The will to survive driven by convention. The lack of intellect culled by fear. The rearing of nation states reached its nadir. Welcome to your Dollar Dictatorship. Ok. I've been having some correspondence problems of late. A dear old friend of mine--who is an advocate of the lie that is capitalism--and I have a general … Continue reading For Believers And Conventionalists: May Capitalist Ideology Choke Grandmas, Puppies And Butter Your Nuts

Hey Comrade! My School Of Greed Is Gonna Kick Your School Of Greed’s A$$
In order to cope with the two Ms (monotony & mendacity) of growing up in Suburban Hell of my beloved #Americant, I participated--at the duress of my broken family--in two organised sport activities. One of those activities was tennis. And, if I recall correctly, I was actually ranked within the top-100 players of my state … Continue reading Hey Comrade! My School Of Greed Is Gonna Kick Your School Of Greed’s A$$
Summary Of What Is Wrong With (Your) Everything. Hint: #ConsumeToSurvive
From a book I'll be pseudo-reviewing soon enough. And too think I'm actually a capitalist... Well, maybe not. No. Wait. I am. Rant on. -T
Time To Celebrate Europe With French Vote? Not. Time For Some Lily Livered Lefties.
What has #eurowasteland done for you lately, dear worst-reader? Well, the answer is simple. Nothing. Or. Put another way. At least it hasn't given us another fcuking world war. It behooves me to say something about recent farcical election in France--that so many are comparing to the recent farcical election of my beloved #americant but because … Continue reading Time To Celebrate Europe With French Vote? Not. Time For Some Lily Livered Lefties.
Who Has Sold You
Schadenfreude is not my thing. Nor do I wish any one ill-will. Live and let others live better--that's my motto. But there are times, moments, where I giggle and smirk at the goings and cummings of my beloved #americant and of those still trapped in all (her) confused greed-dollar-tendrils. On the other hand, of course, I … Continue reading Who Has Sold You

US White Males And A Flat Earth Worth Jumping Off
Got caught in a rut the other night while trying to find my new girlfriend who is named Sleep. A heroic bitch she is and I don't know if my love for her is worth the effort. For as we all know love is an effort. For example, how many kisses have you wasted on … Continue reading US White Males And A Flat Earth Worth Jumping Off
Just Say No And Then Rename It To Make Billions
Anyone remember it? Nancy Reagan perched on her pedestal, a pedestal desired by so many (mothers) of ill-nations, telling her underlings: just say no. When thinking back to those days I can't help but wonder what was going on in the backrooms of pharmaceutical companies. I mean, they must have been laughing at Nancy Reagan and … Continue reading Just Say No And Then Rename It To Make Billions
Three Highlights And A Note
There was a time when I was angry with Amazon/Kindle for disallowing the random copying/pasting of highlights from its ebooks. I also don't use the connection to Twitter or FB which is/was the alternative Amazon offered its customers when/as they/we expressed what they/we were willing to pay for. At the time, I think I had … Continue reading Three Highlights And A Note
Capitalism vs Politics
Warning: this post is kinda NSFW on account I lose my shit at the end. Or maybe not. Oh well. ¶One of the things I tried to say in my play The Good Criminal is that business ain't as evil as it obviously appears to be. That was back in 2001 and while producing that play I … Continue reading Capitalism vs Politics
The Few Who Would Not Play The Game
"Then these are the basic rules of a government in a free society: to provide a means whereby we can modify the rules, mediate differences among us on the meaning of the rules, and to enforce compliance with the rules on the part of those few who would otherwise not play the game." -Milton Friedman, … Continue reading The Few Who Would Not Play The Game
