The Soros Freedom

Soros should refuse. He doesn’t believe in the nation-state and doesn’t want it to exist. He shouldn’t be receiving honors from nation-states. I refused to be honored at the “Admirable Womxn” event because I’m not a womxn. Why can’t an elderly, mega rich man choose his principles over a meaningless (to him) bauble is incomprehensible. Why, in short, is he so unfree after doing his darndest to inflict neoliberal freedom worship on all of us?

One of Those Women

Yes, right, a woman. One of those gigantic women who knife strangers in unprovoked violent outbursts.

I’m heartsore for actual women who will be incarcerated next to this individual.

I Blame Psychology

In reality, it’s not STEM vs Humanities. It’s bloody Psychology – a completely fake degree that its own faculty openly refer to as “fluff” – that’s destroying higher ed. Half of the incoming Freshman class goes into psychology, and then everybody who flunks out of actual disciplines joins them there. There are no jobs for a BA in psychology because the degree doesn’t let you see patients or offer counseling.

There’s a tragic shortage of competent psych providers but that’s an issue that is entirely disconnected from the overproduction of Psychology BAs.

Real Winter

We are expecting a snow storm and a cold spell. And I don’t mean Midwestern cold which is a bit fresher than scorching heat. It’s going to be cold even according to my exacting standards. -22°C is what’s being promised by the weather service, and I hope it won’t disappoint.

The lines at the grocery store today were Soviet length but filled with typical American goodwill and kindness. I bought Jerusalem artichokes and 3 different kinds of milk, and we are now ready to enjoy real winter.

Achievement Marker

99,9% of women want to be in a loving relationship. In fact, being in a relationship is a female achievement marker beyond absolutely any other from early teenage years until death. Among female peer groups nobody gives a crap how much money you make, how many degrees you have, how many books you published, etc. Or how many children you have if there’s no dude in the package.

I wonder if the guy in the posted comment is really that clueless and sincerely doesn’t know this or if it’s a cope.

Wrong Persona

Netflix is premiering a new show with Meghan Markle where she’s going to attempt to position herself as a new Martha Stewart.

The makers of the show are so unprofessional that they don’t understand that the reason behind Martha Stewart’s outlandish popularity wasn’t her recipes or flower arrangements. Stewart has a phlegmatic temperament, which reads as low-anxiety. Her female fans were mesmerized by what they perceived as a non-anxious woman in a culture that plays up neurotic female behavior.

Meghan Markle comports herself as a standard neurotic. The persona of a calm domestic goddess is alien to her every faculty. That’s why she looks so weird surrounded by the same flower pots that made Martha Stewart a billionaire.

Speak Clearly

I very much despise the use of words like “grooming” as a shamefaced stand-in for “rape” and “trafficking” to substitute “pimping.” The same goes for “sex work” instead of “prostitution.”

Let’s avoid this Newspeak and express ourselves clearly.

A Pretty Video

Mrs Uglypants is gone, and I’m back looking normal and sitting amidst digitally generated luxury:

By the way, Klara was in the room during the taping, so if you hear soft rustling sounds in the background, it’s Klara working on her art.

Q&A: Readers Share

Thank you for sharing, друже! I’m very sorry, this is so sad. I can’t imagine how hard it must be. We have mountains of family dysfunction, like everybody from the USSR, but my father steered us off the pro-Russian path. He was very gentle except on the really important issues where he was unbreakable.

You are always welcome here, please know that.

Pakistani Rape Gangs

I wrote about Pakistani rape gangs in the UK back in 2014. It’s good that the tragedy of these victims is being discussed in the mainstream but solving this terrible issue will take more than discussion.

One positive development is that the new Tory leader is Kemi Badenoch who is very black and, hence, openly says that some cultures are superior to others. Now we need people to be able to say what Badenoch does without the protection of race. The British experiment with bringing crowds of savages and unleashing them on the native population has been a disaster. Anybody who wants to object to the word “savages” needs to go read the court transcripts and then come here and explain what happened to their moral compass that they can witness such horrors and not be able to name them.

I spent years being harassed by precisely such savages in Canada. And OK, I wasn’t a child, lucky me, so I only experienced inconvenience, humiliation, and discomfort. But as I’ve been saying for 15 years here on the blog, there are so few places on the planet where you can just go about your day, unmolested and surrounded with politeness and normal behavior. We are mighty lucky to be in such places, created for us by the extraordinary work and self-betterment of preceding generations, and we are pissing it all away.

People have published a lot of good analytical pieces about the rape gangs. The rapists come from highly inbred societies, they are tribal, they abuse high-trust societies, they can’t peacefully coexist with our culture’s love for individual freedom. This is all true but the main thing is that they should be exactly how and what they want – tribal, clannish, rapey – back home. The importance of mass migration for the economy was a myth judging by the endless austerity in the UK.
