The Rationalist: My worldview going forward.

No matter how long you've been on social media, whether Twitter or Kik, someone will invariably ask you what your social worldview is. It just happens. Even if you wish it didn't, even if explaining it seems harder and harder, it does. So it's better just to deal with it and figure out the best way to handle the inevitable question that would come.

It used to be that I would call myself a feminist, full-stop. And for a while that seemed to be an acceptable answer to the question. But, as years went by and we moved from the 2nd wave to the 3rd and that 3rd-wave became increasingly tied in with political action, that became a harder and harder thing to deal with. I began to wonder what the feminism I grew up with, the feminism that dealt with real problems and figured out ways to solve them, had turned into while I wasn't looking.

My Home Away From My Other Homes....

Hi there. You might know me from my work on The Wrestling Blog or The Starting Five.

If that's true, and you liked in any shape, form, or fashion anything I ever wrote, there's probably one thing you've always wondered to yourself.

"Why doesn't he write more?"

This is where that will be from now on.

Please, continue to follow me on twitter.

But also, start reading me here.

I promise one thing, and one thing only: I will not waste your time.

The Majestic Recipe Box: three-cheese Panini

If you follow me on Twitter you'll soon discover that as much as I love talking about wrestling, I also love talking about what I'm making for dinner. So i figured that I would start writing down my lovely sandwich options. First thing up: three-cheese panini with homemade arrabiata sauce.

ingredients:

high-quality bread. pugliese and ciabatta are the best for this, but if you want to tempt fate and use a baguette, I am not going to be the one to stop you.
arrabiata sauce: recipe can be found here
cheese: 2 grated oz each of cheddar, queso quesadilla (found in the mexican\ethnic foods aisle in most supermarkets), and monterey jack. swiss, muenster, and colby jack are also all acceptable substitutes.

recipe:

cut the bread lengthwise. spoon on enough of the sauce to cover the bottom portion of the bread, then add the cheese. stuff and place on a steaming hot panini press. press until the cheese is melted. eat and enjoy.
