Icarus Anne Riley - Four Blogs To Say It All

I have four (4) blogs. Icarus Rants The root of all expression. I have a lot of passion. Mostly, I'm passionate about trying to get people to use their damn brains. I cover anything and everything, and there are even some just plain fun things like Musical Monday and Fictional Friday.  Theological Thursday got it's own blog - (hint: see next item) Church of the Ignorant Fool I rant about human stupidity and how it blurs together with religion. I grew up Christian, and never really stopped being Christian, although I don't practice any of the dogma or rituals of the established branches. I also rant about other religions. Sometimes I also sneak in a bit of philosophy and my Bigger Picture Than You Can Imagine view of things. I Tell You - You Decide If You Care That's the one you are reading now. I need to clean it up a bit. It's supposed to be light-hearted, but a few rants slipped in when I was more angry that attentive. Eating Your Brain...

Hero Forge - Awesome Custom Action Figures

OMG, I could totally waste hours - and hundreds of dollars - at Hero Forge creating custom tabletop minis. This is 3D printing meets gamer wet dreams. You can do durable plastic (especially if you want it really 4" action figure size), or high detail plastic (for painting just right), or steel or bronze.  (Seriously, your own custom bronze statue!) And you can make your human/alien hybrid look just so. And save it for later, when you get that next paycheck.  I could totally see myself building a collection at about one per month. And then totally see what your character might look like as a buff cat girl. OMG, yeah, I could spend a bloody fortune in no time.

Mecki the Hedgehog

We've got Mickey the Mouse, and Smokey the Bear and The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, so why not Mecki the Hedgehog (who, apparently, might actually pre-date the lot of those pretenders).

Secretary of State - Learn your voting rights

Voting is a right that must be constantly paid for in blood.  Or something like that. In the United States, the Government is Of The People, By The People, For the People.  That means You, Me, and yes, even Donald Trump. The "gummit" is not the goddamn enemy, as long as you get off your ass and be part of it.  The corportist / fascist If you live in Washington, then use the legally mandated machinery of government that tells you how to vote.  I guarantee you some rich elitist asshole like Tim Eyman has read all the rules and laws, and is using them to kick your ass around.  Your best defense is to read the same rules, and fight back by knowing your rights, before these assholes strip you of your rights.
