Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Thursday, June 14, 2012. What's the Deal with Comics? This was a blog post that should have come out a long time ago. My friend Tobie shared this article on Google plus: What Do You REALLY Know About Comics? The gist is this: Joe Mulvey attempts to spread the love of comics by asking people to try them out. He meets and interviews someone who is not a fan and who is determined not to give comics a try. Joe Mulvey begins by noting-.

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Friday, March 06, 2015. It's Over Nine Thouuuusaaaaaaand! My blog is old, and it has practically 9000 page views. By the time I'm done with this post, that Dragon Ball Z joke will finally apply. I don't know how to feel about that. It's small change, given that the blog has been around since 2003. Thanks so much, Romanian reader who visited because he was maybe looking for something else! No, wait,. Follow me on Twitter.

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Friday, July 26, 2013. While responding to a friend's post, my thoughts took me to some places I hadn't visited since early college. I like. Thinking about where and how we push tech and where and how it pushes us. I've always loved the fiction and speculative writing that tackle the implications of, say, networked brains, quantum computing and simulated humanity. That said, I'm also kind of a Luddite. Is it because I live here.

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Friday, March 06, 2015. There's an hour long BBC documentary making the rounds on the Internet. No one in it shows any gore, but the descriptions of how a particular rape happened in India are enough to make most anyone question his faith in humanity. You turn cynical when you hear how defense lawyers justified the behavior of the rapists. If you plan to watch it- assuming you can find it. From the New Indian Express. The fiercenes...

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Thursday, September 27, 2012. Will Riot for Bad Movies (among other things). The other groups can get to keep criticism away (all kinds of criticism, even the valid kind) by playing the same card. At first glance, that might look appealing. until it's your. Don't get me wrong: I'm glad our local Muslims did not resort to pointless violence. It says a lot of good things about them and gives lie to the offensive stereotypes that ...

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Saturday, February 02, 2013. Minami-san. May I call you Minami-san? First, please pardon my writing to you in English. It's been more than five years since my last Japanese Language Proficiency Test and there hasn't really been any reason or opportunity for me to speak or write in Japanese- well, not since I had to communicate with a salesman in Akihabara in 2005. Yes, it's about that video. You have a life. You're a young woman wh...

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Tuesday, June 22, 2010. The Great Book Blockade Finally Really Ends. So can I finally get myself a copy of Margaret Weis's and Tracy Hickman's Amber and Blood. Remember just why you suddenly couldn't find the books you were looking for at the local bookstore in '09? Or that if you did. Find them, they were suddenly so freakishly expensive? It turns out that Customs was holding said books hostage. Coming through our ports. L) import...

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Thursday, November 20, 2014. The Root of the Problem. Jordan's Queen Rania is concerned that Islamic Extremists are painting the Arab World in violent colors. I agree. I have a caveat, though. Dear Queen Rania,. Would a wise, loving, merciful God really. Inflict infinite punishment for finite crimes? Would the same God really. Prescribe monstrous behavior toward people who are obviously also his children? Would a just God really.

Dex El and His Big Bodega. Dex El's Thoughts and the Occasional Epiphany. Saturday, September 06, 2014. I must be the most hypocritical Philosophical Naturalist on the planet. I keep writing open letters to dead people. As if doing so would cause them to send me a reply. (They wouldn't have had the time or the inclination to reply to me when they were alive, what makes me think they'd want to now that they're .dead? But they've obviously affected my life enough for me to care about their passing. Despite...
