Phil Eiger Newmann, One Way Ticket, 2021. 1,514 words It should be obvious to any sober observer that the main problem with black people is black people.

But the arbitrariness with which the same thought-figure can […]
Rush Limbaugh receives the Presidential Medal of Freedom, 2020. 1,694 words Rush Limbaugh passed away from lung cancer Wednesday at the age of 70.

Phil Eiger Newmann, The Nu Sheriff, 2021. 1,444 words As a bookish kid holed up in my bedroom, I used to pore over the family copy of the World Book Atlas of the World and found my interest especially piqued by desolate and depopulated areas.

3,076 words Aleksandr SolzhenitsynTwo Hundred Years TogetherMoscow: Vagrius, 2005 No sane person wants to lie. Aside from whatever harm lying might cause, lying also chips away at a person’s dignity. Knowing that your words will quickly mold to a model other than Truth somehow cheapens you — as if any model will do. Expediency, authority, […]
1,123 words Every movement needs a movie. Liberals have To Kill a Mockingbird, conservatives have Patton, but what about Trump and the deplorables? The movement has anger and followers, but no film — here’s one.

S. Eliot, April […]

5,963 words 1. Introduction For Heidegger, the history of Western metaphysics is characterized by understanding Being narrowly in terms of what satisfies human needs and desires – especially the desire for knowledge, prediction, and control. This “subjective turn” is usually associated with the modern period, but Heidegger locates its inception much earlier, with Plato and […]

Errol Flynn plays […]

It wasn’t bad enough that this 40-year-old black mother of five was named “Tessica” or that, like 99.9% of black women, she’d obviously spent far more of her life obsessing over her hair, nails, and eyelashes than she had, oh, reading […]
