Moved to Library Grape

I've moved my blogging to the new Library Grape.

You might encounter a personal post here once in a blue moon, but EYAB is largely on ice.

Thanks for reading.

Front page — Reader feed — ABOUT ME...

I'm Gherald L. and this is a place to journal and rant inexpertly about whatever interests me.

At present this includes humor, freethought, liberty, laissez-faire economics, pragmatic politics, and foreign policy of the realism school.

Random quote

“Conservatives at their best are Size Queens: They dislike 'Big Government.' They want 'smaller government.' Actual liberty? Where people are truly free to choose? Nope. That scares them. There is always some issue, like drugs, or religion, that throw them for a loop.

Individualist liberals and libertarians love liberty. Conservatives want smaller government. There is a difference.”
—Wirkman Virkkala
