I do stuff but we're just getting to know each other so why don't you slow down a bit?

It's Time We Grow Up & Stand Up
The planet is dying. There are just no if's, and's or but's about it. I could go on and on about drought, wildfire, polar melting, but you already know all that. The next person you see, they know too. Same with the person after that and the person after that. Your lover knows. Your boss knows. Your best friend knows, and so does his Mom. Heck, your dog probably knows. Even those who deny how close we are to unstoppable oblivion realize there is harm in our current global expansionist lifestyle; those who mock Greta often mock the air quality in China as well.

5 Tasty Ways to Cook Squirrel
Some people do nothing but crave steaks. I have heard those who say ribs are the greatest thing a man or woman (or whatever other genders there are) can eat. Of course, being Americans, many of us would argue the greatest meat contraption available is our beloved burger. But to me, nothing beats the delicate, sweet tender meat from a squirrel.

What AEW's Nyla Rose Doesn't Understand
It's a weird time to be a wrestling fan. Professional wrestling is, at its core, people pretending to beat the living hell out of each other in brutal, real athletic contests. It was two, or four, or more men doing their best to convince their audience that they were real, the fight was real, and that wrestling was real. People were fired, beaten or excommunicated for exposing the tricks behind the magic they'd perform in the ring, because keeping that illusion was the single most important thing to the wrestling business. Well, outside making money.

Elizabeth Warren's Insults Towards Short People Have Driven me to Vote Trump
Seattle, Washington will never be quite the same to me. I don't live there, but I do visit from time to time, and it is one of my favorite cities in America, no joke. I love the history of the town; from its founding by members of the Denny party (a fascinating group of people) to grunge music of the 90's, Seattle just fascinates me. While many don't think of it as a cultural hotspot, Seattle excels in both artistic endeavors as well as cuisine. I've been to the finest restaurants in London, Chicago, New York, Paris and more, however the dining in Seattle is on par to anywhere I've ever been. The natural beauty which surrounds the area is quite varied and breathtaking as well. Truly, Seattle is a city to behold.

Love is Love?
Lately, I keep hearing something from the left: love is love. I actually agree in their sentiment; I could care less about homosexuality, bisexuality or any of it. I want people to find happiness, and if a man finds happiness in a man, or a woman finds happiness in a woman, it's no skin off my nose. Yes, I'm fairly centrist when it comes to homosexuality. I could care less who people marry, as long as they are marrying the person who makes them happy.

Why Hasn't #METOO Gotten Howard Stern?
I don't understand who Howard Stern has paid off? Maybe the King of All Media somehow made a deal with the devil? I just don't get it. After coasting off the talent of Jackie Martling for years and then going to XM where he was somehow less offensive than he was on FM, somehow Howard Stern is now around kids all the time? How is this not setting off radars! How is this not causing huge online unrest! I just don't understand it, try as I might!

With President Sanders, I Could Marry My Dog!
So, is it just me, or is beastiality a totally demeaning and insulting term? Both to the humans who enjoy it, and to animals in general. I mean, who is the beast in the equation? I know society isn't judging me and calling me a beast, yet referring to the animals as beasts is just short-sighted! Was Lassie a beast? Was Flipper a beast? I know for a fact the Taco Bell Chihuahua wasn't a beast, I've met him! Twice!

Why Batman is a Violent, Narcissistic Villain
Everybody loves Batman. Men want to be him, people of a variety of genders and sexual identities want to date him, because quite frankly, why wouldn't they? Batman is tall, rich, got a company worth a gazillion dollars, and an English butler! He literally has it all. He is everything we hope to be, and everything we hope to obtain. The irony being, just like most of us have an inability to appreciate what we have sometimes, Batman, or Bruce Wayne rather, depressingly broods like an angsty teenager.

Why I Think I Regret Sleeping With My Trans Niece
I need to start off by saying, please don't judge me. I have spent enough time judging myself, and you know, that is exactly I decided to write this article. It is high time that people stop judging others, even if you've been in their shoes! People are different, and depending on our astrological sign, the way we were raised, and our soul itself, humans can turn out to be very different creatures. One man's crack cocaine is another's Cobb salad, after all. I really need a safe place to explore if this was a mistake or not, sleeping with my niece that is, because I think it may have been. But then again, what is a mistake other than just a learning experience?

5 Things You Can Do With Honey
Honey is just beyond great. It may be one of the most fantastic things on the face of the planet. You know it, I know it, and they know it. Heck, even that beloved bear Winnie the Pooh knows it. Honey is a delicious and nutritious natural sweetener, and unlike that dastardly cancer causing sugar, honey gives the body an energetic boost which does not cause it to crash! But did you know honey has a ton more uses than just eating it or putting it in your coffee and tea? Yes? You did? Well, good for you, you show-off, but I bet you didn't know all of these!

White Rappers That Make Your Friends Roll Their Eyes
If you really love hip-hop, there probably are a few guys who you really dig who your friends just can’t stand. And for whatever reason, there’s no bad rapping like white bad rapping. I'd hate to perpetuate the separation of the races here, and I'm usually actually fighting for unity because we are all one man and one species after all, but I couldn’t help but make this list because it’s just too damn funny and true: these are the white rappers who make your friends roll your eyes deep into the back of their head.

Columbus, GA: One of America's Most Romantic Getaways
It strikes me odd, as a vast majority of my most romantic vacations are always in spots not known for their romance. Sure, I've done Paris, New York, Las Vegas, San Diego, London and all the rest, but all those places seem either overcrowded, overly expensive, or they happen to be just plain old tourist traps. To me, a key component to romance is reality, not fantasy. Fantasy works great for short affairs, but despite its glamorization by Hollywood and the music industry, there is nothing romantic or sexy about bumping uglies with random people. Romance comes with love, not lust.
