I wanted to wait to write this until I knew we were almost certain to hold the Senate, which it now appears we are. My apologies if I jinx it. So, I wrote a diary predicting that we would get killed, mostly on the theory that pollsters undercounted the...

Yes, I know by now you’re all sick of seeing the picture of my poor late cat Ritchie looking out at you, but that’s all my fault. I would like to offer an unreserved and sincere apology to all readers, and especially those who were waiting for their...

It’s no secret that Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert is a mess who has consistently made headlines for her racist, xenophobic, and ill-informed commentary. While she may have a large following within the GOP and QAnon circles, though, not everyone in her...

It’s 2021. It was never okay to do blackface before—and it sure as hell isn’t okay now. Despite this, some people just never learn, do they? A Virginia city councilman is facing backlash after wearing blackface as part of his Halloween costume, but...

This is exactly what it sounds like. A few days ago I posted a diary about 65,000 people in Milwaukee celebrating the Buck’s championship. Most of them were not wearing masks. And while I still stand by that concern, that it is a very unwise idea to...

It’s been brought to my attention (via USA Today) that a certain late-night comedian/pundit who shall henceforth remain nameless, whose show I stopped watching last fall because it, and he, had become insufferable, said this in his most recent [ahem]...

I messed up big time. I want to apologize to twingrace. I didn’t mean to imply that she thought I was abusive to Reid. I screwed up. I’m sorry. I know she doesn’t think that. I totally misinterpreted what she said. I have hurt her and that is something...

Trying to write the story of the most difficult, trying year in a persons life isn’t really an easy thing to do. Writing about that year knowing that pretty much anyone that reads the story has also been through a similar, or in too many cases much...

I do not trust the puppy-love apologies and quick calls for peace coming from the right. I'm having real trouble with walk-backs from the likes of Ted Cruz or people now quietly erasing Facebook posts that initially supported the riots, as if they...

I have always been scatter brained and absent minded. Back when I was a professor I could easily pass for being absent minded. I could never remember student names, etc. As I've gotten older and since my stroke this has gotten worse. I'll make a list...

In this latest round of negativity, I bear a lot of responsibility. Culpability. First, I will defend myself. Then I will invalidate that defense. Hopefully there will be a laugh along the way. The Lead Up to Super Tuesday I had to vote early because...
