When the Laughter Died

When the Laughter Died

If you paid attention to popular entertainment in the 80s and 90s, you probably remember the wave of edgy comedians who rose up as a sort of pushback against the allegedly staid Reagan era. Guys like Andrew Dice Clay, Denis Leary, and Sam Kinison were among a class of funnymen…

The Last Jedi and Fake Reviews

The Last Jedi and Fake Reviews

We already knew that The Last Jedi was a con. Now proof has surfaced that the reviled Star Wars movie's ridiculously high Rotten Tomatoes critics' score is likewise a sham. Geeks and Gamers reports on leaked audio from Fanboys director Kyle Newman, who admitted that Rian Johnson's abomination was just as poorly…

Boomer Solipsism Still Ruining the Church

Boomer Solipsism Still Ruining the Church

To no one's surprise, a generation of narcissists is surprised that distorting the faith in their image is making the youth flee in droves. H/t Rawle Nyanzi You didn’t misread that, I didn’t say irrelevant, I said RELEVANT. We’ve taken a historic, 2,000 year old faith, dressed it in plaid…

Reminder: There’s No Voting Our Way out of This

Today strikes me as a good time to repost this piece from three years ago. You're always in for something interesting when you go back through the archives for a little perspective. A previous post on how the tide is turning against legacy media and its Leftist bias drew commenters…

I've had reservations about the "no leaders" approach for a while. Granted, military history is not…

What Slippery Slope?

What Slippery Slope?

The vast overreach perpetrated by the Coalition of the Fringes in their Trump-induced frenzy is beginning to make normies take notice. From William M. Briggs: Long-time school teacher Peter Vlaming was fired for saying these words: “Don’t let her run into the wall.” Problem is, the lunatic parents of the…

Smrt Stories

My earlier post on SJWs cannibalizing the once-mighty White Wolf Publishing occasioned a friend to recommend the 2004 video game *deep breath* Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines.

RIP Stan Lee

RIP Stan Lee

Yesterday we saw the passing of comics giant Stan Lee. With the possible exception of George Lucas, Lee's influence on American pop culture was arguably unrivaled--and you'd need a damn good argument against it. You can't open a web browser, turn on the TV, or walk down the street without…

The Dead End State of Pop Culture

The Dead End State of Pop Culture

Author JD Cowan offers a grim prognosis on the fate of pop culture based on Hollywood's manifest inability to connect with its audience. The Predator is a shallow, spiritually dead movie of stolen imagination and rehashed ideas with a message that could only have been thought up by someone too…
