Recently, Olivia Dunne has made headlines after her fans got stalky and rabid. Now, the online discourse has surrounded the stupid debate between “boys will be boys” and she is selling her body online and she is a vulnerable woman and this shows how scary men can be. No girl, obviously, deserves to be rapedContinue reading “OnlyFans, Olivia Dunne, and the Dystopia of Contemporary Hottness”

Vendetta and Nothing Else
Before on this blog, I have discussed how when I have discussed my history being bullied the general response of people is that I should have resorted to physical violence, either directly or through a proxy, or contacted the police. It is quite curious that they never mention anything about fixing the cultural and psychologicalContinue reading “Vendetta and Nothing Else”
On the Hussey Lawsuit
In the headlines, right now, Olivia Hussey and Leonard Whitting, are filing a lawsuit over the nude scene in the 1968 adaptation of Romeo & Juliet. I have, on this blog, used frames from that adaptation and it is my favorite version. Also, in my derrivite fiction, when I employ the famous couple as characters,Continue reading “On the Hussey Lawsuit”
The Perennial and the Pundits of Christianity
What does Jesus think about abortion? The answer is like what most religion and secular ideology is, whatever you already believe, your tradition is on your side. To escape this, there must be a philosohical framework with which to answer. My answer is Jesus is not a pundit and Christianity is not a platform ofContinue reading “The Perennial and the Pundits of Christianity”
Capitalism & Suicide: The Modern Examples of Weber and Durkheim
For parents, especially contemporary culturally suburban ones since the 1990s, the aim has been to have successy children who excel. I never had this ambition and always saw it as wrong. A good woman is not a CEO because a good person is not a CEO but an underground activist resisting the CEO. I sayContinue reading “Capitalism & Suicide: The Modern Examples of Weber and Durkheim”
The Psychology of Reactionary Politics
Reactionary politics is considered by many to be a synonym with conservatism but it is not. I define it as the politcs of unthinking reaction. I recently wrote an article about the anti-catcalling laws. How, among other things, the same movement against mass incarceration and arresting people for minor crimes are also for doing exactlyContinue reading “The Psychology of Reactionary Politics”
An Aesthetic Critique of Christian Nationalism
Firstly, style is dead in the West. We have lost the romantic prettiness of the vintage era, the hot chic of the mid-20th century, and more. Neither the tiara of a Victorian heiress nor the glamour of a golden age movie star does our era possess. It is not merely that the Kardashians are vain,Continue reading “An Aesthetic Critique of Christian Nationalism”
Is Pluto a Planet?: Psychological and Political Definitions
I fully support the IAU definition of planet. What I disagreed with in their 2006 decision was to not make Pluto an honorary planet since, given public sentiments, I feel unjustifiable suffering was induced. The scientists would know the difference regardless so the only group it affected was the public whose happiness was reduced andContinue reading “Is Pluto a Planet?: Psychological and Political Definitions”
The Path to a Social Japan and the Birth of a New Paradigm
As touched on in the article I wrote about the anti-catcalling laws, the over-punishing of minor anti-social behavior is not the result of progressive politics even if it manifests itself in it. It is the bourgeois, suburban, fears of the uncanny and the marginalized. I referenced an The Atlantic article by Conor Friedersdorf where heContinue reading “The Path to a Social Japan and the Birth of a New Paradigm”
Why Loving the Baddies?
I am not the only one to be critical of our culture’s love of pirates. Even as a child, I was against playing them because even as a prepubescent the idea that I would have fun pretending to murder people and steal stuff was contrary to my morals. When I played pretend, I was moreContinue reading “Why Loving the Baddies?”
