āPassion, reason, custom, rules, Creeds of the churches, lore of the schools! Taint in the blood and strength of soul, Flesh too weak for the willās control- Poverty, riches, pride of birth, Wailing, laughter, over the Earth!

White ānā Wild!
A while ago here our Saint put up the video of House of the Rising Sun, by The Animals. Check out the adorable picture of that group on Wiki, all wearing matching non-faded denim jackets over white shirts. And on the video (Iām wondering why there even is a video; surely the song came out … Continue reading White ānā Wild!
Sumpān Funny
The chubby well-dressed (check out their blindingly white sneakers!) people streaming across our southern border are never going to qualify for asylum even if they do show up for a hearing. The definition of an asylum seeker is that you have to have been persecuted, or have a well-founded fear of persecution, because of you … Continue reading Sumpān Funny
America Needs a Divorce AND a PFAO
Donāt abusers always claim that they loooove their victim, love her more than anybody else ever could, thatās why nobody else can possibly understand that they HAVE to hurt her, even kill her! If we knew what they know about her, weād āunderstandā their actions, weād realize how much she needed, deserved, punishment, and that … Continue reading America Needs a Divorce AND a PFAO
Banning CRT
ā¦of course Iāve been reading about this ad Infinitum as you have. CRT is mad, bad, and dangerous to know. But WTF IS it? if we donāt know, how can we ban it? History is a huge, impenetrable labyrinth of facts. To tell a story, Or to reduce it to some narrative of which you … Continue reading Banning CRT
A Poet on Climate Alarmism
āā¦We may doubt the just proportion of good to ill. There is much in nature against us.

Flag-burning: Itās Not Just for Leftists Any More!
Or at least, it shouldnāt be, say I. I totally agree with the cases holding that American flag desecration is āsymbolic speechā. The flag IS a symbol, and anything you do to it, from saluting it to burning it, is symbolic speech. Soāgreat! Letās us get together and burn the Antifa flag. The BLM flag. … Continue reading Flag-burning: Itās Not Just for Leftists Any More!
The Limbless Knight
The Left is beginning to remind me of that battle in Monty python and the Holy Grail, where the challenger gets one arm lopped off, then the otherāand still taunts our hero to have at it. Even when both legs are gone, he justā¦keeps up the trash talk. For our side, Trump has cut off … Continue reading The Limbless Knight
Shipwrecked
How did we end up here, on this alien shore where we canāt insist on our OWN cultural prerogatives, canāt complain about āappropriationā by The Other of OUR unique treasures? Shakespeare, Marlowe, Milton were white. Okay? They couldnāt help it, they were born that way. Get the eff over it. Get your own pantheon,āitās fine, … Continue reading Shipwrecked
Trump et al. vs. āSocial Mediaā
I hafta admit, when I heard about this lawsuit I feltā¦skeert. Lemme just put it this way, it didnāt sound like a winner from a legal point of view. ( But before I go any farther, I do want to say that if he wins, mebbe we āuns should get together a class to sue … Continue reading Trump et al. vs. āSocial Mediaā
