DIARY

One compromise we should not brook.

One compromises, all the time…

I had such hopes for Monday. I was going to work on my NaNo novel, do the laundry, clean, restart (for the 11th time) my Bible studies, read for Euphemism.

As for conservative America… that’s my next dose of vitrol…

I notice that in many of my posts this past month, I’ve heaped more criticism on liberals than conservatives. Most of this boils down to my understanding of my audience… there are plenty of liberal and conservative blogs out there that lambast the other side, and none of them accomplish much.

CONCEPT

As soon as Blogger publishes my updates today, you may (or may not) notice some significant changes.

1. I’ve added links to two blogs, both belonging to close friends:

This blog is maintained by Gemma, and while she’s just started it, it looks like she’ll be bringing her artistic experiences to bear on both her personal experiences and the world at large.

EVENT: CONNOR

I should have guessed who would win the election.

And I don’t want to be rational right now, and I don’t want to be quiet or composed or even reasonable.

Of course, how honest can we be without costing ourselves?

Gothic Funk #1 was a moderate success.

15 people attended… somewhat less than anticipated, but most of them stayed for around five hours.

DIARY, EVENT: CONNOR

Several long posts ahead, but I’ll try to keep them interesting.

Also: keep in mind I’m not the only one posting here right now. If you see EVENT: GEMMA, WOLFBARONXYLO, SKYBALLS, or ELISABETH, then someone else is posting…

MUG SHOTS

I know I said I’d post last night, but my phone was disconnected, barringinternet access.

EVENT: skyballs

president W is clearly better than i am. here is why:

W was born into the auspices of 1946, just over a year after FDR died in office. america was very socialist-inclined, & coming out of a very successful war campaign, even though we hadnt wanted to fight.… Read the rest

DIARY

Admittedly, this wasn’t my idea… I vamped off Donkey Hottie.

This blog shall maintain these nightshades through November at least, not in outrage at President Bush, but in mourning for the American people who elected him.

Historical perspective is most poignant and convincing… I look around me and I think I see Greece post-Alexander, Rome post-Republic, and Spain post-armada.

Dear Sen. John Kerry,

I sit here in Chicago with my Michigan absentee ballot on November 03. The ballot arrived from home yesterday, Election Day. I have always had an overwhelming sense of political efficacy, despite the misgivings I have had toward the haphazardous process outlining the two national elections which I have been of age to participate in.
