I see what you did there.

no, which is why I want it. Give me The Iron Dream but by a pill addicted charlatan who can't even have a position in a debate on Jubilee.

Is this a beautiful dream?

Can you imagine Jordan Peterson trying to write hardboiled noir?

Be weird, be lame!

Something else would have, with a personality like that.

Now I’m picturing Jordy P as Philip Marlowe.

… you know how every noir detective movie has at least one scene where the villain’s goons rough up the detective?

In Peterson’s case, I‘m pretty sure that would be every second scene.

Imagine challenging Jordan Peterson to write pulpy Chandler-esque noir.

Like Ben Shapiro transparently compensating for his height insecurity by emphasizing BRENT HAWTHORN is a “bear of a man.”

I can only imagine Shad’s book is like the True Allegiance of fantasy novels, every bit as dumb and revealing in ways the author clearly never intended.

Cody Johnston once said, on an episode of Behind the Bastards, all right-wing pundits should write fiction: nothing clarifies the worldview and terminal online brainrot as an incompetent stab at dramatizing that same worldview.

But especially in the 30s!

Christian education was more universal for Americans back then, even in the 80s.

Kaiju (but make it haiku)

Born too big, too strong
This is our tragic story
Screams in rage and pain

At least Doug Walker sucks organically!

Right?

God, what a wonderful slowburn.

I love it so much I’m actually afraid of touching its sequel. The fear of disappointment is that high.

Same guy!

… [sad sigh]

“Philby, you’re wistfully reminiscing over Mary Doria Russell’s The Sparrow again, aren’t you?”

… maybe, yeah.

God.

I love that book.

They think they left American Protestant Christianity behind, but all they did was replace God with money and solipsism.

But I do find there’s a disdain, stemming from would-be rationalists, for sciences and approaches that account for subjectivity.

A fantastical example, but I think you get my point.

You see this all the time from the emotionally stunted types, thumbing their noses at “the soft sciences.”

Which-

Not for nothing?

If alien life forms came down tomorrow, you’d need a sociologist, an anthropologist, a linguist, and what have you on your crackshot first contact team.

In a similar vein…

I can’t help but observe there’s, from the same sort of folk, an activr hostility to any sort of interdisciplinary integration.

That is to say, multi-pronged approaches to any issue, any problem, requiring expertise from a wide array of fields and perspectives.

What if you’re a copyright lawyer?

This dude saw DBZ and thought, “I can’t help do that!”

Ron Howard Narrator:

“He could not.”

A guy played by one of the Russos, no less.

Can’t believe anyone would break up a friendship over a pretty innocuous observation.

He‘s been fuming mad ever since.

Man is resentful of athletic sword nerds and his own younger brother.

I can’t believe his wife looked at this man and thought, “A pathetic man-baby with fascist fantasies? I need to put a ring on it.”
