Nauseating Human Beings - The Illogical Seminary

The Trash Has Gone To The Curb 24 Mar 2023
I’m done looking at my fragmentary material. I will still be shoring up and trimming old material, but all the drafts that seemed worth saving have been examined, critiqued, and left to stand on their own. The three readers I have can decide for themselves whether or not this time travel was necessary. I haveContinue […]

My Guy 24 Mar 2023
Despite his shortcomings, I still think Barack Obama has done more good than bad. And there is plenty of room to disagree with me on that. Dissident writing has helped me to understand that we’re always up to something. America’s strategic, and to a larger extent, economic interests always shape how we are going toContinue […]

Bullshit On Parade 23 Mar 2023
I have taken care to stay above the fray as best I can over the Russo-Ukrainian conflict. So much so that I’m not going to call it a war. Politicians are very excited about the “special operation”. That’s because their districts and towns get a big bump in their revenue by producing weapons of war.Continue […]

Funda-mental 23 Mar 2023
Some people, like Chris Hedges, seem to think that there is a “new” atheism, and that we are “secular fundamentalists”. Sorry. Atheism is pretty much just as proud and as strident as it ever has been. Does anyone remember Madalyn Murray O’ Hair? Now that’s what I call hardcore, strident, and righteous. We have alwaysContinue […]

All Quiet On The Bloggy Front 22 Mar 2023
I can’t believe it’s been two weeks since I’ve filled this space with something. Thing is, I’ve been riddled with panic attacks nearly every day lately. I have been to the hospital twice because I thought I was going to die. These aren’t good conditions for me to think straight, or do much of anythingContinue […]

New York, New York. I Still Love Ya, Even With The Crime 22 Mar 2023
When I was in my late teens, I was lucky enough to go play around in Manhattan during the Koch years, when the city was dirty, corrupt, a horrorshow on every block. It was a ten dollar train ride from NJ and a small trip under the Hudson. My crew of malcontents would go upstairsContinue […]

No Good Way Out 22 Mar 2023
I must be honest; our withdrawal from Afghanistan is pretty embarrassing. I realize its origins reside in the Trump administration. You’re an idiot if you believe otherwise. But the black eye, whether deserved or not, is going to go to the Biden team. And today’s terror attack underscores that point. I’m watching my best liberalsContinue […]

Choice Words 22 Mar 2023
I’m late on this, but it’s still really bothering me. President Trump is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. And boy, let me tell you how happy I am that I had to leave the service before I let that motherfucker send me into harm’s way. President George W. Bush lied countless times about ourContinue […]

Here Come The Blackshirts 22 Mar 2023
Mona Charen’s gotten her head out of her ass long enough to sound the klaxon about Trumpian vigilante justice: Donald Trump has effectively deputized a “mob” of vigilantes who are intimidating elected officials and civilians across the country, according to one conservative. Armed extremists have threatened citizens arrests of public officials and others in variousContinue […]

The Third Republic 22 Mar 2023
Because Ugandans have been subjected to some of the worst postcolonial conditions of the late 20th century, it pains my heart to see that there is now a thing like Black Christian Nationalism: Uganda’s parliament has passed sweeping antigay legislation that proposes tough new penalties for same-sex relationships and criminalises anyone identifying as LGBTQ. WhileContinue […]
