I talk about an unfairly maligned bit of wackiness called October Faction and discuss an otherwise decent publications rather overzealous critique of China/CCP.
I continue the discussion of civilizational decline. With an examination of the difference between principle and allegiance and what this means for the rule of law.
Other Supporting Topics Include
How anti-intellectualism and the abdication of the Enlightenment ethos have led to ack of the moral courage required to secure inalienable liberties.
Anecdotes of how ill-informed individuals in my life have demonstrated an attachment to allegiances rather than principles.
How the lack of a skeptical mindset has led to monopolies that create huge supply line problems; as all centralized systems of business and government do.

Peter Hitchens does a rather excellent job of describing our decline. It is not the moralist’s self-righteous ramblings that Hitchens brings to the table. But, rather a very tangible, quantifiable, decay in standards and practices that affect everything from personal interactions to jurisprudence.
Just today whilst on a check-out line, the gentleman ahead of me announced to the cashier how he was part of a Facebook group that ‘spied on crazy people.’
I discuss why this Stasi like behavior is concerning and tie it to Hitchens admonishments.
Finally, I launch into a discussion of Peter Hitchen’s 2018 appearance on Good Morning Britain. Thanks, for listening.

So, I’m currently holding the wee bit of left bollock that hasn’t retreated up my abdomen with the rest of the kit. A feat courtesy of hearing that my shift starts at 4:15 AM. As such I can’t bring you the regularly scheduled joy of disjointed rambles that would make a a schizophrenic shaman on a peyote bender seem like a card carrying Presbyterian freemason. (Yes, I stole that last bit from Billy Connoly.)
Therefore I share with you my gleeful joy in confirming that FATTIES ARE MOST AFFECTED. If you’re a jolly person of size. No beef with you. If you have a glandular problem. I’ve no donut with you. If you just don’t give a fuck. I’ve no quarter pounder with you. Yes, this is the shittiest joke of all time. Welcome to history cunts.
No, the thing I have a problem with is moralizing fatasses wagging wingers (lol that was a typo but imagonnakeepit) at folk exercising because of a HEALTH CRISIS.
My gdad who has had two strokes already got more than winded after his walk this afternoon. He is currently in the hospital. I discuss the situation at my local ER and do some broader social commentary.
I’m just as concerned that he’s going to get Covid from the hospital as I am about the possibility of having just had a third stroke.

Ugh, it’s gonna be another chore laden day. While, I really think homeownership is one of the keys to liberty it’s also a huge pain in the ass. Especially as concerns labyrinthine beauracratic horrors associated therewith.
In the interest of not going into another sterile spell here’s some links I’m poring over in case I don’t get to make an actual video or post something today.
Again, follow the shit that makes sense (which you should be doing anyway) like washing your hands, covering your sneezes, and not standing within makeout range of grannies.
And if you really wanna be a boyscout take a look at what these pale Irish fuckers suggest:
