Crap in a hat! That’s some fucked up luck in gaming groups. All of them sucked, but the Orc Master is of particular interest to me. Over the years of being a GM for just about every game under the sun I’ve come up with a hard and fast rule. If the first words out of a player’s mouth is “I want to play an evil…

I think Kanye has serious talent, but like a lot of people with that much talent they tend to do what ever the hell they damn well please. I don’t know why that’s the case, but it just seems to be. Honestly, the music industry needs to just accept that this is how it is and not try to get Kanye to do staged events.…
When I saw this photo all I could think of was the tagline “Hail Hydra!”
I was cautiously hopeful about the ruling, but you have to realize that there has been a very serious shift in how the general population views LGBT rights. I was a teenager and first aware that I was gay in 1978. I grew up through the beginning of GRID, which became AIDS, which was widely touted on television as the…

This video is always appropriate when discussing the state of my birth.
Eh, Jack's okay, but I have a serious crush on dopey Constable Hugh Collins. I just like the big lug. Here's the three of them at the beach. For science!
The show looks like fun, but it does remind me a great deal of The Wind in Willows.
Got to see the Cocteau Twins live in New Orleans for their Four Calender Cafe tour. I had always been a fan, but I had never seen them live before and I was worried that some of the power of the music would be lost. I could not have been more clueless. Liz Frazier's voice soared out over the audience, swooping and…
There is a quote from 'The 13th Tale" by Dianne Setterfield that I think covers this debate pretty well:
"There are too many books in the world to read in a single lifetime; you have to draw the line somewhere."
Thank you, I get why you and other members of the trans community need to weigh in on this confrontation between RuPaul and Malloy, but honestly this kind of talk doesn't do anyone any favors. Sometimes I worry about how factional the LGBT community is becoming. We all face similar stigma and the stakes are pretty…
I'm glad you pointed this out. I'm sure all of the gay men and lesbians who have been the victims of 'fag-bashing' are happy to know that wasn't oppression. I grew up gay in the 70s and 80s and was regularly told by our society that not only would I die because I was gay, I would die horribly and alone. Yes, the Trans…
One of my all-time favorite drive to work songs is 'Mississippi, Goddamn!' I do, however, live in Mississippi, so it probably has extra resonance with me.
Thankfully, they are still both in my life. That friend and I are constantly sending each other books, usually with a hastily scrawled "You must read this!" attached. In our latest exchange I sent him Shadow of the Wind and he sent me The Night Circus. We live in different cities now, so we only meet in person a…
When I was growing up my father had painted a mural on the wall shared by my bedroom and the living room of our house. The mural was a reproduction of a photo of a crumbling ruin of a castle on the southern coast of Spain. The castle wall in the foreground of the mural ended in a small gate. The gate was painted over…
Yeah, Red's one of my faves on the show and Kate is pretty much killer in any part she takes. Watching last season of Orange is the New Black caused me to re-watcher Star Trek: Voyager. Janeway is by far my favorite Starfleet captain, even over (and I know this is blasphemy) Picard. Yeah, so I'm a geek, I'll cop to it.
