A couple of days ago, I blogged about Kyle Payne and male feminists. One of my main points was that, by poking around and reading some of Payne's writing, I felt that it was not surprising that someone who wrote that way would turn out to be an abusive individual. When someone becomes an ally of a...
We're on the verge of an economic Depression, according to yesterday's news. Soaring oil prices are just the first step in our march to the collapse of the infrastructure, the grid, and our flickering way of life, according to today's news. We're sicker and nastier than ever, according to all of the...
Having taken in one of my son's friends, my eyes have been opened to what life is like on the streets for teens (and for some who aren't on the streets). Keep in mind that I'm talking about teens anywhere from 14 to 18. Some of these kids live at the teen shelter because their parents kicked them...
Daughter 1 awoke to a message from friend informing her that a mutual male friend, who is stationed with the army in the Northern Territory had been the innocent victim of senseless violence that has cost him his right eye and left him with 100 stiches in his face. A lovely man from New Zealand...
On Judgement Day our attempts to be religious will testify against us. They'll seek to gobble us up; so we need to defang them in this lifetime. A holy book may tell believers to compel unbelievers to believe, and to kill them if they refuse to believe. Notwithstanding the the fact that you can't...

People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession to their character. - Ralph Waldo Emerson, American philosopher and poet (1803-1882) Think about it. That person who is so negative about the world, isn't he also a pessimist about his own future and his place in the world?...
When an election is allowed to occur like the one in Zimbabwe this week, the world leaders must see this as a direct threat to the democratic and freedom based societies that have been created around the world. We, the international community must act to nullify this election and run a free one,...
I apologize for neglecting this blog. Our friend, mentioned in the last couple of posts, died early Friday morning and I've been spending a lot of time with her family, especially her 14-year-old granddaughter. I find that times like these are interesting -- on one hand, you have an incredibly sad...
Geez after everything I ve been through you would think i would have more than one problem I have realized that all my other problems have to be dealt through my lawyer so I have no need to worry. I had been with my husband since I was 17 years old, less the three years we had broken up and got back...
Well I finally found a lawyer and OMG is he cute. I'd rather pay that kind of money to nice looking man than a slimly looking one. Well i just learned that I got screwed by his lawyer. WHEN SPEAKING TO ANOTHER LAWYER PLEASE PLEASE HAVE DUTY COUNSEL OR A LAWYER WITH YOU. I know this from experience....
I was out with the family today and we decided to stop for lunch at a fast food restaurant. While we where there, there was an elderly couple that was pretty chatty with us. At one point the couple decides to go so the man gets up and starts helping the woman up. She starts to get up from her seat...
While in class tonight, we were talking about violence against women, and one of my classmates brought up the fact that since the economy has taken a downturn, they’ve been noticing crime increasing. I have too. Lately you can’t turn on the news without hearing about who’s robbing who, who...

I went and got custody of my son the Friday after this happened, since there is a no contact order I needed to make sure that he was protected. I went to the court house filled in the paperwork, all without his notice so I had to serve it on him myself. ARE YOU KIDDING ME I did not want to go near...
I left my husband in May. I finally found the courage in my heart to call the police and honestly I did not do it for me, I could handle the fights. It was the screech of my 11 year old as he watched his daddy push his Mommy to the floor once again. I think that made me realize that I had to stop...
I've made a couple of posts about religion before, and if you read them you'll know that I really don't have much faith (ha!) in people who insist that following their imaginary friend is the only true way to live, or in fact that their imaginary friend actually exists in the first place. Most of...
