Wonderful Matters

The latest greatest in "AI"-generated video content comes from something called "Seedance 2.0." Nothing special about it except that it is just cleaner, smoother, nicer, and realer. Not really anything because soon there will still be  Better. And then after that even better. And better. And again better and better and better. And of course, Realer. When will the cognitive disruption be so great that the inability to see the fake from the real will result in some kind of social, economic, even political "black swan" event. As it is we are having to confront those realities, as it were, with breakneck speed. The things that can result from being able to be something of an influencer through media technology, merely holding a computer device in your hands with only the limits of your imagination impeding anything you can do as the best 21st century Baroque composer...  Every day we are experiencing something new we've never really had to fully address. T...

Do you remember in your college humanities class learning about the Baroque period, that time around the 1600s when everything belonging to the rich and powerful became garishly ornate? All the art, design, architecture, and music just got so much more decoratively entrancing. If you remember the details about why that all happened at that time, it was really all just part of the Counter Reformation, a way for the Roman Catholic Church to augment its performance art duties in the most attractive way it could. For if you remember the Reformation  Reformation, Rome noticed a lot of people reading the Bible and seeing God's Kingdom was nothing like what Rome told them it was. So, to rein them back in, Rome had to do something to make things more appealing, more dazzling, more compelling to keep them in the club and paying good money to keep the religious racket thriving.  All the spectacle of all that Rome has promoted through the centuries is no different than what happens in th...

Meet Amelia. Or have you met Amelia? If you're paying attention to the social media and ecclesiocratically injected propaganda, made so much more pronounced with the "AI"-generated graphic extravaganza, you may have met her. She's a smart, bold, brave, brash, sassy, pretty, hip, with-it young lady who is really good at persuasion, especially because she seems so, so modern what with her purple hair and mastery of the current rampaging sentiments among the younger adult class. Apparently she was originally a concoction of the UK government to promote all the spiffy Frankfurt School stuff they want everyone to embrace, you know, how much socialism and racialism and sodomism there must be so everyone can be ever so diversitous and equitous and inclusivonomous -- and as a bonus just see how spangtanimously virtuous the governing mandarins are at enforcing all this wonderfulness. Because it is so easy now with computer technology to take these prominent avatars, shape them...

"The Spirit of Truth the World cannot know." - From the 14th chapter of John A couple of things have gone viral in the cyber conversation, at least in one I've peeked at. One, an article came out in the Compact Mag webzine from a gentleman detailing how much he, and just about every other principled hard-working white male, has been hosed by the institutionally sanctioned racialism plowing over everything by the very loudest and most connected virtue-signaling Catholicists. Many taking offense have screeched about how unjust this has been and they've been ranting and panting and railing and wailing and all the rest of it. Excuse me, but why is this  getting such attention, now ? This kind of thing has been going on for decades, the abject discrimination against white males. Indeed, the ways the Romanist Hegemony manipulates the culture war for the purpose of its standard human sacrifice practices has been happening for millennia. It is all merely one among many of the...

Next year on July 4 the Great Americanist Populace will celebrate the country's semiquincentennial  (I'll bet you'll become acquainted with that term over the next few months), or its 250th birthday. There will be the grandest display of Americanist revelry -- the shows the parades the fireworks the colors the exhibitions the bunting the concerts the flag-waving the processions the feasting the speeches the massively inspirational pageantry all around. There will also likely be some hifalutin pontificating about the real  founding of the United States the-greatest-freest-bestest-country-on-the-planet, you know, lots about the American Revolution and George Washington and these freedom-starting things and those liberty-championing things and the delightfully powerful Americanist mythologies that give us warm patriotic fuzzies and some other heretofore bit more obscure element of the nation's founding that is no less exhilarating to reflect upon as all the others because ...

I felt like posting about another article from Brownstone , this one based on the ideas shared in the classic American novel The Grapes of Wrath. I have not read the book and all I know about the film is it stars Henry Fonda as an exasperated Tom Joad, a farmer afflicted with the unyielding vicissitudes of farm life, including that of powerful financial exploiters. He mentions one part that is quite instructive about the reality of The Monolith, that millennia-old entity that does the proper work of prosecuting the standard evildoing of a World System devoted populace. The bank is poised to take his farm, and he fervently exhibits a righteously justified resistance, speaking to the bulldozer driver about to raze his place. The author of the piece does make mention about having enough courage to just get out there and labor really hard to make change happen with the very best rhetorical convincing with the help of a lot of others who feel really really bad about how exploitive The Monol...
