This Week in Trans...

 "I am not responsible for anything I've said that you don't like: I'm identifying as trans today, and this puts me beyond any and all criticism..." -- The Overlord

Living Inside Your Own Skull...

 "If you're going through Hell, keep going..." -- Winston Churchill

The Overlord Returns

 "Most of American life  consists of driving somewhere and then returning home, wondering why the hell you went." --- John Updike

The Perils of Equality and Some Other Stuff...

 "The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal..." -- Aristotle

 "A fool says nothing worth hearing and takes offense at everything..." -- Aristotle

Hollow Be Thy Name, Part One

"Society will develop a new kind of servitude which covers the surface of society with a network of complicated rules, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate. It does not tyrannize but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is shepherd..." -- Alexis de Tocqueville

A Mental Health Absence...

 "These are the times that try men's souls..." -- Thomas Paine, "The American Crisis"

Match(less) Game...

 Author's Note: Apologies for not having posted much recently. There are a variety of reasons for such, prime among them having run afoul of Google's newest (and most-pernicious) algos that have been flagging posts retroactively as "in violation of community standards", a situation in which a) no one, even Google, can specify exactly what standard we're talking about, and b) why something that wasn't a violation five years ago suddenly became one now. In addition, work has been a bear -- I'm now working night shifts -- and massively chaotic. Post about that to follow. In the meantime, check this out.

P.S. I'm definitely going to stop doing this sometime soon, and switch back to podcasting, which I rather enjoyed. Stay tuned.

A Song of Ire and Vice...

 "I have learned a very important lesson about life below the Mason-Dixon, and relate it here for the benefit of the other Yankees who intend to move here: if you ever need anything simple, yet important, to be done, remember that these people have two main modes of operation -- Ass Backwards and Slower Than Joe Biden. No wonder they lost the War..." -- The Overlord

Trump, Snakes and Pizza...

 "Show me the man and I will find you the crime..." -- Levrentiy Beria

Manage This! and More Pissed-Off Yankee...

 "Modern 'Management' is the art or skill of conniving to extract a very large salary while either avoiding work, or by doing work that no one in his right mind would want nor needs done..." -- The Overlord.

Dixie Daze...

 "Let me embrace thee, sour adversity, for wise men say it is the wisest course..." -- William Shakespeare

Dear General Sherman: You Missed a Spot...

 "Sir Walter should be spinning in his grave..." -- The Overlord

Farewell to Babylon...

 "No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man..." -- Heraclitus
