Day: May 11, 2026

I don’t know what I want to write beyond this upcoming Justice Engine and the blog I post daily. I used to have so many many many many ideas in my idea archive and now it feels like the archive burned down. I don’t have any real thoughts on what I want to do moving forward. I have this immense fantasy world and history that I was trying to build, but I shelved it. I had a number of Shadowrun novels I planned to write (one is mostly done) but the company owes me a ton of cash, so after I finish this next project, I’m out.

So where does that leave me? I don’t know. I mentioned several posts back that it might be the end of the writing. I might just need a larger break to recharge and rediscover a passion for stories. The archive is empty. It is time to refill that old thing.

Some Thoughts:

1. Absolutely Bonkers Headline of the Day: “Man charged in White House correspondents’ dinner attack pleads not guilty” My guy, we saw the tape. You’re not gonna pull a Shaggy on us. Wait.. Okay… Upon further inspection, maybe it wasn’t you. I mean it was you that ran through that checkpoint, but you plead “not guilty on Monday to charges that he attempted to kill President Donald Trump and fired a shotgun at a Secret Service officer who tried to stop the attack.” So, yeah. We might have screwed up the charges here at the governmental level. I am not surprised.
2. Haven’t done things I think I think for a while… maybe tomorrow.
3. Haven’t checked in on marble league either.
4. I did watch the end of Daredevil and it reintroduced one of my favorite couples–Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. I look forward to what comes from that.
5. I also heavily expect Spiderman to appear in the new Punisher One Shot that comes out on the 12th, with his new film coming out on the 31st and it featuring Punisher. So many questions on how they’re going to integrate the larger NYC Hero world…

Everyone says they have a crazy ex. I actually do. Crazy like announcing she is going to throw a fit in the middle of campus after a college graduation because she doesn’t feel the way she wants to be feeling, which is instantly my fault and responsibility. The best choice I made in my life was getting married again. That only happened because I made a very very smart choice to get divorced in the first place. Man, she was going to kill me–either directly or indirectly. The level of stress and loss of hope such a sad and empty person can produce is off the charts. What bothers me most is how much of that she transfers to our kids and how little they seem to be able to avoid it.

I cannot do anything about that, because I refuse to be the person who bad mouths her. With her latest eruption, she’s doing that for herself. In a public setting. With full assurance that everyone around her supports it because she is right and I am the evil of this world. Yet, I am not evil. Instead, I remain the person who treats my kids like men and tries my best to prepare them for a world where they will not be babied and will not be able to blame others for the things that go wrong in their lives. Blame doesn’t solve problems. It just makes you feel better about yourslef as not being the one responsible… especially when you are.

Some Thoughts:

1. Absolutely Bonkers Headline of the Day: “Cameras Caught Caitlin Clark’s Savage Message to Wings Player Trying to Defend Her” For perspective, Clark lost that game and shot 7-18 with 5 turnovers. She’s still considered an early favorite for MVP… What are we even doing? I get wanting “our chosen one” to win, but lets not bury the fact that she is playing out of position and is most likely better off as an off-ball shooter with a slasher PG running the flow.
