Pray For Me
So today one of my favorite bands, Within Temptation, has released an album. It’s called Bleed Out and the media is calling it their most political album ever, and one of the songs is entitled Don’t Pray For Me which was written in reponse to some abortion restrictions passed in Poland. The lead singer, Sharon…
Okay, Groomer
So Banned Books Week is this week, October 1-7, which seems to be a departure from it being held in mid to late September, but no matter. The left is up to its usual antics, and I’ve noticed that they’ve been promoting the whole “banned books” thing all year. I go to Barnes and Noble…
It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Hogwash
Yes, it’s that time of the year again – Banned Books Week. I am seriously rolling my eyes right now. This year, Banned Books Week runs from September 18 to the 24th. We’re subjected to the usual hysteria surrounding this week of propaganda. According to USA Today and the American Library Association, these books were…
The Hollowest Example of Diversity Yet
I have resisted writing about Amazon’s desecration of JRR Tolkien’s works with their show The Rings of Power, mostly because I am not a Tolkien scholar and have not read the books (though I have stared to read The Fellowship of the Ring). I have, however, seen Peter Jackson’s brilliant Lord of the Rings trilogy…
Burn The Heretic
So it’s happening again. Another author – a debut one, as usual – has been accused of racism and is currently being pressured into canceling her debut novel. The author is Rebecca Mix, and the title of her book is The Ones We Burn. It is scheduled to be published November 1, 2022, so we’ve…
They Just Don’t Care
So I was browsing Tumblr and came across this thread: A Cowering Politician a Day Keeps Tyranny Away sewickedthread: fairy-anon-godmother: ford-ye-fiji: kaladork: rose-child: freelancerkiwi: wet-raccoon: toadprince: toadprince: dark-angel-be-thirsty-af: toadprince: karpad: toadprince: toadprince: so far, I have quotes from the russos on how they think Cap is old fashioned and needed to go, how black widow…
It’s Time for Hogwash!
Before I continue, I am very sorry for not updating as frequently. I’ve moved across the country, from the East coast to the West coast, and it’s been really stressful and there’s still a crap-ton for me to do. Plus, I started a new job today so yeah, I have been busy. So I was…
Subverting Expectations
Last Friday, Netflix added Masters of the Universe: Revelation and pretty much every pop culture YouTuber I subscribe to has been talking about the fallout all weekend. Sometime last year, Clownfish TV had announced that one of their trusted sources claimed that the main character of the Master of the Universe franchise, He-Man, would be…
Absolutely Despicable
What would you do if you had raised a ton of money for suicide prevention and sex trafficking awareness, and a big-name director appears on your celebratory livestream to talk about your achievement, only for that person to basically call you a racist and a bigot before saying literally anything else? You’d be pretty pissed…
