“This chick has BPD.” It only took 15 minutes of watching Amber Heard’s testimony for me to see she had a personality disorder.

Once I heard Amber speak, however, I … [Read more...]

Happy New Year! I know I’m a little late on that, but hey, better late than never. Anyway, 2020 is the start of a new decade, and I thought I’d use this opportunity to round up some lessons I learned in the last one. I couldn’t quite make it to 2,020 though, so I knocked off the last zero for a total of 202 instead. All … [Read more...]

play to win thumb

“Wow...I did it again.” That was my thought as I sat flanked by two of my aunts and with my mom seated across from me, all of us gripping the remnant of cards we were dealt. Three cards were in play on the table, and the problem was, I had no idea which one my partner played. The game was Spades, a staple of my family’s … [Read more...]

There are certain times, however, when I’m unapologetic … [Read more...]
