On Doing the Impossible

[image error]

I woke up with a headache I can barely think past.

In talking to friends, I find this or other manifestations of extreme stress are pretty much universal, and I suspect beyond the crazy lockdowns and everything the people at the top are doing to kill our country, our productivity is in the crapper because none of us can think or get things done.

I also know this is shortening my life, since auto-immune is stress activated. But then a lot of illnesses are and there are doctors who will tell...

Operation Swamp Fox

[image error]

I dont know about the rest of you, but I feel like 2020 has scoured me from the inside out. I swear this year is at least a thousand years as experienced. The person who started this year was tired, a little down. My rights being caught in the maw of a very bad contract and the company not deigning to respond to my requests for reversal were part of it. The rest was the toll of 10 years of severe illness. You can fix it, and Id been fixing it for the last three or four, but the scars remain....

The Eye Of The Storm

Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to publicly tend an apology to every conspiracy theorist ever. They were right. I was wrong. They might not have been specifically right, on what was specifically going on, but they were absolutely right when it comes to “there is stuff going on we don’t even know about, and some of it is bizarrely strange sh*t.”

At this point… Well, at this point if I find out that Heinlein’s puppet masters have landed in 1965 and have been running the show ever since, I w...

Point And Make Duck Noises

I’ve been depressed — oh, I know, no one noticed, right? Like when I start doing posts about the apocalypse — and worried, and very much out of sorts.

I mean, the problem is essentially this: if they manage to fraud their way in, with the most blatant fraud, not just in the history of America, but possibly in the history of the world, what are we going to do?

Logically, there’s only one thing to do, and that’s move on to the next box, once they took the ballot box out of our reach But ...

Election of the President – by amie Gibbons

Election of the President – by amie Gibbons

Hello again, everyone. This is Amie Gibbons. Urban fantasy and paranormal romance author, cat mom, and most importantly for today’s post, political nut and lawyer!

The lawyer hat is on, so I have to say none of this is actual legal advice and is not to be taken as such. These are the political opinions (and rants because I’m pissed off!) of this humble lawyer today.

These views also most certainly do not reflect the views of my employer an...

The End Of The World

The world ends all the time. On the regular. And then a new world begins. Most people don’t notice.

But then there’s moments where what was, all the patterns of life you were used to get burned before your eyes, in real time.

And sometimes you don’t dare talk about it. Other times you talk about it, but no one listens, because the entire thing is so bizarre, you’re a little shell shocked and afraid to make any guesses as to what has shattered your reality so completely. You can’t say a...
