Modern historians and Scandanavian peoples have taken great pains to rewrite history, insisting (with much indignation) that Vikings did not in fact wear horns on their helmets. The pictorial evidence as it has come down to us supports the opposite conclusion. I hope to put to rest this...

Not long ago I started making a list of the types of generators I have developed. The largest group is the "Alien/AU/Non-English words" batch. Related to that is the "Altered word" category. Other categories include: "Warrior Cat stuff" "Bureaucratic satire" "Academic or Medical parody" a few...

I keep trying to write about the phrase "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade", but the result always makes me want to punch myself in the throat - like I deserve a good throat-punch for writing something so cheery. So let me put it like this: I was once taught that losing is a personal...

Grup Yorum, a folk rock band in Turkey is continually having its members jailed by the dictatorial government. There are about 11 members in jail currently. But as members are arrested very brave new musicians join and keep it going.

This very brief entry was originally posted on my tumblr page. There is no question that makes me more uncomfortable, that makes my mind and heart freeze more, than the question, “What Do You Do?” I dread it in every conversation that I have, with people I haven’t seen in a few years, with...

I watched the following video recently and wanted to add some comments from my own experience. When I was a child I sometimes went to the grocery store with my grandmother. She wanted to be nice and asked me: "Would you like me to buy anything for you? What would you like?" I never chose...

I like my routines and when everything works as I had planned or expected. However, it doesn't always work obviously. I have three main strategies to cope with this: 1. Making backup plans I go to work by bus and train. They are rather reliable in general, but of course there can be problems...

The relationship with my dad was based in the exchange of knowledge, mostly him helping me out with school subjects, or him recommending me books. It was never an equal exchange. He mostly downloaded information on me (aspie style) and I received it. I used to receive it gladly because I...

As a kid, i'd always take pride in the fact that my memory was better than most peoples. I thought i was super smart because i was hyper-verbal, and could recall exactly what i needed to know at the right moment. I also had the innate talent to read people, even if i didn't put too much...

Generator Land: demon chum This sort of thing just annoys me. That doesn't mean it's bad.....The texture of it bothers me though.. The tedious thickness. My description of what bothers me about it may make no particular sense (because I don't see many, if any, people talking about the texture...

Today, May 10th, is Mother’s Day in México, there’s no school, and it’s a national holiday for many, except for restaurants. The ex didn’t take the kids to buy me a present and I resent him for that. He didn’t do it for my birthday either… after 18 years of me always doing something for him to...

This is probably going to be a little long as I introduce you all to myself. I graduated high school in June of 2013. I wasn't quite sure what to do with myself at that point. I'd applied to two colleges in New York, Syracuse and Cornell. Syracuse accepted me, but turned out to be too expensive...
