Welcome to the central index of rants and flames! This index lists articles from all areas of this site which I designate as particularly vitriolic, sensitive, or angry. I’m calling it my Flames Index because it's all about relatively intense, fiery subject matter.
People said that my rants and flames are pretty tame. I get angry sometimes, but in general? I’m getting old and mellow. It’s hard to hiss and claw as much as in my youth. Many of these deal with social, economic, or geopolitical issues. I’m not a clever cat, but I want to share my thoughts on things affecting me.
As is the case in several sections and upcoming, these are labeled! Items bearing a crescent moon before them are associated with internet lore and activities. Those with a sun have a more IRL venue. By clicking on the section headings below, you can sort through these, as well as see some future topics for super serious flames. Hope you like!
