If you’re chatting with someone who is talking about their health issues, and your addition to the conversation is to say, “That’s why I’m vegan.” Then you should be aware that you’re also a huge douche.

One of them yells “Romney!” as they drive off after vandalizing the Obama signs. Then as they approach him the second time and attack him, one of them yells, “Coon!” You can hear them say “beaner” and a few other racially-charged things. And people keep saying it’s not about race… This is the full, uncut […]

A woman just asked me where my wife was, and I informed her that I wasn’t married. I asked her why she thought I was married and she said I “look like a great dad.” She made and ruined my day all at once.

The article was originally written at the tail end of the 2012 presidential race, and I have kept it up to date every few months over the past eight years.

I just witnessed something pretty awful. You may or may not want to read this. I was at a playground at a peaceful park full of young children. A woman walked up with a little boy, and she had a sweet older dog on a leash with her. At one point they were surrounded by […]

Andy Warhol once famously said that in the future everyone will get 15 minutes of fame. Well, we’ve moved well beyond that to the point where most people get 15 seconds. I had my first 15 seconds of fame several years ago. And today I experienced fifteen more seconds, though only on the local news […]

Do you consider yourself an agnostic, freethinker, or atheist? If so, please let me know. And if don’t want to out yourself to your friends and family, then feel free to send me a private message.

Don’t ever lie to a law enforcement officer, but don’t fool yourself into thinking that being completely honest with them will get them on your side. Remember, if they believe you’re breaking the law then in their mind you’re not on your side. And they’re not going to jeopardize their job just because you’re being […]

Had I the heaven’s embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths Of night and light and the half-light, I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because […]

This is mind-numbingly geeky (and I probably shouldn’t share it publicly), but I really think growing up as a musician and a video gamer is why I enjoy switching between PCs and Macs all day. Specifically, because I use keyboard shortcuts the whole time I’m working, and the differences between PCs and Macs are subtle-but-distinct. […]

Every time I go through airport security, every time I hear about someone who appears middle eastern being persecuted, and every time people defend our actions in Iraq, I can’t help but think that the terrorists won. They made us fear an invisible enemy, made us afraid of our own people, and drove a wedge […]

This county judge wants to raise taxes so we will be prepared for an invasion by the United Nations led by Obama. No, I’m serious.

When they start going through Christian churches, will you be outraged then? http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/08/05/1116981/-Sikh-temple-shootings-thoughts-and-prayers-aren-t-enough-any-more

It’s your choice whether you want to join in the discussion or let us do the thinking for you.

Funny stuff.

So, you disagree/agree with all of the bitching about Chick-fil-A? Oh, what’s that? You don’t actually care? You just want to bitch at everyone who’s bitching? Well, be careful what you start. Because that makes me want to bitch at those that bitch at everyone who’s bitching. And that’ll make someone else want to bitch […]

Look up the word militia sometime… http://www.twitlonger.com/show/if2nht

I honestly don’t believe that (the vast majority of) Obama’s critics are racist, but for many people the word “socialist” has replaced the word “nigger.” It’s definitely not about race, but it’s definitely the worst pejorative they can use publicly. And ultimately it means the same thing: I hate you for what you are.

Are you serious, Congress?! Over thirty miserable failures at destroying healthcare for millions and you STILL aren’t trying to create jobs? You should be ashamed. More importantly, the people that voted for you should be. Stop wasting our time and do something worthwhile before it’s too late.

I have to be honest, it’s nice to know that millions of Americans are finally experiencing what I felt for eight years under Dubya.

The music is José González’s version of “Teardrop” by Massive Attack. The video is nature’s version of a massive storm attacking the field in front of me. It’s mostly dark, but there are moments of brilliant lightning. This was filmed on an iPad, so it’s not as high quality as it should be. But hopefully, […]

Late last night, I was taking the elevator back up to my room, and in walked a few people along with Wil Wheaton and Felicia Day.
