If It Smells Like a Dictator…. Let me finish that line from the title of today’s TRUTH: In 1000 Words or Less for ya, “If it smells like a dictator…..yeah, it’s a motherfucking dictator.” Now if you recall, I told you this was going to happen, but when Trump started tweeting last week that we […]
Teachers Better Ask for a Raise So here we find ourselves with the days of July dwindling, and you all know what that means: It is almost time to send the kids back to school. And even though students living on the East Coast generally have until after Labor Day to bask in the glow […]
The Happiness Within Believe it or not, I’ve been doing this a long time. While TRUTH: In 1000 Words or Less did take an 18-month hiatus while I was back in the classroom corrupting, I mean educating, the minds of America’s youth, I’ve been publishing this thing every Thursday since 2014.

Lawnmower Parents Are Destroying America Do you remember that time when your mom marched into your principal’s office to contest the 62% you had pulled out of your ass on your Pre-Algreba test despite the fact that you couldn’t be bothered to study for it the night before as you stayed awake until 2am playing […]

This will probably come as a surprise to absolutely none of you who know me, but I was an only child (all previous girlfriends feel free to insert your own personal snicker here). As such, I was not privy to the world of sibling antagonism. But the universe works in funny and mysterious ways, and […]
Raise your hands if you feel like you’ve seen enough police brutality videos over the past couple weeks to leave you queasier than the first time you watched the dog mauling scene in Django Unchained. I have to admit that I had to turn my head away when I saw that scene in the theater […]
I’m sure most of you are expecting me to use this week’s column to speak to the Black Lives Matter protests that have ignited this nation in the wake of the tragic murder of George Floyd by four Minneapolis police officers. I am sorry to disappoint you, but I just don’t have it in me. […]
Mailing It In- The Saga of the 2020 Election I’ve said this before, but I love two-parters. I aways appreciate the heightened tension provided by these weekly installments, such as when we left off not knowing who had shot Mr. Burns only to discover the following week that it was the baby, Maggie. Dickens, like […]
