Anthropologist finds proof. From this finding that ancients and even men of the not-too-distant past were so much more robust than we are now, one could make an argument that industrialization, service sector jobs, the avoidance of violent conflict and the general feminization of our society are actually making us weaker and more vulnerable as [...]

Novaseeker just posted a really concise explanation of cultural Marxism, with an interesting twist about men that I’ll have to think about, to The Spearhead. For more, read Pat Buchanan’s Death of the West. “it’s impossible to understand what has really happened in the West since 1960 without understanding the underlying cultural Marxist basis.” The [...]

I was looking for a quote for a more finished piece I’m working on, and I came across this quote–which I had highlighted while reading the Táin. “…it’s a terrible pity I hand’t my strength,” said Cú Chulainn, “for had I been [...]

Knocked off early this afternoon and went for a late hike in the Columbia River Gorge with an old friend. Andy taught me the job I do now. A little over a year ago, he moved to the Florida Keys, and then to the Virgin Islands, where he eventually got a job teaching windsurfing. He’s [...]

Locklin made me a fan with his recent essay on “Stuff White People Like” over at TakiMag. He seems to be a secular conservative of some stripe, which is encouraging. He believes, as I do, that “Culture and morality are machines for transmitting basic survival truths across generations.” Here’s a clip of the essay. In [...]
