    Weekly Wrap Up (Jul. 12 - Jul. 18)

    By wildone

    We had an interesting discussion last week with the Weekly Wrap Up. I see the weather has broke in some places and yet others is getting worse 😮  Up here in Canada, it is so hot and dry we are burning up. Over 1000 wildfires going on right now   I wouldn't go camping now unless it was on a river or lake shore.  So back to one of the parts of the camping theme, I mentioned about swimming. So if you never went camping, or you like 5 star service in a hotel or you camped on a lake or you

Trying To Hang On By My Fingernails

For the past week I’ve been wavering over putting GA on the backburner for the foreseeable future. My mental state is in a total disarray since Rambo bit me and my son had to put him down. Plus, my son has his own mental issues to consider. In effect, we’re both a couple of crazies trying to make do with life.   But, I have a series of stories that may save me. One deals with a boy who was sold by his parents into sexual slavery when he was six. Dabeagle helped me a lot with New York State’s p

49 Celebrities Honor The 49 Pulse Victims

This video technically has a political agenda at the end, though it is not mentioned throughout. As such, I felt it improper to place it in the standard forums. I also didn't want to put it in The Pit, because I believe it should be a bit more visible. It's very powerful, and I hope you'll give it a view.

All This Bandwidth And I Can't Communicate

You're pissed at him.   He's not talking to you.   Maybe... just maybe... he is like me. He just doesn't know what to say.   He knows the words. He needs to say them but, nobody wants to hear them.   I'm closing in on a degree in telecommunications. I know how to make things talk to each other. From two cans and a tight string to super-bandwidth fiber channels. I can move data like a boss. I can connect people across continents. I can upgrade cell towers by replacing a bunch of boards a

Yellowcard Breakup

Brexit is sort of weird and makes you think, but Yellowcard's break up is fucking sad and depressing. I grew up on their tunes from their fun tourhful SoCal melodies in "Ocean Avenue" to their mature tunes in "When you're through with Thinking, Say Yes" and "Southern Air". I am a huge fan of theirs and the fun incorporation of Violins in Rock music.   They're leaving a great legacy of awesome music though:   This song got me into listening to them:     This song makes a lot of sense a

No One Is Alone

No One Is Alone From the musical “Into The Woods” written by Stephen Sondheim Mother cannot guide you Now you're on your own Only me beside you Still, you're not alone No one is alone Truly No one is alone I wish... I know Mother isn't here now Wrong things, right things Who knows what she'd say? Who can say what's true? Nothing's quite so clear now Do things, fight things Feel you've lost your way? You decide, but You are not alone Believe me No one is alone (No one is a

The Year Of Newness

2015 kicked my ass, but I've now come to realize I'm better for it. I lost my job, had very little money, and I could see my relationship of 6 years crumbling. So I did what just about every gay man in his 20s does to cope, and turned to partying and Grindr to help me get away from it all. Predictably, it all ended in disaster that even a blind man could have seen coming. I knew it was coming too, but didn't want to face it. To make a long story short, by Christmas I was single for the first tim

Ever Been A Victim Of Violence?

If you have, you know how much it sucks. You know that your survival isn't guaranteed when you are helpless in the hands of those that have bad intentions.   It's happened to me twice as an adult. I pretty much lived with it as a teen.   Once was a rather serious beating I took as an 18 year old freshman. There was more too it than that but it was bad enough. The second a few years later. I don't remember that one. I was beaten with a blackjack and suffered a severe concussion. Probably left

When Your Other Favorite Forum Becomes A Nightmare

Over the years, I've loved two forums, this one of course and another. The other forum, as of late, has gone to shit. A certain group of assholes started harassing me almost constantly. The staff was almost certainly aware of it and did nothing. They resorted to things like neg repping random posts, comparing me to a member who is a total nutjob who actually stalked another member of Facebook, and just whatever else they could think of to piss me off. Needless to say, I'm done with that site. Bu

Real Statistics - The Truth About Guns And Crime In The Us

As a math geek I can really geek out on statistics.   It is said that statistics can be made to say anything and that is true if you play games with the numbers. I don't.   Those numbers actually say things that don't jive with the political narrative.   Those are the numbers we really need to pay attention to.           Per Capita Gun Ownership: 112 guns per 100 people   The US is #1 worldwide in gun ownership with more guns than people.1       Now- let's look at the US Homici

New Things Are Coming

I am the type of person who likes documenting my life sometimes, so here is a blog post.   I realized that it has been over a year since I posted a story. But this year, two things happened that I am hopeful will get some new work up.   Firstly, I realized that Adderall was completely fucking up my life. I did really well at work (I had the highest productivity back in 2014 and was second highest last year) but outside of work, I was completely miserable. I couldn't sleep well, I could

Studly Ranch Hands ~ Coming Soon To Gay Authors Premium

Keep your eyes out, I'll have a new story coming to Gay Authors Premium in the very near future!   Marc got what he’d wanted for years, but it’s enough to tear apart his friendship with Casey. Marc tries to avoid Casey, but that’s not always possible. A series of incidents puts both of their jobs on the line and Marc and Casey have to decide whether or not the resulting consequences are worth continuing their feud. Or can they put the past behind them and learn to work together as

Story Announcement For 0's And 1's Book 2

Before I start, I just want people to know, Equality Florida has raised 4.6 Million for the victims of the Orlando attack:       This is an awesome cause and I'm probably going to donate again, when I get my next pay check. https://www.gofundme.com/PulseVictimsFund   Now to the main subject:   I am postponing the publication of Book 2 until October, both because the subject matter is too close to reality and I do not wish to inflame passions with my writing. For my readers, you know fro

Goodbye Rambo

Was it inevitable? We’ll never know.   What is known is that my son’s 90 lb. German Shepherd bit me yesterday morning with no provocation. I was sitting at the desk working on the laptop and Nana was rummaging around my chair. I reached down to pet her and Rambo chomped down onto my forearm and wrist with enough force to draw blood. Luckily for me, this time the entire episode was viewed by my son who has been of the opinion that every time Rambo has attacked me in the past has, somehow, been

Donations For The Victims Of Orlando Attack

If you are able and capable of making small donations online to the victims of the Orlando LGBT Nightclub attack, which killed 49 people and left 53 people injured, here's a few legitimate donation sites:   https://www.gofundme.com/PulseVictimsFund I double checked this against Equality Florida's main website, it is legitimate (Direct link to updates seems to be failing, I'll just link to the main site) http://www.eqfl.org/   I will try to update this with new charities and resources as they

Cadet Cruise- Intro & Chapter 1- Yes It Really Is Happening

Introduction When the Alliance Civil War broke out 2549, the giant TranStellar corporations located in the Corporate Sector seceded from the Alliance and formed the Consolidated Federation (commonly called the ConFed). The ConFed consisted of five huge TransStellar corporations: Nakajima, MilTech, Venture, предприятие (Enterprise) and Gradient plus hundreds of smaller subsidiaries located in the sector. Those five corporations alone accounted for almost thirty percent of the Alliance GNP. In th

Hangin' Out At Alumni Weekend

University of Delaware has something we call Alumni Weekend, where hordes of former Blue Hens come back and visit campus to relive their past, including and up to staying in the dorms.   I wound up spending a nice afternoon with a couple that I knew in passing at UD, Johanna and Chris. Johanna was an R.A. with my friend Stephen, and we wound up connecting at his memorial two years ago. Jo and Chris live in Queens, and had ridden the bus down here. This was their first time at Alumni Weekend. (

Looking For A New Party

I don't care for the collectivism of the left or the religious fuk-tardery of the right.   Party must be responsible and consistent with American values and traditions.   Perpetrators of violent protests, race baiting and war mongering need not apply.   Twelve point that are non-negotiable:   1. Constitution is paramount- highest law in the land. Messing with it is a bad idea and denying anybody's rights based on race, gender or orientation is a non-starter. 2. National Security- A stron

Touching Base

This is something I wrote to my Patreon supporters, but I figured I'd seek some input here, too. Hello everyone! I'm writing to inform you of a number of things going on with my writing at the moment. First, I will soon be releasing another serial titled "Fearless". It's a shorter work, only 11 chapters long, and it was fun to write, though I'm not sure what the reaction will be from my readers. I wrote it differently than I've ever written anything else, and I'm curious to see how it will be
