I’m not saying I don’t love my country and am not willingto fight for it, but if any of my international folks find a job for a seasoned microbiologist PhD with tons of experience with meningitis, protein misfolding, antibiotic resistance, or the like, I could be compelled to leave.

Alas, it was found….

Thanks to everyone involved. It was an honor and an absolute blast.

Somewhere between The Handmade’s Tale, Parable of the Sower, and The Stand is where we find 2025.

Whenever I see Vance, I wonder: Why would anybody put mascara on a toddler?

The thing about oranges is they’re one of the squishier fruits. Especially the thin-skinned ones.

The Big Orange One would be awful for America. The worst Grampa Joe would do is put a reverse mortgage on the White House.

Howdy! I hope you guys are doing well. I’ve been woefully out of touch with most everyone over the age of six.

News from the abyss: smaller child can hold a bottle of milk and concentrate her shits into diaper-obliterating concussive blasts. Larger child eats a week’s worth of groceries every day.
