Hi! My name is Josh and this is my blog. I used to share on social media but decided that my fragility was too valuable to subject to algorithims and assholes.

  • What if Area 51 was every Victoria’s Secret store? That’s some Men In Black level secret hiding going on there.

  • I started thinking about Britt and my wedding, seven years ago next month, and what we would have done differently. It’s something I’m asked by most couples.

    Honestly I’m picking at straws to think of things I would change. We had a ball!

    I often tell people that if I could go back I’d probably change our decision to have a bridal party. Ours was full of fine people, but it’s probably the only slack I’d cut off. We’d still get ready together with the same people, and I’d still get Scotty to pray for us and Ash to make a speech, but I just wouldn’t force them to stand up with us in matching clothes.

    Oh, I would also get Michael Eotvos to come and play live music through the ceremony instead of getting our mate Andy to DJ the ceremony.

    What would you change about your wedding?

  • Talking about retail figures, this guy’s a genius, and might just be the saving grace retail needs, not sympathetic news articles about it’s decline — Barnes and Noble's New CEO Just Revealed a Brilliant Plan to Save the Company

  • Every day there’s news reports about retail figures being low. Is that how we measure our success as a society? By how much money is spent at David Jones and Myer?

    You are what you measure.

    I’d suggest we measure something other than sales at cash registers.

    It’s like measuring the number of phone calls made to see how healthy we are as a society.

  • “Imagine this: A shooter has entered a public place, where you are walking with your family. You have but a minute to realize you can save your 2-month-old by using your own body to shield him from the bullets raining down around you. Mere days later, your baby, the youngest survivor of the El Paso massacre, will appear on television with the very man who inspired the terrorist who killed both you and your husband. A photograph is taken, for posterity.” // Trump’s Horrific Photo with El Paso Victim Paul Anchondo

  • Our unborn baby just looked up at me and said “Daddy, why do people make up things their kids said and post them on the internet?”
