The Cult of the Orange Man
The Cult of the Orange Man
Many people believe all sorts of things that aren’t true. Some of those don’t matter much, for example, a person believing that rubbing keeping his lucky rubber ducky next to his easy chair will make his team win. It’s not true but it does no harm. We aren’t talking about that. We are talking about lies that destroy and kill. For example, Trump said the Corona Virus was just like the flu and we…

Go Small or Go Home - A Cautionary New Year's Tale
Go Small or Go Home – A Cautionary New Year’s Tale
This was going to be my New Years Day post but a flood in my house on New Years Eve got in the way. At first it was just an obvious emergency I had to deal with, then it became the real life lesson that illustrates this quote. So, about that flood. It was all my fault. Why? Because I didn’t think small, I thought big. Well, not exactly big, but bigger than I should have at the moment. In other…

The Lies of the Orange Man
The Lies of the Orange Man
Delusion is a hard thing to overcome. Individuals believe things that are untrue for all sorts of reasons. Many times they even know inside that what they believe is untrue but they just can’t get the courage to admit it to themselves or others. It really isn’t that uncommon. But what is far more dangerous is when large groups inside a country believe things that there is no evidence for or is…

The Character of the Orange Man
The Character of the Orange Man
You ever notice how paranoid people think other people are paranoid? Or how angry people think others are angry? Or perhaps the opposite, the person who wears rose colored glasses thinks everyone else is nice and benign. What is happening there? They are projecting. They see the world a certain way due to their character traits and so they assign those same traits to others actions. They can’t…

The Offense of the Orange Man
The Offense of the Orange Man
“If you are easily offended you are easily manipulated”. I heard our Pastor say this in his sermon this week and it resonated with me.
There are two parts to this quote, first the idea of being easily offended. It is what might currently be associated with ‘cancel culture’. You hear something you don’t like from someone, maybe a celebrity, maybe a politician, and you decide they are no…

The Absurdity of The Orange Man
In the book ‘1984’ there were official sayings of the party in control, inscribed on the giant white pyramid at the Ministry of Truth. war is peace freedom is slavery ignorance is strength
This has always been used as an example of a scary dystopian future we in America might see in a place like Russia or China. But that is not how it’s turned out. Instead we are seeing it play out here in the US…

Portrait of a Woman in 2020
Portrait of a Woman in 2020
Parts 1, 2, and 3
This is my attempt to visualize what a portrait of a woman would be if you could see her inner self as the covid debacle and the BLM movement took hold of America in the first half of 2020. What would you look like as the year has progressed so far?

I Draw in Church - Three Very Short Stories
I Draw in Church – Three Very Short Stories
She thought she was XX because of church but thought she was XY because of God.
The End.
The sermon caused her to search for her spiritual identity in the stars, not on the ground.
The End
She obsessed over Wor all during the service and didn’t regret it.
The End

‘Breathe’ "So I had the weirdest dream, do you want to hear it? Ok, I was in the middle of a pandemic and then it turned into some sort of protest over a guy who couldn't breathe and I tried to explain that they were both about not being able to breathe but all of a sudden I was in a fire and couldn't breathe when a woman in a mask brought me to safety and I was surrounded by black people saying they couldn't breathe and I was so scared I couldn't breathe but they all smiled and said 'just breathe' and then I woke.

"I'm Not Racist" and other lies I told myself.
“I’m Not Racist” and other lies I told myself.
I used to say both these things. Now I am older and wiser and don’t say them anymore. I don’t for at least two reasons. One, they weren’t (and aren’t) true and two, they didn’t (and don’t) help anything even if they were true.
So, why did I think they were true? Because I didn’t do anything immediately and concretely racist. I was consciously not racist as far as I could figure. I accepted…

The Hot Potato and Jesus
First napkin i’ve drawn in many, many months. We moved from Oklahoma to Texas and pretty much all my art has been on hold for all of 2020 so far. But to be honest, I wasn’t drawing on napkins much in 2019 either, or 2018. But I have been drawing in my sketchbook regularly and that held more interest for me so that is where I focused my attention.
Anyway, I wasn’t planning on doing a napkin…

Lessons For A Runner in the Time of Corona
Until quite recently I was a Running Coach. One of the things I would often ask as we gathered for our group warm up was this: Why are we here? Of course there are many reasons and we would go through all of them over the course of a season. But one reason in particular stood out recently when I went out for a run, my first since the Coronavirus situation hit hard here in Oklahoma.
Why are…

The Decision – An Illustrated Short Story
She couldn’t decide.
She wanted to go to the Forum where she could show off her new hairdo and earrings and watch wrestling and talk and eat and flirt and listen to people say profound things and maybe get a mani/pedi. She would see her friends and have fun, laughing and enjoying the day.
She didn’t want to walk all the way up the hill and look at disgusting dead people on crucifixes all by…

That’s Interesting I think this might make an interesting T-shirt for a lot of interesting women. They are busy with their interesting lives, doing interesting things and aren't interested in men being interested in them just because they look interesting. © 2020 Marty Coleman | napkindad.com
