Yes, though you wouldn’t know it from the recent posts, this site is still active and will hopefully be filled with lots of new things — fiction even — as soon as the dust from the elections settle.
Tonight I’ll be live blogging the first presidential debate at Lycanthropia and the usual gang (join us) will be discussing it in […]

Earlier this year, Neocon apologist Christopher Hitchens, a defender of the practice of waterboarding, was challenged to undergo the experience himself.

A couple of quick thoughts, because at the moment I don’t have the time for or inclination toward pondering, but I cannot allow the Fourth of July to pass without one or two political comments.

Picture 3 a.m. under a full moon. The city has been washed clean by rain that ended earlier, leaving in its wake a howling wind that propels ragged cloud remnants across the night sky, turning the moonlight off and on like a Valium afflicted neon sign.
