The Iron Ding-Bat Strikes Again!

This week, the Michigan Medical Veterinary Association sent a formal request to Governor Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan. As Corona is on the downswing they asked her to rescind her orders regarding the severe restrictions she placed on spays and neuters. Her view when that order was imposed in March was that those operations were elective […]

Eastern Story Structure

I recently asked you, my beloved Darklings, if you would like me to do an essay on Eastern storytelling traditions as opposed to Western. The support for this was overwhelming.  Three of you said, yes. Let’s begin. Hakawati, is the Arabic tradition of story telling wherein each story must have… Unfallen Darklings: Uh, Cataline that wasn’t […]

Interesting Times

There used to be two basic kinds of Inuit villages.  Whale hunters and Salmon fishers. When the whalers landed a whale, times were fat.  There was plenty of everything because there is a lot to go around when you are living off of a whale.  Unless there aren’t any whales to hunt.  Put a pin in this one. We […]

Burning Their Own Temples

They continue to burn their own phanes and temples and dance naked in the ruins, even though they really shouldn’t because SJWs do NOT look good that way.  Not even a little bit.

Kay-Kay is in T-r-o-u-b-l-e!

I won’t say that things couldn’t be worse for the American entertainment industry. They could. Civilization hasn’t genuinely fallen apart. There is a very faint light at the end of the tunnel. Their services can be sold again once the great lock-down is over. But it’s very rough going for now. When this first broke, […]

Is Black Widow Still Alive?

I can’t help but wonder why the hell they are making the Black Widow movie? Typically speaking, a prequel that features a character that died in the previous movie, doesn’t do all that well in the box office. I mean, why would you take an interest? Even if you really, really liked the character it’s […]
