Wonderful Matters

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...

I simply have to put up something of a blog post to make note of a video I saw on my social media feed. Here is a screenshot of a part of it, the part where the federal government needs its bank to print up more money so it can continue to virtue-signal with impunity. And yes, of course, get filthy rich doing so. Some guy very likely used Google's Veo3 to make an "AI" generated Nelson Aldrich figure and his background cohorts, and yes, it looks amazingly convincing. For about two minutes Mr. Aldrich regales us with the veritable realities of what the Federal Reserve does actually do. Indeed it is extraordinarily wicked, interminably eviscerating the value assignment of the industrious and productive efforts of regular people. Oh how infuriating this is! Of course this video ends with a promotion for bitcoin. No, sorry, that's  the part that is infuriating, watching these crypto con artists continue to brazenly hawk their meaningless computer numbers to do exactly the ...

Recently an interview response by the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors for the president of the United States went viral. It was only a couple minutes long, this take by Jared Bernstein, and it was essentially this: Question: "Why does the United States government have to borrow its own currency?" Answer: "Um, well, err, umm, I mean, hmm, urrp, umm, blippity-blappity-oopy. [Long pauses throughout]." He was mercilessly ridiculed by the legion of trollees remarking quite viciously throughout the cybersphere, and as I sometimes do I will look at the comments and see if anyone gets it. Most times they don't, by miles. Most people like to post thinking they are blapping about how genius they are but they are only demonstrating how ill-informed or just plain stupid they are themselves. Well, I shouldn't call people fools. No matter how many billions there are of them, I really shouldn't. But they are indeed exploited by the System Ops to be such. A...

I absolutely had to put up a post simply with the image I saw at the ZeroHedge piece about yet another guy blapping about how rotten all the dollar exploitation is nowadays (a very veritable truism certainly) and how much we all need to move our asses and get into gold or crypto (just as veritable a truism that this is just as rotten). It doesn't matter what it is, the Roman Catholic Ecclesiocracy Racket will still be exactly like the image depicts. (Forgive me for not knowing who to afford attribution, but here is the page with that story and the image there about halfway down.) As I looked at this thing in all its splendid glory, I could only think of the rule established in all Roman Catholic dominated towns in Europe through the last few centuries, as really pretty much all of them were even at the height of the Protestant Reformation. The rule stated that no building could be erected that was higher or as high as the main Roman Catholic church building or cathedral. Really, ...

When I was a kid and I was out and about with my family, we might see someone doing something painfully unusual, often it was willfully displaying large parts of their unclothed body in public (sometimes it was their entire body!) My mother would almost always instruct us that this individual was an exhibitionist , and she explained. These kind of people have a pathological need to do something like that to gain attention, to elicit some kind of response from others -- they are terribly insecure and wounded individuals who must act out in attempt to cover for that. Today you hear about such individuals as being narcissistic , but I think that is not quite as good a descriptive term as exhibitionist. By virtue of the definition derived from the original mythology, a narcissist should be happy spending the day looking at his or her image in the mirror. The exhibitionist, on the other hand, goes out and commands people feed his pathology. I saw a meme quote the other day and it somewhat a...

I simply had to put up a brief post with a link to this article . It is over at Quillette , and they generally have quite solid pieces there from writers who are courageous enough to articulately tell truthful things. Some of those pieces actually do get into the rank horrors of the sodomist cult, particularly regarding the craze of mutilating one's own body to show off how much he or she believes he or she is the opposite sex. I do believe all the sodomist insanity marauding through society is the most instrumental thing that will destroy our present civilization, not necessarily because of the sodomist stuff itself, although it is extraordinarily rotten, but that it represents such a profound rejection of biblical standards for relationships, starting with male-female distinctions, interactions, and the very significant innate roles each sex must play for a society to function in a healthy way -- all the way to what happens with the children and their emotional and spiritual form...

The World System does human sacrifice. Today. Everywhere to everyone. It is done in dozens of different ways in the most imaginatively pertinent and mostly imperceptible ways. It is carried out at the behest of the militantly religious and insidiously brilliant deepest state operatives working within the Roman Ecclesiocracy. And yes, it is all accomplished by God's permission for the divine purpose of regulating the behavior of reprobate people, those who simply refuse to appropriate righteousness in the only place it can be found: Jesus Christ. In my last post I'd written a bit about how the System has utterly whacked out what we are to think about the critically important thing sexuality , you know, that we all know it is perfectly fine for people to put their genitals against any other living being they want as long as it is "consensual," that enough people should wave rainbow-type banners or wear the appropriate ribbons to show how tolerant and not-mean they are,...

There's a show on the NBC network called American Greed . Every episode showcases some crook who'd spent years hoodwinking a whole bunch of people, separating them from gobs of their money in sometimes very insidiously imaginative ways. The show's appeal also comes with the inevitable instances when they do something tremendously stupid leading to their prosecution in some form or another. It is certainly greed that is involved, but a far worse crime is the deeper motivating force: pride. This is the idea that virtue-signaling out of one's rear end is too intoxicating never mind what kinds of immoralities must be in the mix to do that. Recently the head of a crypto exchange was exposed as his multi-billion dollar money laundering operation went belly-up. Funny, at about exactly the same time this was unravelling another whiz kid showcased everywhere a few years ago as the next Somebody-Previously-Super-Famous was sentenced to quite a lengthy prison term for her widely b...
