  • Remember kids, safety first!

     So I burn a lot of candles.  I burn them safely–usually smaller candle holders put into larger ones to make sure things are contained.  The setup is put someplace where pets cannot get to it. Also, because I have seen a candle do a one-and-a-half gainer with a twist leaping right the hell out of… Continue reading

  • They've known for almost a decade that groomers were infiltrating schools

    So, as of May 13, 2022, 135 teachers and teachers aides have been charged with sex crimes against children.  74% of those crimes involved students. This only includes charges that went public.  Like VAERS, I’m betting there’s a whole lot of under-reporting going on.  This wasn’t isolated to one state or set of states either–teachers… Continue reading

  • One way to NOT start a trip

     On last week’s trip up north, everything started great.  But then food poisoning kicked in.  Not sure where I got it or what I ate, but my goodness.  I’m not going to go into any more detail than that.  Just glad the plane is long enough that I could sprawl in the back for a… Continue reading

  • Pictures from Traverse City and Travels

      Michigan City Lighthouse from above Real coffee vs. Cuban coffee.  The coffee, we were told, were delivered to the restaurant by bicycle from the Heavenly Coffee company.  Judging from the bread and the cinnamon rolls, they were delivered via unicorn and cherubs, respectively.  Amazing breakfast. Traverse Bay Cafe Islands as seen from the Grand… Continue reading

  • Learning the comms

     Now that we’re able to fly to places and actually do things, B is teaching me how to handle the comms and is walking me through readbacks once we’re up and cruising.   With a touch screen, it’s a lot easier for me to put in new frequencies and make the switch since I’m not also… Continue reading

  • Another school district jumps the shark

     A school district in Wisconsin is suing three middle school boys for sexual harassment for not using the they/their pronouns requested by another child under Title IX.   Sexual harassment is NOT calling someone by a plural pronoun–sexual harassment is when a person has power over another and demands sexual favors or touches inappropriately. I’m pretty… Continue reading

  • The Summer of Whine

     Really I sometimes feel sorry for the indoctrinated women who get out there and show their ignorance.  They jump on every bandwagon and have no critical thinking skills.   ‘My body, my choice’ didn’t come into play when it came to masks (useless) or shots (destructive). They fall for left-wing rhetoric every time. So when Lysistrata… Continue reading

  • Point A to Point B in an hour

    Getting from the homeplace to Traverse City, Michigan takes about seven hours by car.  It can take longer during construction season (which has started) and even longer once tourist season swings into full bloom.   By plane, at 188 knots (little over 200 mph) it takes an hour. Traverse City is a nice tourist town–not as… Continue reading

     They have now successfully grown plants in soil brought back from the moon. Here’s what’s next: Continue reading

  • Academic normalization of ‘groomimg’

     Johns Hopkins University’s Moore Center for Prevention of Child Sexual Abuse just hired an assistant professor who stepped down from a position at Old Dominion University for advocating for a change in term from pedophile to ‘minor attracted person’.   Allyn Walker insists in his(?) research that it is not immoral to be sexually attracted… Continue reading
