Reconfiguration
I haven’t posted here for a while. I tried once, and I just couldn’t. So instead, I’ll just post a bit of an update on how I’m doing, for those who might care, and we’ll just go from there. I’ve had some tooth problems for quite a while, since before COVID. Truth is, I hate…

Why Science Fiction Sucks
I have written previously about why I like science fiction. Now let me tell you why it sucks. And how that relates to our current political situation. I’ve always been a fan of science fiction.

To Fix the World
This is going to be one of those posts that I’m going to look back on, and think “that was a pretty good post”. And then I’m going to regret it utterly. Today, I had a bad experience at work. My team has just been merged with another team, and both of our different teams…

Otaku Introspection
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, lately. Big news, right? I mean, I never do that! Usually I just careen… ah well. Sarcasm is lost in this medium. Anyway, I’ve been thinking. I sure do care far too much about how I’m perceived in some ways, don’t I? And mostly, even how I’m perceived…
