That pretty much sums it up.

I have no idea how a couple of these movies made it into the Oscars for Best Picture this year.

Ford v Ferrari
1917

Oh wait, I lied.

I do have an idea.

They were token nominations to support the new foreign language films that are to come. Anyone want to take a bet that next year it won’t be a foreign language film? $500?

If the Oscars had nominated the typical, insane, feminist, racist, misandristic, gay, transgender, anti-conservative, narratives that they have been for the last 16 or so years, then they would have felt a massive backlash from . . . well, everyone actually.
This way, they only hear it from the rare people, who are able to see through their game.
Most Conservatives will be happy that there were a couple films that got nominated, that weren’t overly insane. They are shocked, actually . . . and I admit, I’m pretty shocked too.
This took a lot of effort from the crazies in Hollywood.

Like the Nevada referendum on the ballot that made recreational marijuana legal, it’s a dual edged sword. Like liquor licenses in Nevada, a marijuana license to grow, sell, or deliver, is a way to print money, and government cronyism is 100% in control.

Yes, you made a couple good films that weren’t completely insane. You win a cookie, and thank you. I enjoyed them both.

“Parasite” is the biggest shit stain on a pair of underwear that’s been worn for the last 20 years.

It’s in a foreign language. It’s slow and boring. The story leads nowhere. The characters are vacuous, criminals. It’s not entertaining. It won an Oscar.

Parasite is actually worse than Moonlight. I didn’t think that was possible for an Oscar winner. The Oscars have really redefined themselves. They aren’t for entertainment or good storytelling anymore, they are just a political group determined to destroy themselves and everyone else, through Communism/Socialism/Leftism using the Democrat Party and self absorbed rich people.

It’s awesome.

Before I start gushing about it, please realize that this is Toy Story 4.

This movie kept up with the usual theme. It was really surprising to see a Hollywood film that wasn’t chock full of Transgenders and gays. Clearly, this film was made by the originals, for the most part, who are out of touch with the rest of Hollywood, and who are on the chopping block.

Thank you to those people, and to the many Hollywood hacks that have to make a living, even when your evil politics hurts everyone.

I remember when I read that “no one knows what is in the center of galaxies.” Then Stephan Hawking was lauded as the guy that figured out that there were probably black holes in the center of all galaxies. It was pretty obvious to me, as a kid.

Now, with all the “dark matter” hysteria, you’d think scientists would be able to make the obvious hypothesis that black holes are the universe’s tectonic plates. Just like the tectonic plates on Earth, recycle the surface of the planet, black holes recycle the surface of spacetime.

The idea that the universe continually expands until it rips apart is dumb. We already know from particle physics, that matter can pop in and out of our known universe, along with antimatter. The same should be true with black holes resurfacing our spacetime. As our universe expands, a timespace vacuum is created that will create matter to fill the expanding void.

We know black holes consume matter, but what offsets that matter consumption? Somewhere, matter is being sucked into the universe. When we find those locations, we’ll have our answer to dark matter. Finding where the matter is coming from, is the key to understanding what dark matter is.

I know that black holes are our subduction and obduction zones in the universe, though no one has really published the idea that black holes aren’t as similar as everyone imagines. Where are our orogenic belts and divergent boundaries for the universe?

The big question remains . . . where is the matter coming from, that is filling the void that is being created by our universe expanding at such a rapid rate? Black holes make matter disappear, but where does matter appear?

My reviews on Google Maps, which is the best mapping platform on the planet, are being wasted, on Google. They don’t pay me, and they are the antithesis of evil in American politics.
I thought that the SW Steakhouse was the best restaurant in Las Vegas . . . but I’d never been there before.
So I went, and took my family.
Here’s how the three-out-of-five-star-meal went:

Both, the Sanuki, Wagyu, and the Filet Mignon were absolutely perfect.
The steak tartar was good.
The Seafood Spectacular was charred, in a way, that gave it a “steak-like” flavor. I didn’t like that, but if you want seafood, go to Lakeside.

I came for the Kobe beef, but they didn’t have it, tonight, and it wasn’t on the menu.

The service was quite good, from the general service staff. Plates were removed promptly and water was kept full.
Hosting was accommodating, even when we showed up an hour early.
I was disappointed with our waiter, Fernando’s service. He seemed to be a down-to-earth person, while on the job, at what I thought to be the best restaurant in Vegas. I expected to have a lot more formality. Instead, he actually tried to talk me out of the most expensive item on the menu, recommending that I try the American Waygu before trying the Japanese Sanuki.

Because it was my Mom’s birthday, I wanted everything to be perfect. I had a flower arrangement ordered for the table, and the Wynn did a perfect job with that. I also had a pre-authorization to pay for everything, and that completely flopped. At the end of the meal, Fernando was unable to find any preauthorization (not his fault, probably). I paid on the spot with a standard bill.

For a three person meal, at over $700 (with the tip), SW Steakhouse was fine. The ambiance was nice and my Mom liked it.

However, there are quite a few places in Vegas that have the same, or better, everything; be it food quality, service, or prices.

Issue:
Men don’t like doing the dishes, after eating.

Solution:
The Sink Urinal
Men can relieve themselves while washing the dishes. It only takes about 1.5 minutes to finish urinating, so the man may only finish washing about two dishes during this time frame, but two dishes is better than no dishes, so women will be pleased at the effort put in.

Additional kickstarter:
The Sink Toilet, which could yield additional dish washing time, due the the longer time frame it takes to take a crap vs urinating.

Issue:
Men are happy not spending few or any hours talking about how they feel
Solution:
Porn Carrot

A dick going into a pussy, in America,  is quite common.  A bullet going into a person’s brain, in America,  is far less common . . . by like, a lot.  When a woman can accuse anyone of rape, with no evidence, and be supported by “The Law,” there is a massive legal and culture problem.  In this case, it’s all about America.

Woman are pussies.  If we can’t agree on that, then you should stop reading this and whine about it to your other “sentient” weirdoes.  Also, if you can’t agree that women are pussies, then fuck you, you worthless piece of shit.  I hope you die soon.

Wow.  That felt good, using those “violent,” Leftist, tactics to shut down discussion.  I understand why it’s so prevalent from the Left and why Antifa loves violence . . . The emotions are exciting.

Any normal guy knows it feels awful to know that another man’s dick went into the girl you care for.  It’s normal biology.  If a dick goes into a pussy, it shouldn’t be up to “the woman,” to decide whether a crime has been committed or not.  Islam understands this.  A woman’s value to society is that she is basically, an emotional and social vessel . . . why again did the US give women the ability to vote?

Women in Muslim cultures know when they have been assaulted . . . which is why there is so little “rape” in those communities.  Why are there “rape” laws in the United States? . . . it’s because the men that make the rules want to repress other men’s lives, so that they can break the rules and get all the pussy that they want.  Men are violence vessels.

I saw Donnie Darko alone, in 2004 on a sliver of land in the Atlantic, in November.  It was cold, windy, and lonely.  It was the perfect film for that night. It was creepy and strange, but had something to say.  I’m not really sure what that was, at the time . . . and I maybe I still don’t, even to this day.

There was a moment that things were clear in the film, and that was a montage with the song Mad World, a cover song for the original by Tears For Fears.  It showed several of the characters in various emotional states.  It was Bradbury melancholy, in sound and video.
Strikingly, a song released in the 80’s, had really struck a chord with Millennials, and maybe even bled into the pre and post generations.  Even the “Gears of War” video game franchise, adopted it in one of their sequels, at the beginning of one of their most popular maps.  The slowed down cover from Gary Jules, is a commentary on our current, American culture.  We can play a video game, with all players controlling an avatar of grotesque violence, that frequently smashes the skulls of opponents or saws them in half, in beautiful 4K, with the quiet song of Mad World as the intro.

I liked the movie, but the song is what really stuck with me.

It reminds me of something like what Phil Connors heard every morning . . . “Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don’t forget your booties ’cause it’s cooooold out there today . . . it’s cold out there everyday.”

The original song had a similar feel.  A feel that no matter how bad things are, there is a positive beat, and that we are all here for another day.

I graduated in the year 2000.  Is my generation feeling extreme dissatisfaction with the status quo, the rat race, and their childhood?  If you don’t get up early, is that bad?  Is it common to know people, but not be able to connect with them, in the way that you want to, or expected to?
If you do get up early, and work hard, are you going nowhere?
Are we unable to feel real emotions, other than apathy and indifference.
Is being sad so horrible and terrifying that we want to die?

Maybe for some of us, but not for me.  It’s songs like this that remind me that no matter how bad that any of us think things are, we chose to be here, up until this moment, and at any moment, we can choose not to be.

That’s pretty empowering, and it’s songs like Mad World, that remind us of that.

Zero of LWRC IC-A5

Long overdue, I just bought my first AR-15.

For all the lovers of the gas impinged design, let me just say, I love Conservatives, and I am one, but only in regard to politics.

Facts:
There isn’t anyone that says LWRC’s M6 is crap.
Everyone agrees that the nickle-boron carrier is pimp.
Fully ambidextrous is a rare thing.

Opinions:
I’ve shot 300 rounds on my new rifle.  My friends from Minnesota tell me that I should spend as much or more on my scope as I did on the rifle.  A $2000+ scope seems a waste to me.  Seriously, we are talking about a device that puts a plus sign or a dot through a piece of glass.  Yes, I could spend $1000 on a tennis racket, but I think I’ll be ok with a $200 one, especially because I don’t play tennis.

I zeroed my scope with a quick release mount from American Defense.  It has a single lever that secures the scope.  It’s actually really awesome to be able to easily switch between open sights and the scope.
Although, with the open sights, I pretty much hit nothing that I wanted (20MOA), at 100 yards.  This was my first attempt at open sights on this rifle, and I have not made any adjustments on the open sights.  I’ll zero them at 50m on another date.

The manual says after 1000 rounds, I should clean it.  That’s one fifth of the barrel life.
I did see some some build up on the front of the rifle, where the piston system expels gas.  It looked exactly like the carrier would look after a couple hundred rounds through a direct impingement system, except it wasn’t in a place that matters.  I think I could burn the barrel before I would get any malfunction.

I’m so happy that this was my first AR rifle.  I couldn’t do any better for what I wanted.
The AK is obsolete.
