Cursing the darkness, without a single candle.
Apr 27 2019
I hate what’s going on these days. I hate the plot, the writing, everything. But I will admit, I’m interested. You have my attention. I’m invested. Not monetarily. Monetarily? Really? Me? You gotta be kidding. No, I’m bankrupt of every asset you could imagine. I have no interest but the honest one. I’m binging on Earth, and the human species. I’m hooked. I actually have real affection for this story I hate, the plot twists I can’t stomach, the characters I’d like to throttle. I can’t help it. You got me interested. I’m hooked.
In a Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen is NOT DOING OK with this whole mess on Planet Earth - himself, you, me, us, Alex Jones, the smart, the dumb, ideological grotesquery, the 2020 election, the fog, the desperation, the rope, insincerity, people of all faiths and identity communities - but he can't stop watching this cursed mess.
