I am sure everyone here is well aware of the bruhaha that the last SecNav caused by embracing the women in the infantry concept. You are all also probably aware that the Marine Corps resisted strongly. Their data, which they collected over about 18 months, was obviously dismissed as sexist. Yet it showed rather well that women do NOT mix into infantry units well, that such units’ performance is degraded, and that women in infantry units suffer WAY more injuries and more serious issues than men.

This is not surprising. Women, at least to the thinking population, are different than men; the crazies don’t seem to recognize this. Women are simply built physically differently. They have less skeletal muscle, less upper body strength, less weight bearing ability. They … Continue reading →

Where is everyone?

There are many fine arguments for and against a guest worker program, but the whole thing should be a non-starter. Not only is it unconstitutional, it is clearly at odds with every legislative advance made in the rights of Man since… Magna Carta?

It’s bad enough on its face, but consider the implications for the future. Those like me —  who see the dark hand of communism not behind every mishap, but certainly hovering somewhere nearby, ready to capitalize (if you will) on America’s every mistake — will feel a particular threat from a guest worker program.  As Marxism is fueled by dissatisfaction and steered by class struggle, we could hardly invite revolutionary agitation any more efficiently than by creating a dissatisfied underclass in this land of plenty.  … Continue reading →

Reservation Trash

From time to time I hear a song and I think, “Now *that* is the sound of love.”  Don’t get me wrong — I have serious epistemological issues with the whole damned thing, but there is a sound that seems to fit the bill.

Now I am not talking about the sound of (ahem) making love (see Aerosmith, Back in the Saddle, ahem ahem, if you get my drift), or music which puts one in the mood for love (paging Dr. Barry White).  Just the sound of the emotion itself.

The first song that seemed to capture that sound for me was Sara by Fleetwood Mac.  There’s a story behind the song, layered and poignant, which sort of fits and not fits.  But the sound is wun hunnert … Continue reading →

Per agreement between BDB and his fellow expat. who put the darning in Village of the Darned, the BDB AMU is being consolidated with the Ratburger AMU. See the BDB chat tab above for the new call-in number.

It is 17 years since 9/11. During this time we have shown no ability to make our country safe nor bring us, the people, peace. Instead the government churns more and more BS, adds more and more layers of suppression, and generally acts like an occupier.

Trump’s heart seems in the right place. He actually seems to be pursuing national interests. One sign is that Lindsey Graham is disappointed in his “Syria response”. I expect nothing short of planting the 1st Marine Division in Aleppo would do for Graham. If he thinks it was too little, it implies to rational thinking that perhaps it was just right.

But elsewhere the Left is untouched. Trump is shackled with BS investigations but nothing seems to stop the Left. ?Why … Continue reading →

How to join the Resistance:

• Assume that there is a Resistance.
• Do whatever you can to help the Resistance.
• Lead your own portion of the Resistance.

Take that, you Vichy bastards.

I have around 8K users on this site. Most of them are nonsense, but I do have several who actually exist. I want to bulk delete a bunch, so I am going in search of a tool which is better than the default ability in WP.

[Gave up on that.]

Here’s where I knew I had a problem. I have become kind of a numbers nut, seeing a power law distribution everywhere. If you can group things, you can get them to show you a power law. Well, typically. In the past I have gone into the WP user management area, searched for users from a given domain, and gone from there. For example, anybody with an email address ending in @mail.ru is gone for sure. Except on … Continue reading →
