Writer

For the last five years I have been in flux. It began when, after 30 years around Jehovah’s Witnesses, my faith shattered and I became a freethinker, humanist and secular Buddhist. I reprogrammed myself, or more accurately, re-educated myself. I studied more broad than deep. My goal wasn’t to become [...]

I wish the iPhone supported Bluetooth keyboards

I have long dreamed of using the iPhone as a blogging device and I do, but only in the most trivial of ways. I post pictures and tweets and things like that, not thoughtful writing.
The reason is simple. I mostly like the little virtual keyboard on the iPhone, but not enough to type [...]

The Long Dark Night of the Soul

I’ve been trying to sleep for the last hour and a half.  It’s about 3:30 in the morning.  I fell asleep around 8:30 tonight, according to Esther.  I don’t remember, precisely. 
I got a letter from my grandmother today wondering if I was OK.  She hasn’t heard from me in a while and she is [...]

Potluck

Yesterday I started the following blog entry…
Some f***ing motherf***er made caffeinated coffee in the decaf pot yesterday at work. I know this because a) the coffee tasted better than usual and b) my head feels like 1000 jackbooted thugs are holding marching drills on the backs of my eyeballs. I wish I could [...]

These are some of the actual problems with the FISA legislation, the nuts and bolts, as broken down by Ars Technica:

7 Years

WARNING: Naval-gazing post ahead…
The last few days I have been going through all my blog entries here at RyanSutter.net, beginning at the beginning with my first post in 2001. Apparently March 27 marked the 7 year anniversary of my online journaling but I hadn’t thought to commemorate the anniversary. Today I will do [...]

Just saw a commercial for some company that claims to speed up your PC. The PC’s in the commercial, all Macs. The software? Windows only. #

NaNoWriMo and other thoughts….
