It has taken me just over two years to find out the limitations of Facebook for the sharing of personal viewpoints. The social media giant has become submerged with unsubtle memes, links to mainstream media news articles that have not been read before sharing, and certainly not read before being commenting on. Facebook has become […]

MONDE – Les États-fusils d’Amérique
L’Amérique ne doit plus être un pays où tout est permis, où il n’y a pas de limites et où les valeurs morales se plient aux considérations financières et à l’influence politique. Haily Jordan, une lycéenne américaine, a défendu le libre accès aux armes à feu aux États-Unis. Son principal argument est que, […]
American Gun Problem Is Cultural
All the other stuff, the love, the democracy, the floundering into lust, is a sort of by-play. The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. – D.H. Lawrence (1923) High school student Haily Jordan wrote an essay defending the free access to guns in the […]
On The Edge Of A “Sexual Ravine” – One Giant Leap Forwards For Womanhood
Most women find themselves constantly on the edge of a dangerous and ubiquitous “sexual ravine.” Those who fall into the trap of the ravine no longer see themselves as unique and valuable individuals. They possess a physical body that constantly requires an appearance corresponding to sexual criteria imposed by men. The ravine extracts from its […]
Why Can’t I Be A Famous Moronic YouTuber?
I used not to mind YouTubers. Now I do. I suppose that I’m just jealous of a YouTuber who has 6 times more followers than inhabitants in the Netherlands. The bottom line is that I’m probably jealous of every single YouTuber. How I would love to have 98,457,085 subscribers to my blog. I’ve given up […]
So What, Ambassador – Isabel Had Sex And Then Took A Leak
No one was much bothered by what had been leaked. Kim Darroch, the UK ambassador to the US, had only reported back what had long been obvious to the entire world: that Donald Trump was vain and inept and ran a wholly dysfunctional administration. It was the sort of email that anyone might send after watching […]
FRANCE: François de Rugy – Big Mac À L’Élysée
C’est navrant lorsque des ministres à court d’idées sont persécutés pour autre chose par le pays qu’ils tentent de gouverner. C’est comme si nous avions tous subit une attaque de moralité divine concernant le fait qu’ils font autre chose que de gouverner. La dernière victime de cette moralité démocratique visant le mode de vie somptueux […]
A Big Mac, French Fries And A Coke. Anything Else, Minister?
It is sad really, when ministers who run out of ideas are being persecuted for something else by the country they are trying to govern. It is as if we all have suddenly had an attack of divine morality concerning the fact that they are otherwise engaged. The latest victim of the democratic inquisition into […]
Return Of The Hooligans – Ann Widdecombe In Europe
It was an outburst that initially made me laugh, such was the clumsiness, inaccuracy and frankly vaudeville nature of Ann Widdecombe’s rant at the European parliament. Having heard that she is unrepentant and will not apologize in the least for her pathetic performance that was so out-of-place in Strasbourg, I now not only feel embarrassed […]
Film Review: “Disobedience” – Hashem Help Me!
Film title: Disobedience (2017) Director: Sebastián Lelio Disobedience is a compelling and beautiful film relating the transgression of two women in a more than conservative society run by men and religion. Nothing new you might say, but that is what makes the film even better. It is a drama that anyone can relate to […]
