The Briar Patch

Marvel has the big screen on  lock. 18 movies? In 10 years, billions made and a massive story unfolding. It must have been nice for Stan the Man to see his lives work explode like it has in the last decade. Now marvel and Netflix on the other hand has been hit and miss. The first Daredevil was amazing! Some of the rest has been pretty miss… The one thing though they have done awesome though, is the villains! I am not sure, maybe it’s the character, maybe it is the actor but Marvel and Netflix are winning at villains. Jessica Jones is not for me. Don’t get me wrong Krysten Ritter nails the grumpy, drunk detective. The junkie neighbor, not super interesting. A semi famous sister, again not hooking me. It did not hook me until Kilgrave gets a lot more screen time. I am a big David Tennant fan and again he nails the role. Psycho, attempt at a good guy and back to the villain. I honestly wish the kept him alive. Would be great to see again. The second season, not nearly as interest

I was watching a roid rager moan about the Gillette commercial last night. At first I jumped to the conclusion he was just a dumb ass, then I actually listened. He had a good point, there isn’t really toxic masculinity. There is masculinity, that which makes us male. We typically are stronger. We rough house and are taught not to piss moan and cry about everything. Life gives you some hiccups and you deal with them. There is nothing wrong with that. I am willing to bet most women, whether they admit it or not want a masculine male. I assume yes women wanna feel strong and independent but I am sure they also wanna feel feminine and not the man in the relationship. This so called toxic masculinity isn’t masculinity, it is just assholes being assholes. Television isn't amazing for me at least right now. First the Walking Dead is limping on. The second half of this season I think will make or break them. If it isn't good I would say they are done, the show has gone downhill s

Let's go Federal. I am gonna start with memes that hurt people's feelings. Grow up. You see these signs, memes, shirts whatever calling for Trudeau to be hung or whatever and people getting all misty eyed about it. Ya I woudn't post them but I sure aint about to get all pissy about them. Where was the outrage for Harper when liberal supporters painted his as Hitler? I mean they were memes just the same and he was being portrayed as one of histories greatest monsters. Responsible for genocide. Social justice and all we shouldn't be attacking him like that. I have no problem posting shit about Trudeau even if it offends. I just gotta get that off my chest. Let's start with the liberal party of Canada. I can't even.... No for real I can't. I personally have seen no value in their time in power. They are the social justice party. Don't get me wrong or misquote that social justice is a good thing. All MEN (ya I said it men, meaning people in general because

Ahh that lovely time every few years when we see the worst in all people is upon us! That's right elections are coming! The brutal truth is both federally and provincially we are going to see shit get nasty. From both sides, let's not pretend anyone is innocent. This is all I am going to say on politics for awhile, at least until elections OR if something crazy happens. I really need to concentrate on actual writing. Not twitter bickering with people. So here is it my thoughts on the current federal and provincial politics. (Breaking this into 2 parts. This one is going to be just media and Alberta) First let's start with the sideliners. The media and the peanut gallery. Rebel Media OR Chicken little media. Whichever you want to call them is fine by me. It has been years now I was blocked for using common sense or not drinking the Kool-aid by Ezzie and the Rebel account. I can say I never dropped into name calling or anything like that with either, but I guess not believi

So day 13 in Mexico, I am not even going to say how it started since the prior 12 were the same. The shitty thing was it was still crazy windy. We went up to the excursion desk to check in again and again it was cancelled. They have 3 times 8 11 and 2. The 8 was cancelled and they weren't sure if our 11 would go. So I asked to cancel it, get a refund. It sucks sitting around all day waiting and being let down. So they credited the room back the trip fees. Honestly I didn't understand the whole thing they wanted to do but in the end they didn't credit the card back the money, just the room. So then we turned around and booked a second massage, which would be billed to the room and eat up the credit.... They say crediting the card takes up to 2 weeks and credit to the room is so much easier. I think the truth is they just want you to spend the money. Which I totally understand. This is a side note and I am not sure if I said it but every night guests are given a newspaper o
