I do know a thing about internet trolling, as I have my own family to give the greatest credit for this, giving me lots of experience on the psychological factors, and understanding of it’s context. If you think they are different in person than on the internet – think again – as my experience with … Continue reading
Having supported him in the past, it is with great pleasure to support Mayor Marty Walsh for re-election this time around as well. Before I get to the good, I’d prefer to talk about the bad. When it came to the Boston 2024 Partnership, which would bring the 2024 Summer Olympics to Boston. I maintain my … Continue reading
It was a pleasure to meet Dylan Kelly, Chapter Leader of the Massachusetts Log Cabin Republicans at the Boston Pride Political Forum on June 7th, 2016, during Pride Week. Certainly, there is no issue to me whether someone in the LGBT community is a Democrat, Republican, Independent, etc. only so long as they take a … Continue reading
Although not remembered as a great President, I happen to think President George H. W. Bush was very much a thoughtful person who has shown himself to lead with heart, rather than strict political ideology. Growing up, my family did state distaste for him, but that was merely one of instances in which we disagreed, … Continue reading

It was only a few years ago that at a local establishment, I was called a ‘hipster.’ They always talked to me about me apparently “trying to be cool” as a reason for every motivation, suggesting I was making efforts to appear perfect, and making excuses as to why I shouldn’t be either social, or … Continue reading
For the first time in 2011, I marched with a group in the Boston Pride Parade: MassEquality. If there is one thing Boston Pride 2011 wasn’t, it would be “dry.” It was raining the entire time. I recall Charles Street being one of the worst parts of the route that day. It was great to … Continue reading
This election cycle has been the most unique so far in my lifetime, with notably Donald Trump being the Republican Party nominee, and Hillary Clinton (my candidate) succeeding in becoming the first female Presidential nominee of a major political party. As shown in the clip above, Donald Trump previously called Bernie Sanders some quite nasty … Continue reading
