The events in New York and Virginia of the past couple of weeks have been interesting, to say the least. The abortion debate has escalated dramatically, with talk of fourth-trimester abortions and keeping the infant “comfortable” while “a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.” Without getting too much into the politics of… Continue reading Reworking The Paradox of Choice

Would you kill baby Hitler?
So the March for Life happened recently, and Ben Shapiro did a live show where he used a thought experiment about going back in a time machine to kill baby Hitler to make a pro-life argument. His argument was that you shouldn’t kill baby Hitler; instead, you should raise baby Hitler in a more loving… Continue reading Would you kill baby Hitler?
Christine Blasey Ford raped me
As you may have heard, the congressional hearings for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh have been thrown into chaos late in the eleventh hour by shocking allegations of sexual misconduct. The accuser is a certain professor Christine Blasey Ford from Palo Alto, California. According to her, when Kavanaugh was around seventeen (I say “around,” because… Continue reading Christine Blasey Ford raped me

Thoughts on #AmazonClosed and disappearing KU reads
There are a lot of scandals happening in the indie publishing world right now. The latest one has to do with Amazon deleting KU reads from March: some authors have seen their page reads retroactively revised down as much as ninety percent. The speculation is that this is connected with Amazon deactivating several customer accounts,… Continue reading Thoughts on #AmazonClosed and disappearing KU reads
Further thoughts on the Florida school shooting
The Broward County sheriff needs to resign or be fired immediately, and should also stand trial for criminal negligence. There’s something rotten in the state of Florida, and it all points back to this man. CNN has completely lost all credibility. As far as I’m concerned, they rank slightly above Alex Jones and slightly below… Continue reading Further thoughts on the Florida school shooting
Undercover Antifa: This story needs to get out!
There’s a lot that I could say, but I think the video speaks for itself: One question: when Antifa has their Charlottesville moment and somebody dies at their hands, how is the mainstream media going to cover it? What is the narrative going to be? Good on team Crowder for exposing these domestic terrorists. Make… Continue reading Undercover Antifa: This story needs to get out!
To escape or to engage
A couple of weeks ago, I finally sat down and wrote a (semi-) formal business plan. It was an enlightening experience. I’ve kept it all organized in many different ways, but writing it all down in one place allows me to step back and take a wider look at what I do. No business plan… Continue reading To escape or to engage
Thoughts on the violence in Charlottesville
No one is right in any of this. I tend to lean to the “right,” but it’s a completely different “right” than any of the protesters at this event. Constitutional conservatives and classical liberals are both increasingly endangered species in this country, and that’s a problem. Nothing in our Constitution supports Nazism and white nationalism.… Continue reading Thoughts on the violence in Charlottesville
An open letter to Google
To whom it may concern, My name is Joseph Vasicek, and I have been a regular user of your company’s products since 2006 when I set up my first Gmail account. Until the events of the past week, I was also a satisfied user. The recent firing of James Damore over the controversial internal memo… Continue reading An open letter to Google
