As societies enter a dark age, military technologies are apt to be the last to be lost, and in the recovery from a dark age, the first to advance. In dark ages, art declines, great buildings decline, ordinary people’s living standards decline, people harrow the ground with stones tied to bits of wood instead of iron plows, but weapons technology usually goes right on improving. Our art is crap, we …

When the west started losing wars
The Victorian theory that women were angels, therefore no coercion was needed against naturally saintly women, only against demonic males who make saintly women do bad things, led to an intolerable flood of bastards and women giving birth in the rain in dark alleys, which in turn led to “Oliver Twist†and “Les Miserablesâ€, which brought us the welfare state, and the replacement of the nuclear family with child support. …
Overgaming
This is not a PUA blog. To learn PUA, read Heartiste, and then practice on actual women, not this blog. But some people have partially misinterpreted my observations on passing shit tests, so, clarifying. I depict shit tests as tough, deadly, scary, threatening, and vital to pass, because they are. But though a cat will be bored if it manages to catch a cat toy, it will also be bored …
Kathy Forth’s suicide
Kathy Forth offed herself, leaving a lengthy suicide note in which she accused numerous men of sexually harassing her, and the entire society of ignoring this terrible sexual harassment, thereby driving her to suicide. Fat, pushing forty, and supposedly suffers unbearable amounts of sexual assault. Back when she was hot, the amount of sexual assault she suffered was entirely bearable. All women love drama, all women create drama, and all …
And Tango does not make three
Singapore and Hong Kong resist “International Community†dominance, taking gay books off the library shelves. Now that Trump is disinclined to back Blue Empire soft power with Red Empire hard power, Blue Empire soft power is running into severe head winds. Recall Duterte threatening to give Soros a helicopter ride if he came to the Philippines. One of the books removed is “And Tango makes Threeâ€, a book that schoolchildren …
English pay the Jizya
The Daily Mail Online tells us “Less than one in twenty street robberies and burglaries solved†Naturally I thought the unmentionable planet Jupiter must be in sight, and suspected that these mysteriously unsolvable crimes might correlate with that. “Rushcliffe in Nottinghamshire had the lowest rate of solved crime in 2017, while the most crimes were solved in Uttlesford in Essex†So, I looked up Google Earth, for the main town …
Can’t stump the Trump
Naturally the world press attempted to frame this as Trump taking a humiliating beating like an errant schoolboy. But … But the frame fell off with Trudeau’s eyebrows. Trump targeted Trudeau in particular, not because of anything he said, that was just an excuse, but because the Canadian economy is the most vulnerable to a tariff war with the United States. The fake eyebrows were a visible manifestation of less …
Jordan Peterson, controlled opposition
Jordan Peterson is on our side of the Culture War: anti-political correctness anti-identity politics biological sex roles and traditional gender roles meritocracy and meritocratic hierarchy personal freedom and responsibility angers our enemies But this man is not an ally. The enemy of our enemy is not always our friend. It is good that my enemy’s enemy is successful against my enemy, but much though I wish my enemy’s enemy was …
Baking a gay marriage cake
The supreme court has rolled back the decision that forced a particular baker to bake a particular gay marriage cake. But has done nothing in general about the rules that pressure everyone else to piously give service to gay marriage, that require ever other baker to bake a gay wedding cake. The reason for undoing that particular decision is that the human rights commission was openly and enthusiastically delighting in …
The drift to civil war
Whichever outcome happens, Trump in prison or the swamp in prison, as leftism keeps getting lefter the stakes just keep getting higher, and the processes for seizing the stakes are losing legitimacy. When things are falling apart, the first guy to escalate tends to win, and the first guy to escalate to naked violence is likely to win. The deep state, the swamp, figured that they would illegally hound the …
