Far too much smoke for there not to be a fire

  I’m sure most of my readers have noted the enormous increase in fires and other accidents that have disabled food production facilities throughout the USA, and in other parts of the world.  The true extent of the problem has been masked by the scant attention paid to it in the mainstream media.  However, when… Continue reading Far too much smoke for there not to be a fire

Psychopaths and where to find them

Mathew Crawford points out an interesting anomaly, and asks some interesting questions. Psychopaths are rare people who neither feel empathy toward their fellow humans, nor care about societal norms … Most people know the chilling tales of the psychopaths most talked about in Seabrook’s article—the 15 to 20 percent of males in the prison population… Continue reading Psychopaths and where to find them

Saturday Snippet: The Curse of Christine

  Yesterday Old NFO put up one of his regular book promotion posts.  First on his list was a memoir by Ben English titled “Black and White: Tales of the Texas Highway Patrol“. It’s not an easy book to read if you’ve been part of law enforcement or an associated service.  Ben tells it like… Continue reading Saturday Snippet: The Curse of Christine

Not your average insurance claim!

  This may be the weirdest personal injury insurance claim I’ve yet come across. The Missouri Court of Appeals ruled that insurance giant Geico had to pay $5.2 million in damages to a woman after she was infected with Human Papilloma Virus while engaging in intimate activities in someone else’s insured personal vehicle. The claim… Continue reading Not your average insurance claim!

Verily, the mind doth boggle

  It’s got to the point where politically correct bigots are denying medical facts in their efforts to dominate discourse. A Norwegian feminist faces up to three years in prison for saying that biological men can’t be lesbians. Yes, really. Christina Ellingsen, of the global feminist organization Women’s Declaration International (WDI), is under police investigation… Continue reading Verily, the mind doth boggle

Is it possible that moonbats can’t see how utterly crazy they’ve become?

  As evidence, I offer you this article. A ‘uterus-shaped’ cereal has been launched with the goal of putting conversations about periods on the table. Feminine care brand Intimina developed its raspberry-flavoured ‘Period Crunch’ to encourage families to discuss menstruation more openly at breakfast. Despite being marketed as womb-shaped, the cereal actually resembles the entire… Continue reading Is it possible that moonbats can’t see how utterly crazy they’ve become?

True dat

  I came across this tweet from RoosterFJB the other day.  I can’t find it today, which leads me to suspect it may have been deleted:  but fortunately I’d already saved a screenshot. Absolutely true, IMHO, based on decades of experience in most of sub-Saharan Africa, and two-and-a-half decades in the USA since then.  Transgenderism… Continue reading True dat

Political correctness and gender “neutrality” gone mad!

  This report should make any normal parent grit their teeth in frustration. While attending a training meeting in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, a parent found a urinal in the women’s room of Upper Perkiomen Middle School. “I couldn’t believe it when I saw it. I had to check the sign because I thought I was… Continue reading Political correctness and gender “neutrality” gone mad!

Er… what does one say?

  I was left a bit mind-boggled by this snipped article, in a tweet referenced on MeWe. A false leg for a horse? Kidnapped a Mormon missionary to serve as her sex slave?  (Boy, talk about faith in action!) One can’t help but wonder what makes her tick.  Any suggestions, readers?  (Reasonably family-friendly ones, please!)… Continue reading Er… what does one say?

Headline of the week – maybe of the year

  I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read this headline: Indiana Egg Farmer Transported to Hospital With a Live Adult Chicken Stuck in His Rectal Cavity I mean . . . huh???  At first I though this had to be a parody or satirical “news” site – but no, it’s a serious news outlet… Continue reading Headline of the week – maybe of the year
