Possible song (adapted) for the Patriot side in the coming civil war? Plus my loose prediction about how it will pan out.

Image
Prediction first: I remain convinced that the coming civil war in America will be more geographical than some supposed thinkers think. Three levels: Red state vs Blue state with a number of Red states initially attempting to stay neutral. Split states — those which go one way nationally, but oddly have the other side governing at state level — will probably go the way of the state government. Red states will have Blue pockets, mostly urban, which will be isolated. Key locations, such as memorials and industrial facilities, will be seized by the state. Blue states will struggle with Red rural areas – upstate New York and downstate Illinois being prime examples — leading to county successions some degree and formality or another to bordering Red states. This will greatly redraw the map of the war. Small enclaves opposed to the side dominating their area. More than citadels or Mount Carmels, but often less than counties. Yet with a certain geographical definition.  Private vigilante a...

THE DAILY FUDD: E283: “Be precise — Terminology, precision, and liberal trickery.”

Image
Colion Noir exposes the standard liberal tactic of pulling terms out of context. In any long and serious discussion, terms of convention Are virtually essential to forwarding the discussion. If every statement has to be explained every single time, it will obviously become laborious and unwieldy. Liberals attempted to silence, discussions by twisting terms, ignoring context, and trying to force the good guys into simply giving up our of exhaustion. Part of the answer, and I don’t know how much he did this in the first video, is to lay out the definition and context of terms extremely precisely from the beginning. This can be done in bullet point form, but often times simply with brief clauses: “The modern AR15 available on the civilian market…” “The AR15, referring to the rifle currently available in the civilian market,…” “‘AR15’ in the modern setting refers to the civilian analog of the M-16/M4 military rifles.” I actually knew the original full-auto version was called “AR15.” And in...

President Trump and Olympic hockey — women having breakdown over a joke.

Image
President Trump made the comment to say that the women’s team would be included. He was jocular about it, just as he was jocular when referencing the performance of our goalie (I won’t even try to spell his name from memory). The depth of this breakdown is bizarre. Men’s hockey is a unique sport in the context of the Olympics for Americans. We’ll have champion, skiers or skaters, or even bobsled teams. But in hockey – men’s hockey – that is not so much the case. We have tended to be deficient. The 1980 Miracle stands out because of this, and because of the political situation at the time. This 2026 victory stands out because of the 46 years, because of the traditional American deficiency in this area, and frankly because of certain tensions, we see even among our allies. Hence, for the President to treat this men’s team victory with a little more relish than the women’s team has a certain social and political logic. A lot of people might not even realize there is women’s hockey in the ...

Off Topic: I stand convinced that the Swiss Miss in Moonraker did NOT have braces.

Image
I was the one who was sure Dolly had braces. I first saw the movie on American television at about age 10 or so. My mother was watching it with me, and I could distinctly remember her making reference to braces there. So when this Mandela thing arose, I was thinking she had made a comment about the little Swiss miss having races. Thinking back, she probably was saying that it would’ve been sweet or funny or something if she had indeed had braces. My mother would notice things like that in movies and whatnot. So I am convinced it is simply people seeing a missed opportunity and reimagining the scene with braces, a vision subsequently reinforced by a number of social factors. This examination of the issue makes many good points supporting this conclusion. Including the fact that everybody would be distracted by her boobs.

THE DAILY FUDD: E283: “VIDEO: ‘Space Cowboy Lever Action” — actually might fit the bill.

Image
Actually, this would make some of a good weapon for amateur traveling between civilizations, be it interplanetary or interdimensional. It carries the space age look while having the reliability of manual action and the firepower of a lever action. And of course, it is pistol caliber to match his reliable manual action revolver. Such a traveler would actually have little use for “assault” firepower. He is not going to win a fire fight against larger numbers With modern weapons. But he might find use for a “boomstick” in some precise situations.

1890s airship mystery probably solved.

Image
While a couple of places may be leaps here, it does mesh with my long-standing theory that the humans experimenting with airships stopped suddenly because of the Aurora, Texas crash. 1. 2. 

CGNS fun with AI — cats, guns, and “knights” of various eras.

Image
By Meta AI through Facebook Messenger. Armor, guns, and cats, with Warhammer 40K-inspiration (in progress). ( These next two below are not my work, but were sent to me for a slightly different project.)   Then it finally occurred to me that there was no way I would ever get a cat to wear a gas mask! —— A few intermediate steps I found interesting. And one stolen, the only change being the sword changed to a rifle barrel. One added, improved version of one above: Better background. Removed loose-hanging hose. It is a flaw in the original W40K design. The smart way would be to have the hose more closely clamped to the body. It would still permit free movement of the head.  I like this backpack design, even with the exposed tube or two. Needs a better image of the soldier. O D Dedese   UL: Uses original bag, but hangs low. UR: Hangs higher, but cat has no forward view. LL: Forward view and cargo carriage, but large and dome looks odd. LR: Forward view and cargo carriage, but...
