I struggle to parse through my thoughts in the wake of this week’s atrocities as I seek solutions that are seemingly non-existent. One quote, however, comes to mind: “My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man,” said JFK … Continue reading

Chicanery or Fraud? An analysis of the Nevada Democratic Convention
I’m writing this, not to defend Hillary. She’s done enough on her own to merit suspicion. I write this because the trend lately is for the extreme left to use the same tactics to twist information that they would otherwise condemn. And while some may say it is for a good cause, the means most … Continue reading
Donald Trump: Not The Candidate We Deserve But The Candidate The GOP Needs.
I’m sitting here blood boiling and booty bothered by the very real candidacy of Donald Trump for President. Sometimes I pretend that it is an elaborate hoax. Come nomination day, he will come out riding a Donkey while Ashton Kutcher rides behind him, clutching his waist and screaming “You Got Punked!” Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, … Continue reading
Thoughts on Depression and Why You Shouldn’t Label It as Cowardice
In the midst of Robin Williams’ death many have resorted to calling him a coward for committing suicide. They cite his fame, money, and general public love and approval as reason enough to not have committed suicide, while failing to see that depression goes deeper than that. I’m no expert on depression so I can … Continue reading
The Elusory Hashtag
Disclaimer: I do WUT I WANT and I’m about to rant They say you can tell the size of man by the size of the things that bother him… Well, your dumb hashtags bother me so I must be rather small. Sue me! But since I am a nice person, I will explain the … Continue reading
My Quarter-Century Life Crisis
JUST KIDDING! I’m not having a crisis because I’m way more awesome now than I ever have been. Nonetheless, I’m writing this to rally the troops. When I was 19, an older co-worker warned me: “Wait till you turn 25 and all your peers will start getting married and having children.” I met that statement with a … Continue reading
On the perceived moral decline of women and sexism…
Recently I’ve read blog after blog of trash, trash and more trash on how the hookup culture has ruined relationships, on why xyz cultures are sexist, and how finding decent people to date has become as impossible as finding a unicorn; and well I call bullshit although I’m not sure I even have the words … Continue reading
So I graduated… What Now?
On August 6th, 2013 my undergrad career came to an abrupt end. Before I walked across the stage to receive my fake diploma, I was giving up my student ID card and realizing I could no longer use FIU’s gym for free. Hurray! I survived Economics and can now draw monopoly profits and game theory … Continue reading
Goodbye Florida: Stand Your Ground & the Precedent Created by the Trayvon Martin Case
Sunday morning, for the first time in a really long time, tears of anger ran down my face. As I read my twitter feed for daily news, I realized what I already expected; George Zimmerman who fatally shot Trayvon Martin had been acquitted. And although the racial nature of this case escalated to a civil … Continue reading
Edward Snowden Is No Hero
Edward Snowden, the whistle blower who leaked NSA documents revealing extensive eavesdropping programs, is now on the run and the nation is torn; Is he a hero or traitor? In my opinion he is neither. It amazes me that so many Americans were outraged by what was revealed. I mean really, did they live under … Continue reading
