Ian Welsh: We are winning so hard oh my glorious Putin!
Anyone who is not a doofus assclown: That is definitely not winning.
Remi
Yep. Native populations get lass rape-y while immigrants are mega-rape-y.
Remigration now.
Nothing But Evil
Mostly agreed. Redefining every relationship as always and only about power dynamics (and all bad sexual experiences as rape) was a huge error. An evil one.
It allowed actual rape to be minimized, harmed male-female dynamics for generations, and allowed “feminists” to minimize the harm of actual rape gangs in the UK and other places. It was idiotic in every aspect and — like many things — should have stayed in obscure academic journals read by four people where it belonged.
Hamas Amb
And they dig tunnels for weapons caches and terrorist concealment beneath hospitals as well.
Not So Cheerful
How in the world does Cheers have 11 seasons and 275 episodes? That’s insane.
I have no interest in even one episode.
Solar Pan
Even in dismal months like this one where there is not that much sun compared to summer, due to our solar panels we only spend about $3 a day on electricity as long as the weather is mild.
And that’s pretty awesome.
No Reason Not To
This sounds insane, but I’ve read many of the actual reports and that is all true.
Execute all of them. Every single one. The Muslims, the police, the politicians. All. No mercy.
It’ll Do It
Mostly true. Suicidal empathy will do that to you.

Go Full Iran
I think everyone who participated in the migrant grooming gangs should be executed and so should every journalist, politician and activist who shielded and protected those in the gangs.
Go full Iran, or Stalin’s USSR. Two in the head and charge the family for the bullets. That’d still be more merciful than what all those girls went through.
Edit First
I mean, there can be a first edition of a particular translation or typesetting.
This is a good example of people wanting to look smart rather than actually be smart. That is, they do not understand the publishing world or typical publisher terminology. “First edition” just means the first released version of a particular typesetting. Thus, a work like Homer’s Iliad can and does have many first editions, depending on translation, publisher, and which country it is released in1.
The first printing of the first editions are particularly valuable in the rare book world, often.
For example, here is a first edition, first printing of the Iliad, though it’s not worth all that much.
Smart people are quite dumb.
1995
This line from Molly Nilsson’s “1995” is probably the single best encapsulation of what it felt like to live then: “Back in ’95, we thought we were standing on the threshold to the end of time.”
Nailed it in one line. I wish I had Molly’s succinctness, but that is as close as one can get in words to the feeling of living in the era after the Berlin Wall fell and before the Oklahoma City Bombing, before 9/11, before the world turned.
Yes, we were wrong and in retrospect delusional that it was the end of history. That there was a brighter future in store. That we’d solve racism and hatred and blood feuds and war. But it sure as fuck felt like that. That optimism perfused everything. Those who claim it did not were too young to remember or are just lying. Most of them have some agenda, as well.
But I was there. I know what happened and what it was like.
Takeover Takeoff
Realizing that idiot leftists actually do loathe Western civilization and truly do want to destroy it so Third World hordes can take over was really disappointing. But, also, freeing. Then you know what direction to go.
