When It’s #SpaceOperaWeek And Your Contributors Hate Space Opera
It boggles my mind how an innocuous topic can be ruined by critics. It seems like that is a hallmark of our culture these days as well as the “Cult of the New” which I posted about last evening. All of these problems trickle into everything and make it so people simply can’t have any […]
Retro Review: Sassinak by Anne McCaffrey and Elizabeth Moon #SpaceOperaWeek
What timing, as over the weekend I read this space opera beauty by Grand Master of Science Fiction Anne McCaffrey, and one of the space opera greats, Elizabeth Moon. Ms. McCaffrey was extremely generous with the brand name in the late 80s early 90s, co-writing with a number of folk to help increase awareness for […]
The Cult Of The New And Its Destruction Of Culture
Here’s a topic I haven’t really touched before, but it’s relevant to the way that culture has been systematically destroyed by a certain group over the last few decades. I’ve seen it discussed elsewhere as “the cult of the new” — where it’s driven by this near thoughtless consumerism of I NEED THE NEW […]
Comic Review: Green Lantern Corps: Rebirth Vol. 1
What’s interesting about the DC reboots is some of them don’t even try to “start over” but launch with the assumption that you know everyone and everything going on. For Green Lantern Corps and the Sinestro Corps and all that with the yellow/green war for who’s policing the galaxy – it pretty much assumes you’ve […]

When You Converge Into SJW Politics, Everyone Loses
It’s a very simple formula. I could teach a business class on this and it would be very useful for young college students. Step 1: Have a nice company that produces something everyone enjoys. Step 2: SJWs enter the company, start removing anyone who’s not SJW and replacing with political operatives. Step 3: Company loses […]
The Last Crusade: Arming Future Teachers For Battle
From Pastor and brilliant theologian Rob Dalrymple. If any of you feel compelled to assist, contact me, or him if you know him or comment. I can’t think of any more important a mission than ensuring future gifted and brilliant minds are educated and armed to go out there into the world and preach the gospel. […]
Comic Review: Eternal Warrior Awakening #1
After discovering the new X-O Manowar and going back through the Valiant universe titles… I’m very near the point where if it says “Valiant Comics” on it, I’m going to at least try out an issue. Eternal Warrior: Awakening also is written by Robert Venditti, who as I mentioned in a review of Armor […]
BayCon Announces Program Riddled With Toxic Politics
A couple of months ago, I entered the conversation in the Science Fiction and Fantasy world in a big way by daring to speak out about a long-time sci-fi convention and their bad behavior with the way they treat anyone who disagrees with their staff politically. I was very scared at first, because I’d always […]
