    Shooting from the hip. The Puppet Master remains unchallenged. Murder is his modus operandi. A sociopath squirms because murder is over the top. A psychotic squirms but he likes what he sees. The criminally insane do not squirm at anything. The criminally insane have no road to anywhere. Murder is


  2. Tim Barrus

    She was a source. I cannot disclose her name or where she worked. She is a serious person. You do not have to believe me. She called because she had some new stuff to show off. This was a ruse. She wanted me to know about real power. It wasn’t

    I worked in SPED for many years. The hard part was during the AIDS crisis era. Mainly I worked with what is termed: Boys At Risk. No one ever said adolescent boys with HIV. No one ever said adolescent boys with AIDS. But there we were. Rule #1: Throw out


  4. GENOCIDE IS BACK

    Deportations. Cattle cars. Soldiers on the streets. It’s an old playbook. And it is happening again. In our faces. But Americans do nothing. Americans are a bunch of pussy ass babies. I wrote the book, GENOCIDE and everything in that book has come true. The ending of the book is


  5. Tim Barrus: Ezra’s Abundance

    I am a communist. I do not understand what this term – abundance – means. How is it politik. What does it translate into. I do understand the politik of economic redistribution. Income inequality. Corruption. The rich are afraid that everyone wants to rip them off and steal their stuff.


  6. Tim Barrus: The Great Highway

    I am a communist. I lived in SF for decades. I like the no cars paradigm. I lived in a hole in the Tenderloin. I’m poor. Looking at the photography that goes with this piece, startled me. I was working in a group home for neurodivergent autistic children. I had


  7. Extinction Event

    I am a communist. The whole Let’s Have More Babies fetish is a hay ride I cannot jump on. Babies in poverty is so unfair. We are worth more than that. Why is slavery always the answer. Just telling me that humanity will rot doesn’t make it through the filters


  8. Tim Barrus New York Times

    Take notes. I love the shooting from the hip style of writing. I have never understood why Americans cannot fight back hard. The convicted felon spits in Washington, DC’s face. That statement alone will be too strong for the comments police. The NYT is denigrating what they, themselves, have become.


  9. Tim Barrus: Why Can’t You Act Your Age

    Take notes. I’m old and ruined. I drive a dirt bike. Fixed for Road Trips. I am autistic. “He’s too old to ride a dirt bike.” Ghosting is easy. My policy is to only know young people. Anyone can talk the talk. Walking the walk is different. And I can

    The rich get richer. The poor get floods.


  11. Tim Barrus: Naked Before Us

    The boys I was dealing with sat on folding chairs in a circle. “Okay, who is going to play Richard Hatch, and who’s going to be Amarosa.” The question was What Is Reality. What is reality on TV. Or. What does it really mean. The boys all had HIV. A

  13. A Chill in Publishingland

    https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/27/opinion/publishing-literary-antisemitism.html As Published in the NewYork Times, May 27, 2024 A Chill Has Fallen Over Jews in Publishing James Kirchick is right. Publishing finds itself between a rock and a hard place. Publishing books hasn’t been a place led by the same old, same old, fat white men for a


  14. Scratching Glass

    I do not remember writing this. But some kind soul sent it to me to remind me what an idiot I am. But some of it does hit home. It was published in the New York Times 2009. Shame on me. Back in the States, under my desk, packed in


  15. Tim Barrus: Incendiary Comments NYT

    Been there. One drove a cab. One was a maid in a hotel who never went to work because we were more fun to hang out with. The All Too Usual Question is inevitably What If Someone Gets Jealous. Someone will get jealous. I’m thinking the nuances here all have…

    Dogs are not usually on the front page of the New York Times. When they are, it’s an event.

    I knew they would go after Delta-8. The normals fuck us in the ass, and we are supposed to show appreciation for the fuck. The normals are just one species. They like milk toast. Tea and crumpets. The card game, fish. You could use the word lame, it’s okay. Just…


  19. Tim Barrus, NewYork Times

    The comment gatekeepers at the New York Times wish the lot of us could be nice. Nice is the new editorial policy. You will notice that their opinion writers always end with a happy, happy scenario. Nice is censorship. This hold on niceness will crack. Niceness makes me vomit. Americans…

    I admire Ross Douthat’s writing. It is focused and cogent. It’s not stupid. Most republicans are just stupid – Madison. A prerequisite for being a republican is an IQ of less than zero. Of course, they don’t want abortion. They wouldn’t be here.


  21. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    Put an end to this war. Make Russia pay, and pay, and pay. If we know where Putin is. Pay. and pay, and pay. I think they know where Putin is.


  22. Tim Barrus: New York Times

    I am a communist. I live in Appalachia. In this destitute, impoverished, addicted little hard-scrabble scratch on the planet, the homeless live in abandoned trailers, secret campsites, and in close proximity to dumpsters. It is harder for some of us – those of us with disabilities – to remain in


  23. Tim Barrus: New York Times

    It’s simple. Russia will eat Europe’s Lunch. I would rather be nuked than eat Putin’s shit.


  24. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    Maureen Dowd at the NYT can hit a variety of notes, some funny. Some not so funny. Everyone at the New York Times seems to hit burnout like the flash of a comet across the night sky, never to be heard from ever again. It will all make sennse to


  25. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    I am a communist. Overthrowing the rich is my shining dream on a hill. A dream of famine, carnage, and superstition. But don’t talk too much or too loudly because any portrayal of civility drowning in irrelevance will be met by throwing you into an enforced poverty and humiliation that
