Seems like it happens every time. It happened the last time I set up Wordpress. The ease of posting to my blog seems to generate an inverse relationship with my post frequency. I’ll post a ton at first, and then my posts taper down to nothing, sometimes going whole months without even so much as a dead man’s switch. It’s alright, though. Honestly, the times through the day that I feel most compelled to write are when I’m bored. That usually is at work, but it hasn’t been lately, to be honest. Lately I’ve been finding things to do that are work related if I’m bored, which I guess is a good thing. I dunno. We’ll see how long it lasts, though.
Posts for: #Rant
War on Religion
I had planned to write a different post, but honestly- This is what I really wanted to do with a post. I’m going to expose religious zealots for what they are. Rapists.
Bishop Accountability
ProPublica: Credibly Accused
Sexual Harassment Went Unchecked at Christianity Today
Houston Chronicle: Abuse of Faith
If you’re against abortion I want you to ask yourself, “am I so against abortion that I’m okay with my child being forced to birth a rape baby by her rapist?” If the answer is “yes”, you’re trash, and I hope you never make peace with or reconcile that.
Andrew Lee (rasengan) Fucking Sucks - Freenode is Dead
The Justin Bieber-wannabe weakly rapping in the above video is none other than Andrew Lee. He’s your usual privileged piece of shit who runs around spreading whatever money he has to shit on things other people love just to destroy them.
Old
Went out drinking with work friends the other night. Completely made an ass of myself and threw up in a beer glass. Well, mostly. The portions that didn’t make it into the beer glass made it on my pants, then the floor. Damn. I’m too fucking old. I used to be able to hang, but it seems like old age is finally ripping into me. That shit goes deep, too. Down to the bones, so it seems.
Dumbass
Man, I feel like I’m getting way too old. Went out drinking with friends last night, wound up drinking way too much and making an ass of myself in pretty much every way conceivable. Even threw up in an empty beer glass. Got some on my pants. Just not a great sight all around. Had to call in sick at work because there’s no way I’m making it into the office in this condition. I’m barely alright remaining vertical long enough to bang out this post. Blegh.
Fixed Hugo Template Implementation
Jesus fucking Christ. OK, so I’ve fixed my implementation of the “Even” theme. Turns out, as most problems do, it boiled down to “PEBKAC”. That’s right- Problem exists between keyboard and chair.
So, in my infinite wisdom, I had adjusted my config.toml to use language codes as most folks know them: "en-US". Right? Riiiiight?
NO. I said no.
In Hugo world, or at least this template’s build, languages are just “en” or “es” or whatever the fuck you speak.
Title, Because You Need One
I was originally going to write with some sort of purpose or intent, but I decided against it last minute. Instead, I’m going to do my usual attention-deficit trouncing of rationality. Not that what I write is meaningless, but it’s always better if I don’t try to pretend I can stay on topic for longer than five minutes. I mean, comfort-wise, when writing. Not that the result is so much better. I’m sure cohesive text is always more pleasant to peruse than the jumbled spaghetti I end up throwing into the ether.
Non-Title Title
I think I originally had a plan for this post, then jumped the shark shortly after I wrote the first sentence and subsequently hated it. It’s fine. Whatever. If I don’t get around to writing that out today I’ll bang it out eventually. God knows this thing never ends. It won’t stop, can’t stop, isn’t stopping for anything.
I’ve noticed that coming by actual good memes these days is really difficult. Your average meme-sharing platform is rife with awful opinions and sad excuses for comedy, and I’m having a hard time finding the good stuff. Reddit is a veritable wasteland of comedy with morality police shutting down even a minor whiff of laughter. 4chan looks really tired these days. Really, really tired. It’s nothing but “race war” instigation and pretty much every sort of debauchery you can imagine. Facebook was never good, and I’ll never use that pile of shit ever again. Telegram is basically just where actual 4chan nazis go to talk about how “(((they))) want to control society with vaccines” or other such similar nonsense. I guess I’m just out of touch with the meme scene. And don’t get me started on Instagram. If you suggest Instagram as a source of memes then you’re even more out of touch than I am.
