale are all suffering from their own guilt, depression and/or grief. Aside from a flashback to a scene at a beach, the entire movie is set in an apartment in an Idaho town near an unnamed college in 2016. This helps make the audience feel they are trapped inContinue reading “‘The Whale’ A Wonderful Study Of Grief, Guilt, Depression And Atonement”
It Shouldn’t Be A Crime To Be Disabled
A 71-year-old woman, Karen McGee, with hearing problems was at the airport in Austin, Texas waiting for her connector flight. Because her hearing aids weren’t working properly, she sat facing the gate where she thought she would see when to board her flight. Little did she know there had been an announcement of a change.Continue reading “It Shouldn’t Be A Crime To Be Disabled”
Curbing Child Labor Laws To Get Around Paying Employees Better Wages
Last year, the Braums restaurant and market in nearby Tahlequah, Okla. went up in flames. It has since been renovated and reopened. I noticed about a month or so before the fire happened in late April of 2022 there were advertising for employment. They listed that people who were still in high school or underContinue reading “Curbing Child Labor Laws To Get Around Paying Employees Better Wages”
Conservatives’ Anti-LBTQIA/Drag Queen Stance Will Backfire
There’s a reason Tom the Cat never caught Jerry the Mouse. Tom needed Jerry. Taking away that it was a kid’s cartoon series, if Tom killed Jerry, then the homeowners had no other reason to keep Tom in the house. And Jerry knew that another cat wouldn’t be so humane. Even though they were seenContinue reading “Conservatives’ Anti-LBTQIA/Drag Queen Stance Will Backfire”
Murdaugh Cases Exposes Our Desire To Allow Rich People Do Whatever They Want
I was a Johnny-Come-Lately to the Alex Murdaugh trial. I followed bits and pieces of it but have followed up in the last week. It was surprising I had gone to school at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, Ga., less than 100 miles away from Hampton, S.C. that I never heard of the Murdaugh family.Continue reading “Murdaugh Cases Exposes Our Desire To Allow Rich People Do Whatever They Want”
