I suspect my biological father, Peter A. Lehman of Arcata, in addition to his other violence, may be the infamous Zodiac Killer, who terrorized the Bay Area in the late 1960s. I also suspect he may be responsible for numerous unsolved disappearances in Humboldt County over the years.

The most heartbreaking thing about being Gen X is the realization that we may not be able to fix anything our parents' generation destroyed until after they're dead and gone. If you don't believe me, ask them if they're worried about the future, and listen when they say, "Who cares? I'll be dead."

Peter Lehman, of the Arcata Planning Commission and Cal Poly Humboldt, has been a controlled amphetamine addict his entire adult life. He will use his corrupt influence and espionage connections to avoid arrest for these murders, but if evidence makes it inevitable, he will probably . . .

I had a dream that I finally got to testify in Congress about my father's terrorism, and serial murders, and political corruption. I wept and railed at the FBI officials and representatives who had done nothing to stop him while he went on killing innocent people day after day and year after year.

This is a despicable practice, and responsibility should be assigned at the highest levels. But I have to say that these "spies" (sometimes called CIs in the US, depending on who's running them) are often themselves coerced individuals. It's a complicated world, especially . . .

It's not just Trump's DOJ covering this kind of thing up: When my mom reported the organized, well connected, intelligence-community-adjacent pedophilia in our family to the FBI, they told her if she tried to make a case, she'd be killed. That was in the Clinton years.

Democracy means a society and system in which everyone’s rights matter. Rapists count on this being untrue – and Trump is proving them right

Rape is a crime against democracy in the most immediate sense of equality between individuals and the premise that we’re all endowed with certain inalienable rights. Most rapists operate on the premise that they can not only overpower the victim physically, but can do so socially and legally. They count on a system that discounts the voices of victims and only too often cooperates in silencing them, through shame, intimidation, threats, discrediting, the obscene legal instrument known as a nondisclosure agreement and a system too often run by men for men at the expense of women and children. That is to say, rapists count on getting away with it because of a system that hands them power and steals it from their victims. They count on a silencing system. On profound inequality.

Which is what makes rape such a peculiar crime: it is the ritual enactment of the perpetrator’s power and the victim’s powerlessness, buttressed by the circumstances that puts and keeps each of them in those roles. It’s driven by the desire to use sexuality to cause physical and psychic injury, to dominate, to celebrate the rapist’s power and the victim’s powerlessness, to treat another human being as a person without rights, including the right to set boundaries, to say no and to speak up afterward. A society that perpetuates and protects this desire and arrangement is rape culture, and it’s been our culture throughout most of its existence.

AI, crypto, and space exploration get hyped as solutions to humanity's woes, but they're built on fantasies. They become ponzi grifts because that's all they can be. The real work of fixing the world is often difficult, specific, and inglorious; so it's beyond the abilities of our current rulers.

But when we crave power over life—endless wealth, unassailable safety, immortality—then desire becomes greed. And if knowledge allies itself to that greed, then comes evil. Then the balance of the world is swayed, and ruin weighs heavy in the scale.

One of the small joys of indie publishing has been hearing a new generation pronounce the word "zine" so that it rhymes with "spine." In my day "zine" was short for "magazine" :) If I've been able to introduce people to the liberties and democratic power of owning physical media, I'm glad!

I always scoff at the term 'crypto industry.' Industries make things, crypto is a money laundering technique. Producing 'decentralized' fiat currency doesn't add any real wealth to the world, it only devalues other currencies and creates price inflation, as we've seen lately.
