Hey theres been a lot of talk lately about misandry? Which aint even in my spellcheck! Hint: Misandry is the hatred of men. I had to look it up. So now that I’ve known for 5 seconds what it is I’m sure everyone is just dying for another middled aged boring straight white dudes opinion on it.
Truth is I realized a long time ago that my opinion on what its like to be a woman or another race or gay or transgender is kinda pointless. I have very little experience being those people and truly knowing what their experience is.
So…
Maybe people get angry at people who don’t let them share their experience or they get mad because people tell them their experience is not true or valid - that their experience is wrong (which is kinda silly, not to mention duuumb)
I have opinions like a tree has breezes.
Like God has sneezes
that produce little Jesus’s’s’s
and Come to find out
Down at the Market
They is full up on white dudes opinions
So please understand that my opinion is just a ghost robot farting into a tin can.
I was born and raise republican redneck but I think I got to be less of an asshole when I just started seeing other people having a similar experience as me. I lived in a lot of different places and experienced a lot of different things. In the end I just found this wildness living everywhere - Love Pain Beauty Loss - is an easy to place feel a connection. So please, everyone share your life. Share your bald human experience.
Theres always gonna be a buncha dumb asses who say stupid shit. Its like ballast or a reason to enjoy sharp refreshing drinks. Fuck em!
And when you speak of pain and BS, tell it unflinchingly. It gets through sometimes. People do change. Though arguments never worked for me. I never learned shit from them until way later. I just had a hard time being wrong in front of people. So I’d never admit to it. Oh sure later I’d have to have some terrible Hollywood epiphany while I’m hugging a special needs little black kid in an urban setting. And then I’ll tell y’all of my grand insight and understanding, which as I mentioned before is a dead flatulent android of which something eternal remains.
So truly I don’t even have a pony in this race. Does somebody win? Oh yeah thats right, the white dudes almost always win. And hey I think soon they start losing and they lose for a long time. And I don’t mean to be a negative neutrino, but old white dudes have never taken well to losing. So it should be interesting.

I wrote a story tonight but I turned it in to some contest. Its the first thing I’ve ever submitted for anything. Of course I wrote it in like 40 minutes and it probably reads like a short story turned in by a 5th grader.
So in lieu of a story I give you this picture or Dave Parker aka “The Cobra” The right fielder for the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 70’s. The Cobra hit the longest homerun in baseball history when one of his blasts landed on a passing train that traveled 140 miles to Lake Erie.
