Willie Nelson Goes Full Beto Soy

Famed Texas outlaw country superstar, Willie Nelson, dismayed fans by announcing he's rooting for cross dressing, cotton gin chasing, DUI running Beto. 

Look, a Delicious Beto!

And no, Beto isn't just a delicious Mexican cheese sandwich, it's an ambitious Democrat who's fixing to take Ted "He May Be A Fool But He's Our Fool" Cruz's seat in the Senate.

Not content with this shameless, brazen, literal skulduggery, multimillionaire socialist Nelson plans to boost Beto's candidacy with a new tour, The Boys Gone Soy.

Nice Frontrunners, Beto

Waylon Jennings had this to say.

And what can we say? 

Mothers, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys.

Assault And Battery White Wolf Remix

This one's for the White Wolf Mine and LL. I won't won't comment further except to say that a RAMPART needs a TOWER and we're all looking forward to the PLANE, which is important.

A Beautiful Rainbow Evensong!

One of the best things about Anglicanism is its big tent inclusivity. On the one hand it has breadth to encompass the harsh calvinist and on the other, the sacramental catholic. Then there's this, from the recent Pride Evensong in Brisbane cathedral. Here's an excerpt:

Rainbow Christ, you embody all the colors of the world. Rainbows serve as bridges between different realms: Heaven and Earth, east and west, queer and non-queer. Inspire us to remember the values expressed in the rainbow flag of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community.

Orange is for sexuality, the fire of spirit. Erotic Christ, you are our Fire, the Word made flesh. Free us from exploitation, and grant us the grace of mutual relationships. With the orange stripe in the rainbow, kindle a fire of passion in us.

Moving, right? But don't worry, there's more. The Dean, Peter Catt, went on to reflect on the Trinity. 

Unsurprisingly, the Trinity, for Catt, is queer because it's not about "binaries," heaven forfend. Here he is, "The Trinity is our Queering principle, that which invites us to defy binaries and labels."

That'll bring 'em in!

Before you throw up in your mouth, remember this. Those who go against the Holy Spirit will be relentlessly destroyed by that same Spirit. The same, by extension, goes for the Holy Trinity.

Well done David Virtue, David Ould and Anglican Ink for bringing in the news.

Won't Back Down

Remember the way China charges loads of money on US firms importing to China and we don't? China protects its economy with tariffs, unlike us, so all our industry went to China.

What did that leave us? Everyone living on welfare and loving the decaying slum of our inner city hellholes, while the tasseled loafer brigade laughed all the way to the bank and the nearest NWO approved country club.

Trump said he'd reverse this iniquity and all the people who'd been asset-stripped to hell and back voted in favor. The crew of elitists getting rich off the stripping didn't see it coming, they thought the working men and women they'd shafted were too stupid to get it. Big mistake.

Trump's working to reverse the equation and re-industrialize America, i.e. get us back to actually making things so ordinary people can make a living. That means putting an end to our trading partners' unfair advantage.

Here's Steve Bannon via Zero:

Our factories got shipped out of here. Wall Street made a fortune. The private equity made a fortune. Right now President Trump’s focus is on stopping it.

Read the whole thing here and rock on MAGA.

St. Matthew The Apostle

It's the Feast of St. Matthew the Apostle and Evangelist today so here's a prayer to help get the festivities rolling. From the 1928 Book of Common Prayer instead of some weird newfangled nonsense.

O ALMIGHTY God, who by thy blessed Son didst call Matthew from the recipt of custom to be an Apostle and Evangelist; Grant us grace to forsake all covetous desires, and inordinate love of riches, and to follow the same thy Son Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, world without end. Amen.

God bless,

Lighten Up LSP!

Hey, lighten up LSP, said one of the very few people who bother to read this inconsequential kebob stand on the information super highway. I took their advice and went fishing.

Would they bite? Good question. With that in mind I challenged the piscine adversary with topwater lures. Cast, wait, twitch, retrieve. If you're good at it you'll break into the predatory rhythm of the Bass  and catch bucket loads, but I'm impatient.

Still, one voracious Bass couldn't resist the clicking, rattling, twitching, shining lure and surged onto the enemy like a Russian submarine going down the Potomac. BOOM! Great result.

A few more strikes and clouds started rolling in because, despite the best efforts of the Anglican Communion, the climate had changed and it started to rain.

It was time for Mass too, and that's exactly what happened.

Anglican Church Goes Full Green

The leader of the Anglican Communion, Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby has launched a bold new initiative to unite the world's third largest denomination against a common enemy, the Weather.

Called the "Season of Creation," Welby's green campaign has solicited "Letters of Creation" from the Communion's leading bishops, asking them to describe the catastrophic effects of global warming and climate change.

Welby has called the battle to stop the weather changing "essential to the life of faith" and an "ethical crisis."

The ethical crisis of climate change is an opportunity to find purpose and joy, and to respond to our Creator’s charge. Reducing the causes of climate change is essential to the life of faith. It is a way to love our neighbour and to steward the gift of creation.

Not to be outdone, Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, held a special green worship ritual featuring people on stilts dressed as trees and shirtless liturgical dancers.

The leader of the Episcopal Church, Presiding Bishop, Michael Curry is vocal in his support of Welby's green crusade.

“We can maintain a vigorous and effective commitment, and empower Anglicans everywhere to undertake bold action to mitigate and reverse climate change," stated Curry.

Whether the bold action called for by Curry, Welby and the Ents of San Francisco will be enough to stop the Weather from changing remains to be seen.

Rebel Sunday

It's Sunday and that means church, obviously, and a heartwarming blast of the Grateful Dead. Here at the Compound we like Stagger Lee. But that's just us, maybe you like Loser instead. There's no rule.

Also, some readers have been calling for a kind of rebel action in the art world, to overthrow the occult antics of Abramovic and associated degenerate orthodoxy. Here's a solution, old but gold, note chainsaw sculpture.

Good work boys!

Hippies, Cause Or Symptom

Why are we in the mess we're in today, and it is a mess. A super athlete bloke is hailed as woman of the year. We're told that a country without borders is patriotic, that abortion's healthcare and the more you're taxed the richer you will be.

For that matter, we're supposed to believe that it's somehow OK for a duly elected president to live under a 2 year+ investigation for "Russian Collusion" without a shred of evidence, and all at taxpayer expense. Well, don't say Deep State and they never thought she'd lose.

But regardless, throw a dart at the board and get a nasty story. From Syria to Abolish ICE to trans bathrooms as the new sacrament of civil liberty, the whole edifice of Western Civ seems to be going down the pan. Whose fault is it? Hippies?

Some say yes, the hippies are responsible. They're thieves, liars and mountebanks, just look what they did to Joni! And, at the drop of a dreadlock they'll rip off your sailboat and trash your land.

Still, are hippies the cause, the symptom or both?

SPACE FORCE

We've all felt a bit of a patriotic glow at the the thought of a SPACE FORCE protecting us from orbit, and here at the Compound we hope you enjoy this inspirational video. Space Force? Pump Up The Volume.

But MARRS has evolved. So let's hear it for Jubl and thinking sweet. Some call it "dreampop," others say SPACE FORCE.

Well done, team.

El Conquistador

One of the things people like to do in this town is eat Tex Mex at El Con. El Con is short for El Conquistador and that's where you'll find everyone on any given Friday evening.

I don't know why but no one accuses El Con of cultural appropriation and nobody seems to notice the restaurant's brazen stand for Spanish imperial conquest.

It's strange, but there's no movement here to replace the place's unashamedly colonial brand with something more "woke," like Los Incas, Azteca or El Jolly Old Skull Wall. That's just not happening and the name remains along with a militarist suit of armor, horse totems and a couple of clay bull idols.

A Typical Aztec Skull Tower. They Cannibalized the Rest of the Victim

After a hearty meal in honor of Cortez, we were well satisfied. Pizarro and the gang sure know how to cook up a plate of Tres Enchiladas; cheese, it being Friday. Good work, conquistadors!

It was raining outside as we left and that too was good. At last the humid sauna of Rainforest Texas was broken by water falling from the sky as lightning flashed noiselessly overhead.

God bless,
