Collapse of Society, Wonderful!
King David’s thoughts on the impending collapse of society.
He was a Monster
"And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."
---Revelation 18:2
2020: Onward to Salvation
Here’s my New Year’s Resolutions for 2020. I think many of my readers will be able to relate.
Devil May Care: All Together
This is my story of moving to Los Angeles. [3300 words]
“We passed Joshua Tree National Park where I would head with a former partner 2 years later. The Salton Sea was about an hour southeast of Joshua Tree. I’d make a trip to the Salton Sea and Salvation Mountain with another wonderful person in 2017. We’d explore the bizarre anarchism of Slab City and navigate the East Jesus art gallery in the empty yet serene desert”
Change is Coming Soon: Consumer Advocacy
“I started this blog in April 2019. I’ve been posting as frequently as I can, and continue to strive toward advocating for improving your quality of life. I’ve written about deeply personal experiences, advocated for workers’ rights, and touched on religion. I’ve explored satire and politics.”
Vocation, Vocation, Vocation!
“What should I do? Is working with people with disabilities a career I should continue? Is my lack of focus due to my current employer or would this struggle translate to any employer? How do I reduce the paperwork that I’m required to do?”
Injured, Down, and Adapting
“It’s been 9 days since I broke my the 5th metacarpal in my right hand after a freak accident. I’ve struggled to write since then as it’s been 12 days since my last post. I took a typing test with one hand and averaged 40 words per minute [380 more words].
Devil-May-Care III: Stars and Bars in New Mexico
“Was there any way to convince this man with a confederate flag tattoo of logic or reason that Barack Obama was not a communist? What point does it hold to inform a coal miner that the work they do is destroying the planet? How could one ever convince an ignoramus that homeless individuals don’t use drugs when all they see are tents filled with ne’er do wells and dregs of society?”
Creating: Lots of Wondrous Ideas, but then Inadequacy hits
[339 words] Taking that first step of writing and fighting through the feelings of inadequacy, criticism, and failure is a tough pursuit. Even though this post is small, it gives me hope for the future. I’ve sat down in my chair and stared into my monitor’s soul. I start to think and my fingers respond by typing and this gives me courage.
