The Snark Returns: Random Musings from The GWS

SW/Web developer: ~12 years of C# (yay!) & ASP .Net MVC, Java (blargh!), Python (woot!) experience. I'm currently hitting faucets and writing for crypto to stake/invest . | I work part-time with animals. Sadly, my cerebellum and medulla oblongata aren't Einsteinian in proportion. However, I possess a Brobdingnagian vocabulary and get by with being a barbigerous logophile. I can probably write you into bed, if smashing Capitalism and Patriarchy turns you on. Kink is political!

26 Apr 2023 6 minute read 5 comments Great White Snark

Do you want to know how to be rich? Well, who the fuck doesn't, right? It seems that there are two ways to do so: Write a book of instructions/steps to follow on how to be rich and sell it to millions, if not billions, of desperate and gullible schm...

In this last weekend's episode of exercising dogs at the local kennels, a Rottweiler bit another dog through its cage. The second dog made the mistake of sticking a paw through the fence while the Rottweiler was standing in front of it and snarling....

Ivanka Trump as a Barbie doll in a MAGA Hat: Yes, I made this!

24 Apr 2023 1 minute read 0 comments Great White Snark

Today, I made a fake photo of Anna Kendrick X Ivanka Trump as Wonder Woman in a red trucker cap! (There's also a Barbie Doll version!) Why did I do this? Mainly because I could. Also, if Donald Trump made $1 million from his shoddy NFTs, why can't I...

My last post on this subject left off just before the preface to the book. In this one, I'm going to set out my thoughts thereon, as I read it. Preface This work is openly hostile to the world of neo-liberal finance and its mainstream thinking. Despi...

Down with "The Sickness"

9 Apr 2023 2 minute read 1 comment Great White Snark

Maybe there are beautiful Christian communities that are doing good things somewhere, but I seriously have my doubts, given the values that "conservative" church-goers actually have and teach their children (as opposed to the ones they claim to). Do...

Potatoes: Boil them, mash them, or put them in a stew.

If you expect the following to make any sense (or have anything to do with potatoes, for that matter), then you will be sadly disappointed. Why? Because f**k Donald Trump, that's why! May he rot in jail. Peter found road kill an excellent way to save...

Your Money or Your Life: The Tyranny of Global [Traditional] Finance (Continued)

4 Apr 2023 2 minute read 0 comments Great White Snark

Since there's clearly interest and it's worth my while to continue, this post picks up where the previous one left off. As noted, I don't necessarily agree with the opinions presented by Toussant. He makes some very strong assertions, for which I hop...

What follows is a synopsis of the book (of the same title) by Eric Toussant, first published in 1998, a book a friend suggested I read, after her reading my prior post. I can only assume that she thinks my reading it will give me something I can use...

For Life or Money: The Problem with Being Me, a Slave to the Wage

2 Apr 2023 3 minute read 0 comments Great White Snark

The key problem with me is that I have not solved my biggest problems and I likely never will. That's because I don't believe that I can, on any real level, to be honest. Life and the world has failed to kill me, and so have I. Despite my best effort...
