This is my first post, don't expect pulitzer prize winning dreck just yet. I've set this up as a soapbox from which I can rant in full paragraphs without irritating my facebook audience, or offending the more delicate flowers who frequent my profile.

I may as well give some biographical details. I'm currently an unemployed ex-student with academic PTSD, living in Victoria, BC. I'm old enough. My academic focus has been on labour, environment, and business history. I've also had experience with aboriginal history, cultural history, and have a shameful fascination with medieval history. The rest of my life has been devoted to hiking, dreaming, drinking, and laughing at the expense of everything else.

I am a cynic, but I detest this quality in others.

You can expect unsolicited opinions on forestry and labour troubles, defense of lowbrow culture and conservatism, and discussion on topics like the ethics of cannibalism and people I have Issues with.

What you can't expect is anything resembling a coherent essay, narrative, or a basic respect for English grammar.

Thanks for reading, I look forward to disappointing you all.
