I recently had a post on The Fourth Turning. Let me tell you why this concept resonates with me. It's because I've seen it in action. There's a term I used to use for the cohort that's in power now. Not the geezers pulling the strings, but the feet on the street true believers. The … Continue reading Class of ’96

Yesterday, Vox Day had a piece on the bloodletting at the Chicago Tribune. The media hasn’t been so much indifferent as sneeringly amused by the complaints of American workers whose jobs have been eliminated by the financial rapine of Wall Street under a false flag of creative destruction. But they aren’t sneering or laughing anymore … Continue reading Learn to Code
The Fourth Turning
Probably one of the best books to make sense of what's happening these days is "The Fourth Turning" by Strauss and Howe. I've mentioned it before. The concept is that every 80-90 years, those that are in power have not only forgotten the painful lessons from their forefathers, they flat out ignore them thinking they … Continue reading The Fourth Turning

I happened on a piece at Vox Day's Site, The Spartacus Letter. Links to this one. Lot of good info there, especially about how COVID works. My problem with it, as with most conspiracy theories, is the amount of moving pieces and points of failure. The US Government isn't like you see on 'Blacklist'. From … Continue reading Interesting…
Pay Your Fair Share!
They pumped old Uncle Joe full of adderall the other day, and stuffed him in front of the tele-prompter which told him to tell us that we need to pay our fair share, enough is enough. He used the same tone of voice he summoned to tell us he was out of patience with our … Continue reading Pay Your Fair Share!
Called it a Year Ago
Back when COVID first started, I wondered what the big deal was. It's a SARS virus. We know how they work, we know how to avoid them. Hell, Aesop was about the first to sing it. Stay away from infected people, wash your hands. Same thing you do to avoid the flu or cold. And … Continue reading Called it a Year Ago
Vax Psychosis
I'm not getting the vaccine fetish. I'm data driven. And we have tons of data on what works and what doesn't to prevent and cure COVID. Washing your hands, staying away from sick people works. Masks work to some extent, as does the vaccine. But the vaccine isn't anywhere near as effective as advertised. Not.Even.Close. … Continue reading Vax Psychosis
Called It
Biden came on the tube and declared everyone is out. At least everyone that wanted to come. What did I say? Right on cue, the narrative is starting. We got everyone out. They were all told with plenty of notice, and anyway they are dual citizens and wanted to stay. Sure. That's the hymn they'll … Continue reading Called It
You don’t see that every day…
Not around here anyway. The other day, I wound up behind one of these: From Right to left: a "Vote Blue" sticker, a "Joe Biden" sticker, and the one you can't really read - a "resistance" sticker. Got to be a transplant. The hardcore nuts around here usually festoon their cars with bumper stickers. They'll … Continue reading You don’t see that every day…
Words Fail…
It's been a hell of a week for the Biden administration. Or let me back up, the Grima Wormtongue that's actually running things. As usual others have said it better than me. Nearly anyone on my blog roll to the right has better analysis of things. I tend to like Adaptive Curmudgeon, Bayou Renaissance Man, … Continue reading Words Fail…
