About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a weekly basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

One Of My Newest Heros

   Zohran Mamdani is a great example of what can be done Politically, Socially, and Economically for the Working Class anywhere in the United States if you follow through with your campaign promises.
   We need to vote for good men like him all across this nation in the upcoming mid-term elections. 
   I was going use this paragraph to post counterpoints before the trolls start posting their hate rhetoric but I have learned throughout my lifetime that you cannot change a person's mind by telling them that they are wrong all the time. Even when you have irrefutable evidence to the contrary. You can't start calling them names because they will only dig in deeper into their beliefs.
   This is why all these cult mega-churches have emerged in this country over the years. Because people want to belong within a like minded group even if they have to identify with a certain ideology of hating thy neighbor and blaming immigrants for all their assumed problems.    
   In conclusion. Before I ramble on any further. We need more magnetic personalities running for public office who care about people no matter what their ethnicity is, their color, race, identifiers, or pronouns are.
   We need more people like Zohran Mamdani.

Teaser Number Two

   I need more time! Before I post a full video on what I plan on doing to appease my inner cravings to do something artistic.
   The first thing I found out when I came up with the idea is that I'm not a Thespian. I just play one in my head, out in the world, on daily basis. (Insert Smiley Face Here) But I have reviewed the footage and I need some kind of classes to receive an Oscar! Maybe a class from The Great Courses
   Here is a little taste;

Yes. I Am Still Here

   I just wanted to post something today because I missed last week and I am really busy this week too! So I don't have much to say except that I am working on two different projects right now and I am hoping I will be able to post them here real soon.
   One of my ideas has put the sparkle of creativity back into my eyes but life always tries to divert me with obligations and responsibilities.
   Yet I am determine to finish this project, post it, and see the reaction from viewers and readers to see if I should continue with this type of activity.

What Is AI Talking About

   Okay, there are a couple of things to unpack here.
   First, I do have a Pinterest account but all the photos on that website lead back to my Blog where a person can read the full story behind the idea the photo projects. So I can assure you that I have never once proclaimed to be or had "discussions around living as an amputee"!
   Second, I do not have a podcast call Wood Wehn in the Membrane. I left a review on my phone about the podcast because I enjoy listening to them on occasion but I am not associated in anyway with the podcast.
   I just wanted to clear that up in case AI has miss led any of my readers or potential readers.

Deception Island

   Just by its name I dream of writing a ghost story about the place. I'm sure there have been a few written already since there are videos on YouTube about exploring the place, a PBS documentary, and at least one podcast, The Rest Is Science, mentioning the place.
   I can assure everyone that the volcano in the center of the island is dormant and never possibly be activated by climate change. It would be the perfect vacation spot.
   But alas. As I dream also about buying the place and using one of it's buildings as a "Get Away Ghost Retreat Experience" for the summer months as the temperature rises to unbearable conditions, the property is not for sale as it is an Antarctic Heritage Trust Site.
   Besides, how many Gothic and Steam Punk friends do I have nowadays that would take the trip down there?
