“It shall be unlawful for any teacher in any of the Universities, Normals and all other public schools of the State which are supported in whole or in part by the public school funds of the State, to teach any theory that denies the story of the Divine Creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead that man has descended from a lower order of animals.” This is the wording of the Tennessee Butler Act of 1925. Despite...
Remember Larry the Cucumber's joke? "The future's been white since the Seventies." Doctor Who is leaning into that big time with the new Tardis. Honestly, as someone who was a fan of the OG series,, I don't hate it. There. See? I can like stuff. It happens.
This book is a handy all-in-one reference guide for anyone who wants to have an actual discussion with someone who is on the fence about armed self-defense. It’s also useful for bashing idiots who don’t have the slightest idea what they’re talking about. You aren’t going to convince them because you will never convince the mentally ill using facts and logic. You aren’t going to convince them with rhetoric either although that is the only thing they will ever use to “convince” anyone...
With Nike CEO Parker as Disney’s Chairman of the Board and Iger as CEO again, the Middle Kingdom has apparently had a change of heart about Marvel movies. Starting next month Wakanda Forever will be coming to Chinese theaters. Where they will decidedly underperform. The Han just aren’t interested in an American 1970s vision for a fantasy Africa. They have their own vision for Africa. And we get called colonizers. Anyway, Antman 3 also has a release date. Now this film is more likely to...
When I first saw it, I tried to remember when I had first seen it and I couldn’t. Because I hadn’t. Ion Fury is two things that should NOT exist this deep into the 21st century. A new game built on the 1990s era Build engine and a good old fashioned Doom clone. For those who would like a gentle reminder, the first wave of Doom clones were the actual authentic Doom clones, which is to say they were built on the Doom engine licensed...
Newly re-enthroned CEO Bob Iger visited Disney World last week. This really doesn’t happen too often. Disney is headquartered in Burbank, which means it’s not only a cross country flight but it’s trip deep into the heart of redness. As I have stated before, while Disney Burbank executives discuss what Rachel Madow had to say last night around the water cooler, WDW chieftains chat about Tucker Carlson over beer. These two parts of Disney h-a-t-e each other. None the less, Iger felt compelled to put on his...
Yeah, it sure was. Comixology was always a bad idea. Although, it was an understandable one. It started life in 2007 as a fansite, it had articles on shared interests, upcoming issues, cover art and artists, in short it was fulfilling the functions that old Wizard Magazine used to provide. It also had tools for brick and mortar comics shops. Finally it launched an online comic book reader. In 2013 Amazon tried to get into comic books by publishing their own line called...

That isn't a line, it's a flash mob. Disney is being both craven and stupid at the same time. Stunning, I know. Yes, Splash Mountain needed a refurb. The animatronics were originally built for the old bicentennial show, America Sings and they are completely worn out. But the decision to replace Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox with Tianna and company is a retarded one. Generation X is the last generation with any kind of memory of Song of the South and for...
FIRST Why I’m Not Reviewing The Last of Us TV Show I could end this sub-post with one sentence. “Because I know what happens to Joel.” Honestly, there is more than one reason. I’m not really into zombie TV shows. The movies are okay, but zombie TV shows lean heavily into hopelessness, despair, and nihilism. It’s all doom and gloom for the span of the entire series and nothing is well thought out. Everybody is getting around in cars years after the event even though gasoline has...
