What is Hopequesting

You’re not doomscrolling, you’re hopequesting.  You need those tiny pieces of joy from seeing friends and strangers share their art, their good news, their wacky unique selves.  We need light to live.  And we find it in each otherAaron Corwin As the quote spells out, it's the opposite of a popular pasttime, Doomscrolling.

Who Remembers It’s Happy Bunny?

As of late, memes have become a normal part of communication between friends, strangers, and dare I say enemies. Social Media and Smartphones make it possible for people to communicate this way. However, memes were here way before cellphones were able to send and receive multimedia messages. That's what makes imgur's post funny to me.... Continue Reading →

Don’t Forget About Dad’s Hospital Bag

Since Dads aren't the focal point of labor and delivery, it's very easy to forget to prep them for the big day. There's plenty of articles and books about "Mom Essentials" and "Do's and Don'ts for Newborns". Fathers are briefly mentioned or glossed over. To be fair, they aren't delivering the baby and have the... Continue Reading →

From Love On Stage To Ready To Love

Who remembers the beautiful 40+ year old Aries from Love On Stage? Without getting to messy, she was the only one at the time whose suitor didn't seem interested in getting to know her. Her verbally combative online dates with him tested how far she'd come. Determined to stay true to her growth, Aries stood... Continue Reading →

That Chick Angel’s Mommy Confessions Podcast

Rather than wishing this particular task was overwith already, I have a productive distractor to keep me on task. That probably... Continue Reading →

Realtime Anime Spoilers Are Hard To Avoid

Last Sunday afternoon, I watched the 72 min ( Actually 52 min) Demon Slayer Season Finale. Fans of the series know that Swordsmith Village Arc consisted of 11 Episodes. Fans were promised over 70 min of animation for the premiere and finale, but both were barely an hour. Plus, some of that initial screentime rehashed... Continue Reading →

Juneteenth Is A Patriotic Holiday

Remember when I said Juneteenth isn't associated with Patriotic Colors. Turns out I was wrong. In fact, the Juneteenth Flag is red, white, and blue. Yet, Juneteenth marketing looks like manufactures displayed Kwanzaa decorations too early. Why does this matter? In the United States, May thru September is full of remembrance holidays that our tied... Continue Reading →
