The Chosen – Christian Entertainment That Competes
“The Message” in The Chosen is The Truth
Criminal Justice Reform – Why?
Talk to most Boomers, and almost all Gen Xers down to Gen…Alpha??(if you happen to stumble upon a 12-year-old with strong feelings on the subject) When you do, you will hear almost unanimous consent on the issue: “Something must be done.”
The Terminal List
“the show we’ve been told so many other things were but weren’t”
Shapiro and Walsh are Wrong on GOP Midterms: Let’s Be Honest
“the midterm elections should be a slap in the face”
Cobra Kai – Republicans Buy Sneakers Too
“learning who you are” is a lifelong endeavor.
Magic Pills – Thomas Sowell on Education…and Congress
Congress is a mirror held up to our country.
The Pro-Putin Right
“We Hate Intersectionalism Too!!”
The Flight Attendant
Every once in awhile, I feel as though I am too harsh on the current state of cinematic entertainment, so I’ll attempt to remove all of my pre-conceived notions, avoid any and all issues I may have with a subject-matter, and dive into one of the ‘new releases’ floating around one of the streaming sites.Continue reading “The Flight Attendant”
Limitless – Good Enough
…a 21st century Tin Man
Full Moon – A Promising Promise
Is it just me, or is Murphy the worst?! My thoughts upon finishing Jim Butcher’s 2nd installation of The Dresden Files is excitement and anticipation. Jim continues to seek out the voices of the characters in Full Moon, and does so in a way that the reader is happy to labor through with him. TheContinue reading “Full Moon – A Promising Promise”
Bureaucracies
They are designed toward exceptions to the rules…
A Mirror
I’s Figurin History is fascinating to me; dry, suffocating, tedious, and utterly fascinating. As a product of my generation, I have had the fortune of growing up at a time when anyone with a moderate level of means has unlimited access to not only every possible recorded event in history via written text, but oftenContinue reading “A Mirror”
Ghostbuster: Afterlife – Lowered Expectations
To be fair, the sentiment attached to the title of this post could/should be applied to every piece of entertainment that comes out today. This just happens to be the most recent movie that benefits from the bottomed-out expectations of the movie going audience. And, to be clear, I am not free from this sentiment.Continue reading “Ghostbuster: Afterlife – Lowered Expectations”
3 Days At The Brink
Three Days At The Brink Three Days At The Brink was my first trip through a Bret Baier book. In the acknowledgements, at the end, he mentions how this was the third in his series about impactful events surrounding the Cold War; with his first being Three Days in January (about Eisenhower” and the secondContinue reading “3 Days At The Brink”
Purpose
Squirrel! It is no secret, for those paying attention, that one of the biggest voids in today’s society is a void of purpose among the younger generation. In my arrival to the political scene, shortly after college graduation, I quickly made the observation that the issues in our society that draw the most attention areContinue reading “Purpose”
Comic Books – What am I doing here?
Comic Books There are some who would say it’s strange that I read comics. I mean, I’m not a lifer. I didn’t ride my bike down to the LCS every Saturday during the Summer to catch up with my neighborhood spider. I didn’t have a strong opinion about my favorite Robin and I certainly didn’tContinue reading “Comic Books – What am I doing here?”
The Suicide Squad – Quit Making Me Feel Old!
I love movies. I promise, I do! When I was a freshman in college, and still a bit naïve as to the size of the Earth, I made a vow to watch every movie ever made. Now, I was not 100% serious about the declaration but, in my mind, I believed that it was anContinue reading “The Suicide Squad – Quit Making Me Feel Old!”
Redemption- ‘Nah, It’ll Be Fine’
So, I was sitting on my only piece of furniture a couple months ago, after having just finished my last 11 beers from the fridge and was waiting on the sweet release of death (or at least my bladder), when I thought to myself. “Millinial, you gorgeous, intelligent, inspiring portrait of masculinity, you, you shouldContinue reading “Redemption- ‘Nah, It’ll Be Fine’”
Sonic The Hedgehog
Sonic The Hedgehog Sonic is a fine enough movie. I felt that most of the comedy landed, the member-berries were used the correct amount, they did a good job of establishing the voice of Sonic that they were going for, and Jim Carrey, although a bit neutered, did his Jim Carrey thing. And while IContinue reading “Sonic The Hedgehog”
