IN THE EMAIL FROM PATRICK CHILES:  Frozen Orbit.

THE BEGINNING OF LIFE AWAITS AT THE END OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM.

A FROZEN ANSWER AT THE EDGE OF PLANETARY SPACE

Set to embark on NASA’s first expedition to the outer planets, the crew of the spacecraft Magellan learns someone else has beaten them by a few decades: a top-secret Soviet project codenamed Arkangel.

Now during their long race to the Kuiper Belt, astronauts Jack Templeton and Traci Keene must unwind a decades-old mystery buried in the pages of a dead cosmonaut’s journal. The solution will challenge their beliefs about the nature of humanity, and will force the astronauts to confront the question of existence itself. And the final answer lies at the edge of the Solar System, waiting to change everything.

AND RELATED TO THAT LAST ITEM:  De-Worse It Gets.

NOT TO MENTION A HUGE IDIOT — THE WOKE DON’T BUY BOOKS! AND HONESTLY ARE A TINY AND NOISY RUMP OF THE REAL POPULATION — AND ABSOLUTELY AND ABJECTLY IRRATIONAL. MR. KING, NOTE THAT MAKING SURE THAT THERE ARE MINORITIES BY THE NUMBERS IN AWARDS SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN ON MERIT IS NOT A FAIR SHAKE. IT’S THE OPPOSITE. IT’S PREJUDGING PEOPLE BASED ON CHARACTERISTICS THEY WERE BORN WITH AND CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT:   Newsflash: Stephen King is a Coward.

THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT’S NOT JUST THE BERNIE CAMPAIGN. THERE ARE A NOT INSIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF LEFTISTS WHO REALLY BELIEVE THIS STUFF.  WHAT THEY DON’T GET IS THE LEVEL OF INSURRECTION THEY WOULD FACE: VGulags Are Awesome, Says Bernie Organizer To Project Veritas.

Ah, well, truth be told they’ve been like this for 20 years. Ever since I could pass and would sit among them and listen.  It’s just that now the masks are coming off.

YEP, YET ANOTHER ATTEMPT BY THE WOKESCOLDS — AKA WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE THINGS — TO KILL AN INSTITUTION, SKIN IT AND PRANCE AROUND IN ITS SKIN DEMANDING RESPECT:  Romance Writers And The Bullying Woke Scolds.

One of the things I noticed is that they convince themselves that everyone respects them after. Even as we’re actively pelting them with (metaphoric) refuse. It’s an example of their “run to mommy” obsession. They think these institutions retain power after being skinsuited. Just yesterday someone threatened to denounce a bunch of us to SFWA for saying mean things about her. What she thinks an organization I no longer belong to and which has no power over me (or truthfully over anyone or anything) is going to do to me I don’t know. It’s like a kindergartener threatening me with his mommy. Or worse, a mommy threatening me with her kindergartner.

THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT ONO WAS AT LEAST IN TUNE WITH HER TIMES, (AND OF COURSE WASN’T LIVING AT THE EXPENSE OF A COUNTRY’S TAXPAYERS) WHILE THE DUCHESS FOR THE NONCE KNOWN AS SUSSEX IS GOING ASTONISHINGLY AND BIZARRELY AGAINST THE TIDE OF PUBLIC OPINION AND SIDING WITH THE WOKE WHO ARE ELITES IN THEIR OWN MINDS ONLY:  While Yoko Ono Makes For an Amusing Meme, There is Nothing Funny About Her Radical Roots.

As for Ono’s “art”…. pretentiousness and an attempt to shock long dead Victorians. Who at any rare were far more outrageous than she can even imagine. Bah.

THIS PECULIAR COMBINATION OF SELF-ASSURANCE AND UTTER, BIZARRE, ROCK BOTTOM STUPIDITY IS DISTURBINGLY COMMON ON THE LEFT:  Ilhan Omar, Dope.

The sad thing is that even that doesn’t explain the clown car that is their primary candidates. For that, you’re going to need to posit more stupidity.

AS WE STAND TOE TO TOE WITH THE BOOGALOO:  Ever Feel Like Custer?

Pray for sanity in Virginia’s government. Yes, I know it would take a miracle. But without it, the powder keg will blow. Where the explosion stops only future historians know. And they ain’t born yet.

YEAH. THIS IS MY SHOCKED FACE. I TOTALLY EXPECTED NANCY TO STAND WITH THOSE FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM? DIDN’T YOU?  Nancy Pelosi Disses Courageous Iranian Protestors.

IS THAT WE GET WAAAAAY MORE OF IT:  The Problem With Indulging Stupidity.

IT’S FLOP SWEAT. SHE’S AFRAID HER CORRUPTION WILL BE EXPOSED FOR ALL TO SEE:  Pelosi unhinged.

AT LEAST THEIR NEWS ANCHORS APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING LIED:  Iran’s State News Anchor Resigns.

IF THE THINGS IN THE DEM PRIMARY ARE ELECTABLE…  WELL, AMMO AND CANNED GOODS. GO DEEP:  Who’s “electable”?

OBAMA HUNG THEM TO DRY SHAMEFULLY BEFORE. LET’S NOT DO THAT AGAIN:  “There can not be another massacre of peaceful protesters…The world is watching”.

YEAH, WELL, BRACE. WE’RE ACCELERATING TO AN EVENT HORIZON OF CRAZY:   “I don’t have answers, I only have questions edition.”

GUYS, LOOK, FIGHTING THE REVOLUTION WAS FAIR AND SQUARE. YES, EVEN KILLING THEIR DUDES (MOSTLY HESSIANS, ANYWAY).  AND YES, THEY DID BURN THE WHITE HOUSE IN 1814. BUT WE’VE BEEN AT PEACE A LONG TIME NOW. DID WE NEED TO SEND THEM A WOKE-BOMB?  My opinion on Harry’s and Meghan’s divorce from the Royal family.

DOES IT MAKE ME A BAD PERSON THAT THIS MAKES ME CHEER? GIVE THAT PRESIDENT A STAR. A GOLD ONE, OF COURSE:  Bernie-Warren feud turns nasty, so of course Trump fans the flames on Twitter.

I mean, look, the Democrat primary is a clown car that collided with a dumpster fire. We might as well make the flames higher and prettier.

YEAH? WELL, GO AHEAD, RENOUNCE YOUR CITIZENSHIP. WE’LL HOLD A WHIP AROUND TO BUY YOU A ONE-WAY TICKET TO THE COUNTRY OF YOUR CHOICE. IT WILL BE EXPENSIVE, BUT SOME THINGS ARE WORTH THE MONEY:  Poll Finds Over a Third of Young Americans Say Other Countries are Better.

WELL, IT’S HARD TO FIND A LOT OF SKIN COLORS ALL RUNNING THE SAME SOFTWARE IN THEIR HEADS, YOU KNOW?  Yale Pumps Millions into Faculty Diversity Hiring Efforts.

AND THAT’S THE TRUTH:  Economics Prof Blasts Higher Education for Wasting Tuition Dollars on Diversity Hires.

YEAH? NO ONE CARES. I DOUBT THIS WILL GET THAT MUCH PENETRATION IN THE HINTERLANDS. SOME OF US WORK FOR A LIVING:  Fashionable millennial men in NYC are embracing nail art.

I’M (SARAH A. HOYT) IN THIS ANTHOLOGY, AND IT’S ON SALE FOR 99C THIS WEEKEND:  Parallel Worlds: The Heroes Within.

It includes a lot of other “little known” writers, such as Jim Butcher.  Honestly, great buy and I should have linked earlier, but I was struck down by stomach flu and am just now returning to human. So, get it while it’s cheap!

FROM T. L. KNIGHTON:  The Last Champion (The Champion’s Cycle Book 1.)

When the kingdom of Altria falls before an expansionist lord, the champion Korr is tasked with spiriting off the next in line to the throne as well as a princess who could be used to legitimize the duke’s claim to the throne. Joined by his childhood friend, one of the legendary Rangers of Altria, Korr seeks shelter with the man who trained him to fight many long years ago.

Korr is charged with raising the young king and readying him to take back his kingdom, but a chieftain of the Bohgan people becomes something of an obstacle to that purpose. Can Korr keep King Darvos and Princess Lauranna safe?

SHADES OF GREY ARE ALL VERY WELL, BUT THE READER LIKES TO KNOW FOR WHOM HE SHOULD CHEER:  The World Needs Heroes.

WHY WOULD WE EVER VOTE FOR PEOPLE WHO HATE US AND EVERYTHING WE ARE?  Pelosi Leads the Left to Double Down on Iran.
