Social Networking Finally Working on Site

The Social Networking software is now up and running on the site. After reviewing many options the last month or so I chose to use BuddyPress which I have used before. It is free and open-source software (FOSS). There are some other really cool open-source options on the horizon, but this should do anything needed …

Beyond Bizarro World – Scene 2

Headline: Salon Forced to Close After Refusing to Wax Transgender Woman’s Male Genitalia No, I am not making this up.

Proles and animals are free

Nextcloud on Linux working superbly

After many weeks of thinking about it I finally got Nextcloud installed on both my Linux systems last evening. It is working flawlessly so far. Nextcloud is backup and file syncing software, but it is more than that. I finally moved all my systems to Linux two years ago after many years of experimenting with …

thoughts on mindful anonymity…

When I first started thinking about this site I assumed it would be mostly anonymous. Not so that people could hide behind some facade (people including myself), but so that we might speak freely without fear of repercussions by some real-life whack-job. Using pseudonyms has been done throughout the ages. That being said, I have …

Creating Chaos in Venezuela

Catching up on the day’s news before I call it a night, I see that Ilhan Omar is once more under attack. She said that the United States helped create the chaos in Venezuela. Well, everything I have seen for weeks and months suggests that that is absolutely the case. We create chaos around the …

Religion blushing veils her sacred fires

A fascinating exchange. A Muslim immigrant to Canada explains to a reporter from Rebel Media that homosexuality is not an organic lifestyle and that Canada’s embrace of it will prove to be its own demise. Amen.

Patriotism is the Religion of Hell

This is one of my favorite quotes, yet I hesitated to post it to my spacebook wall for many years. I post it here as I finally posted it there a couple months ago, and will follow up with more thoughts below… I fear this will be misunderstood by most, even the ones who at …

Though the name of liberty delights the ear

“Though the name of liberty delights the ear, and tickles the fond pride of man, it is a jewel much oftener the play-thing of his imagination than a possession of real stability; it may be acquired to-day in all the triumph of independent feelings, but perhaps to-morrow the world may be convinced, that mankind knows …

trading this for that…

I haven’t sold anything on eBay in a long time, although a number of years ago I did. I like eBay, or the concept of it at least, before it got so greedy. It was like a coast-to-coast garage sale. If you couldn’t find something anywhere else, you might still find it there. And the …
