If you like Audiobooks, and you want to experience the real Odyssey instead of whatever Nolan botched up, I'm doing a video series on Youtube reading through it.

we are living among the remains of a civilization that knew how to make beautiful things, and much of our work now is simply to keep them from disappearing altogether and getting it into the hands of a child who might help bring some part of that world back.

Male language matters. If you want to understand why classic male prose is fundamentally Anglo-Saxon, look at the physical architecture of the English language. Anglo-Saxon is the language of action, boundary, and physical reality—the domain of male classical literature. 🧵1
You should be able to walk into any post office and get $5,000 in cash right then and there. The only condition is that you can never vote again.

We just dropped an all new T.REX ARMS project. 4,200 military manuals, stored as PDFs and EPUBs, all downloadable for free, readable and searchable on the site, with all references indexed and tracable.

It really is that simple
Ethnic hatred is wrong
Realizing the majority of people from a given country are incompatible with your way of life and restricting their access to your country is a basic necessity for survival
I refuse to judge people by the color of their skin.
But I also refuse to pretend that immigrants from certain nations don’t tend to vote a particular way and embrace cultural practices that make it unwise to continue to welcome massive numbers of them if we want to continue our way of life.
These two things are not inconsistent, and we need to stop listening to people who say they are.

Some dude in California running a 3-person company got voters to give him $4.2 billion by authoring a ballot measure, which passed

People can get mad at @BonifaceOption if they want, but his arc was commendable imo. He went hard against the war when it started, losing followers from “plan trusters” then.
And in the run up to the election, he went hard encouraging people to still vote for Republicans, getting called a “sell out” then.
But what I see in those two approaches was courage and consistency.
Lost followers for “trooning out” over Iran.
I still am not convinced it is in our interest. The China/geopol arguments have not persuaded me.
I don’t hate Trump or want people to vote for Democrats or anything like that. I am still very supportive of him and his domestic priorities.
I am free to disagree with the administration. I am not a third worldist. I don’t have any sympathy for the Iranian regime. I don’t think this is Bush Era neoconservatism, but I still don’t think it is good.
I don’t think I represent a fringe opinion, but maybe it doesn’t matter.
I just want what is best for my people. Maybe that is what Trump is pursuing and I am too simple to understand. But maybe this also isn’t 5D chess and is a colossal mistake.
I don’t know. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. Neither can I.

There’s a lot to be encouraged by here in Idaho. Across the country, we have work to do.
My response is to get more involved. Show up between elections. Build relationships and community. Earn trust.
I love this country, and I’m optimistic about its future. Let’s get to work.

Some of y’all would have folded when the Caliphate controlled the vast majority of Spain.
Or when Comanche raiders hit your settlement, slaughtered who they could find, and carried off the women and children.
Or when your Greek mercenary band found itself stranded deep in Persian territory, facing a newly hostile satrap, and most of your leaders had been treacherously executed.
Or when your Israelite nation faced an army of Philistines and a Nephilim.
Have you not read the Scriptures or the annals of Western history?
Don’t give up the ship.

The country survived FDR.
Get up and get to work.
My near term plan is to reach out to my county GOP and see what they need.
The fight is far from over.
