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!

Not that I want to be that arsehole son who's thirty-five and still lives with his parents in a house that's not his home (a fact from which they take joy in reminding me), but unfortunate circumstances have made me That Guy. Consequently, my parents...

TW: Sexual Themes, Violence, Alcohol and Drug Abuse Madly went the women, their minds empty of anything except the heat, the night and the predrinks they'd already imbibed. Their hair swung wildly, full and sensuous as they gyrated to the beat. In th...

Fractures #02: The Death of E.B. Jarvis

5 Jul 2021 3 minute read 0 comments Great White Snark

Scuffed blue shoes shuffled along rough red bricks. Cracks and fissures branched off like hairs in a dust storm. These are the shapes of bad luck and bets lost. Each careful step contains a whimper of fear, the uncurling fist in the stomach that spea...

29 Jun 2021 1 minute read 0 comments Great White Snark

Some people on Fet really do amaze me. They amaze me by the fact that despite being there longer than I, they have learned so little from the community, from people of different ethnicity, income brackets and gender identities, to themselves. I canno...
