Lazy Days in the Labyrinth

“One is so apt to think of people’s affection as a fixed quantity, instead of a sort of moving sea with the tide always going out or coming in but still fundamentally there: and I believe this difficulty in making allowance for the tide is the reason for half the broken friendships.” – –  Freya Stark wrote that in a letter to Venetia Budicom on May 20, 1934.

Rotting Beef – Tastes Kind of Like Old Lamb: Funky and Stinky “I’ve been describing it like the taste of roasted hazelnuts and dehydrated mushrooms,” says Billy Oliva, executive chef of Delmonico’s. The lower Manhattan restaurant is marking its 180th anniversary by offering a 180-day dry-aged bone-in rib eye, served on a keepsake plate, for $380.

This insidious process of begging the question is typical of totalitarian propaganda which made abundant use of expressions like “undeniably”, “unquestionably” or as “everyone knows” or their more modern equivalents like as “all decent people agree …”, “the science is settled” or “this is not who we are” to assume what must otherwise be proved. But it nevertheless compels obedience like a herd driving itself along. Ideology unbound | Belmont Club

Radical Chic Redux – American Greatness The Manson family, Bernadine Dohrn, Bill Ayers, these were the freaks thrown up by the 1960s. We knew they were contemptible, and that Leonard Bernstein was ridiculous. But now they’re mainstream. We see it in the Washington Post’s fawning stories about the Antifa thugs, the support given to Leslie Van Houten, and in Chelsea Manning’s support group. Tom Wolfe called it Radical Chic when it was the province of a precious elite but now it’s gone mainstream. It’s Radical Chic Redux, and it stinks of cultural degradation.

Trash Life — Real Life  Often I am my messiest in my hard drive, where I store in poorly labeled folders everything I have ever downloaded, for no good reason. One friend described to me hoarding tabs. Can we call the person who has 14,000 unopened emails a hoarder? Can you imagine clearing out your inbox with the KonMari method: Does this email spark joy?

The Truth Behind ESPN’s Failure Whether they know it or not, liberalism has killed ESPN. People tune to ESPN to hear about sports not politics from their liberal sportscasters. Here is a compilation of all the times ESPN turned to liberal politics which has led them to troubles.

This is the largest container ship in the world. It can hold over 19,000 containers and is so massive, the recent expansion of The Panama Canal is still unable to accommodate it’s size.

 Let the Dead Bury the Tenured I’m old enough to remember when conservatives were free to speak in our Temples of Truth without $600,000 in police protection. Churchill once cracked that “In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.” In our current civil war, truth needs a bodyguard, period. An army of them if it ventures near a liberal campus.

Because your ancestors were mean to non-whites, you just have to shut up and take whatever abuse non-whites heap on you. That includes the humiliation of pretending that airheads like Mx.Finley are saying anything of value. It means pretending that Genius T. Coates is not a puerile blockhead with the reasoning skills of a sixth grader. It is not enough to write the check.No, the honky has to grovel while delivering it. Cheering For My Team | The Z Blog

    Why didn’t Groucho ever point his rifle at Karl Marx?

    Why would Groucho shoot a Marx brother?
    Oh, wait…

    Order me up a couple of those dad bags.

    In other news, You Tube thinks I’m a neo nazi, now. I played My Mix, and about five down they have white racist, straight up, Aryan bullshit videos. So, I’ve watched them, now, which is a further indictment. Fuckers.

    Mike Nesmith was a gaudy phony who I met in San Antonio in 1964 or ’65. At that point he played folk shows with a bass player, both of them wearing Beatle haircuts, white Levi’s, work shirts and half-boots, playing some hybrid of Froggie Went A’Courtin’ with a rocknroll beat which he labeled “Rock Folk.” When he left for LA he drove around San Antonio for the better part of a week with all his gear and a girlfriend packed into a bug-eye Sprite and announcing at random intervals how he was “off to Californy-o.”

    I later discovered that his mother invented Wite-out around that time, so all the “struggling artist” bullshit was the usual con perpetrated by the Hipper-Than-You-Are of that era. A year later he was a Monkee, which surprised not at all.

    I’m really surprised by what seems like meticulous accuracy of the insignia on the uniform of the SS officer Groucho’s drawing a bead on. I’ve seen movies from that era where the costuming is pretty rudimentary.
