I am an addict. I have two books going in codex form, and one on my Kindle. But I cannot not check email and visit āmyā blog sites, including this one. I cannot not check the news. Itās a longing, a deep restlessness. Where is the world? Ah! Yes Iām sucking at the worldās teat … Continue reading Baalfire

āFine Peopleā Redux
In an attempt to depose the current King of Late Night, Greg Gutfeld, the Left is now accusing him of Anti-Semitism. itās a reprise of what they did with Trump, who said (far too generously in my view) that there were āfine people on both sidesā of the debate about removing statues of Confederate heroes. … Continue reading āFine Peopleā Redux
Snow What?
Youāre gonna be reading a lot about the new ālive actionā Snow White movie and about how the old version promoted sexual aggression (maybe even necrophiliaš±) so I just thought Id set ya straight. Ive read so much about folklore over the years that I canāt separate out my sources. (I think mostly Marina Warner, … Continue reading Snow What?
Not Okay
I hate when youāre talking to someone, you tell them some fact and they respond, āOkayā¦.?ā It sounds like theyāre saying: āIām not sure whether I believe you, but Iāll play along for now.ā it sounds like, āWellā¦if you say soā¦ā Or, like āI donāt really care WHAT you do.ā Or know, or say. Iād … Continue reading Not Okay
The Emperorās New Mask
America has gone insane. Yeah, I know youāre thinking āTell us sumpān we donāt know!ā Okay: masks donāt work! Or did you know that? Think about it: weāre, talkinā microbes here. When you suck in air, which is tortuously hard to do wearing even one of those party-favor lite paper masks, the virus is tiny … Continue reading The Emperorās New Mask
Is it just me?
Okay, 2 years and seven months later, am I the only person who does NOT think Jan 6, 2021 was so ..awful, so ādeplorableā, if you will? I admire those people. They went right to the seat of power, in broad daylight, to make their voices heard. They did not, like those āprotestersā in the … Continue reading Is it just me?
For July 4th
Do you ever go into a fantasy about living centuries ago? Sometimes it happens to me, it takes me over: Iām in a stone castle, I see the main hall filled with warriors toasting their lord celebrating some victory, there is mead, wine, there is blood still oozing from the walking wounded, , the smell … Continue reading For July 4th
If Trump Were Offered the Chance to Plead To a Misdemeanor, do you Think Heād Take It?
..because thatās what has been offered to everybody else who ever took classified documents. Of course, Sandy Berger ( the Clinton sycophant guy who stuffed the docs down his panties next to his pisser) and that guy last year who was boasting about posting the docs on social media were not presidents nor former presidents … Continue reading If Trump Were Offered the Chance to Plead To a Misdemeanor, do you Think Heād Take It?
The Awful Change
I will miss human history, once I am part of it. Decades ago I set out to learn all I could about history and anthropology. I was the explorer. Sparkling, vivid against the backdrop of the past. āI, the heir of all the ages, in the foremost files of time!ā as a Tennyson put it. … Continue reading The Awful Change
Weāre Screwed.
Trump has been indicted in connection with the classified documents investigation. Iām so discouraged right now. He will get clear of it eventually. But too late for 2024. The injustice is stunning. Biden (who hd no authority to declassify) took a whole bunch of stuff. Nobody is even talking about that now. The Dems are … Continue reading Weāre Screwed.
