I got you — Once in a while, while on the toity, I can’t help but wonder, “What would I do if I couldn't clean up after myself? Like, “down there?” And then I think of possible reasons that might hinder me from taking care of business after doing my business. For example, a…

And I’ll be a hell of a lot fairer than the system here — So, yesterday I published an article stating that I was going to elevate my own stories as I’m tired of waiting on some random nimrod to figure out that writers write and everyone else spews content. Not gonna happen so fuck boosting. I originally named my new endeavor “Assist,” but…

I’m down with boosting men’s egos, and my own — What the hell? I mean why not elevate the male ego, right? Everyone needs a BOOST now and again, wouldn’t you agree? I was inspired to write this piece after skimming a turdsicle that another reader commented on. …

In case more than three people want to see it — You guys know that aside from “improving” or “increasing” something, the word “boost” means to steal, yeah? Of course, you do. Some of you are really smart. Interesting that this is the word used by Medium to indicate the stories they “promote.” …

From potential “triggers” to heavy-handed disclaimers, what’s left to write about? — As I begin this story, I have to wonder if I need to address that the following material might “trigger” someone’s fragile emotional and mental state or, heaven forbid, be perceived as offensive. In nearly every other blog post, story, or even, TV series that I set eyes on these…

It’s the scene where her hunky boss, Michael Nouri, takes her on a dinner date as he…

Ergo, I’m sharing my first screenshot here, ever — Geez. When I wrote my story about the boss of this place, which I’ve conveniently linked to below, I really thought it would take off. I don’t mean rocket me to Medium stardom or anything like that but for shit’s sake, 300 claps? And, three comments? Even in my poopiest…

Part 1: He’s into Ikigai, a Japanese concept that means “reason for being” — Hello, fellow writers and readers. As I am constantly trying to evolve and “grow” as a human being and a writer, I decided to launch a short series of stories about Tony Stubblebine, the guy who heads up this place, not just for your edification, but for mine, as well. …

If you need a special day to tell Mom and Dad you love them, you probably don’t — No doubt, this story will irritate or even piss some people off (those dwindling few who Medium will let see it) but, tough titty. My late mother was never one for sentiment of any sort. You might say she had a bit of bark on her. That’s not to say…
