Heresy

I’m playing a dwarf champion in a Pathfinder campaign right now, and I decided I wanted to get a miniature. So I went to the store to buy one. The only dwarves I could find had no beards. I felt like I was in that meme where one guy slaps the other guy and says “that’s heresy.” So I went to another store. No dwarves. Another store. No beards. I had to go to four gaming stores who stock roleplaying miniatures before I found a dwarf with a beard. This is wrong on so many levels. I call for justice for dwarves! Bring back the beards! Because dwarves without beards is just heresy. 😉

Incoming

The incoming nominations for Trump’s government have met with some questions from Democrats and The Media, but I repeat myself. If you wish to research the picks, search for the current people holding those offices and search for the people Trump wants to place there. And look beyond the Mainstream Media when you do this. Then ask yourself which looks more rational? Have any of Trump’s picks stolen womens’ luggage at airports so they can wear them? Just one test to consider. Trump is Incoming, and so are his people. Compare them all to what they are replacing.

Breaking Free of The System

Breaking free of The System is not easy. It has spoken with one voice all my life. There was talk radio that broke things, but you had to go to it. Then there was Fox News for a time. The Internet. Social media. Then podcasts. There have always been places you can go to get other information, but the Main Stream Media has always been united. They’ve spoken the news that was true, and most people believed it. It’s hard to come to terms with the idea that you’ve been lied to. We all want to belong. We don’t want to be berated for being on the wrong side. And when The System is united in saying what the right side is, it is hard to pick the other one. But over 70 million people broke free of The System and voted against it this year. And that is amazing.

Freedoms

I recently ran into a very interesting quote in the Honor Harrington Anthology “Beginnings.” The Charles E. Gannon story has a very interesting quote.

“persons must be free to read, write, say, and think what they will. Without that all other freedoms are not merely meaningless, they are shams.”

I think that is a very important thing to consider right now. Do we want to live in a world with real freedoms, or will we accept the sham in the name of safety?

Some Believe

Yesterday’s update should be an exhaustive list of all the things we remembered and watched the last few years. It is not. Even minutes after publishing, I had more terrible things that should be on there. But it doesn’t need to be exhaustive. It tells a point. The Democrats and The Media told us things that over 70 million Americans straight up said we don’t believe. But over 60 million Americans voted the way those institutions wanted them to. They followed the narrative. And in a great many cases they BELIEVE it. That Trump, and those who vote for him, truly are the Bad People the system tells them we are. And people who believe that are easy to radicalize into violence. Be careful out there. I expect rocky times ahead.
