Shameless Self-Promotion: My First Book!
Do you see that? Do you know what that is? Okay, yeah, you're probably rolling your eyes and going damnit, why this? No! But...this isn't your regular hokey fundraiser. Stuff is cheap. There's a reason I chose Indiegogo versus just purchasing an ecommerce package (which I will cover later). Legit y'all...the ebook is $3 and a single … Continue reading Shameless Self-Promotion: My First Book!
Dear Millennial and Gen-Z Straight, White, Cis Men
Things have been quiet 'round these parts lately. There are several reasons for it, but they boil down to that I am too fed up and exhausted to yammer on here when I am working on my own projects and day job full time. Things are just too much, much too much right now. We … Continue reading Dear Millennial and Gen-Z Straight, White, Cis Men
Quora Question: How many more careers would you try if humans lived longer or were immortal?
Quora is an interesting platform that I can't help but get sucked into. It's the same concept as ye olde Yahoo Asks, but the company strives for better-written and cultivates stronger, more original content from qualified individuals. In April this year, I was invited into their Top Writers program, and then I recently received an … Continue reading Quora Question: How many more careers would you try if humans lived longer or were immortal?

There's just enough magic for the escapism, adventure and sleuthing for the brain workouts, and the ice-cold reality of what power and a deep tradition of toxic masculinity and bigotry … Continue reading Book Review – Burying the Honeysuckle Girls
Vocal Analysis Report: Michael Jackson Was An Objectively Superior Vocalist, Didn’t Sing on the Cascio Tracks
My weekday alarms start going off around 5:30. I'm a morning person and usually love it, eager to be up before them and turn them off one by one as the morning progresses, like a static to-do list that never expires. Yet I'm diurnal; it's less about the literal hour and more about the rise … Continue reading Vocal Analysis Report: Michael Jackson Was An Objectively Superior Vocalist, Didn’t Sing on the Cascio Tracks
It’s Inevitable, Ain’t It?
Well. The past couple weeks have been quite adventurous, to put it in some kind of way. While it was a conscious decision to begin sharing my experience with the Serova v Sony suit here and kind of "out" myself as one of those Michael Jackson superfans; I didn't expect so much to happen so quickly, … Continue reading It’s Inevitable, Ain’t It?
