Intelligence as Intimidation Factor

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 28, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliJune 28, 2011

How can it tank so fast? Another woman chickens out of meeting me, saying, “I didn’t expect to like you this much, this fast….While it’s true I am very intelligent, I am not really well read or informed on as many subjects as u and I don’t want to feel less-than, from the start.” So i guess I’m supposed to pretend i don’t know what i know, dumb myself down so as not to intimidate??? WTF? Do i have to go to a fucking Mensa meeting to find a woman who is NOT intimidated by the fact that i have … Continue reading →

8 Things I Learned From my Last Relationship

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 26, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 6, 2011

  [1] Proving your level of commitment should never entail losing who you are, putting yourself in danger, or turning over control of your money, your bills, or your happiness [2] If you don’t naturally and easily fit into a persons life, nor they into yours, is either not right or not right now [3] No matter how honest or stable a person may seem, you cannot be sure about it in only a few months [4] If a person shares a home with her mother and is not caring for her due to illness or disability, do not move … Continue reading →

Ignorance Revealed: Miss USA contestants on Evolution

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 23, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 5, 2011

The mindless regurgitation of these contestants sickens me. Most of these are stunning examples of the ignorance that still prevails in this country. Evolution is NOT a theory, in the colloquial sense. Scientific “theory” is not the same as the common definition of “theory.” That’s why I wish the scientific community would permanently change their references to it in some way, to clear up the misunderstanding. Since colloquial understanding usually RULES among the average person, we must begin to use terminology that leaves no room for erroneous interpretation. It is my contention that you are not entitled to respect or … Continue reading →

Lesbian films

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 21, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 5, 2013

One of my biggest peeves is that the films about lesbians are not held to the same standards as other films, probably because their target audience is so hungry to see stories about something they can relate to on a sexual orientation level. However, this should never be a reason to call a film good when it simply isn’t. And Then Came Lola is an example of that. No character development, a plot that is meaningless, situations that are contrived, and a story that was interspersed with some cartoon interludes that were unnecessary, incongruous and distracting. Some of the actresses … Continue reading →

Apostrophe Creature

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 17, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 6, 2013

In Hamlet, Shakespeare said, There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. Peeking at me from behind a tree We cannot pretend to understand all the mysteries of this world we live in. I came across one today while walking in the rain. I spotted something odd, and started taking pictures.  I’d never seen anything like it and still am not sure what it was. A creature of some sort, shaped like an apostrophe, but moving around of its own volition. It had little snail-like horns at the top of its head. … Continue reading →

Review of As You Were by ChaoticVulnerabilities

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 16, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 5, 2013

ChaoticVulnerabilities reviewed As You Were Excellent Read…left me wanting more December 30, 2010 WOW. I purchased this book simply caught up in the availability of lesbian romance novels at the touch of a button. My wifey gave me a Kindle for Christmas, spurring a desperate search for novels to use with my newfound “friend”. I don’t live near any specialty bookstores and lesbian novels are often very expensive for print copies. I went a little wild looking for romance stories I can relate to. This novel surpassed that! Others I’ve read were okay in content, horrible in spelling and grammar, … Continue reading →

Spider in my Car

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 12, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 6, 2013

My best friend called me not long ago, and in the middle of our conversation, she said, “Hang on, there’s a spider in my car and I have to pull over before I freak out.” She takes off her shoe to kill it and I warn her that shoes do not kill spiders. They have some kind of shield like on the Starship Enterprise, that engages. You smash them and they get up and walk away.  She claims to have injured it, but crippling a spider is not really crippling a spider–I mean there’s all those legs. You can break … Continue reading →

Tell Me About Yourself

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on June 4, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliJune 4, 2011

When I’m single, and meeting new women, dating and searching for that special someone who will fit harmoniously into my life, I often come across women who say “Tell me about yourself.” I hate that question. Not because i can’t talk about myself, or am not self-actualized enough to be able to communicate my identity, but because it’s like standing in a library and someone asking, “What’s in all those books?” I usually have the urge to refer them to my books, or blogs, or music or art. Then they say, “I don’t want to look at your art, or … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I haven't laid around this much since the womb."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

Is it just me, or is something wrong with Al Franken? Saw him on Stephanie Ruhl tonight. He seems off, like his brain isn't functioning. I've never seen him like that. Does he have a health issue?
