It’s been a while since my last post. I thought I’d share some random thoughts about relationship dynamics. Relationship dynamics are the patterns of behavior between two people that impact how they interact, communicate, and relate (paired.com https://www.paired.com/articles/relationship-dynamics). I hope my readers glean something from my post. -The feminizing of men in modern society affects […]
The Truth about Red States and Blue States
I preface this blog post by stating up front that the terms “blue state” and “red state” are just another way to label states with populations that are more conservative-minded (red) or liberal-minded (blue) and tend to consistently vote based upon these ideological tendencies (Democratic blue or Republican red). My motivation for writing this post […]
A Word On Extremism
I drafted this post several weeks ago, but didn’t finish the draft until today. The original direction I wanted to take this post in changed in light of the 2024 presidential election and the re-election of Donald Trump to a second, non-consecutive term, only the second time in American history that a president has won […]
What is “Strength”?
Today’s post will not directly address the 2024 presidential election. I’ve posted about politics more than I want to the last couple of posts. However, the election does offer a contrast that I think should help folks understand what “strength” is. The word “strength” gets thrown around a lot during election cycles. Strength has many […]
Four Reasons Why Kamala Harris Will Win
In recent years, I’ve largely avoided posting political topics. My education and experience in politics (I hold a Bachelor’s degree in political science) has made me apolitical to a degree over the years. I don’t subscribe to an ideology, and I try to be pragmatic and objective in forming my political opinions. Political opinions should […]
Bonus Blog Post Today
I finished watching the video embedded above and thought I’d share it with my readers as a bonus blog post for today. This video is a breakdown of former President Donald Trump’s speech at a rally in Pennsylvania this weekend. As the title says, some people attending the rally left the venue in the middle […]
The Myth of “Government Should be Run Like a Business”
As the 2024 presidential election continues to heat up, I am reminded of the old refrain proffered by the Republicans, and usually to support the reason former President Donald Trump should be reelected to a second, nonconsecutive term. That refrain being that “we need a businessman as president since government should be run like a […]
My Political Musings
It’s been a while since my last post. Life gets in the way sometimes. We all have the same 1440 minute per day, so today, I made the time to post some of my thoughts about the tumultuous last couple of weeks in the 2024 election season. I started this blog to serve as a […]
The Real Reason Why Women Should Be Independent (and men shouldn’t be threatened by them)
A clip from an interview of Judge Judy Sheindlin on the Ellen DeGeneres Show hit my Facebook feed today and inspired me to make this post about something very profound that Judge Judy said about why women should be financially independent from their husbands or partners. The relevant clip can be found on YouTube and […]
Thoughts on the NFL and Super Bowl LVIII
PREFACE: Sorry for publishing this post rather late. I started it the week after Super Bowl LVIII ended, but got distracted with other things. I hope everyone enjoys reading this post. Well, another NFL season has come to a close and the Kansas City Chiefs repeat as Super Bowl champions. I would say “congratulations” to […]
