With nearly 20k followers on Twitter, and over 3000 subs on various blogs and music sites, it is impossible for me to welcome each person individually. Of course, I wish I could. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories! Until I find a way of cloning myself a few hundred times, this will have to do. 🙂
A brief summary about myself. I have been writing since I was 12. I love the horror genre and that is what I read and write mostly.I also write fantasy and mystery.You can learn more about my writing just by surfing this site, if you so desire. I have been singing and playing guitar since I was 15. All of my music is FREE. (who actually sells music these days?) The music I create embodies Rock, Blues, Chill, EDM, and Downtempo. Give it a listen if you like.
I have only recently started doing photography, but I studied the craft very carefully before beginning, and spent the money required, to do it justice. I am unhealthy and trying to build a legacy, before I die from all of the health problems I have. Everything I create is with that in mind.
I currently live in a new RV in Texas, with my wife and a majikal cat named appropriately, Jinxy. If you want to learn more about me, or just seek something to discover, here is a complete list of all my websites-

There are reasons, my sons.

Truly, I say unto you, that there is NOTHING a father would not do for his sons. This is true for most parents. The most important responsibility in raising children is to protect them. Think on this, is there anything, you would not do for your children?
When I decided to walk away from my family is was no easy task, despite all that they had done to me. But it was more important that I protect my children from them. You see, my family was a bunch of alcoholics. My grandpa and grandma always had beer in their hands. This is what they taught my uncles and my mother. Take that alcoholism and bring it into modern times, and you then had drug use too. Both my uncles did this. When my uncles wanted to move to Texas, everyone moved. This cost me the career I never did get and set me up for many more years of poverty, I never managed to climb out of.
I knew my family could not be trusted and I knew that they were alcoholics. I knew there was no other way to protect my children, than to get away from the entire family. Before you start saying I am lying some more, let me introduce you to your Uncle Rick.

Funny, how they want to criminalize me for the things others have done. Seems I don’t lie all the time after all. I won’t say he molested me, but I will say he babysat me and I spent far too much time with the child molesting asshole. He was kind enough to teach me how to smoke, drink alcohol, and do drugs.
And this is just one of the many reasons why I kept you from my family. I could go on and on about the things my family did to give me reason to keep my kids away from them. However, you need to realize that your PARENTS are not liars and that they would have done anything to keep you safe. When you realize that the same principles applied to your mother’s family also, then you will begin to understand.
Your parents never lied. If we are guilty of anything, we are guilty of protecting you boys and ending generational alcoholism and generational abuse and narcissism. Sadly, your pushing us away and never figuring it out, will lead to bad karma for both of you. We could protect you from many things, but we could never protect you from yourselves.
Good luck!

We chose…
Profit over people.
Money over meaning.
401k over another way.
Destruction over protection.
We have become…
A danger to ourselves.
A virus in need of a cure.
A poison too vile to contain.
Little monsters hiding under the bed.
We have lost…
What is important.
What reason defines.
What feeling is.
What can be seen.
Because of our indifference…
The human race now dies
A gradual sliding into a dark ocean.
A return to the muck, from whence we come.
A fading into the mist.
No more, evermore.
We never mattered anyway.

While America lies bleeding…
06 Friday Nov 2020

I won’t be nearly as glib as I was on my other blog-https://axewielderx.wordpress.com/2020/11/04/the-2020-election-results-too-funny/ as this blog is not about that and I am certain those that read this one, expect a bit more from me.
As an intellectual man, it has occurred to me that in these days of anxiety and perpetual laziness, politics is nothing short of wasting time. Nothing good ever comes from lying, yet, that is a absolute requirement to enter politics. You cannot be popular and tell everyone the truth. However, usually when I am bored, I don’t mind stirring the pot, but I really have no use for such time wasting discussions.
However, I will make a brief venture into the swamp land of politics today.
I feel a small desire to clarify exactly why we are in the political landscape we are in. It is not a simply he said/she said situation. It is more about what lies at the core of us all. It is about Vanity. A subject I discussed at length in my first novel(Little Moments Of Truth).
Here I will give the short version. Vanity teaches us to to lie to ourselves, which in turn teaches us to lie to others. It convinces us that it is ok to lie sometimes. Eventually it has us convinced that lying all the time is fine. There is a reason it is the Original sin.
Sadly there is not much we can do to change this core problem. It lies at the base of everyone’s personality roots. It is a survival mechanism. Sometimes we actually need to lie to ourselves, because accepting the truth would be more than we can handle. Thus the core mechanism that helps us survive is also what makes us liars.
So what does this have to do with this year’s election result? Many of us spouting how we were going to vote all the incumbents out of office, but when it came down to actually doing what was best for us and America, we found we could not trust that everyone else would do the same. Liars do not trust others. We are a nation of liars. I know this truth is pretty harsh, but if it makes the pill any easier to swallow, it is human nature. Thus we are not the only liars. All people are! There are no exceptions!
For a good portion of known history mankind has had some of its greatest minds contemplate what would be needed to create the perfect government to govern the people. There have been many ideologies, but none have ever proven to last. There is a simple reason for this. It is the human factor. All previous governments have risen and fallen due to human nature. Humans are flawed, very flawed indeed. To expect create a perfect government with a flawed element is absurd at best. Sometimes great minds overlook the most simple ideas. A gram of common sense is worth more than many pounds of intellect.
Let this be a great lesson for us all. When you vote, vote for whatever is best for your nation, not what is best for your political party. If we all are selfish in our deeds, we all stand to gain nothing!
That is all I will say on the subject of politics. Now I must go wash my mouth out with coffee…
As for myself, I have determined that social media is not my thing at all. People are much more about “me,me,me” and not about “us or we” these days. What I mean is there seems to be a trend of everyone, on every social platform of following, then unfollowing. An almost like “Ha! Ha! I tricked you.” mentality. It is rude, vulgar and deceitful. We all have the right to determine what we allow within our lives. I am choosing to leave behind that which I have deemed negative and beneath me.
Instead I will put my efforts into things I feel will be of more benefit to myself and others. In the coming months, I will be creating a Photography blog so that I may put words with those wonderful photos I have been creating. I will also be creating some designs from some of the photos and make those available for purchase at a very reasonable price on Etsy. As usual you can always buy prints from my portfolio website at –https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/jb-thomas .
Well, thats about it for today, I suppose. I hope you all have enjoyed reading and that it was beneficial to you. Have an amazing day!

A Life of Covid 19 Part 2: The sins of a family

After posting my previous post,(A life of Covid 19), I certainly did not expect any replies. Let’s face it, people say they want the truth, but what they really want is lies. In my previous post, I did not point any fingers at anyone. I merely stated that we are ALL to be blamed. We are all to be blamed because of the lies we tell each other and ourselves. We tell each other it is not your fault. We say to ourselves that we cannot change anything. Both are lies and too many fail to see this. I pointed out our wrongs and I also pointed out the truth. The truth is, just as we allowed this to happen, we can also make certain it never happens again.
So obviously, I expected no one to else to share responsibility for our world and I expected no one to challenge the truth of my message. What I did not expect was my egotistical mother to reply, after she has been asked over and over again to leave me alone. I did not expect her to take a message meant for everyone and make it about herself. Just to demonstrate I do not lie. Here is a screenshot of her reply to my post. I cannot show it any other way. Anyone who owns a blog here knows that once you approve a comment, every comment from that person will be automatically approved. So here is the screenshot-

As you can clearly see she takes a post meant for humanity as a whole and makes it about her. But what should you expect from a self-centered, pathological liar?
I was wondering if kicking your son, wife, and grandchild(both wife and grandson had the flu) out to the streets and then telling the entire family that is was our decision to leave, was a lie of omission? How exactly did covering the atrocities of your actions count as protection?
How about lying about coming to pickup the grandchildren and then at the last minute changing your mind to spend with your friends instead. Thus leaving the grandchildren sad and wondering if they even mattered. How was that a lie by omission? How did that protect me?
Then after having had two other chances at being a decent grandparent, you turn around and accuse me of not inviting you to my son’s wedding. As if my son could not decide who he wanted there. But of course, my mother always blamed me for everything everyone else did. In fact, it seems like it was her life mission to blame me for everything. No wonder the family believed her when she said we were not kicked out of her house. I am sure she had been directly lying to them all those years. Anyone out there want this woman for your mother? Please do take her. She only lies about her lies. Completely pathological!
She went out of her way to ruin my life. No, this is not some teenager ranting about his parents. This is a very sober, and very tired of their shit, adult of 55 yrs. old talking. Let me state some examples:
She ripped me from Iowa knowing that I had spent over 4 yrs. in school learning electronics. I was going to be in a special co-op my last year of high school to get on the job training for a career. This little selfish act cost me a lifetime career. But she had to move away from her career in Real Estate to be with her family that single fucking year.
She kept choosing abusive alcoholic men to hook up with. So, I could sit downstairs and enjoy the screaming and physical fighting when I was but a small child. Talk about trauma!
She let her younger alcoholic brother babysit us. Because letting an alcoholic, druggie who molests young boys and throws parties while my mother was doing who knows what, was the best babysitter she could find. Later on she managed to find an abusive woman who’s husband owned a dog that chewed a child’s face off. That was indeed a step up! Not sure if you believe she would leave me with a child molester? Here is a screenshot from a recent text of a childhood friend, who was molested by him, and then was dumb enough to trust Rick( the younger brother)with his child.-
A little bit more proof that I do indeed tell the truth.
She kicked me out so many times, I actually lost count. The reasons(lies) as to why were always different but it was always the same story. When I had no money to give her, she kicked me out. That is what it always came down to with this so-called mother. It did not matter if I was on probation, parole, in college, or actively looking for work. (A side note, that meant going out of the house and walking all day in the lovely Texas heat, without any money for even a drink.
She let her brother come over and harass me into drinking for an entire week just after I came back from prison. She could not stand to have me back sober. Then she would have no reason to blame for me having no money, except herself.
She would tell me that if any women put her hands on me, it meant they disrespected me and I should return the favor. Then time after time would proceed to physically attack me. When I one time moved her back away from me, she blatantly lied to current husband and told him I hit her. I got sucker punched for that. Let me make that clear, I got hit in the belly, it knocked all the air of me and I dropped. This happened because I tried to stop from being hit repeatedly by my mother.
When she could no longer beat me hard enough with a belt to get a sound out of me, she had her abusive husband beat me so bad, I could not sit down for a week. Needless to say, I got out of school for a week. We could not have our son with welts and bruises on his legs be seen in gym class shorts.
She left me completely unsupervised when I was a small child. Forcing me to eat nothing but cereal for every meal. I get that she was sick, but how fucking irresponsible can you be? You could not had someone, anyone come check on me?
Her abuse did not end with the physical. It was always something I did wrong, even if it was someone else who did. My youngest brother broke something while I was going to the bathroom, my fault. Then there was the outright vulgarity. “Your a worthless piece of shit who will never amount to anything”. She said that so many times, I have it memorized!
Can you begin to see how it would appear that this woman went out of her way to create a monster and then punished me when I became one?
I tell her to go away. I tell I want her leave me or my family alone. I tell her, but she just does not listen. I guess the only thing left to do is to start building a harassment case.
Can you see why I would want to forget my past, my family, the abuse, the lies, all of it? I want to but I know now, I won’t. I will never forget and I will never forgive. I won’t forgive because the lies never end. You cannot forgive someone who admits to no wrong.
Now the world knows, at least a portion of my horrid childhood. Do you envy me? Feel sorry? I doubt either. The world needs to at least change the second part of this, if we are to change things. We need to start caring. Caring about each other and and about the world we live in. That is how we changes things. The lies will never fix anything!
