Just a beggar at the feast.
Even though most of us had no idea what had happened on November 8th until November 9th. I’ll never forget that day. I was one of those who was absolutely convinced that Hillary was going to be the 45th POTUS. But unlike those ridiculous girls in the featured image, I was aghast that that was […]
Jordan Peterson shared this animation by Nina Paley to his audience. I found it to be fascinating. Despite the synopsis on Vimeo, I didn’t find “the Goddess” to be a major part of the movie, which is mainly a telling of the story of Exodus. My favorite parts are the conversations that artist has with […]
Yep, it’s true, I forgot 9/11. Not that I forgot that it happened, or where I was that day. I was at 16 & M NW in downtown DC, about five blocks from the White House. I was working, of course, same thing I did today, in fact. What I mean is I woke up […]
Pewdiepie, who for many years was the biggest YouTuber ever (not anymore, btw), has surpassed 100 million subscribers. If you are amongst the culturally lost and damned and have never seen Pewdiepie, you’re really not missing anything. I’ve tried to watch some of his videos, and they are essentially gibberish. You’ll keep wondering, “when is […]
I noticed that there was no TSL last night, and no note or anything, either. I was just wondering if there was going to be one tonight, or just canceled for the week. I’ve been looking through the blog, but haven’t seen anything about it.
Y’all know by now that I have a soft spot for animals that enrich the lives of humans. I’m also a TAM, a Tammy Army Member, that is to say a fan of Tammy Bruce. She’s a reliable conservative voice of reason, a Fox News contributor, and an all-around good egg. This past weekend she […]
I recently canned my Facebook (and Twitter, why not?) account when I discovered that they were attempting to monitor my “offline” behavior to determine whether not I was a “hate agent”. Such behavior would include any kind of association with people like Tommy Robinson, Laura Loomer, Carl Benjamin, Milo, and Paul Joseph Watson. I expect […]
Lately I’ve been driving back forth between my home in northern Virginia, and Pittsburgh, PA. Along I-70, in Fulton County PA you get this amazing view of this beautiful valley that’s a patchwork of farms and pastures. I’m not sure what the name of the valley is, but it’s just north of Bethel Township. In […]
This time in India, where the incumbent party not only won, but won a crushing landslide. Btw, I don’t know if the BJP or INC are good or bad for running India. I’m just pointing out what is a very strong global trend of election polling not measuring up to results. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/india-election-results-modi-remains-favored-to-win-as-counting-starts/2019/05/22/830b9f60-7cb4-11e9-b1f3-b233fe5811ef_story.html
Forgive me if this has already been posted, but us Straoloungers saw the note Bill left last night. It’s always risky to speak for others, but I think it’s safe to say that the TSL crowd all wish her the speediest and least painful recovery. Also, Bill, don’t sweat it if we can’t do TSL […]
Daytime tv constantly probes new depths in the downfall of our culture. Today’s new low: Paternity Court. Where adulterous women attempt to prove that their children are their husband’s despite their numerous affairs. The various adulterers are displayed alongside the respective children to gauge their resemblance. At some point what I presume is the husdand’s […]
If you’re relatively insular, like me, you probably had no idea that there was an election about to happen in Australia. BTW, don’t knock relative insularity. While you get information a lot slower, you miss most of the misleading information that “breaks” when something actually happens. Those “pseudo-events” that Mark Levin keeps going on about […]
We lost another American icon today. Tardar Sauce, aka Grumpy Cat, has passed away due to complications from a bladder infection. I like cats, and I liked Grumpy Cat. Like her, I am broadly unamused by your shenanigans, and the human race in general. BTW, if you think it’s overblown to describe her as an […]
Anyone know of a weather reporting website that isn’t impregnated with various devotionals to the great consensus of anthropogenic climate change? You know, someplace where I can just find out what I need to wear when I step outside, and not much else.
Old fashioned banning-banning is about to make its triumphant comeback! I gotta imagine that there are a lot of folks in the so-called free world who are about sick of you thinking that you’re free to speak your mind. How many denizens of our own government are itching to push back against the “Chinese model” […]
