Seeing as it’s Monday, I’d say that’s quite handy advice. Jus’ sayin’.
Even so, it’s still a pretty crappy day – though it’s very sunny and beautiful where I am, so YMMV, really.
Let’s start this week off with something charming and fun for a change. The “Dad, How Do I?” channel has of course seriously taken off over the last few months, because the affable chap behind it gives a lot of the viewers exactly the kind of father figure that so many of them never had in their lives. And he put out a video teaching young men how to grill:
Now, before my friend Adam Piggott jumps in and starts yelling about how silly it is to use a gas grill to cook meat, and how charcoal is way better – and he’s 100% right about that – let’s make it clear that Mr. Rob Kenney (that’s the dad in the video) agrees with us on this subject. Charcoal IS better. It just is.
That said, when you have a lot of cooking to do, and not much time to do it, propane gas or electricity are solid Plan B options.
But if you’re going to be a real man, and really grill, then learn how to use a charcoal grill. Life is just better with mesquite-grilled steaks, and that’s a fact.

His Most Illustrious, Noble, August, Benevolent, and Legendary Celestial Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus Astra, the First of His Name, may the Lord bless him and preserve him, turned the tables on a Promethean infiltrator at one of his political rallies in New Jersey recently:

This is how you beat the Left. Their idea of fighting involves pinning their opponents to their own rules, because we have rules and they do not. They can use this to crucify us on new rules that suit them, because we obey rules and they do not. And once those new rules are there, they can redefine them as they please, because we respect rules and they do not.
These are classic Alinskyite tactics, and they work frighteningly well.
But – that does not mean that we on the Right cannot beat them. We can. All we have to do is use their own rules against them, which will force them to redefine their own rules, but haphazardly.

Plenty of great stuff from our good friend The Male Brain this week. Let’s start with a great video from Felix Rex, aka Black Pigeon Speaks. As he points out, Turkey is helping to usher in the end of the Old New World Order:
This is a Very Good Thing. Both NATO and the EU have long outlived their usefulness and the mighty God-Emperor is absolutely right to force the European nations to confront that fact. These organisations and bureaucracies ultimately exist because they are heavily protected and subsidised by the USA. The threat from Russia is, at this point, non-existent, and therefore the entire reason for NATO’s existence, in particular, has disappeared.
Turkey is merely pushing these fault lines to their natural breaking points.
Also, as Dawn quite memorably remarked: “If Turkey is Yoko Ono – who gets to sleep with her?”. I’d argue that it’s more like, “who do we have to force to sleep with her?”, but that’s me.
Remember that picture of a bunch of superheroes bowing down before the doctors fighting the Kung Flu? This Instagram picture series explains the thinking of those heroes while they’re subserviently bowing and scraping:
Fossil fuels are a Very Good Thing, and we should be celebrating them, not reviling them:
Anyone who thinks that we can simply reduce our usage of fossil fuels to zero, has no clue how chemistry works. Look around you. Every single plastic item in your immediate surroundings is derived from some kind of hydrocarbon chain. For that, you need fossil fuels. It’s just a fact of life.
Since 2020 has been so balls-out insane already, let’s imagine what would happen if we had a zombie plague instead of a Chinese one:
Obviously the snark and nonsense in that video is pretty typical of a smug liberal, but it’s still pretty funny in its own way.
Apparently ALIENS!!!!!! are showing up in Germany, of all places:
That brings to mind the hilarious old Jeff Foxworthy skit about crop circles. What’s the German word for “redneck”?
Also – why would aliens show up in Germany, of all places? The only reason why ANYONE would go to Germany is because they have unrestricted autobahns. I mean, yeah, Germany’s beautiful and clean and efficient and extremely well-maintained and has terrific beer and all, but… who goes to Germany on a holiday?!? You go to Italy or France – well, not France, not if you actually want to be around nice people – or Spain.
This video demonstrates what it’s like for women to be surrounded by “male feminists”:
I could actually feel my testosterone levels dropping precipitously while watching that. I know it’s just comedy, but DAMN those Gammas are awful!
When the woke and the racist agree on things, the results can be… odd, to say the least:
The Honest Trailer for Starship Troopers – the EXECRABLE film, NOT the legendary book – is funny, certainly, but definitely isn’t on point at all:

Rowan Atkinson might be best known for his role as the bumbling doofus Mr. Bean, but is in fact an extremely intelligent and articulate defender of freedom of expression:

Paul Ramsey explains how the Daemoncrat wargaming scenarios about possible civil war and West Coast secession are actually Very Good Things:
I agree with him entirely. Losing the Left Coast would be wonderful for the rest of the USA, on balance. Yeah, the Red States would lose southern Crazyfornia and coastal Washington and Oregon – GOODBYE SEATTLE AND PORTLAND!!! – but that doesn’t strike most of us right wingnuts as a problem.
Let the Left go. Let them try really hard to establish their own secular Utopia. It won’t work. Build a wall to block their inevitable streams of refugees, and once they’re sufficiently weakened from their own stupidity, march in there, burn the Leftist monuments to their own stupidity to the ground, stick the heads of their most idiotic leaders on pikes, and occupy the territory sin suffragio en perpetua (h/t the Excruciator Majoris of the Evil Legion of Evil, LTC Tom Kratman).

Midnight’s Edge reports on the ongoing 20-car highway pileup that is Star Trek: Lower Decks:
The trailer for that show was bad enough. I’m guessing that the show itself will be so terrible that ViacomCBS will either sell the Star Trek IP entirely, or scrap all of the Bad Robot/Secret Hideout crap and start all over again.
Either way – stick a fork in Star Trek, it’s DONE.

Overlord Dicktor Van Doomcock paints a truly dire picture of the Devil Mouse’s finances and revenues, and says that mass layoffs have already started – with significant positive possibilities for the future of STAR WARS and the other Disney properties:
The financial results for Q2 were dire, but apparently not quite the day of apocalyptic scenario that Wall Street actually expected. That does not mean that the Devil Mouse is going to get off easily. Its most productive and lucrative properties have simply STOPPED producing revenues, and its biggest investments – including both LucasFilm and Marvel – are either underwater or on indefinite hold.
It turns out that, in addition to all of the shit that Corona-chan brought down on our heads, she also gave us some good things. The ignominious, debt-laden collapse of the Devil Mouse may well be one of those happy occurrences.

Gary from Nerdrotic points out that George Rape Rape Martin is failing badly and repeatedly at pretty much everything he’s doing – starting with The Winds of Winter and carrying on with the latest edition of something called the Hugo Awards:
Longtime Readers might recall that yer very ‘eavy, very ‘umble servant was involved in a certain operation known as “Rabid Puppies”, designed specifically to torch the Hugo Awards. If you look at the results of the Hugos ever since then, nobody cares about those awards and nobody pays attention to any of the authors who keep winning the diversity
And Gary really, really hated the new Star Trek animated show:

Your “Science is F***ING WEIRD” moment of the week from Dawn Pine:
Dark energy is one of the greatest mysteries in science today. We know very little about it, other than it is invisible, it fills the whole universe, and it pushes galaxies away from each other. This is making our cosmos expand at an accelerated rate. But what is it? One of the simplest explanations is that it is a “cosmological constant” – a result of the energy of empty space itself – an idea introduced by Albert Einstein.
Many physicists aren’t satisfied with this explanation, though. They want a more fundamental description of its nature. Is it some new type of energy field or exotic fluid? Or is it a sign that Einstein’s equations of gravity are somehow incomplete? What’s more, we don’t really understand the universe’s current rate of expansion.
Now our project – the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) – has come up with some answers. Our work has been released as a series of 23 publications, some of which are still being peer reviewed, describing the largest three-dimensional cosmological map ever created.
Currently, the only way we can feel the presence of dark energy is with observations of the distant universe. The farther galaxies are, the younger they appear to us. That’s because the light they emit took millions or even billions of years to reach our telescopes. Thanks to this sort of time-machine, we can measure different distances in space at different cosmic times, helping us work out how quickly the universe is expanding.
Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey telescope, we measured more than two million galaxies and quasars – extremely bright and distant objects that are powered by black holes – over the last two decades. This new map covers around 11 billion years of cosmic history that was essentially unexplored, teaching us about dark energy like never before.

Your long read of the week is from Ron Unz and explores the connection between the late, largely unmourned, Sen. John McCain and the Panopticon that we call Google:
Google holds a worldwide monopoly in search, having a total market share greater than 90% and therefore functioning as a global gatekeeper to the Internet, so this harsh action had serious consequences. Our regular daily traffic dropped by 15% or more, especially reducing the inflow of casual new visitors who might discover our alternative media webzine in an unrelated search. The national wave of urban turmoil that broke out at the end of that same month soon overwhelmed this decline and lifted our traffic to new heights, but the severe loss of new readers remained. So although our daily pageviews have set new records, the number of unique visitors to our website has remained substantially diminished.
Then a couple of weeks ago, various journalists reported an even more severe manipulation of Google’s search system, with dozens of top Republican-leaning websites, including Breitbart and Drudge, suddenly discovering that all their content had entirely disappeared from Google while liberal-leaning publications remained unaffected. This search engine “glitch” ended within a day and the conservative websites reappeared, but there was widespread speculation that Google had added a “kill switch” that could cleanse the Internet of all right-wing content at a moment’s notice, and someone had inadvertently tested this powerful new media weapon in public, thereby revealing its existence.
A presidential election is less than three months away, and conservatives have long complained that the Silicon Valley tech giants are biased against them. So the very real possibility that Google was road-testing the ability to “disappear” all conservative publications at some crucial moment must surely have raised concerns even among the most level-headed.
Big Tech censorship is nothing new or surprising, and the utter lack of spine shown by Republicans, up to and including the God-Emperor, is deeply depressing.
But, mark my words on this subject: the tide is shifting.
Silicon Valley companies are shitting their pants right now because a major flaw in their defences has been found and exploited by our beloved and dreaded Supreme Dark Lord (PBUH) and the Legal Legion of Evil. It has gotten to the point where Patreon’s ability to secure new patrons and generate new payouts has leveled off, and the total number of creators on the platform is leveling off.
Now, the legal mechanism used to bring Patreon down isn’t going to work nearly as well with Google, because with internet searches you aren’t involved in any kind of contract with the party that you’re searching for. So tortious interference, of either the negligent or malicious kind, doesn’t apply in this case.
But it has become alarmingly clear to Google exactly where their greatest weaknesses lie. And those weaknesses are in the fields of internet search, which still powers well over 70% of Google’s revenue, and the protections afforded to it by S. 230 of the Communications & Decency Act.
Take either of those two things away, and Google simply collapses.
The first requires a genuinely viable competitor in the field of search. No such competitor has yet been found, simply because of Google’s enormous monopoly power in the field. DuckDuckGo is pretty damned good, but it’s not quite a complete replacement for Google, not yet. Yandex is Russia-centric, which is no bad thing – if you’re Russian.
The second requires actual balls on the part of Republican lawmakers – and a majority in the House, the Senate, and the Presidency.
I realise that this makes things seem quite hopeless, but it’s important to remember that big monopolies like Google, especially highly abusive ones, never last very long. Eventually, they always overreach and always crack up. It’s going to happen. Just be ready for the day that it does.

Linkage is good for you:
- Being colour-blind is increasingly a luxury for White people, given the ways in which non-Whites are exploiting that trait;
- Our Beloved and Dreaded Supreme Dark Lord (PBUH) Vox Day reports on corporate cancer at Faceborg, which is cause for general rejoicing;
- Daemoncrat attempts at getting rid of the filibuster in the Senate will absolutely see the GOP go extinct, which is of course entirely the intended effect;
- Rich White people are going to have to choose eventually between not being racist, and not being rich – which do you think they’ll pick?;
- Remember how that whole “slippery slope” argument was constantly belittled and derided by our “betters” on the Left as small-minded and bigoted? Yeah, about that…;
- Greece is coming back, frankly because it is still an actual nation based on people and not creeds, yet its resurgence has gone almost entirely unnoticed;
- Siberia’s “Gateway to Hell” is expanding, which I suppose is a sign of the times, really;
- And speaking of doors to Hell, there is a fire-pit in Turkmenistan created by engineers during Soviet times, deliberately, which has never stopped burning for more than forty years;
- Example #278,530,419 of how socialism doesn’t f***ing work, this time thanks to both Venezuela and Iran;
- And speaking of Venezuela, the Daemoncrats are bitching at the God-Emperor for ruining their plans to commit a massive coup there;
And some more from Dawn Pine:
- Would you send your kids to a Scientology school run by Will and Jada, especially given how dysfunctional they both seem?
- Scientists ask a question that nobody else has ever bothered with – “how do sperm actually swim?” – and now almost surely never will;
- Blizzard employees share their internal salaries with each other, inadvertently revealing the basic and incorrigible truths of free-market economics and scarcity;
- One of the Wachowski… things explains that The Matrix was a metaphor for being “trans” – WTF that is – all along, to which the rest of us respond: EFF OFF!!!;
- I have no idea what Who’s the Boss is, but apparently it’s getting a sequel that absolutely nobody wants;
- American media desperately want the public to trust them, and the American public are equally desperately telling them to take a hike;
- That horrific blast in Beirut the other day does appear to have been entirely an accident – based on what we know so far – but it has further shattered an already broken city;
- In these troubled times, people are asking the really big questions – such as, “who is faster, Quicksilver or Flash?” Unfortunately, DC Comics has cocked up pretty badly on this one, by making Flash go 13 trillion times the speed of light – which is ridiculous;
- US intelligence services are apparently cottoning on to the possibility of foreign interference in American elections – haven’t we seen this movie before?;

The Neo-Tsar has evidently offered a very subtle warning to China recently, concerning missile launches that it sees coming over its own sovereign territory:
That channel is known for triumphalist chest-thumping and a very slanted, very Indian take on current events, so consider what you read with a BIG heaping helping of salt, but the video does touch upon an important fact:
Relations between Russia and China are those of convenience, not true friendship.
Vladimir Putin is nothing if not a realist. He understands that despite Russia’s vast territory and resources and battle-hardened army and expertise in land warfare, his country is at a distinct disadvantage in terms of just sheer manpower and fighting strength compared to Red China.
The fact is that if China wants to, it can muster about a million of its more than two million strong military right on the border with Russia – which is quite a long one – and march right into the Siberian hinterland to take over everything north of the Amur and east of the Urals, should it so please. The ChiComs already consider pretty much all of Eastern Siberia to be part of “Greater China”, so it’s not like they’d be acting out of character or anything.
The fact that there is basically f***-all by way of infrastructure out there for TENS OF THOUSANDS of square kilometres in every direction is what stops them from doing it. Well, that, and the miserable Russian winters, which have stopped more than a few would-be invaders who thought that they could march all over Mother Russia with impunity.
The Chinese could do it, but logistics are not their strength and they don’t have a battle-ready military, no matter what they want you to believe.
So the relationship is one of arm’s-length ‘friendship”, and from time to time it is necessary for the Neo-Tsar to warn his Imperial Mandarin counterpart when he’s overstepping his bounds.

This next one had me howling with laughter:
You know why we call them “Pantifags” all the time? This is why:
A bit on the nose, but absolutely accurate.
Man, Bill Clinton has gone a LONG way down from his days as the cool saxophone-playing mellow liberal hero that the Daemoncrats loved and couldn’t wait to repeatedly re-elect, 22nd Amendment be damned. He’s now almost universally reviled as an alleged (though almost certainly actual) rapist, sexual predator, and outright creep.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy, as far as I’m concerned.
Remember what I said earlier about 2020 not being that bad? Well, the headlines of the week are dead set on proving me wrong. I’m not even going to try to label these – they all fall under the “we’re f***ing DOOMED” category:
Floriduh Man appears to think he’s a kangaroo now:
I don’t know who did this, but he’s my hero:
Serves you bloody right for shopping at IKEA. The meatballs aren’t that good.
Does self-isolating and wearing a mask do anything in case of an attack by King Ghidora?
In my case, that would be The Shadow. Discuss among yourselves.
I’ve been in that exact airport. Trust me, that’s not the stupidest sign you’ll see there.
“You might be a redneck if…”
“But, Officer, the sign said to tie up my girlfriend!”

And finally here’s your Instathot to get the week off to the right start (for certain values of “right”, I suppose). Her name is Dasha Mart, and as far as I can tell, she’s originally from Minsk, Belarus, and currently lives in Miami. She’s also married, somehow, to a hockey player from Belarus, while also being a model for Playboy Mexico and a legitimate model for Philip Plein.
If you’re thinking that there’s something hinky with that story, given her rather large tattoos and very obviously pneumatic appearance, hey, you ain’t the only one.
She’s also highly flexible, as her photos show. So, basically, Thot Quotient of HARD 10.
Anyway, that’s it for this week. Up off your butts, boys, we’ve got work to do.

Other reasons to get a gas grill – hot coals and wood decks don't mix.
I thought the secret to grilling any meat was the meat itself. Have I been living a lie all this time?
It is. However, bad cooking technique and equipment can render a great steak inedible in under a minute – as I have found out MANY times, to my considerable cost, in terms of time, money, and most importantly, taste.
Just cut it's horns off, wipe his ass and throw it on the plate.
"One of the simplest explanations is that it is a “cosmological constant” "
simpler yet, is to just admit that it's electro-magnetism.
they're already admitting intergalactic electro-coupling, and you can't have current flows without generating magnetic fields.

so far as IKEA goes, those look like real arrow decals to me.
and 'The Shadow' was okay, i guess. the consensus of my viewing group was that the Best Actor award went to the CGI knife.
