Now that I’ve explained why conspiracism is not an accurate way to understand various processes and agendas playing out in the world today, I’m not going to explain the logical errors with the conspiracist mindset in a general sense. Again, I don’t deny that conspiracies among powerful individuals exist and occur regularly. The issue is with making conspiracy foundational to one’s interpretation of the world and the belief that world events have been preplanned and are being orchestrated by a grand conspiracy. (more…)

Joseph Campbell, the famed teacher of comparative mythology, was born on this day in 1904. For many people, including yours truly, he has served as a “gateway drug” into not only a new way of looking at myths, but into a non-materialistic way of viewing the world. And although as a public figure, Campbell mostly remained apolitical, evidence from his private life indicates that he was at least nominally a “man of the Right.” (more…)

If you’ve had anything to eat in the last few years, surely you’ve experienced sticker shock. I knew there was something up when I couldn’t do a modest grocery run without my pocketbook being lightened by over two hundred bucks. As for restaurant food, even proletarian chow like burgers and fried chicken is starting to become rare indulgences for anyone without a comfortably bougie income. What’s up with that? (more…)

What if one of the greatest sporting movies ever made was about a sport that doesn’t exist? Director Norman Jewison’s Rollerball has just passed its half-century, coming out as it did in 1975. It was based on a 1973 short story, Roller Ball Murder, written by William Harrison for Esquire magazine. Harrison also wrote the film’s screenplay. (more…)

As a child, I was fascinated by the collection of old English coins my grandfather kept in a box to remind him of better monetary times once the nation had turned to decimal coinage in 1971, as a preparatory measure for joining what was later to become the EU. The old £sd tokens were all much nicer-looking, better designed, and more pleasingly chunky and substantial than their decimal successors, but the way their system actually fitted together was utterly incomprehensible to me.

Brood parasitism describes a fascinating behavioral pattern in the animal kingdom in which a parasite species manipulates a host species into raising and feeding its young. As an evolutionary strategy, it’s highly effective since it relieves the parasite from having to expend resources doing it themselves. In one case, various species of cuckoo will lay eggs in the nests of, say, warblers or magpies, so their chicks will be hatched and fed alongside the host chicks despite differences in egg size and color.
