Blessings, Darlings!
I don’t usually invest my blogging time on religions other than my own, but I DO often invest it in rants, so I guess what follows is going to still be on-brand.
This is inspired by a Facebook post by an ex coworker and now Facebook ex-friend. He posted that humans are not animals. As one would expect, I took issue with this idea. Continue reading…

Today I started work on … Continue reading…

The last time this happened was just pre-covid, when the thoughts were of lockdowns, closings, and the need to build community.
