On Ukraine, corruption, joining the WEF and why we should be there.

I see the conflict as nothing to do with Ukraine and the corrupt politicians there-in, but entirely on stopping the expansionist and war crime committing Kremlin in Moscow. The governments of the world (mostly derelict in their duties to their own people) need to stand up for the sovereignty of nations where those nations are […]

Youtuber Tod’s Workshop on Movie and TV props, weapons and replicas

From comments on and in the video about Woke Tolkien and wall hangers (replica swords that are not made to be used, just look pretty) I remembered Tod working on items for The Witcher TV series and found a number of videos to link, in case someone wanted to see behind the scenes and hear […]

Rey is a Mary Sue and Luke Skywalker is not

I was tumbling around on Youtube and came across a channel named Literature Devil. He had a video with the title above and a snarky but enjoyable way of speaking.  He even has a simple way to re-write the beginning of the latest trilogy that would have made it significantly better… at as far as […]

A video on Taffy-3

  A video by Drachinifel (a naval historian youtuber) that I think is about the battle group Bill and Steve mention at times. This historian has a wry whit that made me laugh though since I haven’t studied the battle I don’t know how accurate his characterizations are.   I thought I would share the […]

Libel, Slander and Newspapers

I was listening to a local radio guy talking about reports about Guiliani in the various bird cage liners that he had been warned by the FBI about being targeted by the Russians and yada yada you’ve probably all read about being retracted now.   The radio guy was panning them for using “anonymous sources” […]

How I mentally separate people, when considering if “they deserve it”

copied and edited from a recent comment about cancelling Karens, for the potential use or commenting by others… When it comes to the political divisions I split people into three kinds, for the most part. There are the activist Leftists who include those people in positions of power either through a microphone or politics, who […]

A response to the gun banners from Gary Larson

Might not be his response exactly, and while the cartoon was posted to his site today it actually dates back a while (some time in 1986 I would guess from the copywrite)   https://www.thefarside.com/2021/02/25/4   (it looks like they are doing some trickery that won’t let me just download the image or link to it […]

Mr Bean on Free Speech … in 2012

I was stumbling around Youtube for background noise while doing other things and this popped up in the list. It seems it was posted on this particular channel two years ago but is from a speech or event in 2012 based on some of the comments although the sentiment is timeless and certainly timely. Rowan […]

Conservatives in Hollywood

Can you name a TV show cast (mostly alive, not currently running) that would be willing to do a public fundraising effort for Republicans? That was essentially the topic an evening show host had on the radio around here last night (WTMJ for other Wisconsinites) and my first thought was “Oh you poor, naive fool!”  […]

A LARPer’s Lament

I’ve been reading various Kenosha related articles and came across this one from back in July https://spectator.org/a-larpers-lament-in-austin/ where the author makes the same observation Bill did in a BW NOW episode I think (might have been his Right Angle) He makes the same point in his article about Kenosha I read (and which lead me […]

Open Broadcaster Software

Posting from my phone because I have a bit of time while out making service calls and I fear I will forget when I get home…

Does anyone remember when Scott might have mentioned what streaming software they use?

Alternately is there a search feature I missed?

The Meme Fairy

I forget which episode it was, but there was commentary recently about a Elizabeth Warren idea to create a meme team for her campaign.

When I saw this comic today I thought of that and decided I needed to share it in case any one else would get a laugh or want to save it as instructional material.

A brit speaking about the history of the right to bear arms

This is much a test as anything else, but I came across this video at the same time I saw the simpler Youtube linky feature so I thought it would make a good test.

A Brit (so he gets a few things wrong, though commenters do post corrections) lists some of the historical events that led to the various laws and regulations in England.  Some of the history was new to me (and other bits refreshed my memory) so I thought it might be interesting to others here.

Ron Johnson is my Senator

I missed the Sunday talk show that has Chuck Todd’s face on it (but I miss them all every Sunday) but today I heard a few parts of the interaction between Ron Johnson and Chuck Todd. After the clips I heard I wonder why Ron would ever bother going on the show but he’s a […]

A joke in a bar

Saw this today.  Sadly was written in all caps. I laughed so I thought I’d share. Maybe you’ll laugh too.     A CNN REPORTER WALKS INTO A NEIGHBORHOOD TAVERN AND IS ABOUT TO ORDER A DRINK WHEN HE SEES A GUY AT THE END OF THE BAR WEARING A “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” HAT. […]
