1. I have barely looked at the news in weeks and have frankly been much happier for it. After all, I have no power to affect anything that is in the news, and it’s going to affect me I’ll find out about it sooner or later. Not to mention that most of it is either … Continue reading Friday Flotsam: In the News, Invisible Man, and Folk Song

Meta-Knight Responds
Apparently, a code monkey with delusions of grandeur has decided to rebrand his evil corporation from 'Facebook' to 'Meta'. Because that doesn't sound presumptuous in the least, nor at all confusing given how common that word has become in our culture. Not least that I think a certain fan-favorite character - one known for his … Continue reading Meta-Knight Responds
Flotsam: Twenty Years Later
1. I try not to talk politics much here. I don’t have the background or knowledge as yet to say anything really worthwhile about it. So don’t ask me for a rundown of how the past twenty years have gone and what we as a nation have to show for it all, though I don’t … Continue reading Flotsam: Twenty Years Later
Flotsam
1. I am continually amazed, not just at how stupid, incompetent, and immoral our current societal elites really are, but also at the fact that so many of us continue to take them seriously. "Dr. Fauci says so-and-so." Okay, and why do you care what that careerist moron says, exactly? To say "I heard it … Continue reading Flotsam
Friday Flotsam: Pro-Life and Depression

Quick Word on Disconnection
Like many people these days, I'm looking into ways to deal with, shall we say, changing world circumstances. This is going to be a condensed version of my thoughts on this subject: I'll probably do something more fleshed out later. Short version of our current situation: our civilization rests upon extremely complex, delicate technology that … Continue reading Quick Word on Disconnection
Brief Current Events Thought
I have not been blogging lately in part because I've been simultaneously preoccupied with what is happening in our country and desirous of avoiding exposure to it as much as possible. Even small dips left me so angry as to be nauseous. But through one or two trusted sources (there are only a handful of … Continue reading Brief Current Events Thought
Forgotten Man at the Everyman
My latest post is up at 'The Everyman,' where I touch a bit on the present attempted coup. Law has no force of its own. It only has what it is given by those in charge of enforcing it, whether directly (in courts and legislatures) or indirectly (through public opinion). At the end of the … Continue reading Forgotten Man at the Everyman

The Five Stages of Election Fraud
Denial: “They’re not really doing this, right? No, surely even they wouldn’t dare…” Anger: “YOU CORRUPT, ARROGANT SONS-OF-*****! WHEN I GET A HOLD OF YOU…” Realism: “Yeah, what’d you expect? These are the great ones of this world; the people who sell their souls for the power to impose their brain-dead views on everyone else. … Continue reading The Five Stages of Election Fraud
