The Hidden Decline

Feb 21, 2020

The average American can buy a powerful smartphone with all the bluetooths and wifis but that is small consolation when their wages don't cover required expenditures.

Woke Illustrated

Feb 16, 2020

Sports Illustrated has introduced its next slate of finalist models for its upcoming swimsuit issue, and a plus-sized model, a 56-year-old model, and a bald fitness trainer will be among them.

The stupidity of it all:

“I hope every chocolate chubby girl and every thick queen around the world sees this and know that anything is possible,” Anyea continued.

“Your skin, size, shape, condition, beauty will not determine your destiny. Your will-power, faith, and determination will,” she said.

If a black whale can become a finalist for a swimsuit issue, then what exactly are the disqualification criteria?

An Absolute Jewel

Dec 08, 2019

During a recent interview with Out And Proud Magazine, Rise of Skywalker director J.J. Abrams hinted that the hotly-anticipated 9th installment of the Star Wars saga would include more clear LGBTQ representation, in the form of a lesbian AT-AT. [...]

Abrams further explained that the AT-AT’s character would be illuminated through conversations with Rey, who speaks fluent Imperial Walker. Because of course, she does.

Of course! The photo in the article is absolute gold.

Man the Harpoons!

Clown World: Embrace the FAT edition:

Making its international premiere in the Frontlight section, Danish doc “Fat Front” came to IDFA with a fair amount of buzz from its Scandinavian homeland, where it debuted in October. Directed by Louise Unmack Kjeldsen and Louise Detlefsen, the film follows four Nordic women—Helene, Marte, Pauline and Wilde—who are tired of kow-towing to society’s ideal of the body beautiful and have decided instead to embrace their curves.

I laughed at this:

Detlefsen added that the girls’ positivity was infectious. “We learned from the four main characters not to postpone our lives any more,” she recalls.

There won't be much of a life to postpone given their gravitational fields.

The preservation of civilization

Oct 16, 2019

Vox Day:

It's not enough to know about things. It's not even enough to know how to maintain them. It is vital to learn how to design, develop, and build things if civilized society is to be preserved.

That reminds me of this hauntingly beautiful line:

Much that once was is lost, For none now live who remember it.

One of the building blocks:

The Junior Classics campaign is going extremely well, having hit 300 percent of goal in less than 24 hours. You can acquire a digital set, a hardcover set, or a deluxe leatherbound set by backing the campaign.

You can back the campaign here. I'll buy the hardcovers in the future but I couldn't help getting the digital editions now since they're so shockingly inexpensive.

A New Front in the Culture War

Jul 04, 2019

Vox Day:

Many of you are aware that we have been working on a larger-scale project than usual over the last few months. So, I suspect that few of you will be surprised to learn that what we have been assiduously working on is putting together a production team for the first Arkhaven film as well as a new film production company, Viral Films Media. This is the Rebel's Run Teaser Trailer from Galatia Films and VFM.

The Right cries, complains, and whines about the bias in pop culture. Vox Day is actually using his time and energy to build an alternative institution to take on Hollywood which promotes the cancer that is social justice. If you want to support him, then, at least, go watch the movie when it comes out.

Disavow Now!

May 14, 2019

The Supreme Dark Lord of the Evil Legion of Evil:

It's amazing how little they know me, that they think persistence will work against me when SJWs have been attacking me relentlessly for at least 14 years. Their newest line is that Unauthorized is a scam, which indicates that they have no idea what the investment opportunity I have mentioned is about. Which, I'm sure is more than a little amusing to all of the Arkhaven backers.

I laughed at the update.

Shameless Smollett Smears Samaritans

Apr 30, 2019

The two brothers who say "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett paid them to stage his Jan. 29 assault announced Tuesday that they have filed a federal defamation lawsuit against his legal team, including celebrity attorney Mark Geragos.

You must have a heart of stone to not laugh at this:

The lawsuit, obtained by USA TODAY, asserts that after the collapse of the criminal case against Smollett in late March, Geragos and Glandian defamed the Osundairo brothers multiple times in public statements and in the media, claiming they "criminally attacked" and "criminally battered" the actor and that they may have been wearing "whiteface" during the attack.

Two black guys wore "whiteface" and attacked a poor, black guy while yelling: This is MAGA country, bitch! This is gold!

No crooks here

Mar 13, 2019

Rob Lowe couldn't resist:

The arrest of actress Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin in a massive college admissions cheating scandal in which they're alleged to have paid huge sums of money to secure places for their children at top universities is reverberating around Hollywood.

And on Tuesday, Rob Lowe was among the stars who felt the need to comment publicly on the news while defending the achievements of his own college-educated kids.

The former West Wing star, 54, retweeted a post by his youngest son John Owen Lowe and added: 'Very proud of my honest, hardworking sons.'

(Laughs.) It's too late. The credentials are largely meaningless. Why?

  1. The curriculum has been watered down.
  2. The pro-Jewish bias at the Ivy League schools.
  3. Discrimination against capable Whites and Asians.
  4. The acceptance of incapable Blacks which magnifies racism.
  5. And now, this: the bribing of college staff to accept precious snowflakes.

Unless, your son is in a hardcore STEM discipline, university is a waste of time and money. That's the puzzling aspect. When you're wealthy, why even bother with getting in the place? Plenty of smart people who become rich don't even finish college. In short: value diminished and status shattered.

The Return of the Pussy

Nov 10, 2018

Mortensen used the word on Wednesday night at the ArcLight Cinemas Hollywood during a conversation moderated by Film Independent programmer Elvis Mitchell. Mortensen was speaking about cyclical and generational use of hate speech, according to several audience members in attendance, and used the N-word specifically as an example of speech that’s no longer common in conversation.

OMG, he said NIGGER!

In his subsequent apology, Mortensen said, “Although my intention was to speak strongly against racism, I have no right to even imagine the hurt that is caused by hearing that word in any context, especially from a white man. I do not use the word in private or in public. I am very sorry that I did use the full word last night, and will not utter it again.”

SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!

The snowflakes are melting!

Nov 05, 2018

The original Alt-Hero: Q crowdfunding campaign got a little over $100,000 in a month. The SJWs thought they had scored a huge victory when they got the website to cancel the campaign and refund the backers. The Supreme Dark Lord made another ring in secret started a new campaign that only a few hundred people knew about.

The stealth Alt-Hero: Q funding raised over $100,000 in two days.

Thanks to all of the AH:Q backers whose decisiveness and discipline made this possible. Your performance was astounding, even to the AH:Q team. What we are building will not be stopped; this is only the beginning of the Dark Legion's long march through the comics industry. This is only the first of several announcements that will increasingly dismay and demoralize our self-appointed enemies.

Good.

Alt-Hero: Q

Sep 20, 2018

ARKHAVEN COMICS is the revolutionary comics publisher that is upending the industry and making comics great again. Since the unprecedented success of its original Alt★Hero campaign less than one year ago, Arkhaven has published 22 comic books and graphic novels.

Alt★Hero: Q is an incendiary 150-page graphic novel in six parts that explores the mysterious phenomenon of QAnon. The story is written by the legendary Chuck Dixon, who is backed by a first-rate professional art-and-production team.

One week left for the campaign. I'll be getting one or two of the perks next week to give the campaign a last day push. If you're interested in non-SJW comics, then this is definitely worth supporting.
