The Journey to Self-Acceptance: How I Learned to Love Myself
For years, I struggled with self-doubt and insecurity, constantly comparing myself to others. I thought I wasn’t good enough, smart enough, or attractive enough. I spent so much time trying to meet external expectations and molding myself to fit in that I completely lost sight of who I truly was. But life has a way of teaching hard lessons, and it wasn’t until I reached a breaking point that I realized the most important relationship I would ever have was the one with myself. This is the story of how I began my journey toward self-acceptance and learned to love myself, flaws and all.

I Think, Therefore I Meme
Hey there! 👋😁⚡ This bunch of memes is another old collection. It was originally published way back when, before this place had a Humor Community. 👍 I have updated the lame jokes, however, so there is new jocularity here to enjoy.

The World According to Garp . Top Story - November 2024.
The World According to Garp is a film based, in a very strict sense, on the 1978 bestseller by John Irving. I dreamt it last night, so I realized this was a sign I needed to get up and write about it. Which, by the way, entailed me rewatching it after decades, a rewardingly detached, if enjoyable, experience.

National Lampoon's Vacation
National Lampoon's Vacation is one of those films, like It's a Wonderful Life, that everyone has already seen, and it in no way abuts the horror or camp exploitation genre, so my readers (all three of them) may well wonder why I would bother to write about it. In reply, I must answer that, besides the catchy theme song from Lindsey Buckingham (I at first assumed this was a woman--a weirdly dour music video on YouTube disabused me of this notion, however), the film is so infectiously entertaining and perfect NOT to make mention of it as a cinematic classic (albeit a bourgeois one) would be somewhat remiss. Also, I had a dream of Chevy Chase being unable to shut a car door, so getting up and watching it is the only thing that seemed to make sense. (Note: I do most everything, make artistic choices, and consume intellectual fodder based around dreams, almost exclusively; or, at the very least, vague intuitions.)

Halloween Craft Corner
Last October I combed the internet for the best Halloween projects in a piece for the Lifehack community called ‘Halloween Vibes to DIY for.’ Then in February I experimented with spices of dubious origins in a Humor article called ‘Pizza Everything.’

When the Meme-ing Gets Tough, the Tough Get Meme-ing!
I published a bunch of stupid memes a while back, with the intent of titillating! This stuff was originally published in the Journal Community. I decided to tweak it & migrate it over to the correct location (the Humor Community that didn't exist when it was originally conceived. 🤯)
