Hot: when you aren’t here I steal all the pillows and fart like a pack mule I cling desperately to the fragile skin of my #FirstWorldProblems or else run sighing into the arms of deep, dark thoughts when I don’t hear from you the Furies take wing and wrap piano wire a million times around [...]
Hot: Revisions, updates, and addendum below I am sure that you all, like myself, have been disappointed by the recent turn of events surrounding WordPress.com’s arbitrary rule enforcement process. I would like to present to you all an opportunity to “live under the articles” (p. 186), as it were. I should like to extend to [...]
Hot: Hey folks, I’m not dead. Now that’s out of the way, on to the main event. I’m quite the fan of Henry Rollins, anything he’s in I’ll watch, any interview that’s out there I’ll look into – I really dig on him. I’ve seen his spoken word twice before, once in my native state [...]
Hot: First up on this WTK is the opposite of wealth. That term is “illth” and was coined by John Ruskin as a way of giving simple voice to the concept of possessing damage, discontent, or general ill health (physically, economically, spiritually, etc).

It’s a super catchy balance of techno precision and warm pop sensibilities, wrapped [...]
I began my Ashtanga practice for reasons much less noble than what I later learned many practitioners believe: that Ashtanga is “the path of internal purification for revealing the Universal Self.” Not me. I was motivated by a strong sense of vanity and a dislike of jogging
Hot: Author’s Note: Some editing may apply to the article below. This article was originally 2 hours worth of unedited vitriol, inspired by the inordinate amount of time it takes me to remove spammers from my follower list on Twitter. (I block because I care about the health of the network.) I would like to [...]
Hot: Disclaimer-by-way-of-Prologue – I sat down and thought to myself: “Suppose I was to solicit some kind of bodily coupling through something like craigslist, in an area where these kind of services are clearly not at their peak usefulness?” This is the result of that thought process. (I may have also been letting my mind [...]
Hot: As drinks go, especially mixed drinks, I’m a big fan of traditional over fruity or “umbrella” drinks (you know, the ones that turn you into a zombie? ha ha). However, Mister Parker’s recent experiment with the recipe for a drink known as the Doctor Funk has proved to be an elixir of great potency. [...]
