Today is 9/11. It Is Time To Honor Nicholas P. Pietrunti

Nicholas P. Pietrunti was Deaf fellow who worked at Cantor Fitzgerald at World Trade Center, working at 105th floors when the plane crashed and he perished.  He was a member of Staten Island Club of the Deaf and beloved fellow of Deaf friends in New York City.

When I visited New York last year, I made it clear that I must pay the respects to this fellow at World Trade Center.  

Today is 9/11/20.  That means what?  it has been 19 years since his death.  Please post and mention his name.  He does not deserve to have his name slip into the great void and be forgotten.  We need to remember him as well.

His name was and still is Nicholas P. Pietrunti.

All About Bay Area, California

I was in Bay Area.  I have to say one thing:  Bay Area is fucked up.  And you can thank Mark Zuckerberg and Peter Thiel for that.  They totally destroyed the region.  I absolutely cannot see how anyone can fix it up.

As for me, I'd prefer to stay put in Pocatello to ensure that no "little" Silicon Valley will fuck this town up. And you need to make sure that your town(s) does not allow these companies do the same thing.  Let San Francisco be an example to you all.

Thyst Bar on Zoom

After watching /the social dilemma_ on Netflix, I have decided to back away from Facebook for a long time.  Its algorithms are nothing but a troubling part of what is wrong with me, Silicon Valley and the Bay Area.

It is true that I went to Bay Area last weekend for 6 days.  What I have observed is quite horrifying thing to see. More on that later.  

But first things first, I want to re-start the blogging that will focus on my thoughts, interests and aspirations.

Every Wednesday, I host Thyst Bar on Zoom and it is primarily for LGBTIQA+ and its allies.  Feel free to join on Wednesdays.  Sometimes I get inebriated with friends on Wednesdays but that's alright, right?

Sometimes, upon request only by Mikey Krajnak, Thyst Bar would and did take over Deaf Bears on Thursdays if needed.
