Scripturient: Have Conservatives Finally Become Irredeemable?
In the past, whenever I read news about any conservative leader, party or government — small-c conservative, including the Canadian federal and provincial Conservative parties, the American Repugnicans, and the British Tories — I always have to ask myself, “Can they get any more corrupt than this?” Then I ask,
Continue readingSaskboy's Abandoned Stuff: Plague Update: Exploding Measles Threat
No, the latest measles don’t make you explode, I meant the threat is rising thanks to anti-waxxer ignorance spreading across the globe. And war, that’s infamously good at helping disease take hold of the population. Many of the people in charge of stopping health ignorance and control of diseases, have
Continue readingA Puff of Absurdity: Climate Misery and Hope
Despair limits future actions, but knowledge is power. We must know and act in order to stave off despair. A depressing thread followed by an uplifting video today: Writer Matthew Todd wrote, “Sooner or later we’re going to have to face the reality that conservatism and capitalism are killing us. It’s not
Continue readingThings Are Good: Let’s End Gas Subsidies
For some strange reason countries like Canada keep giving tax money to ultra wealthy oil and gas companies even though they keep killing all life on the planet. Let’s stop this. The team at Solar Share hosted a good information session on how we can reduce government money going to
Continue readingA Puff of Absurdity: Climate Projections and Anticipatory Grief
Media aren’t free to report on it honestly, and politicians won’t act on it. How can we possibly remain optimistic? Matthew Todd wrote about the possibility that the Gulf Stream could collapse in the next few years based on an study in Science Advances: “The day has come when the Daily
Continue readingDead Wild Roses: Transactivists Are Annoying
Nothing gets the juices flowing more than a little woke hypocrisy in the afternoon. Scrolling through facebook I saw a post for a choral get together with the goal of showing “the transphobes” how wrong they are. My first reaction was one of exasperation because the individual who

. The FAFO factor often involves the highest of stakes. The people who support Hamas really ought to give their head a shake because most of their activities place them firmly in the useful idiot category. These excerpts from Susie Linfield‘s essay on called The Return of the Progressive Atrocity.

Yes, I get the reason some people might have been outraged that a white guy (Johnny Depp) played an indigenous person in the 2013 movie version of The Lone Ranger. It seemed, at least from the outside at the time — before watching it — to reinforce stereotypes and denigrate
Continue readingThings Are Good: Norway Gamed Oil to Get Rich and Go Green
Norway figured out how to make money from its oil while going green, and other countries should learn this nifty trick. Yes, oil is bad and we need to stop using it right away to avoid climate collapse. What Norway has done is take their bad oil and export it

Here we go again, I guess… The first of the manipulations, and the center of how it works, is the collectivization of the “LGBTQ2 community.” This thing does not exist meaningfully. It’s not even a genuine coalition. Gay people, and so on, exist, but that acronym represents nothing but a

Throughout his career, Marcus Tullius Cicero fought tyranny, stood up to dictators and bullies, defended the Republic, and paid for his principled stand with his life. He put himself in harm’s way frequently by openly challenging and even suing the elites, the rich, and the powerful who were controlling —

I’ve written extensively and in depth, for decades, in two published books and over a thousand published articles, with tens of thousands of references, on the rapidly shifting state of the world, the causes and major factors and historical unfolding of these changes, what it all means and entails, and

Why don’t we notice all the people getting sick or being disable or dying from Covid? A couple years ago, I wrote about being harassed for wearing a mask on my bike by some dude in his truck, and a couple people mentioned that they couldn’t believe that happened because

To be brief: The obsession with quantity and volume has to end. More is not always better. Quality matters most. But people in the 21st century are addicted to endless entertainment, distraction, empty and largely useless talk, and endless amounts of “news” and commentary. Unless we step back, pause, reflect,

Catch the article in the National Post. Last November, the Post ran a column by transwoman Julia Malott who allegedly supports my right to free expression but simultaneously believes that my “persona” has devolved and that I’ve become divisive and resentful. The devolution, she wrote, occurred during my three-year-and-counting

Paris is undergoing a transportation revolution that champions the movement of people over the movement of vehicles and the most recent change was put to the people of the city. Citizens of Paris have voted to triple parking fees for heavy, road destroying, SUVs that take up more space than

This is a full repost of Amy Eileen Hamm’s article from the New West Times. It is important that news like this gets proper exposure and to illustrate how the MSM is not doing its job. Plus it gets it on Facebook around the stupid news censorship in Canada.
