Musings on the West Memphis 3

May they find true peace.

I’ve watched these guys and kept an eye on their site, regularly, since the first Paradise Lost (See all Crime & Conspiracy Documentaries), though I had heard of their case previously through the occult grapevine. I have taken an Ambien so no doubt I’ll say all sorts of inappropriate shit, but I guess that’s entertainment. Continue reading →

The Otherkin Problem

You know, I actually enjoyed the Twilight movies. But I have never felt like I might be a sparkly vampire. Whew!

For the first time in at least a year and probably more like 2, I’m Processing something heavy. I’ve attempted to ignore it and brush it under the rug, and previously when these feelings emerged I was able to do that. This time, not so much. Worse, it’s become apparent to me that there are Continue reading →

In Which I Rant

The New York Times today reports (among content about the new health care bill and the release of the names of those killed at Fort Hood) that “There are just over 100 people in the world serving sentences of life without parole for crimes they committed as juveniles in which no one was killed; 77 Continue reading →

Congressman John Fleming has proposed an amendment that would require Congressmen and Senators to Continue reading →

Because I Feel It

I know I said no more politics, but Obama to me is more than a President(-elect). He’s a force of inspiration and hope. So I made this – Banner by Sheta, photo by unknown. Now with thumbnail. CLICK FOR LARGER. Same icon as last post – because he is a call to become more.

I Try to Keep an Open Mind

…but sometimes I just get pissed off. The link leads to a Christian woman’s blog who has a post on how “the ban on gay marriage slows the erosion of family.” What. the. bleeding. fuck. I continue to be amazed at how anyone anywhere can believe that what another person does affects the “sanctity” of Continue reading →

Barack Obama is the Man

For the first time in eight years, I have hope for this country and I don’t feel fear. It is a heady feeling.

Cumming, GA Civil Rights March 1987

I haven’t slept much in the past few days. I wake up within a few hours of going to bed and am unable to go back to sleep. It hasn’t been so bad – I’ve been getting around six hours sleep a day – until this morning. This morning, I slept two and a half hours, woke up scratching my ankles from the new outbreak of fleas in my carpet (I’ve put down borax), and immediately starting worrying about my bank account. What kind of day is it when a $300 overdraft seems like a relief after you’ve spent time mentally adding things up and concluded it’ll probably go as high as $450? heh. (Turns out some of the stuff I thought was still pending has already posted. Thank
