Little Black House on the Prairie

There are just so many ways this is almost certain to go very, very wrong:

Little House on the Prairie fans are voicing their concern after Netflix revealed plans to release a new take on the beloved Western series, which aired from 1974 to 1982. On Wednesday, the streaming giant announced they were working on a ‘fresh adaptation’ of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s series of American children’s novels.

It has been more than 40 years since the original, long-running series wrapped its final episode after nine seasons in 1984.

In a statement, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Jinny Howe, vp drama series for Netflix, revealed that the reboot will be a ‘fresh take on this iconic story.’

Fresh take = Pa is going to be an escaped slave, Ma is going to be a strong, independent Jewish feminist, Mary will be crippled by polio because she didn’t get vaccinated, and Laura and Nellie will have an ambiguously lesbian relationship.

There is some real Rings of Power potential for disaster here.

Wruh-Wroh, Wrexham

Those Hollywood millions may be flowing out of Wales even more quickly than they flowed in after Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought the team. Lady C, who usually knows what’s going on behind the scenes, explains why Reynolds and Lively appear to be heading for defeat in court, as well as, she suspects, a divorce.

Here’s the story. Reynolds has form in hijacking movies from their originators and not only taking credit for them, but taking the profitability as well. When he and Lively realised that “It Ends With Us” was going to become a huge hit – and Baldoni, who was not only the male lead but also the brains behind the film, the producer, director, script writer and held the option to a sequel, had control of the project – they set about wresting control of the movie frmom him.

However, to achieve their objective of supplanting Baldoni, they had to obtain the rushes and edit the movie themselves. And that’s where things derailed… Ryan Reynolds became increasingly unsettled (to be polite) when he witnessed the unbridled attraction his wife was displaying towards Baldoni… So what does Lively do? Ever the pastmistress of deflection, she denies behing attracted to Baldoni, spins her overt acts of attraction into victimhod, and blames her co-star for taking advantage of her. Remember, at this point, neither Lively nor Reynolds appreciated that Baldoni had footage with sound which could disprove her accusations.

Now, it all made sense to me except one thing. How could publicly destroying the man guarantee them the control over the sequel that they were allegedly pursuing? Did they think he would grant it to them in a settlement, when the movie did $350 million globally? That seemed… improbable.

Well, it’s been reported that there was a clause in his original purchase of the IP that would strip him of the right to use them for the sequel if he was accused of sexual harassment. Which, to me, tends to tie the whole thing together.

It’s entirely possible that this scenario isn’t exactly correct, and even if it is, it’s at least theoretically possible that everyone involved takes a deep breath, steps back, and realizes that letting bygones by bygones and making nice in public would be a win-win-win for everyone. But where sex, pride, and lawyers are involved, people are seldom rational about their interests.

Anyhow, I hope for the sake of the town and team of Wrexham that the vagaries of celebrity ownership don’t wreck what has been a very good thing for everyone, including our community and our FC.

Let California Burn

Not only did Californians vote repeatedly and consistently for this obvious madness, but their current state government has obviously learned absolutely nothing from its massive failures. Oregon fire stations have sent 60 fire engines to help fight the Los Angeles fires, but the California Department of Transportation is reportedly demanding to inspect all of them before they can be permitted to fight the fires.

Those 60 engines sent yesterday to the Cali fires are not on the fire lines…yet. They’ve been ordered to submit to a DOT inspection in Sacramento that’s scheduled for 4:30 pm today. If they clear the inspection, they’ll THEN be able to drive 400 miles to Pacific Palisades. Talk about “looking a gift horse in the mouth.” Then, on the way home, they get inspected again, and if they get red tagged, it’s “fix it before you can return.”

The sad reality is that you get the government you tolerate. There is no point in just trying to go along to get along, because sooner or later, a wicked or incompetent government is going to destroy your life, your liberty, and your property. And it doesn’t really matter if it’s evil, stupid, or as in most cases, both.

Convergence always results in incompetence. Always, and every single time. Because convergence eliminates an organization’s ability to perform its core functions.

I wouldn’t blame the Oregon fire chiefs if they said, “fine, never mind,” and ordered the fire trucks to return to Oregon.

Babylon Babbles

Forget Western civilization. When did the Jews ever have anything to do with any civilization? They’re still a literally nomadic tribe! Did they invent civilization when they were enslaved for four centuries in Egypt? When ten of the 12 tribes were carried off by the Assyrians? Or perhaps they invented Western civilization in Babylon while they were enslaved there? I don’t suppose they could have invented civilization when they were being ruled by the Medo-Persians or by Rome.

If we are to take their historic claims to the land of Israel by right of conquering the Canaanites seriously, then they’ve never been part of Western civilization at all, let alone responsible for any part of its invention. The fact that this historic land is in the Middle EAST would be the first clue there.

But Joel Berry does provide us with the useful service of conclusively disproving the ludicrous 115 average IQ fiction. The amusing thing is that these historical illiterates who take the Straussian Athens + Jerusalem metaphor literally don’t realize that it’s simply a metaphor that refers to Western philosophy and religion, not the actual cities or their historic residents.

Swastikas in London

If Keir Starmer is going to “fight the poison of the far-right” as hard as he fought the Pakistani rape gangs, there will be swastikas flying over Parliament and Prince William will be acclaimed as Fuhrer by June.

Keir Starmer hit back at Elon Musk today in the increasingly bitter spat over his record on grooming gang cases. The PM mounted a robust defence as he took questions after laying out NHS waiting list plans this morning. Sir Keir said ‘child sexual exploitation is utterly sickening’ and victims had been ‘let down’ – but he insisted he had tackled the issues ‘head on’ as director of public prosecutions.

The premier accused opposition politicians of ‘amplifying what the far-right is saying’ on child sexual abuse after falling to act ‘for 14 long years’. He insisted he would fight the ‘poison of the far right’, arguing that those who are ‘spreading lies and misinformation.. are not interested in victims, they are interested in themselves’.

The fact that Clown World has to rely on the likes of Starmer, Trudeau, and the Six Bidens just to keep its narrative going is one of the most obvious indications that it is in its terminal stage.

A False and Retarded God

One of the tragedies of the Boomers is that they gave up the faith of their fathers for an absolutely impossible lie, as evidenced by ESR’s attempt to defend the societal devastation that has been left in the wake of the wicked generation of the Boomers.

Religion failed us… I don’t think it could have gone differently; it’s a failure that had been on the cards ever since the mechanistic worldview reached effective completion by Darwin.
– Eric S. Raymond

But as I have conclusively and comprehensively proven, the mechanistic worldview is obviously false due to the mathematical falsification of not only Darwin, but the very mechanism of evolution by natural selection. If you still believe that species turn into other species due to natural selection, you are not only ignorant, you are observably innumerate and scientifically outdated.

The complete scientific falsification of the neo-Darwinian synthesis has already been accomplished, it simply hasn’t been widely recognized because biologists are too mathematically challenged and insufficiently skilled at pattern recognition to put the various pieces together yet. Consider the following pieces:

  • The fastest observed genetic fixation in a species required 1,600 generations.
  • This 1,600-generations-per-fixation rate included parallel fixations.
  • The fastest observed spread of a genetic line in humans occurred at a rate that would require at least 8,170 generations per fixation.
  • Chinese scientists have asserted that genes in complex species such as humans change at a rate that is approximately one-fiftieth the rate of genetic change in simple species like bacteria. This implies at least 80,000 generations per genetic fixation.
  • The genetic difference between a modern Homo sapiens sapiens and a modern Pan troglodytes required around 30 million genetic fixations between the two species.
  • The estimated 9 million years since the Chimpanzee-Human Last Common Ancestor permits for somewhere between 282 and 55 genetic fixations per species. This is less than 0.000000006 percent of the observed genetic difference between modern chimpanzees and modern humans. It is also less than one percent of the observed genetic differences between two genetically divergent modern humans.

It should be absolutely obvious to any rational analyst that a mechanism which cannot even account for a small fraction of one percent of the observed differences between two things cannot possibly be the causal factor explaining those differences. Not in a million years, not in nine million years, not in nine billion years. No amount of argumentum ab magnis numeris is going to salvage even the smallest vestige of the neo-Darwinian synthesis, the theory of evolution by natural selection, or, for those who are still clinging by faith to the evolutionary epicycles being produced by the final generation of evolutionary biologists, the Theorum of Evolution by (probably) Natural Selection, Sexual Selection, Biased Mutation, Genetic Drift, and Gene Flow.

Not only is there not one single piece of evidence ever produced that supports the idea that evolution by natural selection is sufficient to explain the observed genetic differences between one species and another, there is not one single hypothetical argument or explanation in defense of evolution by natural selection that is capable of standing up to the combination of math, logic, and the available scientific evidence.

If you rejected religion on the basis of mechanistic materialism, you abandoned the faith of your fathers for an obvious untruth. Darwin was not only a false intellectual god, he was a false and retarded one.

Clown World Wants WWIII

And they’ve only got two months to start it. But they’re definitely going to try.

President Joe Biden has lifted that ban on Ukraine’s use of US-supplied long-range missiles meaning the war-torn country can now strike deep inside Russia, sources say. The decision is a major US policy shift and comes as Biden is about to leave office and President-elect Donald Trump has pledged to limit American support for Ukraine and end the war as soon as possible.

Ukraine plans to conduct its first long-range attacks in the coming days, according to sources. The first deep strikes are reportedly likely to be carried out using ATACMS rockets, which have a range of up to 190 miles.

Biden allowing Volodymyr Zelensky’s forces to use US-supplied missiles for strikes deep into Russia has raised expectations for the UK to follow suit with its Storm Shadow missiles.

Putin has been clear that Russia will strike back against any nation that helps Ukraine fire missiles against it. One hopes the Russian response will be reasonably proportional, because these are acts of war that would justify anything, up to and including strikes on every US base in Europe.

This is why it was so important for Donald Trump to win the election. Imagine if these lunatics had four more years to operate.

UPDATE: Clearly Team Trump recognizes the gambit being played.

US President-elect Donald Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., lashed out at the Democrats following reports that ongoing President Joe Biden had allowed Ukraine to use American-made long-range missiles to strike internationally recognized Russian territory.

Trump Jr., who campaigned alongside his father during the 2024 presidential election and has been helping him pick members of his future cabinet, did not mince words on social media.

“The Military Industrial Complex seems to want to make sure they get World War 3 going before my father has a chance to create peace and save lives,” he wrote on X on Sunday. “Gotta lock in those $Trillions. Life be damned!!! Imbeciles!”

Nukes are Not the Problem

The strategery at NATO is beyond merely stupid.

NATO forces would already be on the ground in Ukraine fighting Russian troops if it weren’t for Moscow’s arsenal of nuclear weapons, the outgoing chief of the US-led bloc’s Military Committee, Admiral Rob Bauer, has said.

Speaking on Sunday during a defense summit in the Czech Republic, Bauer recalled NATO’s past experience of taking part in conflicts in Afghanistan and in Iraq. He noted that fighting Russia in Ukraine would, however, be “not the same” as fighting in Afghanistan because the Taliban militants did not possess nuclear weapons.

“I am absolutely sure if the Russians did not have nuclear weapons, we would have been in Ukraine, kicking them out,” the admiral suggested.

The admiral appears to have forgotten that NATO lost the war in Afghanistan and fled “the graveyard of empires” with alacrity. With or without nukes, NATO is going to lose any war or proxy war with Russia. At this point, US admirals would be wiser to forget both Russia and China focus their attention on how to avoid losing the naval war with the Yemenis as well as the coming conflict with the Mexican cartels.

Just Go Away, Little Nicky

Pathetic. There is no “we” in this regard. The little gay famewhore openly denounced Donald Trump and endorsed Kamala Harris when he thought she was going to win. Now he’s demonstrating what a shameless little opportunist he is.

No one is going to be fooled by this shameless revisionism. First of all, there is no “we”. Nick Fuentes has never been on anyone’s side but his own. Second, it’s not the public commentators, but the behind-the-scenes men who won the recent presidential election; they prevented Harris from benefiting from the late deliveries of millions of fake votes that led to the fake Presidency of the Six Bidens.

  • 2024: Harris: 68,340,558, Trump 72,978,296 (updated)
  • 2020: Biden: 81,268,924, Trump: 74,216,154
  • 2016: Clinton: 62,985,106 Trump: 65,853,625

Trump should end up with at least 312 electoral college votes, more than the 306 he won in 2016 and the 303 that the Six Bidens supposedly “won” in 2020. UPDATED: This also turned out to be correct.

Now, do you notice the obvious outlier in the popular votes? How does Harris, as an effective incumbent, get 13 million fewer votes than Biden, especially when Trump will end up with around the same number of votes as he did in 2020, and eight million more than he did in winning the 2016 election? What are we supposed to believe, that 20 million US voters died of the not-vaxx? Hindsight has proven what what we skeptics pointed out at the time was correct: the 2020 election was obviously fraudulent.

Nick Fuentes is similar to Richard Armitage from the Tea Party days. He’s the same sort of repulsive self-promoter who can’t see a parade passing by without leaping to the front of it and pretending to lead it. One hopes that the young men who were foolish enough to follow Fuentes in the past will see through his ridiculous act. It’s time for Fuentes to go and dance away his real life in a Miami disco; time is up on this particular acting gig. He should leave the political commentary to the professionals who are, at the very least, capable of correctly predicting the obvious.

Never in the history of politics has someone talked such a huge fucking game and been so brutally exposed as ignorant, impotent, and irrelevant.
– Milo

There is nothing wrong with having been disappointed by President Trump’s past failings, whether it be his horrific personnel decisions, his insane Israel First statements, his endorsement of the vaxx, his pro-immigrant rhetoric, or his failure to cross the Rubicon in 2020. My past enthusiasm for him was significantly reduced for him as a result of those obvious and undeniable failures. Even so, Donald Trump was still the best US President since Andrew Jackson and he did keep the USA out of war, two very important achievements that I have never forgotten nor failed to point out even when I am criticizing him.

But there is neither room nor respect in any community for a treacherous, self-serving turncoat of the sort that Little Nicky has now demonstrated himself to be.

And speaking of people who can just go away now, we also say a well-deserved sayonara to Allan Lichtman and his always-overrated Thirteen Keys to the White House, which have now proven to be no more predictive than the wishful-thinking of the media’s polls.

Regardless, we can certainly hope that Donald Trump will show himself to be the decisive and uncompromising leader that the more shrill and terrified Blue Staters fear him to be. Making America Great Again requires far more than the art of the deal, it needs the full manifestation of the God-Emperor exercising the full potential of his powers. Few men are blessed with second chances; let us pray that President Trump wastes no time in making the most of his.

They Kill Pets

If they’ll murder a harmless squirrel for no reason, do you really think they won’t kill you and your family if given even half the chance?

P’nut the Squirrel, of internet fame, has been euthanized after the pet was seized by New York state earlier this week, according to the Department of Environmental Conservation. The seven-year-old gray rescue squirrel, commonly referred to as “P’Nut” on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, was put to death, along with Fred the raccoon, so that the animals could be tested for the presence of rabies, according to a statement from the agency obtained by WETM.

The DEC claims that P’nut, who was notably docile and friendly over the course of his very public facing life, bit one of the investigators on the hand while being confiscated from his Elmira home on Wednesday.

“In addition, a person involved with the investigation was bitten by the squirrel. To test for rabies, both animals were euthanized. The animals are being tested for rabies and anyone who has been in contact with these animals is strongly encouraged to consult their physician,” the DEC statement read, according to WETM.

P’nut was rescued by guardian Mark Longo, after the Connecticut native witnessed P’Nut’s mother hit by a car.

It was a pair of Karens who were responsible for murdering P’nut and Fred. One is the woman from Texas, Monica Keasler, who repeatedly called in the complaint to the New York police because she saw a video of a squirrel on the Internet. I’m not sure if this is a more damning indictment of women or of the Internet, but either way, it’s a demonstration of how the combination of the two is absolutely horrific for civilized society.

How on Earth can you possibly imagine that what is happening in New York is any business of yours whatsoever? Home Owners Associations are bad enough, but expanding the concept of curtain-twitching to the globe really strikes one as a tremendously bad, to say nothing of Orwellian-on-steroids, concept.

And, of course, the just-following-procedure police officer, a literal Karen named Karen Pryzklek, ordered a raccoon put down due to an obviously unfounded suspicion that a squirrel defending itself might, in theory, have rabies, would just as readily follow an order from her superiors to napalm an entire neighborhood.

He’s with Harambe now.
