THE MORNING RANT: Please Respect My Verbs
This whole pronoun thing was kind of confusing to me at first. Language exists to foster communication, and having people create their own unique grammar and then demand that others speak their special language is weird. From a CNN article (linked further below) comes this interesting first sentence:
There are not actually multiple Demi Lovatos being referenced here. (Or would that be Demis Lovato?) She just identifies as plural. Or something like that. But I am now totally cool with all this, and here’s why – I am unique and special too, so I now have my own verb conjugations! Please respect my verbs! This is real simple. Because I have such a rich abundance of interests and situational personalities, I will need for everyone to always use plural verbs when talking to me or about me. For example, if griping about me writing again about one of my favorite topics at Ace of Spades HQ, you might say, “Oh no, Buck are writing about Principled Tree Traders again.” We’ll get to more examples of how to properly use my verbs later in this piece, but first, I’d like to link to this very helpful CNN piece about pronouns. How to get people’s pronouns right and what to do if you slip up
With Demi Lovato revealing that they are non-binary and using they/them pronouns, it’s a good time to make sure you’re up to speed on pronoun etiquette.
This inspires me. Just differently. If Demi can have plural pronouns, then I can have plural verbs.
The most common third-person singular pronouns are “she/her/hers” and “he/him/his.” “They/them” can also be used to refer to a single person, while some people use gender-neutral or gender-inclusive pronouns like “ze/hir” (pronounced “zee/here”instead.
I’m starting to get it. While “my verbs” might be unrelated to my gender, I am still a very special person who is uniquely me. My emotional and psychological sense of my own special identity is such that verbs used by the rest of you are not satisfactory to me. In fact, your verbs are repressing me.
Using the pronouns that a person goes by is a way of respecting that person’s gender identity, meaning a person’s emotional and psychological sense of their own gender.
And the same goes for me and my verbs! When ignorant bigots continue to use a singular verb when talking about me, even though my verbs are always plural, you are telling me that I am unimportant. Or worse, that I don’t even exist to you. But by the way, I do have special pronouns too. Instead of “he/him” my pronouns are “him/he.” This applies to the reflexive version too, “heself” instead of “himself.” Whenever you would normally use the word “he” when referring to me, you must use the word “him” instead, and vice versa. Grammar snobs might protest that “him” cannot be the subject of a sentence and “he” cannot be the object of the preposition. Sorry, grammar snobs, but that train left the station when our elite media embraced the transgender lobby’s boutique language agenda. So how do you use my pronouns? Here’s an example: “Buck said that him will never buy he-self an electric vehicle.” Now let’s put it all together. Here’s an example of how to talk about me using my verbs and my pronouns. “Have Buck bought he wife an anniversary gift, and do him have a plan if she wants he to consider buying a Tesla?” It’s that easy. Just educate yourself. Well actually, it’s not easy. It’s beyond ridiculous, as is using “they” as a singular pronoun or demanding that people use a non-existent word as someone’s unique pronoun. So let’s make a deal. All of you who reject the pronoun silliness do not have to respect my verbs. But Demi Lovato, CNN, and any other pronoun-pushers may not contact me or communicate with me unless they respect my verbs, and my pronouns. Doing otherwise would be the same as denying my existence.
If someone tells you that they go by the pronouns “they/them,” for example, and you continue to use “he/him” pronouns for them, it can signal that you believe that transgender, non-binary or intersex people are unimportant, or shouldn’t exist.
It’s the weekend before Halloween and many of you will be heading to costume parties this weekend. Same here. Ace always hosts a big Halloween party for the co-bloggers at his manor (see picture above.) It’s a blast. JJ called dibs on the Fetterman costume, which pairs up nicely with Mannix’s Frankenstein costume. KT will raid her garden for her costume, dressing up as a scarecrow. CBD will be handing out sous vide treats, of course. Perfessor Squirrel will probably disappear into Ace’s library, but we’ll drag him out when Weasel starts inspecting guns and passing out ammo in preparation for MisHum to lead us out for some moonlight bat hunting. Krakatoa is always the first to leave so he can get up early to post the EMT, but Pixy will zoom in from Australia, a weird place where Halloween is equal to April 30 and blood circles the drain in reverse of how it does in the northern hemisphere.
There will be all sorts of fun party games, and we’re all still trying to figure out Weird Dave’s secret when it comes to apple bobbing, since he wins that contest every danged year. As for me, after being instructed to “educate yourself” by an army of EV enthusiasts, I will be in charge of keeping the lights on at the party by using the battery in Ace’s electric Hummer as a backup charger when lightning (or errant bat hunters) knock out the electricity to the house. As always, the highlight of the evening is when Ace slowly emerges from his crypt, and we all start dancing to the Monster Mash. Wish you could be there.Comments

One of our daughter's friends is a girl (a REAL girl) who presents as a girl and dates males exclusively, but has adopted a gender neutral name and insists on being "they."
Daughter was saying something about "they" talked to their parents blah blah and I am thinking wait I thought there was only one person involved? Turns out it was this person. That just screws up the language for...something? Which is Buck's point. We are each empowered to tell people how to form their language. Umm, no.

Sex = biology/dna
Sexuality = attraction (straight, gay etc)
Energy = feminine / masculine, yin/yang
There's always been effeminate males and masculine females.

1) A crazed MAGA supporter inspired by the insurrection on January 6th (expect a lot of stories by the media claiming this over the next few hours)
2) Just a random San Francisco home invader, marching into a random multi-millionaire's house
3) Someone in The Family is mad at the Pelosis, and is sending a little message. Sort of like Harry Reid and his "exercise equipment".

German has three genders, right? Masculine, feminine, and neutered. I think the UK school's idea was to make all nouns neutered in all cases, which probably sounds weird and dumb as fuck to an actual German speaker.

They've succeeded with German - Cambridge University invented genderless German, which is incomprehensible to actual Germans, and a woman exec at language training company Babbel has declared that it's the future. (It's *always* a woman exec, innit?)
Hispanics have beaten back "LatinX" but the wokes are retrying with "Latine". And France has a formal agency to police the language which also is having none of this.

You people need to respecting my nouns. Since I identify as the Alpha and Omega, and all things are within my self-definition, all nouns are henceforth "YD."
Where you might have once, in your benighted past, before you got woke today, have said:
"I went to the store and bought peanuts and a coke for my wife,"
You will now say:
"YD went the the YD, and bought YD and a YD for my YD."
YD hope this clarifies YD. Get it it right, or YD will throw a shrieking fit and burn down your YD.

Perhaps I should first know who Demi Lovato is, and why she is so important that the English language should be mangled out of all comprehension to satisfy her whims.

The two little girls who died in a long-ago January — I imagine the bereaved family standing there in a cold wind on a then-bare hill as their babies are buried. Louis Choteau, stabbed at his trading post down by the river, staggered up to our place and died; his friends buried him where he died. My grandfather tracked down the rock used to mark his grave, and put a cement block around the rock. Several Cherokees from when the Euros could only get into the state by marriage to AmerIndians. Also nearby, tomb of my father, my aunt, and their parents.
Not so spooky (as it was to me when young), but fascinating and sad.
Remember, friend, as you pass by,
As you are now, so once was I.
As I am now, so you shall be.
Prepare for death and follow me.

"The Body Snatchers" is a great Karloff film, and "Bedlam" with Karloff as the evil head of the notorious Bedlam asylum is probably one of Karloff's best acting roles ever.
A guilty favorite of mine which I mention from time to time is "The Mask of Fu Manchu" (1932) with Karloff as the Evil Fu Manchu, and Myrna Loy as his wickedly sexual daughter. (obviously pre-code) It's really a terrible movie with a terrible script, but what I love about it is that you have this stinker of a movie with two really great actors in it, and they both decide to just go over the top in every scene they're in. You get the sense that you can almost see them winking at each other saying "hey, get a load of what I'm gonna do next!!!" Plus, where else can you see Myrna Loy playing a whacked out Chinese dominatrix?

Creature is accidentally interesting. The director didn't direct anything underwater (and there's a lot underwater), and the second-unit director who did direct the underwater stuff made the Creature like an innocent and really sympathetic. Everything above water is just monster stuff. It's almost King Kong in a way.
Phantom is more like Topsy Turvy than the original silent horror film. It's more about the opera than the horror. I really like it.

Claude Rains' voice is special, for sure. And that film also exhibits some unexpected humor ("Here we go gathering nuts in May . . ."), probably because James Whale directed it as well as Bride of Frankenstein.

I had the opposite experience at the Perkins in Cake Eater Central (Edina MN) Every other Perkins has a cash register at the entrance where you pay, to simplify any drunken teenager's ability to dine and dash. So, I finish my breakfast, pick up the check, and head to the entrance. Looking around? No register. The waitress snottily told me they pick up the check at the table. Then ignored me for 10 minutes, making me almost late.
I saw they bulldozed the place a few months ago to put in another useless commercial storefront next to the existing vacant commercial storefronts.

Whale was a talent, but he sure did love him some camp. Una O'Connor's constant screaming in that and Bride both kind of turn me off a bit (especially Bride).
He was the best filmmaker Carl Laemmle, Jr. brought into make movies. There was a reason he was so desperate to get Whale to direct The Mummy (he didn't, it went to a German, former cinematographer who barely spoke English as his first directorial assignment in Hollywood).

I recently re-watched "Creature" with more mature eyes then when I was young, and I realized that the underwater scenes are some of the most sexually voyeuristic ever put into mainstream film. Through the eyes of the creature, the audience is invited to join in long, lingering looks at every inch of the swimmer's body.
no wonder everybody wanted to see it.

One of my favorite Claude Rains movies is "Deception" (1946) with Bette Davis and Paul Henreid. Rains plays this over-the-top classical music conductor with Beethoven hair, and he delights in psychologically tormenting his ex-lover Davis and her new beau Henreid. It's dark but with a lot of very funny scenes.

I picked up a Hitchcock collection about a year ago. Another deficiency alleviated; I only really knew Hitchcock through The Three Investigators, which I doubt were actually written by him.
Notorious is not in the collection; I’ll have to keep an eye out for it. But one that was is The Birds. I’d thought I’d seen part of it years ago, and never finished it because the threat was so silly on screen. But either I was remembering a Birds ripoff or it just doesn’t translate to the tiny screens of yesteryear, because it was both enjoyable and (mostly) credible.

My view as a grownup is that I don't understand why the Creature or any other monster would be attracted to a human female. Okay, King Kong thought of the girl as a pet, I guess. But a human woman wouldn't look or smell right (i.e., sexual) to a being like the Gill Man.
In a story of mine I had a centaur who was a sociopath. But he had no designs on the human girl in the story, and I never considered that for a second. It'd be like getting aroused by an artichoke.

Yeah, one of the things I now realize I missed by not seeing any of this older stuff is how much cultural weight was brought in by these actors in old cartoons.
One of the GOATs of voice work was the Rocky & Bullwinkle standby Hans Conried. He’s everywhere in old movies with great parts. And I just rewatched the old Hobbit cartoon (yes, horrible script, but wonderful art—I watched the unofficial restoration, The Hi-Fi Hobbit from, I think, the Internet Archive) and there he was again, as Thorin.

Leaving cross-species phillia aside for a moment, (and the glorious camp of 'Mars Needs Women' media) it perhaps shows that the monster isn't just a creature at all. It's not an animal, it has in fact human feelings and motivations. That makes it scarier than just a shark or a bear...or a bear holding a shark.

The incident went down Friday morning in San Francisco, according to Speaker Pelosi’s spokesman, who says the alleged attacker “violently assaulted Mr. Pelosi” after breaking into the house. It’s unclear exactly what Paul’s injuries are, but he had to be rushed to a hospital.
The suspect did not escape.
Pelosi’s spokesman says, “The Assailant is in custody and the motivation for the attack is under investigation.” He adds that Paul is still in the hospital for treatment, and is “expected to make a full recovery.”

That is just a fun movie where all the actors and actresses got to ham it up. Support Your Local Gunfighter is also fun with a somewhat different cast of characters.

These... people... with their words, are exactly that, and I consider them, with their words and incantations, no different than the natives filtering out of the Mayan mountains.
I expect they are no more bullet proof.

You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray

It's the human default. It's not 'primitive', and I gave that idea up many decades ago. To believe any other human is primitive is to believe in human evolution and 'progress' and one has just fallen into the Progressive trap that preaches human nature can be fundamentally changed.
The belief that words and particularly written words are magic is NOT a structured belief or a creed, it is a human default setting. It doesn't have to be taught. Destroy rational education and intensive training, then magic and its extension, alchemy, is the result.
This is the real pernicious and vicious teaching of Marxism: that destroying rational structures designed to limit natural human behaviors will result in Utopia. It does not: it results in human nature erupting. We are seeing that now.

You just said you don't want to believe what you are seeing.
I saw that with Covid.
Explain these peoples' behavior otherwise.
"My spoken and/or written word makes reality!"
Explain that belief in any terms other than insanity or magic.

It's not ignorance or a lack of knowledge of the effect of a spoken or written order. They KNOW.
Herein is why I stated what I stated about you guys not getting it: it's not rational.
It's hard to accept the idea that the Best And The Brightest are now no more than a Pagan Priest Cult making incantations.

I was going to say Ladyhawke, but though it stars Rutger Hauer, it wasn't directed by Verhoeven.

When a Pedocrat Nazi insists that you use some nonsensical bit of language, punch them as hard as you can in the face. Male, female, young or old - just do it reflexively without even thinking about it. The response should come as swiftly and brutally as you are capable.
This problem would resolve itself in a matter of days.
