California Prop 50 (Nov 2025) | Corry Frydlewicz Should we bring a pool noodle to a gun fight?

"I don’t want to keep losing rights, freedoms, and funding for vital social services because I want to fight fair while oligarchs continue to ransack 99% of us."

Canceling Amazon Prime | Corry Frydlewicz When I first signed up for Amazon Prime in 2005 for $70 a year, it was so worth it.

In the spirit of my How-To Delete Facebook and Instagram post, here's a quick one about dropping Amazon Prime.

Terra and I | Corry Frydlewicz The Supreme Court ruling in U.S. v. Skrmetti comes shortly after the release of the Final Fantasy x Magic: The Gathering crossover set. My mind’s swimming in a blend of this unlikely pairing.

Dear Dad | Corry Frydlewicz I've written several articles to you, previously anonymized to blunt any hurt they may cause, but I doubt you've read them.

I’ve written several articles to you, previously anonymized to blunt hurt they may cause you, but your words and actions make me doubt you’ve read them. I’m not sure if being this blunt will make a difference, but I hope so.

The Scale of Experience | Corry Frydlewicz Our understanding of ourselves and others is limited by our range of experience, which is mostly involuntary and changes throughout our lifetime.

Simple Sabotage | Corry Frydlewicz There’s a 1944 CIA field manual circulating for some reason that I just wanted to copy and host here. I find the original text a little hard to read, so I wanted to transcribe it with larger more read...

Finally finished all the semantic hierarchy fixes, anchor links, reference linking, and readability formatting. Hopefully this makes it easier and more fun to read this #historicalDocument. 😇

What is Love? | Corry Frydlewicz Some sociology and relationship experts (whatever those are) assert that no one will ever experience the passion and excitement of their first relationship again, and that they should completely forge...

I couldn't stop thinking about this post, so I added an update the the end of it.

CW: This is the original un-edited (except for minor spelling/formatting things) #problematic post with a long addendum.

Screenshot of a paragraph from an old post 'What Is Love?' from Corry's Blog: "She has the added benefit of that crazy-juice they call estrogen, too, so her passion might be something I couldn’t chemically feel anyway. And yet… I feel like it’s in me somewhere. Would changing myself allow me to experience that with my girlfriend now, making everything perfect? Or is it the relationship itself that is missing it?"

Been going through old blog posts recently to fix formatting issues, add better tagging, and place editorial messages on the most #cringe ones.

This really sad one from 2008 has a helluva misogynistic #thereWereNoSigns paragraph in it.

Best of 2024 | Corry Frydlewicz It's that time of year again! For 2024 I decided to mix it up and share my favorite stuff on shuffle. I'm hoping it lets each thing stand on its own rather than feel like a listicle within a category.

What's your favorite thing of 2024?
