Tim Barrus and the New York Times
Unprepared for what is coming. It’s here. There is no tomorrow. There is only yesterday. It’s not coming for you. It has you. Every single time I write what I believe – the deviant wants to kill us all – I am kicked back into the street I came from.…

Walking has become increasingly more and more difficult. I told my bones that MRI smilies are inappropriate. The elbow crutches are a work of wonder. I am now off the dirt bike. My eyes to the sky. I know I will ride it one more time. “Fall in love with…

Rome’s senate was a wildly dangerous place to be anywhere around. Most Roman emperors ended up as murder victims. I am not sure if the word victim is appropriate. The senators were always poisoning one another. Kidnapping one another. Executing one another. Plotting against one another. Murdering one another’s relatives…

It’s all a question of risk and the odds risk plays with. Did you know that when we sit down to cards and blackjack, what we are reading is the Book of Ashes, and the room, it’s always the same game. There are only so many odds that we carry…

Kristen Soltis Anderson nails it. She knows what to ask. There is a sting. It’s just over the next horizon. Her outrage over the sex crimes – crimes the deviant denies and denies and denies and denies – is the same outrage that most people have. Obviously, these were crimes…

I admire writers who are willing to put that thing which is writing – to the test. A tsunami of power has always been on the way. And at the moment, we are all poised, hanging, breathing carefully, over some chasm at what has come before. There are few of…

I am autistic (I am suppose to say neurodivergent). What does that mean. It means I wear a mask when I am not sleeping. When you wear the mask, Other People think they are seeing the real thing. You do not want to know the real thing. Any friendliness I…

I am going to use a word you will not approve of. Because your addiction for what you think is the truth is easily misperceived. The word I am going to use is the word fetish. This is not limited to sex or sexuality alone. I would argue that the…

I loved this piece but sex is the elephant in the room. Sibling Rivalry. Is real. No more wars and trucks in bed. You have your own bed. Your dog cannot sleep in this one. No more tanks to trip over at 5am. No, your friends cannot sleep with us.…

Let’s review. The good guys have guns. The bad guys have guns. A legal gunfight. How is that even possible. I live in Appalachia in a tiny town with a lot of guns. Anything is possible. ICE’s shadow stands behind every door. We grow food. A lot of food. People,…

ABOLISH ICE I live in Appalachia. Just down the dirt road, there’s a sight impossible to miss. Knotted down to the entrails of the earth, there’s a sick soaked spot that was a mountain. We blew mountains up for coal, and we will do it again. PBS was on it.…

THE DEVIANT WILL TAKE AWAY YOUR FOOD – tim barrus Hunger has always stalked Appalachia. Food and power is not news. I live in a sea of hungry American zombies. We are supposedly the animals. ICE officers are raping women. And I am insane. I am prescient. Starvation works for…

Let’s review. I am left inside stupefaction’s plastic shell. It cracks and the tourists jump out. We would all love to frolic here. There will be a test. All tourists should be required to know exactly how much carbon footprint if you were Godzilla stomping around and drinking spritzers. What…

The celebrity machines on the march of progress. How do the people who feed this beast live with themselves. The machine is ruthless. We are the culture of ruthlessness. It has permeated every cellular structure of society. There are only two issues. What is the truth, and what is identity.…

I left porn for many of the same reasons David French articulates. He never mentions gay porn. It’s not exactly what the legal porn experts want to chew on in their fetish disguised as Blazing Swords for Seniors. What grace I see in this piece (French is a talented writer,…

Genocide Horizons Conservatives have wanted to kill us for a long time. Ask them. I do. They will put us in concentration camps. Detention means until you die. Dogs. Lights. The Sonoran desert. Go ahead, ask them. It’s not a secret. Camps are being built as I write this. They…
