Hello You. Thank you for sticking around and staying with this blogject for as long as you have. I want to apologize that I’ve been unable to continue writing on any set schedule over the last year. The last year of my life has been incredibly difficult and has made the creative work of this…

There are many who will write reams of words of outrage and faux shock and pearl clutching and CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY DID <insert distraction issue> over the next weeks, months, and years. And while today is a dark and depressing day for many, there is one group of people absolutely ecstatic that their dreams…

Dear Overly-Patient Readers, Fans, Friends, Colleagues, Internet Strangers, NSA Watchers, MAGA/FOTF Spies, and whatever other folk I’ve forgotten to include…. I have had so many thoughts swirling for so long and not really known how to process or triage them in any way that’s been productive for the last month or so. The election of…

Read it while it’s up. It will be coming down soon. Evangelicals are Fucking Awesome.

I had resigned myself to being childless after I was deemed “Disabled”. Had resigned myself that I would never get married. I’m just going to live in shitty poverty for the rest of my life because I’ll never be able to “provide” for a family. And now my worst fears are happening. A baby is…

Dear Friends & Fans & Readers & Passersbywhostumbledinhere… I am struggling to write. And I’m realizing I’m a bit down. A conversation last week kinda made me feel as though there was no point to doing any of this. And that I’m just spinning my wheels. And that I’ve written too much for people to…

You’re an asshole, god. I am sitting in my 4th Psychiatric Hospital. Fourthce™ Remember the place I swore I would never end up in again? I haven’t had any suicide attempts since 1994… WTF AM I DOING BACK IN A PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL IN FEBRUARY 2001… ?™ I DON’T BELONG HERE How the fuck did I…

**** Note to Readers/Self: This Volume feels like the most challenging to write so far. If Volume 2 was stretching an entire year of my life across 12 chapters, Volume 3 I’m only giving each year a single post. And one of the downsides to this is it feels like I’m barely able to dive…
