Hello! My name is Sophie, Soph to friends. As I’m sure everybody is extremely aware at this point, I’m transgender - I was labeled a boy at birth, but now identify as a woman and go by she/her pronouns. I’ve always been aware of this identity to some degree or another (I’ve seen others refer to...

Hello! As always, I'm super late in starting this whole shebang. I don't know why I always do this to myself hahahahaha kill me. Once again, I flaked on posting the final week of Pick'ems from last year, and once again, I'm posting this literally 4 days before the season officially kicks off...

My uncle's work has authorized him to spend up to $3500 on a new laptop or tablet for himself, he is looking for recommendations on what to buy. He says he is a microsoft guy who will need office for all his work, but would also like to play video games while he's on airplanes. He hasn't...

So a few weeks back I was browsing deadspin, as ya do, and they published a fun little power ranking of the Constitutional Amendments. This is part of a long-running series deadspin has done, and usually their rankings aren't supposed to be taken at all seriously - other notable entries in this...

Hello everybody and welcome to the 3rd annual CFC Pick'em Funtimes League! It's been a long year, I'm thoroughly deflated by how my Giants are doing in the dog days of August and I'm ready to think about literally anything else...at least for a couple weeks until the 49ers inevitably crap the...

So today I was wandering around the wilds of the internet and stumbled upon sortinghatchats a delightful little tumblr blog that has taken the Sorting Hat and Four Houses from the Harry Potter universe and tried to establish a deeper rationale for the attributes that constitute the tetrachotomy...

Introduction 1903, New York City. At long last the owners of the Federal Association and the National Association have come to terms, and there is peace in the baseball world once more. The crisis began 3 years ago, when the Federal Association, the longest running professional base ball league...

So way back in November I did this thing where I looked at the first 5 of California's congressional districts. It originated as a joke-post that I got way too into - I was looking at each representative individually to demonstrate to Domination3000 that the House of Representatives was not this...

Winter, 1268 Many before have waxed long and eloquent on the idea of "Italia", a land united in custom and language under one ruler. As a young man I thought this idea ludicrous - a whimsical dream of thinkers who know nothing of the realities of political intrigue. They think of this peninsula...
