More Music Ground Zero

In case you missed it, author and musician David V. Stewart recently did a couple of videos in which he ranked heavy metal albums. One video ranked Metallica's discography, while the follow up graded Megadeth's catalogue (on the front end of his Final Fantasy V stream). Both are highly worth watching.…

Final Fantasy IV Rydia

A Storytelling Triumph

During last night's Retro-spective stream, my cohosts Dorrinal and Catholic Lancer mentioned how much of a storytelling triumph Final Fantasy IV is. It's said of many classic works in counterculture circles, but FFIV is the kind of game you couldn't get made today. The plot features multiple redemption arcs, public…
Roll Up Your Sleeves

Roll Up Your Sleeves

Many among the counterculture labor under is the mistaken notion that all we need to do is elect the right candidate. Then the Death Cult with its riots and bizarre public rituals will be swept away, and America will go back to the high culture of the 80s or the 50s.…

I’m Not Saying It’s Aliens

Regular readers of this blog will know that I'm no hard-nosed skeptic. That said, Charles Fort himself warned against being so open-minded that one's brains spilled out. The sudden candidness about UFOs on the part of the military, Congress, and the media raises ample reason for caution, if only because…

Don’t Be Demoralized

By this point, even the most oblivious have started to notice that our elites' ever more irrational dictates aren't meant to help anyone. Instead, cruel farces like Drag Queen Story Hour, mandatory intersectionality indoctrination, and Zimbabwe-style land transfers are humiliation rituals intended to demoralize the occupied nations. It's only natural…
FunkoPop Blank

PopCult Icons

Every so often, a Twitter thread comes along that perfectly encapsulates the degeneracy of our age. Such a thread drew notice in counterculture circles for blowing the lid off the Pop Cult icons known as FunkoPops.     Read the whole depressing thread. All their claims of material objectivity and…
