  • Where the elite meet…

    I got tired of Brownstone a long time ago. They publish some hardass articles but their main goal is providing high-level Salons and Retreats for elite types. By participating in these Retreats, the elites can feel like they’re rebelling without actually rebelling. Just like Goths and Antifa and Bitcoin and Tea Party and Occupy and…

  • What’s the opposite?

    I was reading the list of today’s official Days. One of them is Dewey Decimal Day. In my sleepless haze I thought of decimal as the metric opposite of English or Imperial. Well, what’s the English version? LC. It’s based on a set of 21 letters, and then an irregular group of lettered subsets under…

  • Obama COULD have fixed this.

    Violence does sometimes work. When the entire political and court system is totally fucked, doing nothing but pure damage EVERYWHERE, ruining people here and bombing foreign countries, there’s no other option. Other insurers are starting to change their ways to avoid the same fate. Obama knows how to run a movement, but the one time…

  • Obama gets it right

    Religion News Service cites a recent article by Obama. = = = = = START QUOTE: What does build trust, because it builds relationships, is people banding together to get stuff done. Whether it’s a mosque and a synagogue joining forces to help victims of a natural disaster, or a Black community linking up with…

  • ALL is all.

    Time for my occasional salute to good old Kedit. I’ve been using it since 1984, and I’ve tried all the alleged substitutes and replacements. Nothing comes close. My life and work is centered around Kedit, specifically the ALL keyword, which has no equivalent in any other program. I use standard phrases in my daily life…

  • Flipping their duties

    Trump will appoint an AI and Bitcoin Czar to steer the government toward funding and encouraging those activities. In plain language, the government will now be funding and encouraging massive copyright theft, job destruction, and perpetual motion swindles. For 200 years the copyright and patent offices, the post office, and other regulators, have been trying…

  • The fact is there but unseen

    Here’s an article in a “journalism” trade publication that actually cites a fact for once, but dismisses the fact. The author asks whether loss of trust in media causes people to tune out, or tuning out causes loss of trust. Given the author’s profession, she naturally concludes that people lost trust AFTER they stopped watching…

  • Not learning

    New Scientist mag might be quieting down in an attempt to avoid scandal, but Anti-Nature is running full blast into wild-eyed genocidal tyranny, exceeding both Robespierre and Hitler in its love of death and destruction by the wargod of “science”. Smashing the peasants, asking why governments who enthusiastically implemented both the “Climate” lunacy and the…

  • How new is this?

    After the CEO of a “health” insurance firm was killed, plenty of commentators are sympathizing with the universal hatred toward “health” insurance. The industry has naturally grown worse since Romneycare aka Obamacare, designed by the Heritage Institution, gave the industry a legally forced monopoly. Guaranteed monopolies MUST be sternly regulated. Strictness is the PRICE for…

  • Exactly 100 years ago

    Adam Kuznia, a Minnesota farmer, has started writing on Substack. He’s carrying on a clever campaign to get a proper Agriculture subject category on Substack, so people who want to know about farming or write about farming can find it easily. Henry Wallace, father and son, fought the same battle on a larger scale to…

  • Learning a bit?

    I wonder if the mess at SciAm has influenced the other big “science” mags. The latest NewScientist, published on Nov 16, seems to avoid politics entirely. There’s a heapin helpin of Climate nonsense, but nothing at all about populists or authoritarians or fascists or “low-intelligence” peasants or Trump or Brexit. Measuring a nonbark is always…

  • Just one fucking rule.

    If you think people are “uneducated” or “low-information” or “ignorant”: You’re truly uneducated and ZERO-information and perfectly ignorant of ALL reality. Aside from right or wrong, these insults will NOT change things or fix any problems. You have to deal with actual human beings. You can’t kill them all and build 8 billion brand-new people…

  • Should be too obvious for words

    While I’m at it… Many commentators are calling Trump’s victory a defeat for liberalism or technocracy or other isms or ologies. It’s simpler. The Dems chose to lose. In 2016 and 2024 they COULD have run a candidate with a PROVEN record of attracting working class voters. Bernie Sanders was MASSIVELY popular. His rallies drew…

  • Two weird responses

    There are two bizarre responses to Biden pardoning his son. We expect Repoofs to treat it as unique, just as Dems treat everything Trump does as unique, EXCEPT for the ONE HUGE MONSTROUS HISTORY-ENDING UNIQUE CRIME OF IMPRISONING AND STRANGLING AND CLOSING THE ENTIRE FUCKING COUNTRY, which both “sides” have completely memoryholed now. Didn’t happen.…

  • The BEST Mutual Benefit Society

    New thought: I’ve been missing the best and most modern example of MBS! Native tribes! They’re FRATERNAL with a vengeance, in a way that would be blatantly illegal for other ethnic groups. Cherokees have been kicking out Pretendians for a century, requiring serious genealogical proof of bloodlines. There’s a good reason for the strictness: WEALTH.…
