The Fap Cult

Everyone Already Home Schools

Everyone Already Home Schools

... so why pay the state to propagandize your kids for an additional seven hours a day? Author and educator David V. Stewart lodges this objection--among many others--to our schools' pointless habit of assigning children homework. I think that the benefits to homework are pretty much nil, and it's nothing…

The Death of the Mid List

The Death of the Mid List

... has not been highly exaggerated. As megabestsellers command more of publishers’ marketing budgets and retailers’ shelf space, breaking out the next crop of hit makers has become a challenge.

A Diabolical Mockery

A Diabolical Mockery

I'm fond of pointing out that Progressivism is no longer--if it ever was--a political ideology, and is in fact a fanatical Death Cult which manifests as a heresy and mockery of Christianity. Some have asked exactly what the Death Cult's relationship to Christianity is and how it broke off from the…

The Finders’ Keepers

The Finders’ Keepers

Give Them Nothing

Give Them Nothing

Two indie creators who are wise to Hollywood's contempt for its own audience have determined what must be done--or rather, what must not be done. First up, best selling author and comic book writer Jon Del Arroz exhorts dissenting consumers to starve the Pop Cult beast. We know the story’s going…
