Grinding my Gears™

With thanks to Peter Griffin

A new feature. Or a one-off that I call a feature and lose interest.

If you’ve made it this far in life without being fired, cancelled, or publicly flogged for saying something true, congratulations — you’re ahead of me. I write because I can’t not; because silence feels like complicity, and complicity feels like rot. If this piece leaves you nodding, snarling, or muttering, “Well, he’s not wrong,” then you’re precisely the reader I’m writing for.

Okay, “ Grind My Gears” was from Family Guy. But I’m too lazy to change my pictures.
