March 20th, 2023 I’ve been thinking a lot about bumper stickers. I’ve written several times about why folks are more passionate than ever about politics. People are not more political; politics have become less about politics. I have a tremendously annoying habit of trying to understand things. When someone is telling me a story inContinue reading “Honk If You Hate Me”

Review of a Review
March 13th, 2023 Ah, reviews. They can be inconsequential; they can be essential. They can make or break a thing, or deconstruct and remake it again. However you feel about them, they’re not going away. And as much as I hate to admit it, getting a review confirms to me that something I’ve created isContinue reading “Review of a Review”
How Time Got Solid
February 9th, 2023 There is no point to writing on the internet. What does it really matter? What does it accomplish? Does anybody actually need it? Because I love doing things that nobody asked me to do, I write on the internet. I started taking it seriously in 2017, or as serious as I canContinue reading “How Time Got Solid”
Are You Still Watching?
February 8th, 2023 Let’s talk about Netflix. I’m going to take a break from my topics this month to address the announcement that they will no longer allow people to share their passwords. The reactions are what you would expect: people claim it’s a bad move, and Netflix itself will be hurt after they implementContinue reading “Are You Still Watching?”
Caption This
In my first post about Online Writing, I addressed why I do the things I do. (Tldr: I’m an idiot.) Now I want to talk about when and how. I was once a regular internet user, just like you. I would quote cringey song lyrics, use cringey language, say cringey things about my cringey feelings,Continue reading “Caption This”
SKP 2023: Online Writing & Unproduced Work
February 1st, 2023 Welcome to February. It’s just as damn cold as yesterday. It is also a brand new monthly topic on my Sleeping Kitty Productions 2023 calendar: Internet Writing & Unproduced Work. And I’m going to start with a big question: Why the hell do I do this? By that, I mean: what isContinue reading “SKP 2023: Online Writing & Unproduced Work”
Sleeping Kitty Productions 2023
December 31st, 2022 Hello there. 2023 is a big year, as far as celebrating my (lack of a) creative career goes. It marks both 10 years of publishing books (a novella called Them, on April 1st, 2013), and 20 years since I released my first EP under the name The Next Step (Tangled Cords, onContinue reading “Sleeping Kitty Productions 2023”
A.I. Yi Yi
December 17th, 2022 Exactly zero people have asked me what I think about AI, and I am indignant. This is a post about AI, written by a terribly flawed human being. Most of the responses I have seen to emerging AI technology have come from artists. I’m an artist, too, but I have always identifiedContinue reading “A.I. Yi Yi”
The Troll Toll
December 15th, 2022 The history of philosophy is a history of trolls. The 1975 is one of my favorite bands (and my absolute favorite band most days). We saw them play at The Armory last night and it was quite possibly the best show I have ever seen. Like TikTok itself, I am obsessed withContinue reading “The Troll Toll”
Leave The Light On
November 1st, 2022 I’ve been reading a lot of pieces lately about whether there is any goodness left in the world. Not just written articles; people I know (and don’t know) are wondering aloud if there is still kindness and empathy and the desire to help left anywhere. While we were out trick or treatingContinue reading “Leave The Light On”
