A male pal confided a situation that left me bewildered, Questioning my “male only” notions. — A few weeks ago, I was confided in by a close male friend, a guy who knows I am a straight shooter, that woman who tells it like it is, who has dealt with a ton of bullshit in the workplace. I have had the stupidest, most pointless crap happen…

Almost Two Years Have Passed Since I Was Taken Down & I Have No Idea If This Story Will Be Seen or Read, Really — Why me? It’s still incredibly murky. I really don’t know, to this day, May 10, 2021. No one has “revealed” themselves fully, nor has a reason been disclosed to me, not a scrap of why dropped, though I have my ideas. Once Upon a Time Cyber alarms clang for me in February 2019, while…

They do not waste time, they are direct talkers, they do not have time for people who refuse to get with the program. Many in Gen Z have absurdly developed senses of justice — right and wrong. Thank God for Gen Z…

I Am Becoming More Numb In A Bad Way, Non Reactive, Blasé, With Every Scary Reveal — I am a rational, science oriented person. A logical thinker. I always have been. One who is the calm in a storm.

Pamela Anderson NEVER Gave Consent, Then OR Now. She Deserves A Disclaimer Giving THAT Truth At The Very Least** — In the 21st Century, awareness is vigilant for all sexual misdeeds — especially post #MeToo. Seemingly, there is an unsaid understanding, one excepting celebrity women, let alone everyday women — in Hollywood, at least.
