1. Something has intruded on my personal life, which I'm still learning to deal with. It's knocked my attention (already unbalanced) for a real loop, so this'll be kind of haphazard. It's a personal matter, but just know that...well, I don't know what things will be like going forward. 2. I saw Godzilla vs. Kong … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: Mostly Random

Friday Flotsam – Mostly on Superman
1. Been adjusting lately to various life developments (yeah, I'm gonna go with that), which means I haven't quite worked out how to fit blogging into the picture. I intend to blog more regularly going forward, but so far I haven't worked out how. 2. Working on a post summarizing how I think Zack Synder … Continue reading Friday Flotsam – Mostly on Superman

Friday Flotsam – Psych Issues and I Get a Review!
1. First and foremost, my appalling ego requires me to advise you all to hop over to A Song of Joy for a review of my first published book: The Wisdom of Walt Disney. It's also the first review of that book that I've received. To say more would be unpardonably self-aggrandizing. 2. In celebration … Continue reading Friday Flotsam – Psych Issues and I Get a Review!
Friday Flotsam: The Feast of St. Joseph
1. A blessed Feast of St. Joseph to you all! May the foster father of Our Lord Jesus intercede on behalf of everyone who reads this and for the Church and our nation as a whole. 2. A thought occurred to me this morning, listening to a sermon on St. Joseph (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OXUfeFFjXg). The priest points … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: The Feast of St. Joseph
Friday Flotsam: Consequences
1. We really need to stop using the language of the other side. Among other things, I really hate when people use the term 'divisive' or list 'being divided' as one of the major problems we currently face. See, that implies that the dispute is the problem, not the content of one side or the … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: Consequences
Friday Flotsam: Slack Tide
1. As I think I've mentioned before now, I don't currently belong to a parish, mostly because my living situation is not one that I want to ascribe any kind of permanency to. However, I have been attending one particular parish as a rule for some time now, mostly because they kept offering the Sacraments … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: Slack Tide
Friday Flotsam: The Possibility of a New Constantine and the Chance to Buy Me a Drink
1. First let's talk coffee You may notice the new tip-jar in the right-hand menu or the footer. If you've been making the rounds of our little corner of the internet, you've probably heard of Ko-fi by now. Simply put, it's a service where if you like what you see here and want to show … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: The Possibility of a New Constantine and the Chance to Buy Me a Drink
Friday Flotsam: Pro-Life and Depression
1. Discovered that the March for Life is today. All things considered, I'm rather surprised they're actually having it. You know, I'm thoroughly against abortion (whatever arguments can be brought in its favor, the answer is always "would that logic still apply if the child were born and we were talking about smothering it with … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: Pro-Life and Depression
Friday Flotsam
1. So, we had surprisingly massive influx of views this week to my Quick Word on Disconnecting post. If you're joining us from elsewhere, welcome and I hope you stick around, though don't expect a whole lot of content like that one. I try to minimize my commentary on current events and politics, though I … Continue reading Friday Flotsam
