“I see a lot of white guys making Korean food, and I’ll be honest, it pisses the shit out of me, because it’s everywhere now: kimchi this, kimchi that. I’m like, ‘You weren’t ostracized in elementary school because everyone thought, when they visited your house, it smelled like garbage.’ They didn’t have to endure emotional hardship, and now it’s cool.” — Chang, Ugly Delicious "Fried Chicken"

Theatre - World Theatre Day 2018
Writer, playwright, journalist
We can imagine.
The tribe launches small stones to bring down birds from the air, when a gigantic mammoth
bursts in on the scene and ROARS –and at the same time, a tiny human ROARS like the
mammoth. Then, everyone runs away...

The work as they determined near enough, was informed as “strictly voluntary”. But any able man o’er woman who declined the voluntary work w’re added to a rolls the guards kept on their person for the rest o’ the week. Those persons if were determined to have caused breaks in the peace or disturbing those most restful would have been subject of the magistrate’s harshest penalty.

Politics - Student's March
Politics - Student's March
Explain to me what is today, because this is the only thing I can see:
Thousands, thousands and thousands of students who rose up in protest.
Maybe a million. Maybe millions.
Students, teenagers, CHILDREN. Protesting their right to live. To draw attention to the fact that adults have failed them. Adults have failed them again, and again, for 19 years. Since a fateful day in April, 1999, when 13 people died and Americans did nothing.
The pattern repeats itself. Over and over, until Sandy Hook. 20 children are shot and die. Their ages are between 6 and 7.
America does nothing.
Stoneman Douglas literally one month ago. Another 17 students are shot dead, another 17 wounded. In the face of despair, and the agony of what they shared, those same teenagers now are demanding MORE. They are rising up, they are angry and RIGHTLY so.
They have been failed, and they recognize it. You have a country where a dude tried to blow up his shoes and now we all check our shoes before we go on an airplane. But the response to a gun in a school was to arm every teacher.
No one believes it. The NRA has become an organization lobby for the profit of itself and to maintain its stranglehold grip on power by any means necessary.
Including sacrificing children.

Politics - Gun Control
Politics - Gun Control
The opposition I see all the time to the term 'gun control' is split into two categories. There is the irrational, which is not worth engaging in because it has no recourse based on reason. And there is the rationale that sits in a position whereby the imagination has not yet seen a path forward on gun control. Whether wilful, or ignorant, or both, is not what I am interested in expanding upon here.
Instead, here is a straightforward proposal about what reasonable gun control could look like, based on a handful of other examples in other nations.
