When it comes to a man like Stan Lee, one must either write a whole book or a single short statement, and I will do the latter. Stan Lee, the mastermind of the Marvel ComicUniverse, creator and co-creator of the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, the X-Men, and countless other classic characters, has passed away at the age … Continue reading RIP Stan Lee
Current Events
Sonic, Tails, and Michael Moore
I happened on a piece saying that propagandist Michael Moore's recent anti-Trump film has thoroughly bombed at the box office. Sonic and Tails might have an idea why
Thoughts on the Church Abuse Scandal
I have been delayed in writing about this due to being on vacation, and from arranging my thoughts. Even so, this is going to be a very rough outline. Despite taking so much time, I still find my thoughts in disarray, just because there is so much to talk about and so much of it … Continue reading Thoughts on the Church Abuse Scandal
A Thought on Aretha Franklin
More specifically, on some of the responses to her death. I'm a Detroit native, and for that city the death of Aretha Franklin is as the death of a home-grown President or war hero. She was a major and beloved figure in the city's history and culture, all the more so because, unlike many of … Continue reading A Thought on Aretha Franklin
Privilege in Action
I'm a little late on this, but it's too good not to share. This is a textbook example of why I despise the whole concept of 'privilege' (be it 'white privilege,' 'male privilege,' or what have you). To sum up, the incomparable Larry Correia, sci-fi / fantasy author extraordinaire, had been invited to Origins Game … Continue reading Privilege in Action
In Flanders Fields
Fitting words both for the day and in relation to my last post: In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt … Continue reading In Flanders Fields
A Reminder of What We Are Thanking Them For
Today is Memorial Day in the United States, where we honor the memory of the soldiers who gave their lives for our country. In the land that once was England, meanwhile, we are given an object lesson in what they laid down their lives to defend us from. Activist Tommy Robinson, who is known to … Continue reading A Reminder of What We Are Thanking Them For
Anti-Gun is not Pro-Life
[Note: I wrote this piece for another site, but since it doesn't seem to be being published there I'm putting it here. It's intended as a bit of a companion piece to my most recent 'Federalist' article]. I’ve heard some people talking about the recent student march in Washington saying things like “it’s really a … Continue reading Anti-Gun is not Pro-Life
How Did This Happen?
With the ongoing flood of celebrities, politicians, and people in power being accused of sexual harassment, some people are wondering how this happened? Well, there are a few things that might have factored in: You said that sex didn’t have to mean anything. You said monogamy was outdated and unnatural. You said pornography was harmless … Continue reading How Did This Happen?
One Year On
I don't talk politics very much because it depresses me. Besides which, my own political ideas are pretty fringe at the moment and I'm not seeing anything good coming in the next few years. I typically vote Republican because the Democratic Party is absurdly evil (they literally have 'kill babies' as a major part of … Continue reading One Year On
