I’m a teacher… and I think I’m pretty damn good at it. I know for a fact that at least a few of my former students read my blog, and I bet they’d say I’m pretty damn good too. But I wasn’t always a teacher. I’ve had a lot of other jobs. I’ve designed computer…
I took the last couple of weeks off of blogging. For one I had a dissertation chapter to finish. And second, I just wanted to do a little bit of enjoying Christmas. Now that both of those things are behind me I figured it was time to write another rant. And what better to write…
You might have noticed it’s nearing the end of the year. And like, if you didn’t notice this… well, what’s wrong with you? Anyway, a weird thing starts happening at the end of the year. Magazines start giving out the “_____ of the Year” awards. I find these fascinating in general and that’s no surprise.…
Ok… So lets say you’re really bent out of shape about the whole kneeling for the national anthem thing. I have a serious question for you. And I want you to sit down and think long and hard about it. Have you ever considered that you might be a racist? Don’t answer right away… I…
My friend and former wrestling tag team partner Donté posted a link on Facebook to an article a little while ago. Before I share the article I want to share my initial reaction. This is what I commented to Donté: “ oh for…. you’re fucking kidding me…. I mean, wow…..” that was my initial reaction.…
It is August 15th, 2017…. The President of the United States of America just equated Robert E. Lee to George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. The President of the United States of America just said that Nazis are better than people protesting Nazis because at least they had permits. This is where we live now. This…
The Bizzaro World, ©Tom Tomorrow, 2016 There’s something that has been on my mind the last couple days since I was having a conversation with Steph and I’ve been trying to figure it out. So I want to do a thought experiment and see what people’s feedback is. Ok, so Donald…
Attention… I’d just like to point out that as of 9:21AM, Eastern Daylight Time, July 2, 2017, the United States Presidential Archives now OFFICIALLY forever includes a video of the President of the United States of America in a catfight with a man with a CNN logo for a head outside of a WWE wrestling ring…
Big Trumper is Watching About two weeks before the 2016 presidential election I was talking to my mother on the phone and I said something to the effect of “I am looking forward to seeing exactly how Donald Trump will bring about the downfall of America once he wins. I remember…
Ok… That’s it. I give up. I admit it. Donald Trump is smarter than I am. He’s smarter than you are. He’s smarter than all of us. It’s not that I don’t disagree with him on policy (which I do). It’s not that I think he says stupid and/or offensive stuff pretty often (he does). It’s not that…
(This is going to be a long one… I’ve put off writing about this for a while.) So about two and a half months ago, America seemingly got really bored and decided to end itself… you know… cuz why not? At least that’s one view. Another view is that a small sect of megalomaniacal billionaires, the…
I often like to say that in current social media landscape, politics is basically just football. The specific policies and actions don’t matter anymore. You pick your team and you stick to it and anyone that opposes your team is automatically an asshole and anyone who is for your team is automatically good. Logic doesn’t matter and…
Honestly, this may be the greatest week in the history of American politics. I always find it fascinating living history. But right now, I don’t so much want to live history. I want to fast forward. I want to jump to thirty years in the future and i want to read a 2046 middle school American history…
Politicians lie from time to time. All politicians. Donald Trump lies. Hillary Clinton lies. Even the internet’s great white hope Bernie Sanders lies. They also have bad ideas. They make mistakes. Not all the time. But these things do happen. They’re human and this is just a fact of life. There are plenty of reasons…
So given the way I write and the opinions and such that I express, I don’t really expect a lot of Trump supporters to read my little blog here. That’s totally my fault. I know what I’m doing. I do have some conservative/republican readers, but they’re pretty much all of the type who are not…
