Mobile Post

Well, this is interesting. I’m currently writing this post on my phone. The git repository I’m writing it into is currently tucked away neatly into Termux.apk, and it’s a full and working blog development environment including Hugo right on my phone itself. If I had a good stand and a keyboard to use this wouldn’t be a bad setup.

I can also take photos and post them up directly as well. This is cool. About to see how a command line commit with git goes. Wish me luck.

Tired

Man, I’m really tired. I think a part of it is the lingering notion that it might be time for me to step out of my comfort zone and start exploring programming in a serious way, either by learning javascript or python, and maybe trying to do something career-wise with it. I dunno. I’ve heard, and seen, that javascript is a complete fucking mess. Python is pretty awesome, but I’ve just never spent any significant amount of time messing with it.

God Is Dead

It’s true, God is dead. He was absolutely fucking slaughtered by rational inquiry. That’s okay. I bet it happens to nearly every species that attains sentience. Surely we can’t be alone in experiencing this, the universe is far too large for that to be the case.

I suppose the most important take-away here is that God never existed in the first place, at least not as an omnipotent sky-wizard. He existed as a literary figure that helped us to explain why we’re here and the world around us. There really is no purpose to him anymore, so it’s time we retired this “God” person, as the people who still cling to his existence are destroying society and- honestly -they’re destroying the planet as well. So that’s that, we can wrap it up now. God is dead, and he ain’t coming back. No “return of Jesus”. Do not pass “go”. Do not collect $200. God is dead.

Justices Found Lying Under Oath Should Be Removed

AOC says Supreme Court justices who lied under oath must face consequences for ‘impeachable offense’

I heavily fucking agree with that article. I think the justices that stated under oath they accepted Roe v. Wade as “established precedent” should be removed, not impeached. Fucking removed. Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Thomas, Barrett, and Alito, should be fucking removed. This redneck trash with assault rifles have been allowing these MAGA clowns to remove rights by limiting what is allowed in any given abortion, even though it was a constitutionally protected right. Well, you know what we should do? We should ban devices that use cartridges and gunpowder completely, let the fucking gun nuts own only compressed gas and spring loaded pellet guns. Fuck these fucking redneck pieces of shit, they can have all the right to “bear arms” so long as the projectile involved won’t break skin. Fucking asshole trash bags.

It’s my Blog and I’ll Do What I Want To

Seems like it happens every time. It happened the last time I set up Wordpress. The ease of posting to my blog seems to generate an inverse relationship with my post frequency. I’ll post a ton at first, and then my posts taper down to nothing, sometimes going whole months without even so much as a dead man’s switch. It’s alright, though. Honestly, the times through the day that I feel most compelled to write are when I’m bored. That usually is at work, but it hasn’t been lately, to be honest. Lately I’ve been finding things to do that are work related if I’m bored, which I guess is a good thing. I dunno. We’ll see how long it lasts, though.

War on Religion

I had planned to write a different post, but honestly- This is what I really wanted to do with a post. I’m going to expose religious zealots for what they are. Rapists.

Bishop Accountability
ProPublica: Credibly Accused
Sexual Harassment Went Unchecked at Christianity Today
Houston Chronicle: Abuse of Faith

If you’re against abortion I want you to ask yourself, “am I so against abortion that I’m okay with my child being forced to birth a rape baby by her rapist?” If the answer is “yes”, you’re trash, and I hope you never make peace with or reconcile that.

Opinion: Why Im Going to Saudi Arabia

I figured I’d take a minute to offer my thoughts on Biden’s explanation of why he’s going to visit Saudi.

I appreciate that Biden seems to admit quickly that what happened to Jamal Khashoggi was really fucked up.

I released the intelligence community’s report on the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, issued new sanctions, including on the Saudi Arabia’s Rapid Intervention Force involved in his killing, and issued 76 visa bans under a new rule barring entry into the United States for anyone found to be involved in harassing dissidents abroad. My administration has made clear that the United States will not tolerate extraterritorial threats and harassment against dissidents and activists by any government.
