Scripturient: Accuracy, Licence, and the Death of Stalin
One of my favourite movies in my collection — seen three times already on DVD or Blu-ray but likely to be seen more — is the 2017 satire, The Death of Stalin, directed by Armando Iannucci. Wikipedia describes it as depicting: “…the internal social and political power struggle among the

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I’ve been listening to men grandstand about women’s reproductive rights, and I’m convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here’s why… If you want to stop abortion, you

This quote from GAG illustrates exactly how gender ideology has unscrupulously inserted itself into our society and institutions. It subverts ideas and twists programs that sound like what they once were but now align with the tenets of regressive gender ideology. This is why it so hard to convince low

Hey there, conservatives (especially you conservative males!), let’s talk about the Barbie movie. Yes, I know nothing makes you want to take your AR-15 to the local Toys ‘R Us for a well-deserved shoot-up than a film about a girl’s toy (please don’t do it!). I mean, how dare anyone

“What do we hope will happen? Our recommendation begins by calling upon all major universities to begin a thorough review of these areas of study (gender studies, critical race theory, postcolonial theory, and other “theory”-based fields in the humanities and reaching into the social sciences, especially including sociology and anthropology),

A Poisoned Environment The Ontario Human Rights Commission states that a poisoned environment is a form of discrimination. An example given is a man who claims to possess invisible female essence being forced to use the men’s room at work. This can lead to a “hostile and oppressive atmosphere.”

“If a child is suffering you don’t get to convince them that changing their gender, which they can’t actually do, will free them from pain. You don’t get to do that. You don’t get to tell girls with mental health issues that they will be freed from those struggles if

Commonsense at its finest.

Trans activism is anti-reality, anti-female activism. It always has been. People just see it now. #NoSpaceForHate Except for Women

Gender ideology is insidious. Read the entire essay here. “Jeannette Cooper never imagined she’d lose custody of her child. The 44-year-old lifelong educator always considered herself a loving and responsible mother to her daughter Sophia. But when, at age 12, Sophia suddenly claimed to be transgender, Jeannette was skeptical.

I‘ve hesitated to write this review because, of all the films in the Godzilla franchise, I dislike the campy-cute, family-friendly Minilla, the so-called “son” of Godzilla. Minilla appears in three films: Son of Godzilla, Destroy All Monsters, and Godzilla: Finals Wars, but the most saccharine of them is this one:

I was once introduced to a new colleague who made very direct, sustained eye contact, and I thought to myself as I spoke with him: he’s on track to be in admin. He just seemed the type to make connections and get ahead and would likely end up at the board

The first cropped photo is what activists would like you to see. The unedited version of the same photo is what pride is at the moment and what they do not want you to see. There is no pride in ‘liberating’ activities that do not belong in the public sphere.

In 1966, the original director of the Godzilla series, Ishiro Honda, left to do other projects and left the next film — Ebirah, Horror of the Deep, aka Godzilla vs the Sea Monster — in the hands of director Jun Fukuda. At the same time, composer Akira Ifukube was replaced

Can a movie featuring aliens, dinosaurs, spaceships, one of the main actors from Star Wars, and a giant asteroid about to crash into the planet be bad? Sadly, yes. The movie 65 manages to take what could a been another Godzilla or Kong: Skull Island. instead, it’s a watered-down Jurassic
