From my other blog

With nearly 20k followers on Twitter, and over 3000 subs on various blogs and music sites, it is impossible for me to welcome each person individually. Of course, I wish I could. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories! Until I find a way of cloning myself a few hundred times, this will have to do. 🙂

A brief summary about myself. I have been writing since I was 12. I love the horror genre and that is what I read and write mostly.I also write fantasy and mystery.You can learn more about my writing just by surfing this site, if you so desire. I have been singing and playing guitar since I was 15. All of my music is FREE. (who actually sells music these days?) The music I create embodies Rock, Blues, Chill, EDM, and Downtempo. Give it a listen if you like.

I have only recently started doing photography, but I studied the craft very carefully before beginning, and spent the money required, to do it justice. I am unhealthy and trying to build a legacy, before I die from all of the health problems I have. Everything I create is with that in mind.

I currently live in a new RV in Texas, with my wife and a majikal cat named appropriately, Jinxy. If you want to learn more about me, or just seek something to discover, here is a complete list of all my websites-

Yep, I finally broke down and opened shop. I have only added a couple of items thus far, but do plan on adding items every day from here on out. This first month, I will be concentrating on putting in Halloween related products. So if you love Halloween, please do bookmark it and check back often.

My Etsy Shop

In the future I will eventually move every single photo and artwork to Etsy. I want people to get the best products at the lowest prices. The prices at Etsy are way lower than my Fine Art America site, for sure.

As an aside, yes, I have still been writing. I doubt I will ever quit. It is a part of who I am. However, I have decided not to share for awhile. It is likely the next time you read about this, will be when a book has been grabbed up by a major publisher or the writings are discovered after my death. It is what it is.

Thank you for reading and please do enjoy your day!🙏😇🤟

2020, election, new blog, politics, results, social media

I won’t be nearly as glib as I was on my other blog-https://axewielderx.wordpress.com/2020/11/04/the-2020-election-results-too-funny/ as this blog is not about that and I am certain those that read this one, expect a bit more from me.

As an intellectual man, it has occurred to me that in these days of anxiety and perpetual laziness, politics is nothing short of wasting time. Nothing good ever comes from lying, yet, that is a absolute requirement to enter politics. You cannot be popular and tell everyone the truth. However, usually when I am bored, I don’t mind stirring the pot, but I really have no use for such time wasting discussions.
However, I will make a brief venture into the swamp land of politics today.

I feel a small desire to clarify exactly why we are in the political landscape we are in. It is not a simply he said/she said situation. It is more about what lies at the core of us all. It is about Vanity. A subject I discussed at length in my first novel(Little Moments Of Truth).

Here I will give the short version. Vanity teaches us to to lie to ourselves, which in turn teaches us to lie to others. It convinces us that it is ok to lie sometimes. Eventually it has us convinced that lying all the time is fine. There is a reason it is the Original sin.

Sadly there is not much we can do to change this core problem. It lies at the base of everyone’s personality roots. It is a survival mechanism. Sometimes we actually need to lie to ourselves, because accepting the truth would be more than we can handle. Thus the core mechanism that helps us survive is also what makes us liars.

So what does this have to do with this year’s election result? Many of us spouting how we were going to vote all the incumbents out of office, but when it came down to actually doing what was best for us and America, we found we could not trust that everyone else would do the same. Liars do not trust others. We are a nation of liars. I know this truth is pretty harsh, but if it makes the pill any easier to swallow, it is human nature. Thus we are not the only liars. All people are! There are no exceptions!

For a good portion of known history mankind has had some of its greatest minds contemplate what would be needed to create the perfect government to govern the people. There have been many ideologies, but none have ever proven to last. There is a simple reason for this. It is the human factor. All previous governments have risen and fallen due to human nature. Humans are flawed, very flawed indeed. To expect create a perfect government with a flawed element is absurd at best. Sometimes great minds overlook the most simple ideas. A gram of common sense is worth more than many pounds of intellect.

Let this be a great lesson for us all. When you vote, vote for whatever is best for your nation, not what is best for your political party. If we all are selfish in our deeds, we all stand to gain nothing!
That is all I will say on the subject of politics. Now I must go wash my mouth out with coffee…

As for myself, I have determined that social media is not my thing at all. People are much more about “me,me,me” and not about “us or we” these days. What I mean is there seems to be a trend of everyone, on every social platform of following, then unfollowing. An almost like “Ha! Ha! I tricked you.” mentality. It is rude, vulgar and deceitful. We all have the right to determine what we allow within our lives. I am choosing to leave behind that which I have deemed negative and beneath me.

Instead I will put my efforts into things I feel will be of more benefit to myself and others. In the coming months, I will be creating a Photography blog so that I may put words with those wonderful photos I have been creating. I will also be creating some designs from some of the photos and make those available for purchase at a very reasonable price on Etsy. As usual you can always buy prints from my portfolio website at –https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/jb-thomas .

Well, thats about it for today, I suppose. I hope you all have enjoyed reading and that it was beneficial to you. Have an amazing day!
