Et tu, Gab?

By | November 22, 2018

I think I posted one thing on Gab.ai maybe a year ago and never used it again. It promised to be a place where free speech could flourish, or at least a place where conservatives could say things like “there are two genders” or “abortion is wrong” or “I have a policy disagreement with someone… Read More »

Reassembling the Blogpsphere

By | October 8, 2018

This has been festering in the back of my brain for the past few days. I stopped blogging, really, about the time we got pregnant with our second child. I don’t know if it was that or Google Reader being discontinued, but both certainly had an effect. Maybe it was the new position at my… Read More »

Trolling a California Politician

By | July 15, 2018

Remember this guy? Well, because California is weird he’s going to go up against Diane “Mr and Mrs America, turn them all in” Feinstein in the general election for her Senate seat even though he lost the primary. And the California Democrat Party just endorsed him over her. Apparently she’s too right wing for them.… Read More »

Does your Cherokee suddenly overheat?

By | September 17, 2017

I see that question a lot. The story basically goes something like this: I was out on the interstate today, going about 75mph in 90 degree heat with the AC on full blast (probably with a lift, bigger tires, and stock gearing), and I noticed that my temp gauge was a little over 210. Close… Read More »

I made a thing

By | July 18, 2017

I continue to absolutely love living in the future. I am a cheap bastard. My cars are old. My house is old. My guns are significantly newer, but they’re not expensive. The most expensive gun I own is the AR10 I built and most of that is because AR10. My “long range”* rifle is a… Read More »

AR10 Mag Pouch for PMAG20 and PMAG25

By | June 17, 2017

So I did a thing and built an AR10. I bought the lower and about twenty PMAGs (a mix of 20 and 25 LR/SRs) in late October of 2016. You know, back when Hillary! was inevitable and before the Russians hacked the election. Or something. Anyway, I built the lower into a 16″ AR10 in… Read More »

If it weren’t for double standards…

By | December 29, 2016

Ben Rhodes, Obama’s Deputy National Security Advisor, on 12/23/2016, reacting to Donald Trump’s commentary on the US allowing United Nations Security Council Resolution 2334 to pass: “On the president-elect, the first thing I’d just say is that there’s one president at a time. President Obama is the president of the United States until Jan. 20,… Read More »
