Well, this is blog thing is working like a charm, isn't it...

... NOT.

Or maybe I just haven't found my stride or something.

But really, I write better in response to some other person's statement so it's more like a conversation. I post all the time, just not HERE. *sigh*

Anyhow, I got a new case for my computer for Christmas. Yay! The power supply was going out on my old one. Even with all the same old insides it's like I got a whole brand new computer.

The fans are quiet, too.

And although I haven't been writing, I have been working on plots and stories, thinking about them and taking notes a bit.

Perhaps I should go back to the idea of posting about my writing progress here. Granted, that requires that I *make* progress.

Well, like I said, the new fans are quiet so I think I'll bring up my word processor and leave the computer on and ready to go in the morning.

Wish me luck! (Or wish me perseverance, or something else actually useful. LOL.)

The standby power function on windows and laptops are nice for leaving the computer on and then getting it working as fast as possible.

Ready to go in the morning but with less power use ; )

It's Not Projection

Take the case of "fascism". When you can see clear as day that the person who is accusing you of fascism is a fascist, they aren't projecting. They're talking about something ELSE.

The government is supposed to control every part of your life. The government is supposed to make you moral and good and reflect "justice". The government is supposed to do this by picking winners from the good people and losers from the bad people. The government is supposed to control the way people do business, how businesses (and farmers) function and what they produce. And people should be made to cooperate with this control because they are part of society and society is dependent on everyone being in compliance. This is simply the Truth. It's how the world works and how the world is supposed to work. The Socialist Nationalism,

What You Know That Isn't So

  The saying goes like this, It's not what you *don't* know that is going to trip you up, it's what you know that isn't so. I believe that the first lady might possibly have been feigning helplessness, just a little bit.  She already had concept art and visuals, so I think she'll be okay.   But someone might truly be so new that they know nothing about science fiction as a genre or how it works in the world.  That person, the truly "new" person, might not realize that the second lady, no matter how assured she seems to be that she's passing on vital Wisdom, is wrong. So lets unwrap her backpack a little (to steal a metaphor). Stories about space pirates are Space Opera, generally.  "Soft" science in science fiction usually refers to sociology or psychology, social "science".  A story about space pirates might be "soft".  But that's picking nits.  The first big boo-boo is this: "not as popular *because* it is women
