Register

 



One of the many benefits of the rural, bucolic Texan haven that is LSPland is that you get to look at local architecture after dropping off the rig for its yearly inspection at Tom's Tire. 

Look how the wooden roof shingles on this derelict have survived. I like that, but you can imagine its price in, say, Toronto, Austin or twin city San Francisco:


note shingles

Roofing reverie over, it's a short stroll along the leafy boulevards of this Texan farming community to the old jail and court house, which was built in the 1890s and admirably protected by steel shutters. Its modern equivalent would be a windowless slab of dun colored brick, pierced by bulletproof slits. My, how we've devolved.


Jail/Courthouse

Regardless, the jail's protected by a fierce junkyard dog and has a Liberty Tree, seeded from an Ash in Eisenhower's home town. And then, before melting in the searing, ovenlike heat of a July morning, you amble over to Montes for a late breakfast.


Fierce Dog!

Montes, now "Ya-Ya's," is blissfully cool, blinded and silent, it's just too hot for extraneous noise. So you sit there checking out Russkie Telegram channels while Ya Ya brings the right stuff. Huevos Rancheros, eggs over easy on corn tortillas with their hot rancheros sauce, refried beans, fried potatoes and homemade flour tortillas. What a feast.


Breakfast Time

Then return to Tom's, pay a massive fee of $7, pick up the truck, spin over to the court house annex where they're spraying the doors with disinfectant because science and register your vehicle. Easy. What a pleasant morning and so much less hassle than doing the same thing in the Metrosprawl.

Cheap Trick

 



Cheap trick? What, Kamala Harris, our government? No, just the band. Here they are, live at Budokan:

A Short Sunday Reflection

 



"I say old chap," I announced breezily to the Crucifer as we were getting ready for Mass at Mission #2, "Did you know the gerontocrat in nominal charge of our country has promised us a green, electric military by 2030?"

"No, I did not know that," replied the Crucifer, a retired artillery Captain (Vietnam) and active oil and gas analyst. "Well he has, said so in April on Earth Day. And it's all well and good until they run out of charging stations, what?"

My friend, a practical man who went to Yale when it was still a university, frowned and thought for a moment, "That's easy, they'll just bring up charging trucks with generators. Yes, generators running on gasoline." We chuckled, said our prayers and the Sacred Mysteries were celebrated in good order. 


Not the Crucifer, obvs, just a Texan assisting Mass

You know, not so long ago, back in the aughts, I'd have raised an eyebrow if you'd told me I'd be with a couple of mission churches in rural Texas. But I tell you what, it's been a real blessing and, curiously enough, by far and away the most diverse congregation(s) I've served, certainly the most intellectual.

What a blessing, farmers and ranchers, rodeo stars even, to people who make a living from the life of the mind, who write books as if by muscle memory. And all coming together to worship God as one.

I love that,

Sic Transit

 



You'll note Imperial Ladies aloft. Regardless, the Corsican Upstart ended his days on an island in the South Atlantic, his vaunted Grande  Armée smashed and defeated at Waterloo. So much for Boney.




His beautiful and gorgeous Empress Josephine died in 1814, a year before her philandering, adulterous Emperor was utterly and irrevocably defeated by the Iron Duke. Her last words, allegedly spoken through black and rotting teeth were, "Bonaparte … Elba … the King of Rome."

There is, if you care to draw it, a moral in this tale,

The New Green Military



Did you know that the US military, the most powerful, deadly armed force the world has ever seen, is going green as well as trans? That's right, green, environmentally friendly, leading the way to net zero carbon emissions and the well being of Gaia, fragile planet earth. How?

By divesting its destructive power from killer fossil fuel and making its war machines run on electricity. Our beloved and popular Commander-in-Chief promised as much in April, on Earth Day. Here he is, Old Uncle Joe himself, "Every vehicle in the United States military is going to be climate-friendly. We're spending billions of dollars to do it." 





Leaving aside the canting hypocrisy of an environmentally friendly war machine, step back in awe as 7.62 plants poppies, consider the prospect of a future war. A near peer-to-peer conflict with China in the Pacific and Russia in Europe.

Imagine, ChiComs and Russkies roll over the start line with their binary gender macro aggression, non-pronoun armies, and we rainbow trans roll out to meet them. A ferocious clash of arms ensues; we do well, Western green tech is better than their Sov inspired rubbish. But then... disaster!




Right there, perhaps on the steppes of the Ukraine itself, we run out of charging stations for our tanks, IFVs, self-propelled guns, tracked air defense, mobile artillery, trucks, MWRAPS, MLRS. All of it, the whole nine yards grinds to a halt because there aren't electric outlets on the field of battle. Oh dear.





By its own admission, the Biden administration's going to spend billions of dollars on this puerile, risible, corrupt, dropped-on-head-as-infant idiocy, which is bad enough. In the meanwhile, the US Army's received one electric Humvee, "It has more than 1,000 horsepower, and 11,500 pound-feet of wheel torque, allowing it to achieve 0-60 mph in 3 seconds." Here's a photo:



Hmmmm. I kinda want one.

Cheers,

NATO WARRIORS!

 



The US Military's suffering from a grievous lack of recruits across all branches, but the Army's worst hit with only 40% of its recruitment goals met this year. Go figure, why would patriots want to join Biden's trans theater group collective? 

Ramzan Kadyrov is just one of many mocking our rainbow transition to soft power. Can you blame him? Via Telegram:


Here they are, NATO warriors! 🤣 👗 👠

We are trapped to fight with them. Give us a normal opponent, so that he was courageous, so that we could tell our grandchildren how scary and dangerous he was. And what is this? Who is this? How can I tell my grandchildren about them? 🙊

- Granddaughter, the enemy was funny and not dangerous, painted, of indeterminate gender...

- Grandfather, did you fight with aliens?

- If only, granddaughter, if only...

I'm even ashamed to talk about them and tell them in my channel. How to aim at them? It's such a shame. Imagine a battlefield where such a decorated creature is running at you, with a Louis Vuitton backpack, rhinestones on a picatinny rail and stilettos, and you close your eyes and shoot at him blindly, because you can't see it!

But seriously, it is these "values" that the West is trying to propagandize on all fronts. This forced imposition has already borne fruit in Ukraine, look at the official accounts of Nezalezhnaya in social networks, publications of their official media. Everything is saturated with this vile idea. Do you think we will become the same as these...

Ugh! 😗 💦

This will never happen. That is why we should be grateful to our President and his Team, who maintain a strict foreign and domestic policy to prevent the degradation of society. We protect natural, healthy, clear human values.

We want children to have a FATHER and MOTHER, so that their psyche from childhood was not traumatized, but was healthy, strong, balanced. And it will be. ☝🏼 ☝🏼 ☝🏼

We have crossed the Rubicon and will resist abomination and Satanism to the bitter end.


 

typical failed US Army recruitment idiocy


Resist abomination and Satanism to the bitter end. Whoa, lest you be quick to scorn the Chechen warlord for hyperbole and exaggeration remember that Baphomet's notoriously trans. Which begs the question.

What side is NATO, in effect the US, really on? As always, you be the judge.

Man On The Moon

 



53 years ago yesterday, Neil Armstrong set foot on the Moon. "One small step for man, one giant step for mankind." I remember the day. Morning in Milwaukee at the Campus Rectory, my dad was a UWM chaplain, and my parents called me in, "Look at this, son!" And I did, a flickering black and white image of a man on the Moon, history in the making. Quite a thing.




Of course Neil Armstrong wouldn't be able to say "man" and "mankind" today because patriarchal oppression. By the same token, we haven't really been back to the Moon and no wonder, we've devolved to such an extent that we're unable to define "man" and "woman." Is that a first? Perhaps.




Speaking of which, world leaders are Bastille Day laughing at us. Wonder why. At some point, maybe soon, narrative will flounder on the rocky shore of reality.

Watch my tracer,
