Kennedy’s boss is a doctor. We didn’t know. But the fact remains that all of our leaders are doctors. All of them. Who would go to a deviant doctor. Doctor Creep Show. Who would take their healthcare to a grotesquerie. A stain upon humanity. One synonym for deviant is depravity.…

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…

The real question is: Why does the Deviant want to kill us all. My opinion. Opinion is protected speech. That statement of doom will seem to be over the top to the journalists here. They want it both ways. When are you going to learn that there are only two…

The culture wars are now civil wars. Every single writer at the New York Times is required to open with how sad it is. And we must not succumb to violence. The problem is that the New York Times itself is utterly at a loss to define what civil means.…

I WANT ACCESS
Lift yourself up by the bootstraps. The narrative of the powerful, independent (rich) white male is so yesterday. The powerful independent white male is a clown car of environmental disaster, male dominated wars and treason. We do not even know what cognitive development is. $333 is not going to change…

It does not start with cannon fire. It starts in fear. Especially the kind of fear where people are seeing the real thing, The Deviant might get caught, so double down. Transparency is their mortal enemy. MAGA has set out to kill us. I’m not supposed to articulate that. It’s…

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…

Take Notes Standardize. Regularize. Arrange. Conform. Anneal. Temper. Methodize. Sort Out. Balance. Control. These are the rapist’s tools. He applies them to a canvas, and we are that canvas. No mention here of the term rapist. This is what normalization means. It’s called cherry-picking. If we all play polite, maybe…

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/07/magazine/tilda-swinton-interview.html#permid=138113367 TILDA Take notes. Tilda Swinton gives the New York Times an edge. An edge they frequently cover up with the contradiction between the fact that no one even knows what art is, and the fact that outreach as art for the sake of art even finds its tiny way…

Tim Barrus, New York Times
Take Notes. I have to watch what I write. What are the risks of having a voice. As a writer, every time I turn around, there are new rules. There are the NYT rules of etiquette. There are the religious rules about specific words that are not allowed. All new…

Mister Potato Head
I do not look back much. It has saved my ass. I wish book publishing would stop what with the reader has to meet the writer thing. I just don’t get it. Why can’t the reader identify that thing they have for delving into what happened during your divorce. I…

Movie Stars On a Bench
My personal take on this photo has to do with class. Americans live in a Somalia of our making. The Appalachian poor have suicide rates that only keep going up. Those figures kickass Up&Up&Up&Up. Appalachia wrestles with deeply ingrained medieval poverty like no other place on earth. Social statistics for…

Writers Should Plan Their Escape Now
If I was a journalist who wrote this, I would look for a quiet place where I might hide from the Night of the Long Knives. The Night of the Brown Shirts. The Night of the Executions. The Night of the Long March. The Night of Old Suitcases. The Night…

Tim Barrus: for hiding this in the snow
I used to ask the questions. Now, Pi is asking me the questions. There is something in his voice that wants to be wanted. – tim barrus
