The Last Remaining Declaration of War
It was mentioned in a news report in passing the other day that America no longer formally declares war. Wages it, sure, and nothing taxes wages quite like war waging. But to actually stand up and formally declare it is … Continue reading
The Futility of Contemporary Democracy
It’s 2012 now, and since the world isn’t going to end, I guess we need to elect some of these miserable human beings into office. The status quo of politics these days is beyond broken. And as much as I’d … Continue reading
“Mine!” A.K.A Craig Ferguson’s Unintentional Hot Chick Syndrome Sociological Experiment
I am a huge fan of Craig Ferguson’s show. Love everything from its “cable access basement” level of preparation to of course, Geoff Peterson. Recently, he has added a new element to a time-honored tradition in his interviews, which has … Continue reading

Doomsday Possibly the Worst Thing to Happen to the World
Bold, I know. From what I gather from theorists, it could come in any form, but it is coming. Black hole, geomagnetic reversal, aliens, solar flares, something. And by the end of it we’ll all be dead. Or enslaved, or … Continue reading
