Oh FFS it’s Monday again. Like a bad rash, or a bad penny, it keeps showing up. The weekend zipped by far too quickly – not least because I spent quite a lot of it snuffling like a congested elephant, which in fairness is actually a pretty accurate descriptor of what I am like when I have a cold.
Fortunately, the Great Mondaydact Browser Melter, plus copious amounts of Lempsip, are here to save the day. (It really wasn’t that bad a cold, actually. The difficulty lay in the fact that I spent all of Friday interacting with PEOPLE. And that tends to run me down pretty quickly.)
This week, let us take a look at a rather severely underrated game series – Crash Bandicoot, which has gone through many developers, and therefore many iterations and changes, over the years. Some were good, some were great – Crash Bandicoot: Crash of the Titans, for example, was AWESOMESAUCE – and some were awful. But overall, this game series is definitely one of the diamonds in the rough of the industry:
On that note – some of you might be familiar with another game called Conker’s Bad Fur Day. I have never played it, but I remember a good friend of mine telling me, many years ago, all the way back when i was living in Australia – where LITERALLY EVERYTHING WANTS TO KILL YOU AND EAT YOUR EYEBALLS FOR JUJUBEES!!!!!!!!! – that it was kind of like Crash Bandicoot for adults.
Judging by the actual footage from the game – that is rather a dramatic understatement:
Anyway, coming back to the original series, let us remember some of the more epic boss battles in the series:
There were indeed some great games back then. Nowadays… not so much.
The Mighty God-Emperor
His Most Illustrious, Noble, August, Benevolent, and Legendary Celestial Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus Astra, the First of His Name, the Lion of Midnight, may the Lord bless him and preserve him, caused quite a bit off ass-pain to the Euzis when he told them he would not support NATO in the event of a Russian “invasion”:
#BasedTucker is Based
I truly believe #BasedTucker did us all a phenomenal service in holding that interview. He has shattered the MSM’s grip on power by going around them and giving the Neo-Tsar the opportunity to speak directly, and at length, with a Western audience that numbers in the MILLIONS.
To put things into perspective, as of the time of this writing, the YouTube version of that interview has over 13M views and nearly 260K comments. The Twitter version has over 189M views, over 73K comments, and over 300K shares.
As Larry Johnson pointed out in a recent blog post at SONAR21, those numbers are AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE larger than the COMBINED viewership of the entire MSM in the FUSA.
This is a staggering, paradigm-destroying achievement. ONLY Tucker could possibly have done this. He is the ONLY investigative reporter in the entire Western world with the right combination of the audience, credibility, personality, and access required to make this happen.
He is paying a fearsome price, in terms of extreme personal attacks upon him by all the nastiest characters in the Deep State, for doing what he did. But he has provided us all with hope for the future – because we now know the MSM can be fought, outmanoeuvred, and destroyed.
Dawn of Battle
The Male Brain has LOTS of stuff to keep us plenty busy today. We start with the return of Ryan George, who explains what it is like to open a nightclub:
Just when you think you’ve seen the maximum extent of human stupidity, someone comes along to prove you wrong:
Einstein’s epigram about the two things that are infinite – the Universe, and human stupidity – is seriously on point.
Moon tells you to GET YOUR KIDS OFF TEH YOOTOOBZ right bloody now, and with very good reason:
Whenever you get into a debate with a crazy feminist (which is admittedly highly redundant), all you have to do is to ask her to define terms, and you will break her brain:
Economics Explained, explains economics in Frogland, where things are going horribly wrong:
In fact, they have been going horribly wrong for decades. It is only now that things are becoming too clear to avoid any longer, because of France’s utterly failed immigration policies.
Dirigisme only works as an economic philosophy when everyone in the country agrees to it and wants to make it work – and that only happens in highly homogeneous societies that have a clear and well-defined national identity.
Replace the people, and you replace the economic system. It’s just that simple.
PsycHacks argues dominance is psychological, not physical:
He is right, up to a point. The Neo-Tsar is not a physically imposing man. Yet no one in his right mind would argue he is anything other than a serious MFIC, a tremendously powerful and intelligent man, who dominates any room into which he walks.
Yet, as he correctly points out, dominance DOES have a physical component. Size does intimidate and impress people, as does martial prowess. Part of the Neo-Tsar’s power comes from the fact that everyone knows damned well he is a serious physical specimen. He is a double black belt in judo, as well as an accomplished horseman, shooter, angler, and outdoorsman, and hockey player.
Dominance is both physical AND psychological – and your mind is a mirror of your body. A powerful mind in a weak body has no ability to assert its dominance. A weak mind in a big body will always be too insecure to do anything with that physical power.
Moving on – Fiction Beast gives an outstanding explanation of Fyodor Dostoyevskiy’s deep hatred for intellectuals, despite actually being one himself:
The reason why is simple – because of his experiences, Dostoyevskiy actually came to understand and appreciate the realities of the ordinary Russian, which his fellow intellectuals never could and never did. As a result, he hated the weakness, cowardice, and dishonesty of so-called “intellectuals” who had no understanding of the people whose causes they professed to champion.
It should come as no surprise that the same conflicts outlined in that video, were commonplace in Russia all the way up until the SMO started 2 years ago. That was when the liberal intellectual class largely fled Russia, leaving behind Christian nationalists who believe strongly in a united Russian state that exists to serve the people and promote Christian morality.
The Babylon Bee has a surprise announcement from the Prince of Darkness himself:
The really hilarious part is, only Western TikTok is the problem. Chinese TikTok, called “Douyuen”, is very heavily censored and curated to promote patriotic and nationalistic Chinese values.

This week’s General Knowledge corner comes from The Male Brain, and is about what you actually see when you fall asleep:
Also, have you ever wondered where the game of “Rock, Paper, Scissors” comes from? Well, wonder no longer – because, like so many other things, it came from the world of sex:
Rock, Paper, Scissors — sex?
Whether duking it out over who gets to ride the slide first on the playground or who gets the last slice of pizza on date night, the time-honored hand game of chance has always come in handy when making some of everyday life’s most difficult decisions.
Heck, it has even helped bikini-clad bombshells wiggle out of legal binds with the police, and served as the sport of choice in friendly wagers totaling more than $500,000.
However, the seemingly innocent battle of the brains between a pair of competitors — which typically sees each challenger flash either a closed fist as a “rock,” a flat hand as “paper,” or their index and middle fingers as “scissors” in a best two-out-of-three match — is said to have begun as a form of foreplay in sex houses.
Childhood destroyed!
“So, ‘Rock, Paper, Scissors’ started as a sex game,” Ireland-based historian and podcaster Katie Charlwood revealed to her shocked TikTok audience of more than 354,000.
“Technically, it originally started out as a Sansukumi-Ken, which was a Chinese drinking game,” she continued. “But when the game traveled through Japan in the 17th and 18th centuries, it became incredibly popular in brothels.”

Mark Dice unpacks the sheer idiocy of Brandon’s live clown show, in the wake of that special counsel’s argument that he shouldn’t face a trial because he is mentally unfit to do so:
Lost in all of that debate is the inescapable and profound reality that, if Brandon is mentally unfit to stand trial for his mishandling of classified documents, then he is MENTALLY UNFIT TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
In fact, he ISN’T the President, which is why I keep calling him the Fake President, of course, but that is spilt milk under the bridge, as it were.

The FUSA is in the terminal part of late-stage imperial decline. Its collapse is assured. And Brandon will be a big part of the reason for it.
Rulings from the Bench
Judge Nap
Col. Douglas Macgregor explains, in his very lucid and sensible manner, the sheer insanity of trying to provoke a conflict with Iran:
LTC Tony Shaffer makes a rather foolish mistake in his otherwise actually pretty sensible take on Ukraine’s current problems:
The mistake is, of course, LTC Shaffer’s misguided and moronic belief that Russia follows old Soviet military doctrines that are uncaring of human losses. Neither leg of the argument holds to even the most cursory examination. In reality, Soviet doctrine was remarkable for its exceptionally scientific approach to warfare, and Russians have since taken that and refined it heavily for the modern battlefield.
Grandpa Grumpuss called him out on this in a big way, and rightly so.
Moving on – Maj. Scott Ritter analyses the #BasedTucker interview with The Putin, and concludes that Tucker, for all his flaws, did a tremendous public service:
I disagree with Maj. Ritter’s view that Tucker did a bad job in certain areas. I simply think Tucker did not know what to expect when he received that long history lecture at the beginning – but, being the consummate professional, as he is, he figured it out and rebounded quickly.

Tha Dizzle and his good (atheist) friend, Apostate Prophet, are going to Israel:
I wish them well. It will be a great trip. I loved every minute of my trip to Israel, nearly 10 years ago – it was a life-changing experience for me. In my view, they will find the Israelis to be a good bunch of people, though their mindset will be very different from that of most Americans, because they live with the constant threat of war and annihilation.
That does not mean I condone or agree with the Gazacaust that they are now conducting. Israel has a right to exist, and therefore has a right to defend itself.
It DOES NOT, and has not had for over 3,500 years, the right to exterminate other peoples living in the land and around them, no matter WHAT the ultra-nationalist loonies in their political class say.

I keep saying that Muslims don’t know their own religion. They really don’t. It is astonishing how poorly they know and understand their own scriptures – because most of them only MEMORISE the Koran, they don’t actually read it. They also do not read the rest of the Sunnah. So they only know how to parrot the lies and propaganda they get from their imams.

Reading Too Much Into Things
Your Science is F***ing Weird moment of the week is from Dawn Pine, explaining how humans can control very large drone swarms – so basically, SkyNet is actually going to be a human:
Research involving Oregon State University has shown that a “swarm” of more than 100 autonomous ground and aerial robots can be supervised by one person without subjecting the individual to an undue workload.
The findings represent a big step toward efficiently and economically using swarms in a range of roles from wildland firefighting to package delivery to disaster response in urban environments.
“We don’t see a lot of delivery drones yet in the United States, but there are companies that have been deploying them in other countries,” said Julie A. Adams of the OSU College of Engineering. “It makes business sense to deploy delivery drones at a scale, but it will require a single person be responsible for very large numbers of these drones. I’m not saying our work is a final solution that shows everything is OK, but it is the first step toward getting additional data that would facilitate that kind of a system.”
The results, published in Field Robotics, stem from the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency’ program known as OFFSET, short for Offensive Swarm-Enabled Tactics. Adams was part of a group that received an OFFSET grant in 2017.
During the course of the four-year project, researchers deployed swarms of up to 250 autonomous vehicles — multi-rotor aerial drones, and ground rovers — able to gather information in “concrete canyon” urban surroundings where line-of-sight, satellite-based communication is impaired by buildings. The information the swarms collect during their missions at military urban training sites have the potential to help keep U.S. troops and civilians more safe.
Adams was a co-principal investigator on one of two swarm system integrator teams that developed the system infrastructure and integrated the work of other teams focused on swarm tactics, swarm autonomy, human-swarm teaming, physical experimentation and virtual environments.
“The project required taking off-the-shelf technologies and building the autonomy needed for them to be deployed by a single human called the swarm commander,” said Adams, the associate director for deployed systems and policy at OSU’s Collaborative Robotics and Intelligent Systems Institute. “That work also required developing not just the needed systems and the software, but also the user interface for that swarm commander to allow a single human to deploy these ground and aerial systems.”
Collaborators with Smart Information Flow Technologies developed a virtual reality interface called I3 that lets the commander control the swarm with high-level directions.
“The commanders weren’t physically driving each individual vehicle, because if you’re deploying that many vehicles, they can’t — a single human can’t do that,” Adams said. “The idea is that the swarm commander can select a play to be executed and can make minor adjustments to it, like a quarterback would in the NFL. The objective data from the trained swarm commanders demonstrated that a single human can deploy these systems in built environments, which has very broad implications beyond this project.”
Testing took place at multiple Department of Defense Combined Armed Collective Training Facilities. Each multiday field exercise introduced additional vehicles, and every 10 minutes swarm commanders provided information about their workload and how stressed or fatigued they were.
During the final field exercise, featuring more than 100 vehicles, the commanders’ workload levels were also assessed through physiological sensors that fed information into an algorithm that estimates someone’s sensory channel workload levels and their overall workload.
“The swarm commanders’ workload estimate did cross the overload threshold frequently, but just for a few minutes at a time, and the commander was able to successfully complete the missions, often under challenging temperature and wind conditions,” Adams said.
Your long read of the week is by Michael Hoffman, and does a pretty good job of explaining the difference between Satanism in theory and in practice – and, in fact, the practical applications of Satanist ideology are far more sinister than you might think, simply because of the subtlety involved:
Our post-modern world declares that sexual transgression (“lifestyle) can’t be wrong in that it is the consequence of “doing what you will.” Hence, it only seems to be wrong:
“… the task of working with the transformative energy of the Devil involves seeing past the appearance of evil” (p. 143). “Even those of us who consider ourselves sexually liberated Thelemites may discover that we have some residual shame and guilt complexes that need to be rooted out. Accordingly, in order to fully comprehend, experience, and express the divinity of the sexual force and the sexual impulse, we first need to wash away—to purify —those residual shards of shame and guilt that may cling to us” (p. 110).
“In the Qabalistic model which forms the foundation of the system (of initiation), the aspirant must fashion him or herself into a true ‘grail’ …the adept then takes up the task of aspiration unto the true and ultimate grail, the supernal cup of Babalon” (p. 150).
Aleister Crowley was fornicating, hooked on cocaine and heroine, sodomized in homosexual trysts, invoking demons in North African deserts, Sicilian groves—and through Jack Parsons at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California—all in the early 20th century. Here was the Archetypal Man of the sexual revolution. To say he was “way ahead of his time” is an anemic understatement.
One can choose to believe that the “sexual revolution” and the separation of the engendering of human life from the act of sex, were either at least partly a result of his invocations and those of others like him, or an accident of history which merely coincided with this “magick.” One thing is certain, however. The Satanism that was formerly the sole province of a sliver of western humanity is now a social media phenomenon in North America and Europe, so pedestrian it is banal—requiring ever more extreme thrills to slake the desires of the insatiable hungry ghost called lust.
There are no references to ritual murder—that other pyramid ashlar—in Living Thelema. And no doubt author David Shoemaker, who we accuse of no wrongdoing, is firmly opposed to it.
Beyond the kingdom of the secret societies, America is an abattoir of ritual murder of unborn human beings in the womb, and of youthful soldiers and Marines who died in forever wars on the sands of Iraq and Afghanistan, in addition to the many thousands of women and children who the American taxpayer-financed Israeli war machine has murdered.
Many persons ascribe this ocean of blood solely to the usual human folly and avarice of the military-industrial behemoth. They see no high priest and witness no Fay ce que voudras mumbo-jumbo. They imagine that all the killing is of a piece with the routine crimes and homicide of recorded history.
Yet some of us do intuit a special brand of evil now, a more virulent toxin derived from the laboratory where it has been synthesized out of the malignant sorcery built upon the depraved abuse of God’s personal name.
I particularly liked the fact that this article points out the abject failure of Christians, and especially Catholics, to use the ACTUAL name of God – YHWH – which His Hugeness Hizzself told and encouraged us to use, while Satanists happily use it to attack Him and His chosen people.
This is critically important to understand. Jesus’s name causes daemons to flee in terror, and rightly so – but YHWH is the name of the One God, the single essence that manifests in three persons. As Christians, we should never, ever be afraid of speaking that name, and of using it.
This is partly why one of my gym shirts has the actual Hebrew letters, יהוה, written in big yellow script on it. Though I am quiet about my faith in real life, I am not ashamed to call YHWH my God in public. Neither should you be.

In NYC on Valentines Day the women would wear full on makeup at the gym; It just didn’t look right.
I never played any of the Crash games but I’ll have to try them now. Conker is fun if you like 3D platformers, late 90’s South Park-style humor, and late 90’s movie references (which I do!). You’d probably appreciate it Didact, being that it was created by Brits and their cheeky sense of humor is omnipresent. It does have one of the worst segments I’ve ever played in a video game, though – an underwater race through spinning blades with a tight time limit.
The best way to play it today is Rare Replay on an XBOX. The N64 cart goes for $100 (mine came from $20 out of a Kay-Bee Toys bargain bin in 2002) and N64 games generally haven’t aged well and look like crap on modern TVs even with the right equipment due to the system’s built-in AA, which can’t be turned off without either GameShark codes or a hard mod.
The OG XBOX remake (Live & Reloaded) also will work on an XBOX, but the consensus is it’s inferior to the original because they bleeped all the swearing. I haven’t played it myself so can’t confirm.
