It’s no secret I have come to love the sub-genre of reality dating shows about new ways of dating in the social media era. I’ve watched every single episode of Love is Blind including the international versions as well as the matching shows that range from religious matching to cultural affinities and disabilities. I am […]

The specifics of it aren’t important, the fact of the matter is that it’s been “one thing after another” for me. I bet you know the feeling. I felt grateful be enjoying a lower friction global homo cosmopolitanism for the night. I need something be smooth brained for a little bit. I got middle rent […]
My immune system must be reacting to something, be it travel and environmental factors or perhaps a bug I caught, so I’m in bed and trying to keep my body happy. That means catching up on a few Love is Blind seasons. As the American seasons get worse and worse, the international editions offer up […]

Day 829 and Parasocial
As you may have seen in past posts, I am a fan of reality television. I believe it shows us a lot about popular culture and the human dramas that resonate this us. There is something about being let into someone else’s life that is perhaps too titillating to resist. If you watch you will […]

Day 485 and Reality Shows
I’ve been watching Netflix’s reality dating shows this past week. I’m absolutely obsessed with the Nick and Vanessa Lachey properties in which twenty and thirty somethings do preposterous social experiments because they want to be married that badly.

Alas the weather has been very dramatic this week with strong downpours, gusty winds, and flash flooding. The city I’m in is rapidly becoming a major hub but still has […]

Day 1720 and I Am OK To Go
I love Carl Sagan’s Contact. I first read the book in my middle school years and was allowed to watch the movie starring Jodie Foster despite having a very limited “screen time” diet. As I got older I was allowed to watch edifying science fiction and book adaption only if I had read the source […]
Americans are big fans of private property; or so our reputation says. But we’ve got a lot of exceptions, rules and regulations how we exercise our rights in that regard. From zoning laws to bodily sovereignty, restrictions on what you can do with your “stuff” really runs the gamut in America. I refused to join […]

Day 1527 and Wayback Machine
I just finished watching the 8th season of Netflix’s mega reality TV hit Love is Blind. It feels as if they produce a new America version every quarter but if that’s not enough content for you there are spinoffs in Sweden, Japan, Mexico, the United Kingdom and Argentina. They shoot them roughly a year ahead […]
