The Morning Rant

talking ape.jpg
"Ohio passed a bill outlawing abortion after detection of the fetal heartbeat. But not before an amendment was proposed by lawmaker Janine Boyd to exempt African American women from the new regulations. So, is Ms. Boyd some sort of retrograde racist/KKK type who managed to sneak onto the Ohio legislature and is now fighting to implement a covert white supremacist agenda? You might well think so, but as a matter of fact, Ms. Boyd is a progressive Democrat and an African American. So why would a black woman want fewer black babies just like the evil white supremacists presumably do? Why are their interests so closely aligned? I think it's because at its core, progressivism is a philosophy of death. Despite all of its high-minded rhetoric about human rights, equality, fairness, grrl power, and liberation from oppression (all of which, by the way, it pretty much stole from the Christian church), progressivism is really nothing more than a demonic suicidal death cult. That's all it ever is, and ever can be. And when there's nothing else left to murder, it will turn on itself. All progressives ever actually produce is death: dead cultures, dead countries, dead economies, dead higher education, dead races, dead children, dead babies, and a dead future. The ultimate purpose of progressivism is that we might have death, and that we might have it more abundantly."

Monday's celebs: Dolly Parton and Satchmo. The dead musicians are:

1st Row: Michael Jackson, Kurt Cobain, Freddy Mercury, Bob Marley
2nd Row: Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Amy Winehouse, (see below)
3rd Row: Whitney Houston, Elvis, Beethoven, Jim Morrison
4th Row: Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, John Lennon, Tupac Shakur

The guy on the far right of the second row was the one most of you morons (myself included) had a hard time identifying. After some spirited discussion, the mystery man was identified as Metallica bassist Cliff Burton. Confirmed by 'stumck' who found the picture used in the collage.

Also h/t to Lady in Black for linking to this fantastic video of Roy Clark displaying his absolute mastery of the guitar:

OK, but that hat looks so big and heavy and her head is tilted back so far, I would think the weight of the hat would tear the pins right out of her hair.

22 RE: the hat, a few ideas. First, there are a lot of bobby pins holding it in place. Next, the actual flat part of the hat might be extremely lightweight. There looks to be some ostrich feathers in the back, and if they're low enough, they probably help balance things out and make it stay in place.

Hat and hair style say late 19th - early 20th century. Deep décolletage says probably not a society belle.

Camille Clifford. Most famous for winning a contest sponsored by "Gibson Girl" artist Charles Dana Gibson to find the living incarnation of his woman. I don't particularly see it myself (the pug nose doesn't do it for me), but that's her.

And let's go back to Evelyn Nesbit. Here is when she posed for Gibson's drawing, "The Eternal Question:"

But, to look at the image on a glass with a loupe, upside down, and adjust the perspective and depth of field is a PIA. Note how his face is in perfect focus, but move a little further back? Not to mention awesome lighting from the stone age. Photographer had skillz.

IMO, acting is not something that really requires a lot of skill and training. Perhaps some people benefit marginally, but most of the time, you're either born with the ability or you aren't.

Prayers up for all on The Prayer List. Life is rough even at its best.
I'd also like to add the guy who was in front of me at the pharmacy last week who was telling the sweet little tech behind the counter about his 6-year-old daughter's struggles with seizures that the doctors seem to be unable to get a handle on as of now. Never seen him before, but the pain in his voice was moving. He didn't break down or anything (or even get close), but you could tell he was hurting for his little girl. I said I'd pray for her and him and maybe the Horde will too.

Prayers up for all who need them.

If DI has a flaw, for me it's Stanwyck's casting. Don't get me wrong; she's absolutely convincing in the role of co-murderer. But I just can't see why MacMurray's Walter Neff would be so enamored of her. She seems . . . hard. Of course he might like that type. But there isn't the heated chemistry between them that you'd expect.

149 "at its core, progressivism is a philosophy of death."

probably correct. but presented as angels of light.


The origin of "evil" was (as the story goes, figurative or not) when Lucifer decided to rise up to be like God. God gives free will, but remaining thankful to and focused on a "higher power" is necessary. It is The Secret to a Radiant Life. (some pamphlet/book I recall from decades ago, opposed to focus on self or others)


For those that have no hope, they get their thrills by taking hope away from more joyous people, like the Grinch that stole Christmas. But many are so far gone, they can't come back, so as they are found out, they will burn "the village" to try to escape.

I'd guess she thinks that children would hold back black women from career advancement. But this is stupid. The current system would give their kids 3 squares a day in school and babysit them, all for free. The mother can be free to get drunk, play lotto, watch soaps, etc. without being inconvenienced in the slightest by her child, barely having to be aware that it is there. Heck, there are even convicted felons serving time with large numbers of children.

Very different ending from (and IMO superior to) the book. It's clear that Keyes, Edward G. Robinson's older insurance man, thought of Neff as a son, though the word is never spoken. At the end Neff says to Keyes something like, "I was right under your nose all the time. Too close."

Keyes: "Closer than that." (The "son" reference, methinks)

Neff: "I love you too." (Sarcastic -- no ghey references here)

And Neff can't light his match, so Keyes lights his cigarette for him as we hear the police sirens in the distance. Fadeout.

213 At its core, the progressive movement has a belief that there are too many humans on this planet. They can't come out and say it, but they envision an enlightened future, where humans are in harmony with the natural world, by having fewer of them (not us) around, mucking things up.


In other words, progress = fewer humans, not better humanity.

Europe and the US would be at Zero Population growth EXCEPT for importing excess population from third world places where the population is still expanding.

Stop that migration, and those places would be FORCED to cut back on children due to limited resources.

One more thing, evidence is fairly conclusive, famine and third world shithole status do NOT encourage cutting back on human population growth, but have the opposite effect.


Prosperity and freedom are indeed, negatively correlated with population growth, so I guess if you import all the third worlders to the West, and could KEEP Western prosperity intact (which you almost certainly can't), then logic would indicate there will be fewer of them procreating, over time.

321 The small waist is an illusion. It was common, prior to the Gibson Girl period, for women to pad their hips. And the dresses had full sleeves. Even though they didn't pad their hips any more, the dresses were cut to be smooth in the front, with gathers in the back. If top and bottom look larger, the waist looks smaller as a result.

350 Thanks for the video of Roy Clark playing Malaguena. Years ago on another blog, I got into a fight with the guys over who was the better guitar player -- Stevie Ray Vaughn or Andres Segovia. None of us thought to even mention Roy Clark, but judging by that video, one of us should have.

Reading the prayer list makes me realize how good I've got it. I've got a pacemaker with a twelve year lifespan and I am tolerating dialysis much better these days, except for the inconvenience of sitting still for three and a half hours. The XO picked up a three month supply of pills for me yesterday that without Medicare Part D would have cost us about $1500. We only paid $75. And when I was eligible for Medicare, I also bought the biggest baddest Medicare Supplement I could find, which means my medical bills have been non-existent despite all the crap I've been through these past four years. I am so fortunate to have reached the age for Medicare, that I have the resources to pay for the supplement, and that I have a healthy husband who is willing to do so much while I am still recuperating.

So many of the Horde have much worse problems with much fewer resources. I am not the least bit religious, so all I can do is send you my best wishes and hope that your problems will be resolved with the least amount of hassle and cost.

366 I second #356's vote (LCMS Rulz!): hatpins. The ladies wore very fancy hats back in the day, skewered into place with some very fancy hatpins.
My grandma had given me a couple of hers long ago, but sadly they've vanished over the decades...

Just to enlighten the whippersnappers here: back in the 50's, before the Great Coarsening began, a lady did NOT go out without a hat and gloves. Even little girls being dragged along with mom on errands had to wear a dress, or at least a presentable skirt-and-blouse, AND those little white cotton gloves. Back then, men wore hats when out on the street, too. Essentially, everybody was expected to wear the "uniform" of their station-in-life when out in public.
We've gotten much more informal and egalitarian in dress since then. It's nice that we can dress for comfort now, but sometimes I miss the elegance and formality of dress AND PERSONAL COMPORTMENT of the old days.
