    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-12-21) Nautica's Voyage (2006) I went with something more modest today. Voyage is in a word verdant and green despite its blue color and nautical name. It is no way sweet even though it has apple as a note. It is a musky leaf smell that is unsuspecting and not really...

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-11-21) Dior's Dior Homme Cologne (2013) / The Parts of a Fragrance Things are starting to heat up down here in Louisiana, and so that means it's time to bring my brighter citrus fragrances out of hibernation as we get near to 70 Fahrenheit. One of my most capable...

    [WV] Fragrance: Of Art and Transcendence

    Well a little secret about me is that I'm very awkward but also expressive making for a very interesting body language. I try with my images to somehow express the character of the fragrance based on how I'm holding it. For New York Nights I was going for a partier in the snap of the moment...

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-10-21) Bond No. 9's New York Nights (2017) / My Ode to Celebration This is one of the newest additions to my collection, and it is the embodiment of playful joy. It is what we call a "gourmand" which means it is pulling on foody notes in its smell. This one has a base...

    TNPU Redux: The Community Center

    I find TNPU even though it is not so active a vital aspect of our region because it allows real world connections between people of shared interests to come together, and that very possibility being here in TNP says a lot about the quality of community that is both possible and actualized. I...

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-9-21) Creed's Aventus (2010) / The Story of a Game Changing Fragrance & My Basicness I bring to you a fragrance that single handedly revolutionized the fragrance world at the beginning of the 2010s decade, a fragrance that cemented that fact that I am a basic boo...

    [WV] Fragrance: Of Art and Transcendence

    Indeed. Where the ceiling lights are located all light is behind me except a lamp to my right. I may change up my tactics in the future when I move to more interpretive still images of the fragrance's character. For the time being, there is nothing to be done.

    [WV] Fragrance: Of Art and Transcendence

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-8-21) By Killian's Bamboo Harmony (2012) / The Designer-Niche Distinction Today I decided on Bamboo Harmony. It is a very fresh and realistic tea fragrance that evokes themes of walking through east Asian fields filled with verdant tea plants as one sniffs their...

    [WV] Fragrance: Of Art and Transcendence

    @Marcus Antonius JOOP! is absolutely classic. I find it is held as a very important 20th century fragrance that helped usher in the modern market. JOOP is often used as an archetype by which newer fragrances may be compared.

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-7-21) Yves Saint Laurent's L'Homme (2006) This is a splendid gem that I use when I am looking for something that is versatile. It's good in all four seasons and can be a pleasant wear no matter what the occasion might be. It mixed well with the incense of this...

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-6-21) Creed's Erolfa (1992) / Testing and Getting Acquainted With a Fragrance Today I continue the Creed parade by wearing Erolfa. Now, I will say upfront that I do not currently own this fragrance but have a sample vial. A few weeks past I was touring the fragrance...

    [WV] Fragrance: Of Art and Transcendence

    No, this is a perfectly valid and fair question. I think sea salt is a good way of describing it. It definitely smells like a spice but does not have a herbal or peppery quality you would associate with most spices. Millesime Imperial is also described as a "marine" fragrance which means it...

    Wondo's Daily Wearing (3-5-21) Creed's Millesime Imperial (1995) It didn't take me long to reveal my highest treasure of my fragrance collection which I am dawning today. This is my signature scent, my emperor, the fragrance that represent me in full. Millesime Imperial has been a companion of...

    [GA - PASSED] Protecting the Rights of Labour Unions

    I fail to see how you stop incessant suing legally. People within a union who decide to begin a vendetta against an organization will find something to sue for. Obviously that clause is keeping the union from becoming corrupt in its aims by being a mere pro employer front. The issue of suit...

    Ban Hate from TNP Act

    This is very on point for me, but I think it is important to consider. If TNP wishes to start making moral or value claims, then it has to have a cogent and explicit understanding of what it will and will not tolerate in its community. Things like fascism and transphobia for instance need to be...

    saintpeter for Justice - Make/Keep TNP Great (Again)

    Cringe campaign theme aside . . . There seemed to be a noticeable lethargy in the Court this term causing anticipated rulings to be delayed for quite some time. Is there a reason for this, and can there be some guarantee of greater procedural efficiency going forward?

    [GA - PASSED] Gay Panic Defense Ban

    Once again, I don't like that everything is being framed these days in terms of post modern ideologies, and eventually I will have to start opposing that language because too many of those resolutions on the books will start to create too much of a tradition or norm of using that rationale, but...

    [GA - PASSED] Repeal: “Fairness in Collective Bargaining”

    This is an often considered bar of WA literature. How much specificity in meaning is too extreme, and then how much is too little. We aren't accustomed to 12 page long proposals that define every nook and cranny of definitions and stipulations, and I honestly would not like to see that as that...

    The CARE Act

    I once proposed something of a similar sort which I labeled as honorary citizenship rather than medals. That had to be at least more than a year ago. I feel now that I am concerned that something like this will lead to a high school popular contest culture. Rewarding someone formally is...
