It’s back! It’s time to continue musing. What have I been up to over the past two weeks? Dreams Where do I begin with this one?! There was the raunchy BDSM dream, involving swings and cuffs… but enough of that. I had an odd, and somewhat distressing dream about being back at an old workplace, […]
I wonder how many times in online history that the demand upon someone to stop posting or commenting on any given subject has actually worked? For starters, the comment I left on YouTube was on a Star Trek video – the comments did get political but the original material was on Captain Picard’s best, most […]
I recently became aware (via Twitter, where else?) of an article in The Telegraph, where one Camilla Tominey criticises grown men who play video games. Apparently adverts for the Nintendo Switch featuring adult gamers are ‘patronizing’. According to Tominey, the only adults who game won’t be found riding the Tube on their way to work. […]
I’ve already shared this post once, via the Coalition site, but it’s too powerful and too important a message not to share via this site. Over on the Coalition I had this to say about the new abortion law passed in Texas: The southern US State of Texas isn’t exactly a beacon of freedoms and […]
Well, it’s happened. Something astonishing, brilliant and exciting and unexpected and I’m super-pumped! On the 9th of August I received an offer letter from Jumpmaster Press, asking if I wanted to pursue a contract to publish The Awakening. Naturally I said yes! A few weeks later I received a contract, in effect a publishing agreement, […]
We come to it at last. This is the end, the final test of steel and zeal. Welcome to the grand finale of The Blogger Games! Before diving into the final battle for medals, I wanted to thank Paul for his creativity and his fun ideas. These quizzes are a means of bringing people together […]
Howdy! … and I just can’t hide it! The Death of Wine It had to be on Friday the 13th that a tremendous travesty took place. I was carrying home a bottle of wine, bottles of lemonade and cola, and some cans of beer. The handles on the plastic bag gave out on me about […]
Well, for those of you who have an interest in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and who have been following the intense rumours around the multi-verse notion, the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer finally answers some questions, though as is to be expected from a teaser trailer, a great many new questions have been raised. Just […]
David Tee has addressed at some length a discussion we have been having on the subject of abortion and teenage pregnancy. Let’s take a look at his more detailed response and see if he makes a reasonable case for his position. David’s text shall be in purple. Where David has quoted me, I’ll place that […]
Oh praise Meerkats! Oh wow… oh… wow. Meerkovia claimed its first ever medal of the Games by taking a silver! The athletes are spared the wrath of the merciless press for a week! Yes, that’s right, they are instead celebrated! But, the competition is not over and we’re on to Week 4. Can Meerkovia climb […]
In the not so distant future, I will have been blogging at Meerkat Musings for TEN years. That's sort of scary. I never set out to reach a milestone like that, but ten years on, Meerkat Musings feels like my home-on-the-web, so to speak. #BloggingCommunity
Now, this I find difficult. Of those I have tried, which admittedly is not many, I am rather fond of McDonald's fries, though Burger King's have grown on me.
Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind. My immediate first thought when I read this prompt, was ‘I have no idea what I’m thinking’. I read this prompt soon after I woke up.
