Your average, modernist American historian/teacher adds no value to Boston College. The name of her employer alone raises suspicion. She is a non-Christian teaching at a Jesuit institution, which makes sense because the Jesuits left Catholic orthodoxy long ago. What religion are they now? Two of her titles: Wounded Knee and How the South Won the Civil War, the second a cheap attention grabber. Avoid the white elitist. Don’t waste money buying her tickets.

“Planned Parenthood and its affiliates' efforts are centered around abortion. Despite the pandemic and lockdown policies, in its 2020-2021 annual report, Planned Parenthood and its affiliates performed 383,460 abortions.”

I couldn’t go to church. Load up on ice cubes and sunscreen. It will be a long summer. AOC wants better sunscreens. The young man’s guide: counsels, reflections, and prayers for Catholic young men by Fr. Lasance (1910). I use Lasance’s edition of the 1962 Missal. Josh and I have a mutual friend, Liam, who entered religious life today. Liam is in his 20s.

“According to data released on Thursday, a record 49,500 people [Americans] took their own lives last year [2022]. The new data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that suicides are at the highest point since World War II.”

This is a real federal case. It is not my opinion that suppression of free speech occurred. I know it did. Facebook censored me in December 2020 for saying, “The 2020 election was pitiful.” Nothing more. If that does not disturb you, you are not much of an American. Why is the sky blue? Before you answer, have a prism in your pocket.
Think of the Earth’s atmosphere as a prism of solid glass. White light refracts through its polished surfaces and separates into the colors of the rainbow. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one transparent substance into another, here from air into glass. When the Sun’s white light passes through the atmosphere, that is, the prism, the light is refracted into all the individual colors. Each color comes from an electromagnetic wave. Red has the longest and slowest wavelength. Blue and violet move in quick, short waves. The colors undulate charged particles in the air molecules, particles such as oxygen and nitrogen. About 99% of the Earth’s atmosphere is composed of two species of diatomic molecules: nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%). NO2 is nitrogen dioxide, dangerous. Alexander (nine) and I like thinking about using dangerous chemicals in our stories. Why else think about them? Anyway, what happens? Blue and violet are scattered in all directions at around 10 times the efficiency of red light, so they get the highest coverage area in our sky. My little brain thinks of efficiency as how fast you can get dressed when you are running late. However, our eyes are more sensitive to blue than violet, which is why we see the sky as blue. I have a copy of the 15-page letter from Seattle Police Department Lieutenant Jessica Taylor that announced her departure effective August 1, 2023, because the job had become impossible to do. She was on the force for 23+ years.
Paragraph 4 “Chief Diaz, let me tell you, the state of the Seattle Police Department and this city is a disgrace. The toxic mix of the Seattle City Council's absurdity, the spinelessness of the mayor, the leniency of the prosecutor's office, and your failed leadership has accelerated this city's downhill slide straight to rock bottom. The problems were already brewing before you came on the scene, but since your arrival, it's been a free fall into anarchy & chaos.” Assuming you are an American and assuming you are as valuable as an Iranian international criminal, your current worth is $3 billion.
A central figure in British medieval lore, King Arthur ordered a round table for his knights. The table symbolized that no knight was above another knight and that all had a voice at the table. Equality in a monarchical republic, a blend of Roman Empire and Roman Republic, works better than in a democracy, as we are witnessing world over. Triarii (plural) were one of the elements of the early Roman military manipular legions of the early Roman Republic (509BC – 107BC). They were the oldest and among the wealthiest men in the army and could afford high quality equipment.
They wore heavy metal armor and carried large shields, their usual position being the third battle line. They were equipped with spears and were elite soldiers among the legion … In most battles triarii were not used because the lighter troops usually defeated the enemy before the triarii were committed to the battle. They were meant to be used as a decisive force in the battle, thus prompting an old Roman saying: Res ad triarios venit. It comes down to the triarii. Conservative radio host and litigator Mark Levin said Monday that the prosecutions of former President Donald Trump look like the case of Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish captain in the French army who was unjustly accused and convicted of espionage in 1894 and completely exonerated.

Who was targeted? Traditional Catholics in Richmond, VA; Portland, OR; and Los Angeles, CA. “FBI Richmond assesses the increasingly observed interest of racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists (RMVEs) in radical-traditionalist Catholic (RTC) ideology almost certainly presents opportunities for threat mitigation through the exploration of new avenues for tripwire and source development,” said the memo. https://amgreatness.com/2023/08/10/jim-jordan-says-multiple-fbi-offices-coordinated-on-memo-targeting-catholics/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=act_eng&seyid=82201 The SSPX seminary is in Richmond, and chapels are in Portland and LA. This current government sees the Catholic Church as an enemy and wants to destroy her. Everyone knows it. Don’t lie. The left hates what the Church represents and would like to see us disappear. Not happening. We are 4 times the size of the USA, and I estimate the Latin Mass community to be 13 million worldwide. I have reported on this several times. Search my blog for an explanation or go directly to the hate group list of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), and on the list you will find the SSPX, thus creating the undeniable impression that some in the FBI, DOJ, or Biden WH agreed with the SPLC and did their bidding. Today, Alexander and I played a writer’s card game, “Cards Against Normality.” Alexander can create exciting, lunatic, science fiction tales out of nothing.
A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out. Gravity is so strong that matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying. Because no light can get out, people can’t see black holes. They are invisible. Space telescopes with special tools find black holes. NASA
El Greco paints Dominic in white and black because that is the habit and the color emphasizes his hands, which are centered in the portrait. How easy it is to count the fingers. Death is imminent, and respect and attention are due a priest because he places his hands on the dying. The longer you look at the painting, the more it appears as if there are two people there, one in white and one in black. Does Dominic contemplate his own death, or does he recall every person, not numbers, in his life? The ivory corpus, maybe elephant tusk, is quite distressed. “El Greco’s style, highly charged and hypnotic, was well suited to the aims of the Counter-Reformation. In the face of Protestant revolt, the Catholic Church sought to reform its practices and reinforce belief in its doctrines.
“Spain put its vast resources—expanded by conquests in the New World—at the service of the church, and Toledo, because it was the seat of the archbishop, played an active role. “The Council of Trent … explicitly recognized the importance of religious art. “El Greco, whose patrons were primarily learned churchmen, responded with intelligent and expressive presentations of traditional and newly affirmed Catholic beliefs….” National Gallery of Art, Constitution and Pennsylvania Avenues, Washington, D.C. America is a puritanical society lacking a respect and appreciation of the body. How many ways can you cut a rectangular board into four equal parts? Assume the board is a 2x4 or any similar measurement. Alexander was given the problem. You can build a hanging planter with nothing but 2x4s, a pallet, and one of my designs. The drawing I wanted Alexander to see was the “top right” one because with that one he could see that by halving rectangles again and again, one gets more and more of them.
Rectangles are fractals. https://medium.com/hackerlog/fractals-it-goes-on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-on-forever-14cae8b886e6 For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
For want of a shoe the horse was lost. For want of a horse the rider was lost. For want of a rider the battle was lost. For want of a battle the kingdom was lost. And all for the want of a horseshoe nail. by Anon recited spontaneously from memory by Alexander, nine Is mutiny ever justified? I believe in tradition, and that means authority is to be respected. The Sepoys were crushed justifiably, but what do tradition and justice demand when there is a lie? In the present circumstances of the Catholic Church, the Roman opposition to tradition and the lies surrounding the introduction of the new Mass justify mutiny against authority, and similarly if a civic leader is falsely accused and prosecuted.
Merlin is a family of rocket engines developed by SpaceX for use on its Falcon 1, Falcon 9, and Falcon Heavy launch vehicles. Merlin engines use a rocket grade kerosene (RP-1) and liquid oxygen as rocket propellants in a gas-generator power cycle. Author Pbroks13 Dec 1, 2018
