“Why Would You Want Empathy?”

At the risk of trivialising the previous week of thankfully ebbed unrest in this country, I’m reminded of a bit in Malcolm In The Middle. Reese, the eldest and most rampantly antisocial sibling, is sent to cookery class as punishment … Continue reading

Amusing Search Terms

Book Signings, Embarrassment and the Consolidation of Every Fictional Construct Into One Glorious Paean to Human Imagination.
