Moloch in the ICU
Thanks to those who have politicized vaccines and masks, maybe Moloch worship is not gone from our world.
“Why is there a Moloch-worshipper in the ICU?”
That may sound sinister and odd, but then again, I’ve been described as a “crack-smoking, demon-possessed, leftist,” so maybe it’s just my kind of question. But I’m in good company, for to be similarly described you need only have faith in masks, vaccines, and science. So -
Blog post“Cream cheese & butter, please.” I asked hopefully, when to my horror they said, “outta cream cheese, it’ll have to be Cheese Whiz, buddy.”
Then they asked “… with batter?”
“No, BUTTER,” I clarified — and that’s the story of the ghee whiz bagel.

Blog postThe Bounty On the Virtue of Greed & Envy “As his eyes opened, lying in his bed not too long ago, Stef knew he was surrounded by traitors, and that all was well with the world.”
Update: The longer version of this story is now available as part of my debut story collection, “Round Earth Delusions: and other happy afflictions” currently available on Amazon.
Greed and Envy, on one summer day,
Sauntered abroad, in quest of the abode,

Blog postTrump, Beirut, and Hiroshima Today is August 6th, 2020. Two days ago, Beirut experienced a horrific explosion. At the time, some people thought it was a nuclear blast because of the shape of the cloud of dust debris and vapor that formed. It was thankfully not a nuclear blast, but its size and devastation was still shocking and a devastating blow to a country suffering through enough hardships already. But this memorable day not only brought out some of the best in people, but sadly,

Blog postA Silent Wind The Nourishing Power of Grand Maternal Music I was told that scientists believe our dietary requirements can be enhanced by music. I could not believe it at first, but I now know it to be unbelievable yet true. I know, this seems to make no sense, and I was very skeptical when I first heard it. I mean, seriously, how could listening to music be a substitute for material sustenance? How could the hearing of sounds, mere vibrations of ear drums, feed our cells? It seemed pre

Blog postThe Unfit Bit A fake wearable, fit for a real president To Whom it May Concern,
Are you worried your commander-in-chief might be losing it?
Does he embarrass you in public?
Or commit the occasional bit of light treason in secret?
Have you caught him losing focus and slurring his words during a critical speech? getting dangerously manic and self-incriminating with the press nearby? or a little too grabby near … well … you know.

Blog postHistories, Quacks, and Thieves The Quacks in Trump’s Armory
I guess it’s nothing new for Papa to be doing whatever he could, preaching some gospel, and even selling a few bottles of Dr. Good.
I find myself thinking about the chorus lines from Cher’s “Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves.” Especially as I see reports of preachers, associated with President Trump, seeking to profit from the pandemic.

Blog postBellerophon and the Hound of Dax An Epic of an Emotional Support Animal I recently read some articles positing a controversy surrounding emotional support animals on flights. One mentioned some examples of unusual support animals, while a New York Times piece described how states were “cracking down” on people taking them “everywhere.” And so I had them on my mind as I boarded my flight the other day, and saw a sequence of events that left me wondering if, between those who favored and thos<

Blog postArt & Mite Common Household Items Can Doom Nascent Civilizations The dust mites were tired of their seemingly aimless existence, and so they decided to do something about it. They formed an art collective, and a literary circle to express, explore, and share their creative impulses. This led to a dust mite renaissance, and the increased creativity and contemplation among the mites, coupled with their new found hunger for the written word, led to their rapid progress on the scientific fro

Blog postThe Beatles Reunion Headlines in the Moment John, Paul, George, and Ringo had one final reunion before the breakup. And it was at a car show.Paul and John were not particularly into the whole gear-head scene, but Ringo was very enthusiastic about cars, and as it turns out, George was surprisingly knowledgable in the matter as well. Ringo had donated his one-of-a-kind original hatch-back mini (the factory made a special version of the car with an opening rear hatch for his drum-kit, and u
