Resign Senator Ron Johnson & Congressman Fitzgerald
Today, insurrectionist stormed the U.S. Capitol and forced the Vice President and the 535 members of the U.S. House and U.S. Senate to hault a joint session of Congress. The coup attempt was fueled by baseless calls to overturn the lawful election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as President and Vice President. President Trump encouraged the insurrectionists. Sen. Ron Johnson has encouraged, supported, and defended President Trump and his baseless election claims.
Resign Senator Ron Johnson. […]

Lack of Female Representation in Marvel Battle Lines
Representation matters.
I recently downloaded and played Marvel Battle Lines, a mobile game mixing tic-tac-toe with cards depicting Marvel characters. Battle Lines is free-to-play, addicting for a time, and contains solid character art. I played this game nonstop for a month.
At first I didn’t notice the lack of female representation.

Books 2018
When compiling Books 2018 I often felt I forgot something. ‘I didn’t read any fiction in 2018? I only read one non-fiction book? Clearly, that must be wrong.’ Nope, this is the list of what I read.
…mostly.

Movies 2018
I have been summarizing the movies I watched from the past year for eight years. Movies 2018 has the most movies of any of them. Partially, this resulted from watching a handful of films via YouTube playlists. (The quality was fitting the medium.) Yet Movies 2018 also has a excellent slate of trips to the cinema.
Want action? Mission: Impossible: Fallout is bone breakingly good. Want to be scared? A Quiet Place will having you wishing you could scream in terror. Want to know what was the best movie I watched in 2018? You’ll just have to read on…

Movies 2017 #TBT
The posting of Movies 2017 was planned for this time in 2018, however, my goals were too ambitious, and I forgot my focus. The annual movies of the year list is simply a way to remember and share what I watched throughout the year. And if they were any good.
Well, better late than never.
Thankfully 2017’s movies were high on ambition that succeeded. Though I would not have been so bullish after the first movie of the year.

Top Songs 2018
Top Songs 2018. The eighth annual listing of top music for the year. Kesha’s wonderful album Rainbow is the gem here: listen to it. The rest have been whipped, beaten, folded, baked, layered, and piped into a beautiful musical cake worthy of a great British bakeoff.
Or Spotify if that’s your preference (not complete).

Top Songs 2013 #TBT
Top Songs 2013, the third annual list of top songs of the year, to date is my most listened to Top Songs list. 2013 is not blessed with a lot of songs that jump out as epic, but nearly to a song I’ll listen to them whenever they come on.
