Missed it, again… 5 minutes, just 5 f-ing minutes
So, I missed my 12am “write one thing every day for a whole year deadline” by 5 minutes. I really cannot accept this one as a failure on my part. Had to answer 2 very important important calls that ate of all my ‘evening writing time’. Plus I spent the whole day cleaning my old…

Move out, move in, same day: Ready, set, go!
Finally, finally, FINALLY moved to a new place; a bigger, prettier, better designed place. It’s THE place. Great location, very walkable, and NO undesirable neighbors (at least everything looks quiet and everybody minds their own business.) The nightmare is over. Peace, serenity and natural lighting will reign. I basically left 70% of my apartment in…

It’s ok to make mistakes, but also make amends
Just a reminder: There is nothing wrong with being wrong and correcting yourself, being ignorant about a subject and learning about it, being for/against and changing your position with new information and experiences. Just because you’re bad today doesn’t mean you’ll always be bad. You have to unlearn and re-learn concepts. Nobody was born knowing…

The ‘double-date’ dilemma
Can someone PLEASE tell what’s the deal with the ‘double date’? What drives a human being to think: “Hey, we’re having such a good time together. You know what would make it even better? Throwing one of our friends and their partner into the mix. Doesn’t it sound like a great idea, babe?!” And of…

A covert truth (pt. 1)
– I’m telling, the guy is a fucking moron! How can you actually listen to what he says every time he grabs the mike! “Hey, look, but—” — But NOTHING, I cannot believe he’s the chief executive. Hate this country so much! “Man, calm down (puts his hand on his friend’s shoulder and speaks softly).…

Day 31, DONE!
Officially made it to post Number 31. It’s been a long ass month. Still here, still fighting the good fight and still taking hits. To be honest, it’s not really hard finding things to write about (especially POV blog-style). What takes a toll on you are those very stressful days that drain every ounce of…

NASA hires theologians to prepare humanity for alien contact, AYYLMAO!
A pandemic that came from having sex with pangolins and eating mutated bats, worldwide economic crises caused by disproportionate wealth and disaster capitalism, the meta verse launch, NFTs valued at millions of dollars… What a time to be alive! And 2022 looks even more fucked up than the past two years. “He who is afraid…

The self imposed hubris of a young wannabe-writer
Reminisced (wow, that’s a word I never use) today after seeing a comic meme that was aimed at my past self. It went something like: Person 1 standing in the frame of a room door: “You think you’re so smart because you read so many articles online. Look at how you look right now.” Person 2…
