Ted Bundy: An American Story
Netflix premiered a docuseries on Ted Bundy. What started as private messages on it, snowballed into emails. Bad Billy Pratt of KillToParty and I are sharing the back and forth we had on some of the bigger themes of the Bundy phenomenon. Ryan Landry… Netflix has a new docuseries on the life and crimes of…
Millenials Priced Out + Five Friday Reads 4/26/19
A recent report was discussing how Millenials are skipping the home-ownership thing. Some are not buying. Some are renting pods to live in, and it is all part of that minimalist, cool kid vibe. See, Millenials are about experiences and the experience one can have. This is pure bullshit. Shelter is always needed. What has…
The Other Neo-Orientalism: Traditional Christianity as Viewed in The Modern World
In the wake of the recent Sri Lanka terrorist attacks on various churches on Easter Sunday, leaving nearly 300 dead, and 500 wounded, the response from western media outlets have ranged from passive indifference, to outright offensive takes and victim-blaming (one wonders what possesses certain blue-check Journos to concoct such terrible takes, like outright implying…

The gargoyles do look intimidating and wonderful and the church has that waterfall backside with the support arches to the center. Magnificent. The arc was excellent with…
Towards A New Spiritual Science
By Varūtha Let me start by stating that I am only writing this piece as a follow up to BAP’s analysis of neo-paganism. I am not one for histrionics, nor am I frankly keen on involving myself with the current discourse. However, if there is a hunger for knowledge, for spirit, for metaphysics, then I…
Immigrants Are Assimilating
The last week has seen the return of the liberal outrage over out of context, sharp and effective Trump team messaging. President Trump’s team took an old quote from Rep. Ilhan Omar about 9/11 and turned it into a viral advertisement correctly portraying her and by association the entire open borders left as against America….
Black Anxiety Theater
It has been written that science fiction as a genre reflects our dreams but also our anxieties about current technological trends. Space and aliens gave way to computers and robots run amok. This reflection can be found elsewhere. A trend in films directed at black audiences is the thriller with a white home invader or…
