That’s the title of an article by David Cole, in which he analyzes what’s gone wrong with the “Trust science!” school of governance that we’ve had thrown at us ad nauseam for the past couple of years. Here’s an excerpt. The public’s relationship with science should, ideally, be governed by what’s known as “good-faith… Continue reading “Bad Science, Bad Faith”

You simply can’t take these people seriously any longer
I’m both angry and nonplussed at this report in the New York Post. In Oct. 2020, Los Angeles resident Bennett Kaspar-Williams, 37, gave birth via caesarean to a healthy baby boy with his husband, Malik. But in the process of having little Hudson, Kaspar-Williams was troubled by the constant misgendering of him by hospital… Continue reading You simply can’t take these people seriously any longer
Heh
One of the Web comics I follow daily is Jennie Breeden’s “The Devil’s Panties”. Yesterday’s cartoon made me chuckle. Click the image to be taken to a larger version at her Web page. If you aren’t reading “The Devil’s Panties” regularly, you’re missing some prime-grade snark. Peter
Medical “science” lies again. Why am I not surprised?
We’ve covered the widespread and very, very serious negative reactions to the COVID-19 “vaccines” (which aren’t really vaccines at all, except for the J&J variant) in these pages before. Here’s the latest summary for the USA (clickit to biggit) from the VAERS database: The total number of adverse reactions reported in the USA is… Continue reading Medical “science” lies again. Why am I not surprised?
Er… judge… about those hippos…
I’m still laughing after reading this report. The offspring of hippos once owned by Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar can be recognized as people or “interested persons” with legal rights in the US following a federal court order. The case involves a lawsuit against the Colombian government over whether to kill or sterilize the… Continue reading Er… judge… about those hippos…
“Right-wing” election observers and officials? Say it ain’t so!!!
I had to laugh at an alarmist report from Pro Publica last week. Precinct officers are the worker bees of political parties, typically responsible for routine tasks like making phone calls or knocking on doors. But collectively, they can influence how elections are run. In some states, they have a say in choosing poll… Continue reading “Right-wing” election observers and officials? Say it ain’t so!!!
I can almost hear Bob saying this!
Readers will recall that in January, Miss D. and I went up to Colorado for the funeral of a good friend, Bob, who’d been our host at our Blogorado gatherings for more than a decade. He was a no-nonsense, down-to-earth, plain-spoken man, who said what he meant and meant what he said. I couldn’t… Continue reading I can almost hear Bob saying this!
Not your average officer…
Way back when (so long ago I’ve forgotten), I came across a purported list of extracts from British military officer fitness reports. I recently rediscovered it, and thought my readers might enjoy it: so here goes. His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of curiosity. This officer is not so much of… Continue reading Not your average officer…
“Crocodile Dunedain”???
I laughed out loud to read this five-year-old thread on Reddit. I’ve forgotten who sent me the link via e-mail, but a tip o’ the hat to you, friend, whoever you are. I’m planning on running Out of the Abyss in the next month with a group of mostly new players. I normally run… Continue reading “Crocodile Dunedain”???
The intellectual roots of our current oligarchy go back half a century or more
We’ve spoken many times about how our present political structures are dominated by an oligarchy, which is trying to run the United States in its own interests and to the detriment of ours. That includes having stolen the November 2020 elections through massive, systematic electoral fraud, which has rendered our Constitution effectively meaningless, and… Continue reading The intellectual roots of our current oligarchy go back half a century or more
