Connecticut has been transitioning away from its old nickname, the Constitution State, for years. The more apt and current ‘Nutmeg’ state is better suited. They are nuts for letting Meg (formerly known as Mark) Compete and win in girls’ sports.
Culture War
Should The “B” in LGBT Stand for Bigot?
Word games are the way of things in politics, and the culture war has weaponized every word. But sometimes, you have to take a step back and say, wait a minute. That’s not right.
Left Wing Tyranny – The Some Words Are More Equal Than Others Edition
Our “friends” on the left have released a fresh round of artillery in the culture war. “The Rochester, Minnesota, school board has declared “Black Lives Matter” to be “government speech” to prohibit debate and prevent anyone from expressing a contrary opinion.
The Oscars – If Somebody Watched It, It Wasn’t Me!
Disclaimer: I don’t like 98% of most movies. I hate sitting through them without the possibility of multitasking. And most of Hollywood’s offerings aren’t worth the spit in my mouth. Furthermore, if I want to get preached at, I go to church. So, now this.
The KKK’s Ideological Ancestors Convince Black American’s to Self-Segregate
Do you ever feel like you are the only one who sees it? The party of the Klan (Democrats) is convincing people of color to self-segregate. That can’t be a coincidence.
1492
The left is trying to cram the 1619 Project into the public subconscious as the beginning of your history. In response, the Right proposed the 1776 project—a presentation of the greatness that sprung from America’s founding.
So Julia Hartz of Eventbrite Just Sent Me an Email About “Togetherness.” Sure, Right Back Atcha!
Julia Hartz is the co-founder and CEO of Eventbrite, a company that provides event processing for folks that have, well, events. In fact, I could have used them for our GrokMeetup event this past Sunday and the next three upcoming GrokMeetups. But I didn’t. And won’t, either.
Another Monday Midday Meme Storm
While COVID19 and vaccine memes seem to be more popular than ever, I’ve taken this opportunity to include something besides COVID-related content for this week’s Monday Midday Meme Storm.
The Perfect Example of Someone Who Needs to Learn “Don’t Be Like There When You Come Here!”
Alert Reader (and frequent Commenter and Op-Ed writer) Nitzkahon spotted this gem from Gracie Gato’s languishing Granite State Buzz (a site that just kinda sits there, month after month) that just PROVED the point of this:
Promoted from the Comments: Don’t Be like There When You Come Here!
Prolific commenter NHNative had posted the above on Steve’s “NH Dem – Religious Liberty is Extremist!” post and wondered if GraniteGrok could make some up as fundraisers. It is something that a lot of NH Natives (and long-term non-natives like me as well) keep saying.
Quick Thought – What Are the Odds I’ll Run into a Pissed Off Morgan Freeman?
Morgan Freeman, the talented actor, is laying down a challenge that if you think about it, is worth nothing at all. Zippo, nada, niet, nope, no. Just no.
The Truth Hurts and Spoils the Critical Race Theory Narrative
The problem isn’t the number of guns in the US (estimated now at around 400 million) but the culture of those that have them. Culture counts and a culture that doesn’t value life has chart results like this. If you need any more proof, look at the stats in Chicago after almost every weekend.
Liberal Privilege: Women Don’t Need Guns They Should Call the Police (We Defunded)
Democrats hate women. Sure, we could bark about the transwomen-sports movement or the parallel sanctioned invasion of penises into their bathrooms and locker rooms (or how about abortion), but there’s always this. Liberal men telling women they don’t need guns and should call the police. Didn’t you try to defund the police?
The Occupation of America
Friends and colleagues have asked me why I have stopped writing articles related to Islam and its perpetual threat to the United States of America. My answer is simple. America has a much bigger problem than Islam.
Friday Visual Lunch – How Much We Don’t Care About Harry and Meghan’s “Problems” in Pictures
The entertain-me world combined its twin obsessions of voyeurism and victimhood last week. Oprah sat down with Harry Windsor and Meghan Markle. Identity politics got a bit of air without anyone bothering too much about the identities of the players.
On Looney Tunes, Leftists, and Rape Culture Hypocrisy
Pepe Le Pew was singled out this past week for Promoting Rape Culture ‘cuz reasons. The theory goes something like this. A cartoon skunk with a French accent trying to woo a cat with a white paint stripe on its back teaches kids to sexually assault women. So, that’s why Joe Biden is like that?
Does Pepe Le Pew Promote Rape Culture (And Will That Be Andrew Cuomo’s Defense)?
In the wake of Cuomo accusers four and five, we should stop and take a moment to consider what really matters. It’s Pepe Le Pew’s fault. Yes, the French Looney Toons skunk and his unstoppable passion for the ladies promote rape culture.
Speak Truth Firmly to Evil
America has been the anchor of western civilization for the last century. Today we no longer articulate our values and principles. We listen constantly to leftist crap. This is the reason we have drifted so far off our moorings. It is time to stand for something.
I’m Not the Only One Thinking “Lined up on the Runway Ready to Go”
This echoes what I’ve been saying. That the GOP and NH GOP should have Bills prepped and prechecked WELL before a legislative session, on the taxiway, and ready to launch down the runway.
