2020 Has Been Rough – How I Gave Up God Pt. 1
2020’s been rough on a lot of people. I’m no exception. I had to survive psychological abuse, health problems, peri-menopause, taking care of a relative with late-stage dementia, and a crisis of faith, among other things. The crisis of faith is what I want to talk about here. In 2020,…
Scared As Hell, And Google Be Damned
I’ve got to admit, I’m pretty terrified at the moment. Things have changed so much for me that I am at a complete loss for what to do. If you read my recent Patreon post, then you have a little bit of an idea what’s going on. Basically, I lost…
The Future of My Blog, My Writing, and Everything Else

Holy Photo Monday! (New Products!)
Wow, today was a big day! Normally we do photos on Fridays, but something came up and we had to wait until today. Well, we got a whole bunch of things photographed. This is great because it means that all of those items are one step closer to going up…
The Black Shroud That Surrounds Us All
Anyone who has been following me over the past few years knows quite well that my life has been a roller coaster. It’s one I’ve frequently wanted to disembark, and yet the ride keeps going whether I like it or not. I have times when I can get it to…
Always Be Yourself, But Only If People Will Like It
In a recent post I mentioned the insanity of the contradictory information that’s out there about what you are and aren’t supposed to do, in regards to just about everything. I was just about to quit writing for the night when one idea about that came back to me. (My…

A Blessed and Happy Yule To All, and Our Plans for the Night
So, today is Yule. It’s the longest night of the year, and a new moon. I’ve been trying to relax this weekend, and we have plans for tonight. Unlike Christmas, which has become so materialistic, we keep Yule as a spiritual day. No gifts are exchanged between us. Instead, we…
The Collective Consciousness And Everything In My Head

Suicide Isn’t Painless, Please Ask For Help
I have a few hundred ideas on my list that need to be written, but Robin Williams’ suicide is taking over the media, and it’s affecting so many people in so many ways. It got me to thinking about how many people are hurting in the world today, how many…
