I am pretty far left on most social issues. This is the one exception. I'm not far to the right, but I am definitely more-right than many of my friends (and family). And everyone I talk to about this will hear me remind them that I think cars are a more dangerous problem which I… Continue reading Politicis: Gun Control

Politics: A Christian Liberal
Let's begin with defining "Christian" (note the capital "C" here). This is anyone who professes true faith in Jesus as Christ and Savior - affiliated with a church or not. You then have "christians" who attend a church and may or may not be Christians. There are a lot of Christians outside the church sphere… Continue reading Politics: A Christian Liberal
Politicis: Open Letter to Senators
I wrote to both of my senators early in July after the SCOTUS (Supreme Court Of The United States) ruling on Michigan v. EPA. Sadly, albeit not surprisingly, I got no response. So I am turning it into an open letter on the internet and I would encourage everyone to seriously consider reaching out to your representatives.… Continue reading Politicis: Open Letter to Senators
Politics: SCOTUS on Lethal Injection
I was about sixteen when I read the book Dead Man Walking (I never watched the movie). It made me ask some tough questions on our legal justice system. When you are a child, you believe adults are good or they are bad. Part of growing up is beginning to see in all those shades of color… Continue reading Politics: SCOTUS on Lethal Injection
Politics: SCOTUS on Breathing
Back in March, I posted about asthma, what the attack felt like in my experience. Now, in the rising Georgia summer heat comes the smog. The constant low-level death air. I've been tracking my breathing for about a month and noticed something was going "wrong" - my numbers were getting bad. Then I heard on… Continue reading Politics: SCOTUS on Breathing
Manners: Rules of Driving
If you haven't read my post on Death Machines, it will help you understand better why driving is a topic I do tend to ramble and rant over. I drive largely in Sandy Springs in North Atlanta, which is a very densely populated area of town. Anyone who has gotten off 285 and gone North on Roswell Rd… Continue reading Manners: Rules of Driving
Theory: Facebook insecurity “real” relationships
This post is directly prompted by this article on narcissism, insecurity, and Facebook (hereafter FB). It got me to thinking about several different things. What I post on FB, why I post it on FB, and what I look for in others' posts on FB. I disagree with this article some, but I think that is also… Continue reading Theory: Facebook insecurity “real” relationships
Politics: Minimum Wage is a Living Wage
Last week thousands of fast food workers protested for a raise in minimum wage. "Fight for 15" has now been going on for a few years, and I've been listening to the arguments. Unfortunately. the people who most need to understand what I want to say are the ones least likely to listen to me. A… Continue reading Politics: Minimum Wage is a Living Wage
Feminism: The Goethe Spectrum
This morning on the elevator there was a man who was giving me the total hibbie-jibbies. I can't tell you why, there was something that made me want to cringe away from him. My stance shifted so I could keep him in the corner of my eye without facing him. He was dressed nice, rolled a briefcase… Continue reading Feminism: The Goethe Spectrum
Manners: The Console Question
Ask a gamer why they like the console system of their choice. Most will tell you they picked it because of the hardware inside the case. It has better graphics, more memory, has mod capabilities other models don't, plays the right apps and games to stay fun and interesting.... the list can go on and… Continue reading Manners: The Console Question
