  • Conner, what a great blessing you have stepped forward. I helped Guy for years trying to find a digital footprint for your dad. Guy has wonderful memories to share of your dad as a baby and toddler. He is fully aware he was misrepresented by his ex when your dad ...

  • Something you said made me remember something someone said to me in jail with a straight face. I was asked, "Do you know why most people leave Jesus behind in jail?" I said, "No." The reply was, "So he is there when they get back." I did not laugh. After ...
    on Peeling off the dead weights (Part 4) by Jennifer Johnson May 13, 2024
  • Dymitri, I updated the transcription with paragraph breaks. I know philoosophy and sociology is your gig. But I had a big smile seeing an admitted agnostic quoting a reverend. Explain how that happened...I assume organically? I need to include you, brother, on a conversation I've been having with multiple people, ...
    on I Don't Wanna be a Pinhead No More: Thomas Merton, Rehabilitation, and Brainwashing by Dymitri Haraszewski Jan. 31, 2026
  • Is language a weapon? Recently, we had a conversation about the use of the word ‘offender’ in relation to systemic bias towards those convicted of a crime or those who admit to doing something via a plea agreement. Is offender a different word from inmate or prisoner? Yes. It is ...

  • Dymitri, I wrote you a long, detailed snail mail on December 29, 2025. Perhaps longer than may be entertaining, but you asked a few questions that weren't quite ideal in their possible use as cannon fodder for the masses. Another comment from this reply to my post. Speaking of that ...
    on Music to My Ears (Like a Gun to My Head) by Dymitri Haraszewski Jan. 31, 2026
  • There is very sad truth in these words. Beautifully stated, it points to the deep disconnect between the criminal justice system and any sense of rehabilitation, penitence, repentence, and even common sense. Justice, giving what is due, is not a description of the American prison system. It is daunting to ...
    on Most Obvious Indications You're Losing Your Mind In Prison by Eric Wilkes Feb. 12, 2026
  • I was disappointed to see you did not get my snail mail. Of course I can reprint it and I can also send you an update from two and a half months later! My tieing the troll to "Whispers," is simply the hate posts got particularly hateful after you posted ...
    on Music to My Ears (Like a Gun to My Head) by Dymitri Haraszewski March 10, 2026
  • Dymitri, I could not find your other post to me, but I know I read it this morning. In any case, I know exactly what you said. I was so shocked you did not catch my mocking sarcasm. You were the one, D! who taught me to say, "No?" in ...
    on Music to My Ears (Like a Gun to My Head) by Dymitri Haraszewski March 10, 2026
  • D- I understand your appreciation of AI that recognized your deft use of rhetoric, logic, and wit. However, although a mechanical analysis of a dialogue may reveal broad brush perceptions about the participants, it fails to see its effect on casual observers. Words not used about T: troll, hater, vitriol, ...
    on What The Robots Thought Of My Rebuttal by Dymitri Haraszewski March 31, 2026
  • D- The 2 people inside I referenced are M & B. M, inside editor (I also had an outside editor), entered the system as a child & once inside the system, through negative interactions with other inmates, was sentenced under his state's 3-strike law. You are aware, I vehemently oppose ...

  • For anyone that by great chance, would read this post, you should know that Chuck lost his fight against the death penalty of his state. Until Americans understand the cruelty of the death penalty, elderly Americans will continue to be executed, after decades of incarceration. It is not the same ...
    on Texas Prisons Denial Of Air Conditioning Is Cruel & Unusual by Charles Thompson April 2, 2026
  • "You talking to me? You talking to me? You talking to me? Then who the h*ll else are you talking... you talking to me? Well, I'm the only one here." Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the Paschal Full Moon (the first ecclesiastical full moon occurring on or ...
    on What's In My Private Journal? (Eater Sunday) by Dymitri Haraszewski April 4, 2026
  • James, the differrence between CGI and AI is the content. CGI is created by humans using computer graphic tools available to create fairly realistic cartoons around human characters or characters with human voices. AI is computer generated content, with inages created by computers and that content voiced by computers. The ...
