Found here. Short version: it’s going to be interesting to see how Clinton does against Sanders there. No, really, it should tell us something about long-term voter patterns.

Sorry. In the throes of artistic creation.
While in the shower this morning I decided to completely toss aside the idea I had for this one short story and write an entirely different one instead. Because I can write it, easily. It’s actually flowing pretty well…
‘Under the Sea.’
Still the best Disney music.
My Patreon short-short story: “Don’t Look.”
It’s odd: I like the Cthulhu Mythos, but I think that things like “Don’t Look” is about as grim as I can get in that genre unless I really push myself. Hope you like it.
My Patreon site is here. Hey, deja vu!
My Patreon short-short-short “Alas, Tolkien never told us the Dwarven word for ‘boot.’ “
Yes, “Alas, Tolkien never told us the Dwarven word for ‘boot’” is a mouthful. I should have just called it “Boot.” And, in case you were wondering: the Nazis would have hated Dwarves because Siegfried did, or something. Look, it’s not like those guys were rational actors, OK?
My Patreon site is here. Tell your friends! …No, really.
My RedState post on the Virginia delegate wars.
Found here. Short version: …Paul Manafort is very bad at wrangling delegates, apparently. And Ken Cuccinelli is very good. If you think that there’s going to be a scorched-earth policy at the convention, this is interesting news.
My PJ Lifestyle post on Illness/Disease in RPGs.
Found here. Short version: …well, it’s one way to inconvenience a high-level character. Sometimes you need that for good play.
Today is Victims of Communism Day.
Oh, I know that the Marxists revere it as ‘May Day,’ but let’s be honest. Deliberately killing somewhere between eighty and a hundred million people as part of your ideology should be automatically disqualifying when it comes to who gets to assign holidays. Certainly Communism’s victims would like to have a vote…
May Day should be known as Victims of Communism Day https://t.co/zVBD1gGTwQ @VolokhC @ilyasomin
