Trans People Don’t Need Your Input.
July 18, 2020
I wanted to write about how dreams only last about 3 seconds a piece, but they seem way longer, and so maybe your dreams come equipped with a set of memories causing it to seem as though the action of the dream has gone on for far longer. It’d be like if you were just … More Trans People Don’t Need Your Input.
Defund the Police.
July 14, 2020
I was recently at a Roll for Justice rally in support of Black Lives Matter. The speaker said, and I am paraphrasing, “People are mad about us protesting, rioting, burning buildings. Have any of them thought about how they would feel to be descended from people who were bought, mutilated, raped, and murdered without consequence?” … More Defund the Police.
Justice for Muscogee (Creek) Nation
July 10, 2020
Since at least 1500 BCE (more than a thousand years before Socrates and Plato would be sitting around the agora) the Muscogee had an established society throughout the Southwest of the United States. They existed as a confederacy, with towns throughout their domain given autonomy. They lived like this for over 3,000 years. In the … More Justice for Muscogee (Creek) Nation
Stop Making Kids Pledge Their Allegiance To The Flag.
July 4, 2020
At the very beginning of every single school day, students are asked to pledge their allegiance to the flag of the United States, and acknowledge the existence of a god in doing so. My informal argument for why this is problematic follows. We teach students, or at least we ought to, to take their words … More Stop Making Kids Pledge Their Allegiance To The Flag.
“A Brief History of Time” by Stephen Hawking
June 19, 2020
Juneteenth I just finished reading “A Brief History of Time” by Stephen Hawking. The amount of information this slim book contains is staggering. I’m really grateful it’s in a book, actually, since my brain struggles to retain anything books are where I keep most of my information. The book touches on many subjects that fit … More “A Brief History of Time” by Stephen Hawking

Or was it the word ‘feckless’ that was the problem?
June 3, 2018
Here’s the deal, calling a person a cunt is rude, and it definitely isn’t fair to vaginas to insult people by calling them one. For so many reasons, it is not a progressive term to use. However, there is a substantial difference between referring to a two faced, lying, hypocritical, racism and misogyny enabling piece … More Or was it the word ‘feckless’ that was the problem?
Taxes are Great You Idiots.
April 29, 2018
I’m just kidding, I would never really call you an idiot. Unless I got to know you and it turns out that you are an idiot, then I guess I might. I shouldn’t! It serves no purpose. It does happen though, I can be critical beyond necessity. What determines necessity in regards to criticism? Perhaps … More Taxes are Great You Idiots.
