The Cornell 7: Stop Fucking Doxxing People

So I need to follow up on my previous post about the Cornell 7, because apparently some people have decided that the appropriate response to this situation is to try to fucking dox Jane Doe. No. Just fucking no. That shit is disgusting. I don’t give a fuck whether you believe her. I don’t giveContinue reading “The Cornell 7: Stop Fucking Doxxing People”

The 2026 New York Governor’s Race: Where Jonathan Makeley, Bruce Blakeman, Kathy Hochul, and Jean Anglade Stand

I’ve already talked about why I’m voting for Jonathan Makeley in the 2026 New York governor’s race. I’ve talked about the Prohibition Party, I’ve talked about the issues where I agree with Makeley, and I’ve talked about the issues where I don’t. But now I want to take a step back and actually compare theContinue reading “The 2026 New York Governor’s Race: Where Jonathan Makeley, Bruce Blakeman, Kathy Hochul, and Jean Anglade Stand”

Why Drugs, Alcohol, and Tobacco Are Such a Big Issue for Me

I want to expand on my previous post about why I’m voting for Jonathan Makeley for governor of New York. Because if there is one issue in Makeley’s campaign that really stands out to me, it is this: Drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. And this isn’t just some random policy position I picked up because IContinue reading “Why Drugs, Alcohol, and Tobacco Are Such a Big Issue for Me”

Why I Am Voting for Jonathan Makeley (And Looks Like Larry Sharpe Is Out)

So, an update on something I said earlier this year about the 2026 New York gubernatorial election. I previously said I was planning on voting for Larry Sharpe. Well… looks like that isn’t happening anymore. Larry Sharpe is out of the race. His independent nominating petition was ruled invalid because New York requires 45,000 signaturesContinue reading “Why I Am Voting for Jonathan Makeley (And Looks Like Larry Sharpe Is Out)”

The Cornell 7: Why “Not All Men” Misses the Fucking Point

The Cornell 7. First, before we say anything else: OF FUCKING COURSE IT’S “NOT ALL MEN.” No fucking shit. But that is not what people are talking about. We are talking about a group of seven men who have been accused of horrific acts against a woman. We are talking about allegations of a sexualContinue reading “The Cornell 7: Why “Not All Men” Misses the Fucking Point”

When Politics Meets Reality: Netanyahu, Mamdani, the NYPD, and Trump

Benjamin Netanyahu came to New York, addressed the United Nations General Assembly, and, perhaps unsurprisingly, protests followed. Hundreds of people gathered outside the United Nations to protest Netanyahu’s appearance and Israel’s conduct in Gaza. The demonstrations included Jewish, Palestinian and other New Yorkers, along with elected officials, candidates and activists. At one demonstration on Thursday,Continue reading “When Politics Meets Reality: Netanyahu, Mamdani, the NYPD, and Trump”

I Reject the Political Spectrum

I think I have reached a point in my political evolution where I can honestly call myself an enlightened leftist. And ironically, part of that enlightenment has been realizing that I don’t really want to call myself a leftist anymore. Yeah. I know. That sounds contradictory as fuck. But hear me out. I have reachedContinue reading “I Reject the Political Spectrum”

Being Salvadoran, Being Mixed, and Learning to See the World Differently

It’s Hispanic Heritage Month. So fuck it. I’m going to talk about being Hispanic. More specifically, being Salvadoran. I don’t talk about my Hispanic heritage nearly as much as I probably should. I’ve written about plenty of things over the years—society, culture, politics, religion, morality, empathy, current events, and all sorts of other topics—but myContinue reading “Being Salvadoran, Being Mixed, and Learning to See the World Differently”

The Kirkiversary Is Not Funny

Okay, what the actual fuck is “the Kirkiversary”? Apparently, we’ve reached the point on the internet where the anniversary of someone’s murder is being turned into a fucking joke. For those who somehow haven’t encountered it, “Kirkiversary” or “Kirkversary” has been circulating online as a meme surrounding the anniversary of Charlie Kirk’s death. People haveContinue reading “The Kirkiversary Is Not Funny”

When AI Gets It Wrong, the Consequences Can Be Much Bigger Than a Bad Answer

There is a difference between asking AI to help you brainstorm a blog post and asking AI to help determine whether a foreign government is transporting nuclear-weapons material. That difference should be obvious. Unfortunately, apparently it wasn’t obvious enough. According to reporting published by CNN on September 18, 2026, the U.S. military came dangerously closeContinue reading “When AI Gets It Wrong, the Consequences Can Be Much Bigger Than a Bad Answer”
