I started Writing Again on Medium

Hola folks,

Its been a while, and as expected a lot of life changes.

The long and short of it is that I am writing again on Medium. I needed a new start and  a new environment. I’d love both your readership and support over   on Medium: https://medium.com/epigrammatic

The writing is a lot more straightforward and a lot less satirical. But always half way decent 🙂

As America Self-Immolates … MrMaryFiddles…

This was written on April 23rd, 2017, perhaps one of the last Earth Days. This  frail memoir covers a particular train of thought fraught with an overindulgence of honesty  and  clear-thinking. I must remind whoever reads these words, that honesty and clear-thinking are in stark contrast to the modus operandi of my time. Despite ours being a global community, just below the surface, unfortunately…

Another article from my other blog, co-authored by yours truly

America Today: Islamophobia, Anti-Immigrant Sentiment and an Archaic System || Feb 13, 2017

My more serious writing and side blog,

In light of recent events, I wont be shutting this Blog down

A few months ago, I was close to done writing on ASpoonfulOfSuga. Since that time Donald J Trump has become President-Elect hate crimes are up 115% in my beloved NYC, and if current estimates are any indication there have been approximately 900 hate crimes committed since President Elect Trump won  the electoral college vote. If overt racism and xenophobia where a train, then this historic subway…

A Few More Posts Then I’m calling it Quits on ASpoonFulOfSuga

There are a few more posts I want to write, loose ends that need tying. Afterwards all writing on this blog will be suspended. That isn’t to say of course that I won’t be blogging or vlogging or podcasting. I have many ideas and things to do and write about and will do so but for now I want to tie up some loose ends. Tell me what loose end/post/or idea would you like to see tied up or completed?…

Autobiographical Moments: Vaginas and Catholic School Part 1

After years of therapy, I can share  without the horrid flashbacks, my experiences at a post-Vatican II catholic elementary school run by nuns. Years would pass before realizing how deep this torment buried itself into the depths of my psyche. In my school faculty members unmarried to Christ fell into one of two categories. On the one hand, you had the group comprised of widows or unmarried women…

Satire || Harvard Researchers Reveal The Real Reason Why

Certain philosophers would have you believe that science at best is an integrated, and reconstituted distillation of all the current knowledge a (much like Campbell’s condensed Tomato soup: similarly mundane and uninteresting). A diminutive subset of these natural thinkers has even dared  to characterize our universe as one with an infinite number of happenings outside the current domain of…

Satire || Three Beautiful Stories That Prove There’s More to Life than Having Erections (NSFW)

Warning: This article contains sorta nude images and may be inappropriate for work. In what is clearly a case of art imitating the reality of imitation, local Chicago area artist ‘RiverCat, Inc’ has created what some are calling a counterculture masterwork of criticism. The main rumor going around the gallery is that social media was the central inspiration for this installation. About three…

Satire || This Super Tuesday Second Eastern European Village Enters Race to Provide Trump with new Wife

As the Super Tuesday Sun starts its descent over the horizon, people worldwide are wondering if America will complete the metamorphosis it started when the election of Barack Obama to the seat of President catalyzed an outpouring of racist, xenophobic, and ultra-conservative sentiment. After a contentious seven-year dormancy rife with ever increasing anti-immigration stances, racial tension,…

Satire || That Bitch Priya … Part 1

Astor Place, NYC. – She instructed me to call her Jaya when we first met on the campus of my Alma Mater two years prior. (Her full name would take up too much space on this short post.) The Starbucks at Astor Place where we rendezvoused is quiet for a Friday afternoon, especially since none of Jaya’s male cousins or younger brothers are crowding around our conversation like flies around the…

I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. -William Faulkner, Nobel Prize Banquet Speech If you’ve been a reader of this blog, you might have noticed that I’m not a fan of divulging much personal information.…

Social Media. Tyranny. And the Genius of the Crowd

‘Tyranny is the deliberate removal of nuance’ Albert Maysles   Second on a short list of phrases that have coerced me into a lazy belief in Divinity has been the ‘genius of the crowd’. While crowds have always been dangerous, they still cannot compete with the finality of police brutality, reigning supreme atop my list forth the thirty-fourth year in a row. Moving forward, imagine throngs of…

The Top 3 Things Social Media Readers will be off put by if They can Think Critically (1)

The critical importance of honest journalism and a free flowing, respectful national conversation needs to be had in our country. But it is being buried as collateral damage in a war whose battles include political correctness and ideological orthodoxy. ~ Juan Williams As a child born in an era before the Internet, I remember it  being touted as the thing that would cut across cultural,…

Satire || Girlfriend Will Begrudging Share Candy with Her Boyfriend On Valentine’s

CAMBRIDGE, MASS – With already three years tenure under her belt with boyfriend Mark Brooks, I ask ‘Katie’ what’s left to be excited about this coming Valentine’s Day, days away? If her answer could be shortened for brevity’s sake to a single word, it’d be in my estimation: validation. But in her own words: “All we want is for your world to revolve around us for a day.” The ensuing silence stings…

Satire: Dating Difficulties Abound for Local Area Feminist

PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN – If one word local area feminist Ada Cunningham says describes her and how she’s been feeling as of late, it would be distraught.  This past Thursday night after having waved five separate men over to her table at the local watering hole and eatery to fill out her Consent to Maybe Initiate A Conversation Form (CMIC), Ada couldn’t understand why no one wanted to indulge her.…
