Living the Good Life, Episode 141 (August 24, 2019): The good life ends for now, College begins again…
Like the title says, this is gonna be the last Living the Good Life entry for a while. College starts next week… WATCHAN: Nothin much this week. I did get IT and Blade Runner 2049 on Blu-ray, though. I suppose you could say I’ve been watching a lot of vids from one horror youtuber I’m […]
Doing It Right This Time (Winning Too Hard, Part 2 of ?)
Remember a little while ago, in this entry about One-Punch Man, I mentioned I was going back to college? Today I’d like to talk a little more about why I’m doing so specifically. To an extent it’s pragmatism. As I mentioned in my previous entry, I’m not having all that much luck in the job […]
All hands on deck! The college struggle begins!
Ooof! Remember last week when I said I couldn’t yet access any syllabi or anything online? That changed pretty quickly.

Anti-Thomist Tidbits: A Defense of the Sexual Revolutionary
A couple weeks ago, the philosopher Edward Feser–despite all I’ve written about him, I can’t call him my rival or nemesis, because he doesn’t know I exist–wrote a blog entry titled, “Psychoanalyzing the Sexual Revolutionary.” In that essay, he argues that “sexual revolutionaries”–those who see nothing wrong with homosexual sex, or trans people, or just […]
Living the Good Life, Episode 138 (August 3, 2019): Excellent productivity!
Another good week, this bodes well! As always, the lowdown… WATCHAN: Jojo ep. 38: Huh, this is weird. In the last episode, 37, Diavolo had just had the crap punched out of him, but now it’s Mista, Abbacio, Narancia, and Fugo chilling in Italy and just hanging out. A flashback or something? Well, then it’s […]
