My own nature
A friend who has gone thought long term single-Dom greater thn my own mentioned that people thought she was so independent, but that was not get true nature. She just had to be a certain way to survive bing alone. I have not had someone I cared about commit to me in so many years that I have to wonder what my actual nature is. It’s hard to imagine sharing my life with anyone at this point,...

I have been doing something very similar to this to take pressure off my back.
Learn to Dance
So far so good today:
I have been trying to have more a focus on dance in the way I live and eat and take care of myself, so I have been recent;y asking myself, “What does this have to do with dance?” before I have ice cream for dinner or spend the whole day reading.
Aside: There is a completionist in me that finds it really easy to go through a series of manga or finish reading all...

During his Relentless arc on Catwoman Ed Brubaker put Selina and Holly Robinson through something of a wringer, leading to the climax where Holly killed Sylvia, an ally of the Black Mask, in order to save Selina.

Week in Review
It’s actually been a pretty major week, even though it doesn’t feel that way on a long (thank goodness) achy Sunday.
Monday was special, visited a few friends after work, which is a change in habits I am definitely enjoying. Got to see a friend who has been around for years with a bit more clarity, making me want to know her better. I am not sure why I am doing all this socializing: I...
Riot vs. Weekend
I have wanted to do a comic blog for a few years now. I’ve been a pretty happy reader and I wanted to focus on the titles I was really enjoying and such. The name of the blog comes from my experience (up until recently) that Wednesday is the best day of the week: new comics, a day off from my commute to catch up on personal and work projects, and dancing (ballet, Neo nightclub, or both)....

Greg Rucka (via ComicVine)
I really dare anyone to find me another male writer who respects women and understands women better than Greg Rucka. Actually, I’ll take it a step further, I dare you to find another male writer who respects MEN and understands the concept of all the incredibly...
