So it appears that Amelie Wen Zhao has had a change of heart.  She’s made some revisions to her book, Blood Heir with the help of some experts on slavery and a few more “sensitivity readers” to ensure that it is more easily understood that her story is inspired by modern-day slavery, and will publish the…

I saw the following post on Reddit and decided to make a response on the blog, primarily because I’m a coward. Also, I’m lazy and I really don’t like typing on an iPad screen. Brie Larson: Why the hate? Ok, here I go. I have been wondering about all the media attention and internet raging…

Okay, I am really apprehensive about admitting to this, but I do come from a blue collar family that has done quite well for itself, so here goes. I’ve worked retail before, and I’ve also worked in a call center, and this was recently. The one thing they drum into your head during orientation is…

Update 3/31/19: Somebody is clearly capable of dishing it but can’t take it. Fucking cowards: But she can say “fuck you” to anyone that disagrees with her. Fucking figures. Leftists have consequence-free rights and the rest of us are censored and punished for speaking our minds. Anyway… Before I say anything else – despite this…

So I was moseying around on my iPad, and came across this Twitter thread: The Sun on Twitter: “Beverley Callard says celebs are trying to make mental health problems ‘fashionable’ https://t.co/LaFcp2RSzw pic.twitter.com/MEgIkaCQ4l / Twitter” Beverley Callard says celebs are trying to make mental health problems ‘fashionable’ https://t.co/LaFcp2RSzw pic.twitter.com/MEgIkaCQ4l Piers Morgan on Twitter: “She’ll be hammered…

I’ve written like, half a post about the Christchurch shootings but I just don’t want to deal with that right now, so here’s a brief post about something else entirely. So, Joanne Rowling’s shameless cash grab – aka those Fantastic Beasts movies – is about to come out on BluRay and DVD, and some details…

I really dislike the phrase “strong women” simply because the left keeps parroting it, and are completely obsessed with the concept. Yet, I’ve been watching and reading about “strong women” my whole life. And they’re acting like “strong women” is a very recent phenomenon. I’ve already covered this, in part, in my post on the…

I have finished my review of A Place for Wolves. Featured Photo by Ryan Pohanic on Unsplash Predictably, the criticism leveled at the book is mostly bullshit.

Photo by Janko Ferlič on Unsplash Well, that was even quicker, to be honest. I had poked around the GoodReads entry for A Place for Wolves and noticed that a couple of other YA authors had amended their previously glowing reviews to basically denounce the book for its supposed “Islamophobia.” And now Vulture is reporting that Kosoko Jackson…

  It hasn’t even been a month since the Blood Heir debacle, and SJWs are after yet another book.  This time, it’s a gay “historical” romance/thriller set in Kosovo, written by a black man who also happens to be gay. The book is called A Place of Wolves, written by Kosoko Jackson, and takes place in the late…
