I think I may have to vote
I wasn't upset when they told me that I couldn't vote anymore. I didn't want to go through the red tape to reinstate my voting privilege. I figured there's no way to ever vote for the right person, and I don't trust the voting system anyway. I've had my opinions about my country, the structure, principles, constitution, legislation, and history. I've been watching things change since the Reagan administration. I could recap all the follies of every Presidency I've endured since 1971. But I won't waste your time with my skewed historical summary. Instead, I will just say that of the three "taboos" (sex, religion, and politics) Americans seem quite satisfied taking on religion and politics, but they are still the most hush hush and hypocritical when it comes to sex.

Did Donald Trump Create The Apex Of Post-Shame Culture?
New York State: "Never back down": The rich and the powerful are exploiting a post-shame society, and it's popularity is growing. Where once the powerful stepped down, now they hang on for dear life until the elephant in the room dissapears.

Everyone Should Vote Democrat in November
I’m not a Democrat, or at least not a natural one. I consider myself a small-government liberal. We’re so used to hearing “small-government conservative” that hearing something different might ring like an oxymoron to some people, but to my mind, liberalism — which is fundamentally about individual freedoms — organically aligns with a small-government approach. If we could ever have a viable libertarian party, I would probably only ever vote for them, but as it stands, I identify as independent and have voted for Democrats most of my adult life.

47 and Fifth. First Place in The Moment That Changed Everything Challenge. Top Story - June 2024. Content Warning.
Sun-spun choppers bungee over Fifth Avenue. The vultures are gathering for a primetime carcass. The rungs are hot as I climb the ladder on the side of news van. I plant my feet on its roof and shoulder my Sony PXW. I struggle to find focus amidst the clouds of smoke and flares.

The Gift that keeps on giving.
I’m usually not the one to share political views with the community, let alone with the world. But after recently reading an article with very little relevancy, I thought to myself… Why not? I believe the majority of readers will enjoy participating in this thoughtful process.

The Story of the "Felon" and the "Crook"
When it comes to the realm of political fundraising, issues can sometimes bring about as many opportunity as they do obstacles. Imagine for a moment that two political figures are each branded with shameful titles by their opponents.
