Love is love.. or is it?

1 min read

Years ago, I knew a college student who had very unique sexual orientation.

He loved having sex with dead animals.

He told the class, that was the only way he felt love.. only IF the animal was dying or dead.

He was arrested a year later, after being caught behind a preschool, having sex with a dead dog.

He was an interesting fellow. Always smelled like something dead.

Please, don't be too judgemental. All he ever wanted was love.


He was a poet, who enjoyed quoting poetry about love.

I want to sleep with you.

No, I don't mean have sex.

I mean sleep.

Together. Under a blanket.

In your bed.

While you are laying on my arm, with my other hand on your tummy.

With the window cracked, so it is chilly and we have to cuddle closer.

No talking, just the muffled cries that you slowly seep away from your blood-gurgling mouth, as I slit your throat and sacrifice your worthless non binary life to the dark transgender overlord..

Necrosexuals need love too.



Love is love.. or is it?

The news about the Wuhan virus CAN be depressing.

We need to focus on the positive news, during these dark times.

GOOD news, many communities ARE safe, because people ARE staying home.

Use your time being creative... create YOUR masterpiece!

Remember to network with your friends and family.  Let them know you care about them.

We will get through this pandemic!

Stay SAFE!

Information and images can be powerful

3 min read

INTEL is powerful.

The written word is usually the ideal for most of us who read and know the tragedies and joys of reality.

We ALSO live in an age where the written word is less used by the public. We can “thank” TV and video for that.

For many people, Images are their source of intel and attention.

When we reason people, those images are “facts”.
As tainted as sound bytes are, images can also be twisted by the devious manipulator.
As a graphic story writer, I know well about how the words and images can be distorted.
Words mean things.

Self censorship is good. Many of us practice our own version of it. For some folks, they don’t want to see or know of the cruel world.
That is understandable. That IS their CHOICE.

We also need to understand that censorship can force us to become “politically correct” to someone’s ideal of reality.

In our world full of images and intel,  This information CAN shape our reality.

As an artist, I had struggled with this issue.
What is appropriate to make as a statement for my audience?

I’m a true OLD liberal. (Liberal of 200 years ago). I will portray that reality how I see it.

Thinking and reasoning is a part of my creativity.

Images DO work.

Have FUN being CREATIVE!

We attract to ourselves, what WE are

Some people will get offended by everything you say.

Some people will dig a logical fallacy out of everything you say.

Some people will never truly listen to what you say.

That's fine.

Cut them off. Move on.

The world is full of kind, respectful, smart people.

No need to endure.

Have FUN Being creative!

Recycle your pain into creativity

3 min read
"One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star." — Friedrich Nietzsche

"To write tragedy, a man must feel tragedy." — Bertrand Russell


Use your personal suffering to create beauty.
Do not let it go to waste.

Create art.

Write, paint, draw, sculpt, code.

Channel your pain into the creation of something truly impressive.

Make your curse a blessing.


- Just be careful you don't end up building your whole identity around the story of your pain..
instead of the story of your healing.
