The State of Modern “Medicine”
The following conversation, which happened in Minecraft, is real. Only the names have been changed to protect the retarded. INT. DOCTOR’S OFFICE – A CALLOPE PLAYS SOFTLY IN THE DISTANCE Hello, Doctor. Nice round red nose you’re wearing. Really complements your rainbow wig. > Thank you. You must be...
Caesar and the Eucharist
Let’s talk about the parts no one else talks about, shall we? The people who deny the Real Presence – that is, the Catholic knowledge that when Christ held bread before the twelve and said, “this is my body,” he was not speaking metaphorically or symbolically – don’t really...
Sign of the Times
Spotted this at a little Mom and Pop diner in southwest Michigan. This is how they reserve tables to allow for “social distancing” in accordance with Dollar Tree Hitler’s diktats. It was the only indication anything fake was going on in the world. The table full of good old...
Still Werfen the Flammen
Can’t keep a good man down. Though silenced by the smol brains who run “Big Speech”, Bradford C. Walker is still laying down broad swaths of cultural napalm. “The enemy sucessfully memory-holed the authentic American literary culture, and if not for a pair of accidents–D&D and Star Wars–that hole would have...
Yes, They Really Are That Good
Madmen. They did it. The really did it. Arkhaven is dumping massive amounts of comics onto the internet under a “pay what you want” scheme, and it looks fantastic. Confession time. I was skeptical about Arkhaven’s latest venture. For one thing, I’m not a big comics fan. For another,...

If you are into good fiction written from a classical American perspective, you should add UpstreamReviews to your daily...
Reclaiming the Culture, One Weird Hill At a Time
Wargaming. We don’t talk a lot about it here anymore. Not since I revived War In a Box and launched the best dang wargame channel on YouTube. But let’s go over my new focus a bit. Even those of you who aren’t interested in wargames might be interested to...
Confederacy Ascendant
Been thinking about A Confederacy of Dunces a lot lately. For those who haven’t read it, this picaresque novel by John Kennedy Toole is about a bona-fide dyed-in-the-wool gamma male who bumbles his way through life. He is the kind of guy who goes to movies specifically to hate on...
There Is Still Good In Them…
It’s just buried. Deep. They’ve been suppressed in the past. We can do it again. We can rebuild them. We have the technology. Better than before. ...
A Second Look at the Emperor’s New Clothes
The words hung in the air. “The Emperor has no clothes!” A stunned crowd waited for a heartbeat, then a second, and then swiftly turned on the small boy who dared cry out the seditious phrase. Fists fell, elbows jostled, voices shouted in anger, and feet kicked out with...
