What the Boss Likes – a little self-promotion

I've started an etsy store for my alcohol ink paintings, EvanescentInks.  It's entirely a vanity project. 🙂 Please enjoy the images!  If you would like to buy one, neat!  But don't feel like you should. The image is my take on the hobo sign for kind woman, and in my instance, one with claws.  I … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – a little self-promotion

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Happy Fourth of July! Hobby Lobby is at it again with their 2018 ad

Unsurprisingly, we have a hobby lobby july 2018 ad (happily saved for posterity here), the folks that want to force their religion on their employees (and you) and who have no problem in depending on people working on the “Sabbath” whilst ever-so piously closing their stores on the same day. The people living under authoritarian governments … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Happy Fourth of July! Hobby Lobby is at it again with their 2018 ad

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Hey, Sessions trotted out Romans 13

I hadn't realized that AG Sessions cited Romans 13 for his excuses for his and Trump's actions. “Persons who violate the law of our nation are subject to prosecution.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Yep, some Christians really are this desperate

As if you didn't think some American conservative Christians weren't crazy enough, we have this: "The question either infuriates or intrigues tens of millions of Americans: Did God play a role in the victory of Donald Trump? The debate will soon be presented in movie theaters across the country, as evangelical megaschool Liberty University is … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Yep, some Christians really are this desperate

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – two questions answered

In my last post, I wrote about abortion rights. I haven’t heard anything from any abortion opponents yet to answer my questions. However, I did note that the pastor I addressed has two questions for health choice advocates to answer on his blog. Unsuprisingly, Pastor Dave does not allow comments on his website. You can … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – two questions answered

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Congratulations, Ireland

I generally don’t blog about abortion rights. I find abortion to be a stupid thing to be used for birth control, but sometimes it’s the only option and it’s everyone’s right to control their own body and choose the healthcare that they want.
