In today's science section:Octopus Valentine's Day Sex Session Scrapped Over Cannibalism FearsSo this was my first Valentine's Day as a not-married person in a loooong time. And I'll admit, while I consider Vday to be mostly an indicator that chocolate is about to go on sale I did have a moment or five of sad.… Continue reading Huffington Post: Reminding Me There’s ALWAYS Something Worse

"Duran Duran DOES NOT Sing The Song Of My People" (This post is Not Safe For Anyone*)
I seriously considered leaving this entire post blank**, because in this case the title really does say it all. Honestly, I laughed so hard at that one (which was dropped during what I thought was a totally normal conversation) I wheezed and cried a little.Also? Since I generally anonymize my friends/family on this blog unless… Continue reading "Duran Duran DOES NOT Sing The Song Of My People" (This post is Not Safe For Anyone*)
So, Googling THAT was probably stupid.
Yet another psycho's path to my blog.So, someone (hopefully human, but really I'm a little up in the air on that assumption right now) found this blog by googling "cerberus eating baby".First, what the actual fuck?Second, due to poor punctuation placement I'm unclear whether this particular weirdo was looking for a baby who eats hellhounds,… Continue reading So, Googling THAT was probably stupid.
Book Review: Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer
Amazon Prime recommended this one to me (how Amazon manages to recommend anything to me given the weird and random things I buy is really beyond my algorithmic abilities), and for once the interwebs read me correctly.Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer was completely worth the time. I loved this book enough to read it in… Continue reading Book Review: Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer
"Happy" Isn’t My Goal
There's this absolutely fantastic video going around on social media in which Jada Pinkett-Smith tells her daughter, eloquently and with the sort of power only she has, that the messaging in this country to women about being wives and mothers needs to change. Her point is that women are made to feel guilty or "less"… Continue reading "Happy" Isn’t My Goal
At Least My Weird Is Universal?
Yet another way in which I am not a normal woman popped up in the last week. Yes, I am pretty much a weirdo across all genres. Where's my girl scout* badge for THAT?? Over the holidays (a word which should be said quietly with a reverent "thank the Gods for them, thank the Gods they're… Continue reading At Least My Weird Is Universal?
Random Weird and Adolescent Humor
I have no point in this post, other than to share a thing or five I noticed today that weirded me out. First, let's talk about sperm whales. Because the tale of the Essex is now in theaters and of course the whale is the villain. My thoughts about the story of the Essex aren't about… Continue reading Random Weird and Adolescent Humor
ADVENTURE is a Double-Edged Word
I haven't blogged much lately: truth be told I've been fighting off a depression of sorts for all of November. Most days it's been hard to muster the energy to be pleasant at work, so I haven't written much at all. That's not a request for attention: I get these once or twice a year, and… Continue reading ADVENTURE is a Double-Edged Word
Errant Vegetables In The News
I love Huffington Post. No, I didn't include a link. Yes, that's on purpose. Not because it's an example of fair journalism (they aren't), nor because of the quality writing (it often isn't), nor because the site is so full of integrity* (definitely not). *this is a site that doesn't pay any of the writers.… Continue reading Errant Vegetables In The News
Updated for Clarity: This post is rated R for graphic imagery.
It has been brought to my attention that this post is an emotional response in itself. I disagree, and as such have added clarifying points at the bottom. I usually warn when it's not a funny post. This time, I'm warning for a different reason: I have an excellent imagination. Truly, this is not a post… Continue reading Updated for Clarity: This post is rated R for graphic imagery.
