My joint's gist is prison, news, music, comic books, art, food, or whatever floats this inmate that day. Strike up some conversation or share my words with thinking types on the streets, Pal.


Long Division
June 24th, 2026 My favorite juicy conspiracy theory is Joan Rivers being murdered after outing Michelle Obama as a biological fella. Can I control hoping all of the above is true? Death and taxes are un-sexy so I require a shadow government for the comic I live, write, and hope to hook up with the brawny, sensitive, 30-esque artist of. Send him my way if you know the poor starving lad I was put here (planet, not prison) to help. Anyway, Joan used to have this bit "How Go

Paris is Burning Down the House!
Chapter Two June 18th, 2026 Regarding Marilyn and Kim, who lasted longer and will have greatest impact? Further, whose societal contribution is bigger? Marilyn got a married president to cheat on a first lady we pretended to love yet all blew more kisses to the whore who tried to wreck her home, honestly. K.K. used her powers to get a sitting POTUS help for an unfairly sentenced woman. Shortly out of prison and home to grandkids and thanking Kim and Unca Donald, Mizz Ali

Inmate Tortured/Assaulted
June 9th, 2026 Saturday night hearing screams behind a doorway to mystery a young man I made nachos both with and for six hours earlier was almost killed. Approximately 12:10 noise erupted behind the opening to the ten-man addition off our main drag from the wing. Into visibility was a plastic stool hitting the floor. Voices of variable volume and metallic thumping overtook the strip of bunk-beds and everyone laying down removed their ear-buds and headphones. Side-b

"The Best Things In Life Ain't Free"
May 29th, 2026 When I'm wrong I own it. Literally a bitter pill, Pals and Gals. Saying dropping the lost 'War On Drugs' in the hoosegow and doling doses free to inmates fixes yard-crime? Overarching issues proved I haven't earned the nickname "Quitler" (Queer Hitler) exiled ex-pal Adrian* dealt me. Maybe I seem adorably hardcore right wing sometimes but totalitarian master planner? S'pose I blow, Dudenheimmen. This yard's littered with trash Landscape cant fix with

Batmama's Northpoint Notes Memorial Day 2026
"Being a People Got Hard, Huh?" Chapter Three Speaking of an unwinnable culture war, ending a TV show of significance on a cliffhanger presents a segue, right? Weeks ago I kvetched then bravoed season six of "DCs Legends of Tomorrow" appearing in our pitiful tablet selection. Under the mistaken belief it was the finale because a) bad intel and b) I'm on Jerk Island without internet. I should've asked Gideon... I mean Mizz Angie to check and see but for some insane reaso

Somethin's Rockin' In Denmark
May 12th, 2026 Being finals week for Simmons College, I turned in my last piece today then retooled it for youse guys. Not being lazy, as I enjoyed writing it. I re-fabricated the syntax and gave her a remix with reviews and such. Rather than plop it in Essays which I'll do in the academic form for sure, I'm hoping you dig the messages for the masses and I'd LOVE to hear something, being plumb hangry for feedback. I want to write and be better. I do it daily and passiona

Girl Bawss Mixtape
Being hit or miss on sexual segregation at this point in culture with diversity rampant to the point of inorganic lunacy often, I don't see the need to give dichotomy to sexes much. Music I give exception to, but not over inequality. In the 1990s I DJ'd at WRFL-FM, an alternative radio station on the University of Kentucky campus in Lexington, my gal-pal Robin and I came in to resurrect the Women's Music Show a temporarily-absent host whose real name was Ashley Judd. The

Cover Stories
March 14, 2026 Whaddup, Civilians? Climbed out of the Hole to rediscover like 99.99 percent of humans I'm one of the 'ass-' variety again. The concomitant piece to this being my website has a superpower that if I smack-talk someone I get my fine seasoned ass handed to me, relearning the lesson I've schooled many on over the years: most every person we encounter is wonderful and godawful. Duality is foundational to the majority of personae. Ergo, lest someone torches our

Pungk Mixtape
Back in second grade, block neighbor and idol Jeff Larrison had me scared shitless above all bogeymen of KISS, his older brother Butchie's favorite band. The makeup and loud guitars, he said were devil music so I crossed the street when the jams blasted from future murderer Butch Woodford's window. Eventually he and an asshole named Jeff Conkwright beat my "Drunkle" Franklins best buddy Rabbit plum to death over barely legal sexpot Christina Peshahonoff. Her stone-foxiness I'

Pedo Problems
January 25th, 2026 Hey Y'all! Plumb worn out from this week. I put two pieces in Essays and I hope you read them, especially "AWFUL Truths : Let The Queer Set You Straight", a labor of love I busted my ancient ass on. The other one, " The Illusion of Race" was a Simmons College assignment I put here hoping to rouse conversation. My man is in the damned hole AGAIN. Sex Offender related, no less, only this time my beloved ex-Nazi gangster wasn't involved. This sex cri

Kingdom Comeback
Access to comics in the joint is limited, there's no Wednesday trip to the store followed by a loop through the Indian buffet, Jack. Makes me thankful for every page I can peel. I wasn't able to clutch my desperate mitts around sequential art for four flat before I discovered Bargain Books catalogs, part of the Edward Hamilton Booksellers banner and approved vendor of the Department of Corrections whose fare is like Half Price Books on paper. I ordered a Wonder Woman/Justice

One Set, Stapled and Collated
January 14th, 2026 In 1995 I went from Louisville, where I'd lived a year to Nashville to learn about Digital Services for Kinko's (named for the founder's hair, we didn't retail pocket pussies), the company that would be purchased by FedEx and morphed into their Office chain. A wunderkind named Zack was there to show a cluster of us his savvy. This company was full of dynamic young people, a rare culture, and we worked like dogs and partied as hard. "Work, Life, Play" w

Batmama's Northpoint Notes New Years
December 31st, 2025 Scrappy New Queer, Visitors! I was having an hellacious time getting motivated the last day plus change, thrusting through this heap-big doozy of an essay when I ran outta steam and joi de vivre all around. Flattened by a wave of ennui, feeling unappreciated in numerous corners which also causes me to wonder if I'm a whiny bitch but we experience what we do sometimes. It passed thankfully, then a million dollar topical gift plopped onto my doorstep h
