This guy gets it

As I said previously, this is the defining moral conflict of our times. From the Book of Mormon: 7 And now I write somewhat concerning the sufferings of this people. For according to the knowledge which I have received from Amoron, behold, the Lamanites have many prisoners, which they took from the tower of Sherrizah; and there… Continue reading This guy gets it

The defining moral conflict of our times

In just ten days, this comedy skit has gotten about 1.2M views on YouTube, and probably a lot more on X. It’s gone viral for a couple of reasons: first, because it makes fun of celebrities, who most of us Americans now love to hate; and second, because most of us who have watched it… Continue reading The defining moral conflict of our times

Back from Coeur d’Alene

It occurs to me that most of my posts in the past month have either been extremely doom-and-gloom, or they’ve been excerpts from some of my most recent work. This probably gives the impression that I’m huddled in a corner somewhere, black-pilled and traumatized, and seeking some sort of an escape through my writing, when… Continue reading Back from Coeur d’Alene

How the Israeli-Hamas war will likely turn into WWIII before Christmas

The purpose of this post is not to pick any particular side or advocate for any particular action, but to give a back-of-the-napkin analysis of the current situation on the ground in the Middle East and project where it will likely go in the coming days and weeks. My goal is to approach the geopolitics… Continue reading How the Israeli-Hamas war will likely turn into WWIII before Christmas

Thoughts on the recent escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

For the last couple of days, I’ve been going back and forth on whether to write this post. It’s not something that’s directly in my wheelhouse, and few things turn me off to other writers and artists more than when they feel a need to publicly post their every knee-jerk reaction to the political issues… Continue reading Thoughts on the recent escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

2024 US election scenarios that would fulfill the Ezra’s Eagle prophecy

For a background and explanation of the Ezra’s Eagle prophecy, read this first. I also did a blog post about it here. A lot of people who were following Ezra’s Eagle in 2020 thought that Trump’s presidency would end before the 2020 election, probably with an assassination, and that Mike Pence would be the second… Continue reading 2024 US election scenarios that would fulfill the Ezra’s Eagle prophecy

A letter to Christina Paxson, President of Brown University

President Christina Paxson, I am sending this email to you because your voice mailbox is full, no doubt from listeners (such as myself) of popular conservative commentator Matt Walsh who gave us your (publicly listed) number and email address and encouraged us to reach out to you. Lest you think that this email constitutes harassment,… Continue reading A letter to Christina Paxson, President of Brown University

In Defense of Black & White Morality

I was born in 1984, and for most of my life, stories with black and white morality—in other words, stories about the struggle between good and evil, with good guys who are good and bad buys who are bad—have been considered unfashionable and out of style. This is especially true of fantasy, where grimdark has… Continue reading In Defense of Black & White Morality

Short-form vs. long-form fantasy

For the last month, I’ve been doing a lot of research into the fantasy genre, rereading all of the original Conan the Barbarian stories by Robert E. Howard and a bunch of the other ones too, by authors like L. Sprague De Camp, Lin Carter, Bjorn Nyberg, Robert Jordan, etc. I’ve also been reading a… Continue reading Short-form vs. long-form fantasy
