1:34 a.m. 12/30/31/04 I have come upon a dichotomy within that I truly cannot explain. It’s been a slow realization, but now I must acknowledge it. I love Brits. Why is this a dichotomy? Because I hate their country. Now, that’s probably not fair of me because it was twelve and a half years ago… Continue Reading
British Fetish
3:43 a.m. 1/7/8/05 I’m in dire need of an intervention before I fall deeper into my current obsession. It shames me to say it, but I, a staunch supporter of equality and diversity and all that shit, am actually fetishizing a whole race of people. I feel like Huey Freeman felt in The Boondocks when… Continue Reading
More Things Brit
3:41 a.m. 1/14/15/05 It never ends. That’s something Alan Rickman says in Dogma, and it’s true with my never-ending thirst for all things British. Correction: All things UK. I’m surprised I didn’t become hornier watching Liam Neeson in Kinsey as he’s an Irish lad as well, but he doesn’t do much for me. Neither does… Continue Reading
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Subtitled: The Ghost of W. Ok. You know the drill by now. I am sick; I don’t feel like writing something new; I have tons of old writing to dump on you. Besides, I didn’t feel comfortable publishing these during the W. era, so I waited until now. I should be safe, right? Another reason… Continue Reading
CIA Flap
Ed. Note: I’m not exactly sure when this was written, but it’s several years ago now. In rereading it, I see that it was written sometime in late 2003/early 2004. It still pisses me off. I watch the flap being made over the ‘news’ that the CIA fucked up the reports from Iraq, and it… Continue Reading
My Country Tis of Thee, Sweet Land of Hypocrisy
Ed. Note: The editor’s note below was written before the last election. This essay is somewhat moot now, but it’s still interesting. Thus, I am publishing it now.Ed. Note: This was written a while ago, obviously, but it still holds true today. Even though Bush’s popularity rank has slipped drastically, there are still some people… Continue Reading
Kiki’s Disillusionment
Ed Note: I wrote this before the last election, obviously. Sadly, I was pretty fucking prescient. 4:23 p.m. 2/1/05 I was talking to my best friend after the Iraqi election. Full disclosure-I have stopped reading anything Bush says. Well, almost anything. I find that it upsets me too much to read it, or it sinks… Continue Reading
Drugs, Man
The thing that is supposed to cure me makes me feel worse. This is the irony of taking antibiotics. I avoid them as much as I can. I hate taking antibiotics for many reasons, but I am desperate. So, I buy the horse pills, and I swallow them. I have to take two a day,… Continue Reading
The Grand Old (BIG Emphasis on Old) Party
Wow. I would have thought that the GOP had hit rock-bottom, but that was before I listened to Gov. Bobby Jindal’s response to the State of the Union Address which it was in all except name today. I had read the rousing criticism to Jindal’s speech, but I figured it was exaggeration. Let me back… Continue Reading
Take Two and Call Me in the Morning
Amoxicillin, that is. I have drugs now, and I am reluctantly taking them–knowing that the side effects will be unpleasant. I can but hope that they will aid in my recovery. I am worn out from going to the clinic, so two old posts today. The first is a lighthearted look at my love for… Continue Reading
