KIND OF LIKE THEIR VIOLENCE IS SPEECH AND OUR SPEECH IS VIOLENCE:  It’s only stochastic terrorism when the right does it.

THE LEFT HAS THIS PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF BOOKS:  Harrison Bergeron was a warning, not an instruction manual.

1984, Brave New World, Animal Farm, maybe even A Canticle for Leibowitz the way they’re looking for a nuclear war.

THEY WISH IT WOULD BECOME THE NEW NORMAL; I DON’T THINK IT PLAYS THAT WAY:  The new normal: persecuting an expert witness because he testified for the defense in a political-charged trial.

WELL, YOU KNOW, PUBLIC SCHOOL IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GRAFT:  Morris County schools super allegedly misused federal funds, audit finds.

Twenty-seven years after the fall of Constantinople…Caterina, Countess of San Florian, keeps a book of important things she’s learned, from poison antidotes to cosmetic recipes, from charms for toothache to ways of raising and commanding demons. Having a reasonable care for her soul, she has never actually tried demonic magic. Yet.Gian, captain of her personal guard, has an innate magical talent that does not rely on incantations, but warns him of danger and awakens him to opportunities. It makes him nervous.And Sultan Mehmed II wants one last great victory. San Florian would be an excellent base of operations for his army to attack Venice.On the run from Venice to Constantinople after the Turkish-aided takeover of San Florian, Gian and Caterina will need all their wits and every scrap of magic they can employ to escape, to survive, and to recapture their city.

THEY TALK SUING BUT I DOUBT THEY’VE A CHANCE AT ANYTHING BUT LOOKING EVEN MORE RIDICULOUS:   Meghan Markle ‘upset and overwhelmed’ by ‘South Park’ episode: report.

THIS WON’T HELP PROPERTY TAX RECEIPTS:  Office landlord debt defaults rising as remote work takes hold: report.

You know, anyone could see this coming as the result of the lockdowns, but the left insists on believing only what they want will happen. One step thinking.

BEHOLD, MY SHOCKED FACE:  UN Inspectors Find Weapons-Grade Uranium at Iran Nuke Site.

DON’T YOU HATE HAVING YOUR MOM PUBLICLY EMBARRASS YOU?  Raquel Evita Saraswati, who claimed Arab, South Asian, Latin descent, outed by her own mom: ‘White as driven snow’.

THE LEFT ALLOWS NOT THE SLIGHTEST DEVIATION FROM THEIR ORTHODOXY:  JK Rowling: The Witch Trials, The Plotting and The Burning.

Woke is a jealous god.

OH, YEAH? ARE WE GOING TO NOT PAY ALL THEIR MEDICAL CARE AND EDUCATION?  Biden Establishes New Policy That Penalizes Those Who ‘Cross the Border Illegally’.

Yeah, I thought not. Also, arent’ they going to give free entry passes by the bazillion anyway?

THE LEFT LOVES WAR. SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY FOR GRAFT AND CORRUPTION:  Biden Speech: The Ukraine War Will Never End.

SOME QUESTIONS MUST BE ASKED, BECAUSE THERE’S A LOT OF CONFUSION:  Your Duty To Your Country.

WHY NOT? THERE ISN’T A SHRED OF EDUCATION LEFT IN AMERICAN SCHOOLS:  The Right Cannot Afford to Abandon Public Education.

At this point kids would learn more from loitering on street corners. At least they would learn the rough money arithmetic of illiterates the world over. The schools work really hard at not educating the kids, while filling their heads with things that just ain’t so.

NEMESIS NEVER SLEEPS:  Bombshells, Landmines, and Nemesis.

IT’S WHO HE IS, IT’S WHAT HE DOES:  The Toxic Racialist Obsessions of Joe Biden.

THIS RACE CARD WAS WAY OVERDRAWN:  Pushback: Home appraiser sues professors who called him racist without evidence.

A man whose debts must be paid by vengeance. A woman desperate to save her husband. A grieving father finding a young enemy soldier on his veritable doorstep…

These fantasy and soft sci-fi stories wonder whether or not heroes need families. Are we not told that families slow the hero down? Is it not typically implied that they get in the way of the adventure? Are they a burden, or truly the greatest strength from which the hero and those he loves can draw?

Six tales in this collection center on family, faith, and self-sacrificing love as men and women fight for the ones whom they hold most dear. Whether the enemy is inner turmoil, a nightmare, or a demon really does not matter. If the threat seeks to harm a member of the family, it is going to pay dearly.
