Should Pierce County change its name?

I think I have hit this point before, but I have spent some more time thinking about it. In case I missed something before, I have decided to revisit this one. Should Pierce County change its name?

Why religion doesn't push me towards the Democrats

I grew up in a religious family. Religion has always come off as a way to explain the unknown. Over the years, I have seen far better explanations for how everything works than some magical being. Ultimately, it seems more likely that God was a creation of man rather than the other way around.

The Gen Z Conundrum

Like I said with millennials, I think it's ridiculous to judge people based on when they were born. Named generations portray some people as vastly different than if they were born a day earlier or later. Yes, there are trends, but defining individuals by a shallow label based on the year they were born is ridiculous.

Republicans need to reinvent their party

Republicans used to stand for a small government. Mostly, this has been more talk than anything. They frequently talk about cutting spending, but they never do.

The media's treatment of Obama and Trump

After Barack Obama was elected president, we were rocked by all kinds of scandals. Obama addressed these scandals by attacking the legitimacy. He also repeatedly pushed outright lies. Obama made it clear that he didn't run because he thought he could do a good job. He ran because he was egomaniacal. He only cared about himself. Even before the scandals, he made this clear by boasting about such things as turnout for his inauguration, which in no way measures his performance.

Ability versus opportunity

Periodically, I need to just vent. I have decided to put together several posts for that very reason.

Expect this to turn out as an incomprehensible irrational rant.

2024 Olympics

The Olympics have come and gone. In this case, I'm talking about the games, not the mountain range. My thoughts about these games haven't changed too much, but there are definitely improvements since I last vented.
