It seems so distant now, Gene Roddenberry’s vision of all kinds of people working together, exploring strange new worlds, seeking out new life and new civilizations. He had a dream where conflict was resolved, mostly between the US and the Soviet Union, the eternal superpowers who once they worked out their differences, we could really […]
At Least Li’l Wayne’s Getting Pardoned
Trump also praised Lil Wayne as an activist and a “really nice guy.” Weezy got a lot of criticism for their pow wow, but it seems he’s on track to reap a big reward for it now. As we reported … Wayne pled guilty in federal court last month to illegally possessing a loaded weapon while traveling […]
They’d Cancel Martin Luther King
We have a day named after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., which is today. But let’s be honest, every SJW out there these days would cancel him based on this statement alone: “I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their […]
SJW Zealotry Leads To Their Stupidity
Or perhaps vice versa. Like clockwork, every time there’s an update on my libel case against Worldcon, File 770 talks about it. Imagine if the site focused on or cared about actual things in science fiction like my books, we might have a better world. And the volunteer from Worldcon in deposition seemed to agree […]
2021 Hugo Award And Worldcon ALREADY Embroiled In Controversy
I saw a bit of a fuss on Twitter by the usual SJW suspects. What could possibly be the issue this time? Of course, members of “marginalized communities.” You throw that term in there and you’re REALLY sorry. It took me awhile to figure out what the heck they were doing which was so outrageous […]
One Step Closer To Justice
Today I have my deposition for the Worldcon trial. It should go pretty well as they clearly libeled me with their statement on their website, which clearly resulted in the blacklisting of me in the industry with SFWA’s coordinated move to try to destroy me coming weeks after their announcement. It’s sad it takes this […]
God Demands Our Praise
At risk of sounding a little strange, I was given a dream last night in which the clear message of it is that the Lord is telling his people (including myself) he has not been receiving adequate praise and we should be working harder on this front. It makes sense. The last year has been […]
Social Media Platforms Don’t Matter
The past 5 years we’ve been conditioned to -need- facebook and twitter. It’s an addiction more than anything scrolling through there. Very little actual business gets done, even if you think you’re doing it. It’s a distraction. It’s always been a distraction, and the truth is at the end of the day if you get […]
They Don’t Care About “Violence” Only Identity
In 2017, SFWA President Cat Rambo worked overdrive to destroy my career in science fiction publishing. I’d come out with an article demonstrating conclusively by the numbers that women don’t need a “leg up” in publishing, that the industry is dominated and controlled by women, and Rambo violated SFWA rules by using their account to […]
Continually Moving Forward
Some days it’s hard to find a blog topic, especially when the political noise is cluttering everything and making it very hard to focus on cultural items, but the lesson of all of it is — a lot of things are out of our control and we just have to keep working on what we […]
The Earliest Of Comics
Last night I started reading Popeye by E.C. Segar, one of the earliest heroes in comics and maybe the first humor strip that had a continuing building narrative. The plotlines are simple, but there’s an elegance to them at the same time. The characters are wide-eyed, joyous about everything even their failures, excited for strange […]
It’s Vintage Sci-Fi Month!
I had not idea this was a thing but just discovered there’s a crew running a vintage sci-fi month. Every month is vintage sci-fi month for me, as when I read, that’s pretty much what I read. I just got finished with reading A.E. Van Vogt’s first novel, Slan, which was originally serialized in 1940 […]
Art, Beauty, and Truth and Cringy New Years Shows
Last night’s New Years Eve shows were about the saddest thing our culture’s ever produced. It was low budget, washed up D-Listers with empty streets and sad piped-in fake applause. It’s the culmination of everything our corporate culture has become: fake, empty, hollow, devoid of talent. Everyone’s incentivized to produce art which is functionless, meaningless, […]
SJW Comics Pros Take Another L
You might have seen me rabble rousing yesterday about a former Marvel Comics writer Sean McKeever. He took to twitter to be a complete dick to me for my “crime” of having bought his book directly from his online store (to help support him) and giving it a positive review. This isn’t abnormal in the […]
The Case Of The Missing Zorro Graphic Novel
In the 90s, Don McGregor was your Zorro writer. He penned one of the most famous Zorro runs from Topps Comics, as well as a daily syndicated newspaper strip. Those were cancelled, and a small start up company called Papercutz got the license for Zorro in the early 2000s. Papercutz is a company that specializes […]
What’s In A Name?
I came across a very interesting blog from Marvel editor Tom Brevoort today, which went over a claim that Ditko/Lee recycled characters and ideas through their stories. When you’re coming out with as many stories as they did, looks, names, ideas get recycled to some degree. It doesn’t make one incarnation less original than any […]
Alec Baldwin’s Wife Outed As Fake Spanish
Really funny moments on Twitter this morning. Baldwin’s wife, who goes by “Hilaria” even though her real name is “Hillary” has been caught faking being Spanish this entire time. Apparently, the Baldwins have a stalker who brought forth evidence of Hilaria faking an accent while she’s been getting interviews in Latina Magazine and the like […]
Keeping Children Off The Grid
It might come as somewhat of a surprise to people, but I don’t let my children play video games nor use the internet. I’ve watched as so many in this generation raised their kids on ipads, staring at a screen like zombies from the age of zero, and they can hardly function in any environment […]
My Doggo’s Home
For those who have been following for the last couple of weeks, my dog’s had a big health scare. He’s a puppy, so it’s weird. Too many strange symptoms from a 104 fever to a lot of pain, refusal to poop for several days. It was really frightening. Doctors kept telling me there were some […]
It Takes A Flow Chart To Read Star Trek
I was curious as to Star Trek novelizations, as folk around here might know I’m a big fan of the show. When I looked into “where I should start reading” because, of course, they have their own continuity set up after the shows which has a zillion books, I found out it’s not-so-easily done: Look […]
The Follies Of Fandom
“The biggest problem in comics is comic book fandom. By definition, the fan is single-minded, not interested in exploration and an open mind. This is dumbing down and deviation up.” – Steve Ditko Steve Ditko wrote many essays in his later years about the destructiveness of the comic book industry and particularly that of fans. […]
The Incentive of E-Drama YouTube Videos
It’s funny, but there’s a contingent of people out there who all make videos about other YouTube folk in order to try to get their attention to make more videos about how they “owned” them by getting their attention. It’s pretty sad. There’s whole channels dedicated to this, and I’ve seen a little ecosystem of […]
Hack The World!
I’ve been hit on the site again with huge hack attacks over the last 2 days, which kept repeatedly banning my IP from accessing my website. As you can tell, I’m back on now. What it tells me is I’m hitting over the target of the enemy’s narrative, laying MOABs on their work to subvert […]
Is Society This Pathetic?
Cartoon Network ran a series of cringy comics about using pronouns, one of the dumbest concepts THEIRkind has ever invented and is sweeping through SJW circles faster than the COVID plague. The main takeaway is….they feel seen. What does that even mean? Why is that the goal? This is the end result of a nihilistic […]
