Crisis Averted

Okay, far as I can tell everything is now secured – but let me know if you see something weird somewhere. I seem to have acquired a very stubborn sort of keystroke recorder somewhere some how that is sharing my passwords far and wide. I am no longer using the computer that it is on…

This account Hacked

Apparently basically all of my passwords for everything, including my WordPress account, have been compromised and tossed out on the dark web or whatever. So if you see something strange from me on here or any social media please disregard. It seems there must be a tracker of some kind actually on my computer as…

3 Things that made me go “Wow”

You must find wonder in life. Life is amazing. All the time. Every day I try to find something that makes me go “Wow”. Yesterday and today featured three WOW moments that were so outstanding, I wanted to share. This story showed up in my news feed Sunday. A race car driver in a terrible…

The Female Power Tag

I have been quite enjoying watching this tag make it’s way around the blogosphere and learning about so many different women, real and fictional who are powerful in different ways. But I wasn’t sure if I really wanted to tackle it. Alas, Pinkie, my beloved blogging bestie got me. And so I procrastinated about it…

Why I can’t watch fighting sports anymore

I was listening to a Conspiracy Theories podcast today about the Muhammad Ali/Sonny Liston fights, two of the most controversial boxing matches of all time.

Murder Among The Mormons is a documentary about Mark Hofman, who was a well known and trusted seller of historical documents – until it was learned that he was actually a skilled forger who also killed two people to cover up his crimes. The killings, bombings, occurred in the mid 1980s…

Thoughts on Nomadland and some other stuff

I watched Nomadland on Netflix the other day and it was pretty good. It was a pretty realistic depiction of the how and why so many people my age and older (and younger) have decided to live the RV life. In one part a woman says she worked all her life and SSI is $550…

Scam alert – Zolucky

Isn’t this a pretty coat? https://zolucky.com/products/printed-casual-cotton-blend-outerwear-6095238 Looks like it is knit, with embroidered flowers and details as well as some lace, doesn’t it? I’ve wanted it for ages. I ordered it with the stimulus, because I also desperately need a winter coat. I went through this whole winter without one. This is what I got:…

Saturday Cartoons Steaming consciousness

It’s only fair to warn you. It’s been a weird Saturday. This is going to be one of those stream of consciousness type posts that I generally consider myself above writing. You know, I like a beginning, middle, conclusion. a POINT. Well, today is round. For starters, it’s Saturday. Cartooooooons!!!! Except we started with a…

The Sad Truth

A couple of years ago I had to unpublish all of my books on Kindle, and undo, destroy, and demolish all the web work I had done over the last decade or two. It was a gut punch I may never in my life recover from. And it was because I was earning a piddly…
