I want to take a moment to denounce Anglishizers — those in the Anglish movement who assert that the Norman conquest and its linguistic consequences have been a disaster for the English language. These people are fucking stupid, and couldn’t be more wrong. This is an extremely popular Tweet, and was widely screenshotted and shared on a number of forums I post on. In regards to this tweet, to faithfully delatinize you would have to say "hoose" and not "haus" -- if you're going to insist on Anglicization, why choose the post-Norman Middle English pronunciation of words over the traditional Anglo-Frisian one? Probably because it is obvious that "hoos" sounds fucking ridiculous. Anglishizers constantly do this kind of sleight of hand, because they know that Old English is full of ridiculous Dr. Seuss sounding words and they want to delatinize without sounding like a fucking Swede. That really proves that these people are motivated by anti-Latin sentiment more than any love of the ancient language. The fact that they are telling people to say sneedinghouse and not sneedinghoos makes it self-evident that Norman transformation of English changed it for the better. Regardless, the poetry of John Keats, Lord Byron, and Wordsworth is the greatest in history. Even famous poets writing in other languages have said so. If you’ve never seen William F. Buckley interview the Jorge Luis Borges, the titan of Spanish language poetry and literature, it’s worth a watch just for him to explain why he thinks English is vastly superior to his own language: You can make English soft and sexy like a Romance language in seductive sonnets, flowing and dreamlike as a Celtic language, but also give it the sharpness of Germanic ones when needing fury and resentment. English is capable of having dozens of thematic flavors conveying the same idea. Middle English made English a great language of thought, giving it the scientific precision of Latin and letting it further take loans from Greek, enabling English's future transition into the global language of science, engineering, and computing. I’m sorry, but mispronouncing the words of various North Germanic languages to make a millennia-late attempt at delatinizing is fucking cringe. This is like speaking Klingon for people that really hate Catholics. Like any decent American of Protestant stock I too oppose the papacy, but not to such a degree that I’m willing to make myself sound like a fucking retard over it. image

Okay I really didn’t notice for a long time that my client doesn’t seem to support NIP-17 DMs at all. I just started using @Mailstr which I think is the most awesome service on Nostr. I found it by accident, searching for a domain name while building the exact same product. But the DMs didn’t come through. So I pop open a second client that supports NIP-17 DMs and notice that I not only have the messages from Mailstr but some other people who have DM’d me in the past. This is why I have a Session ID in my profile — because DMs on Nostr are a *complete fucking disaster*. There is only one reasonably good UI/UX experience for normal users on MacOS Desktop — @Nostur — and it doesn’t support NIP-17. Imagine talking to a normal person and them being told that they didn’t get the DMs from their girlfriend because there are multiple fucking ways to send a DM on Nostr. This is horrific and I can’t believe there isn’t a concerted push to demand everyone pick whatever a standard is and stick with it. To make this even worse, NIP-17 is also a stupidly broken standard. The spec mentions “optional forward secrecy” but the author doesn’t seem to understand how forward secrecy is achieved or the idea that the phrase actually means something in the context of cryptography (this is maximally cringe). Only 0xchat’s “Secret Chats” or White Noise provide reasonable mechanisms for Forward Secrecy, and they aren’t even NIPs at all. Don’t send me messages via either of these, because they only provide phone apps and I do not use phones. The only way to fix things is to make the situation temporarily worse — create a *brand fucking new* protocol NIP for DMs from someone that understands what “forward secrecy” means and scream at client maintainers until they all implement it. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I’ve figured out how to solve the problem of anti-Semitic terrorism. We just need to put all the good migrants in Jewish neighborhoods, to give them extra protection against the bad migrants. The only way to stop a bad Mohammed is a good Ahmed. image

Recently a longtime associate of mine asked about the origin of the slur "dog brain" which is now used almost exclusively against women. As a longtime connoisseur of rape, misogyny, verbal abuse, and physical violence towards women, I decided to investigate the history of this beloved and alluring term which so accurately describes the female psyche. The insult "dog-brained" first appears in print in 1835, in Robert Montgomery Byrd's The Infidel, Or the Fall of Mexico: "Dog-brained churl and ass" one of the main characters used to rebuke a Mexican. Byrd is a name I recognized from reading his "Nick of the Woods", which is an awesome novel about committing revenge genocide against Injuns that I actually recommend you read if you're into Tom Quick the Indian Slayer portrayed as a emotionally tortured Quaker. I also searched for "dog brain" up until 1835 just to confirm Byrd as the originator of the term as an insult -- every prior usage of dog brain is in reference to actual canine grey matter. Dog brained is then used again by an author of no renown in another novel in 1878, and in a short story in Munsey's Magazine at the turn of the century. It then disappears from publication for decades. It returns as a more pointed insult in the 1970s, used against Communists, "dog-brained bureaucrats of the Soviet Union" in Finis Farr's 1975 "Fair Enough: The Life of Westbrook Pegler" and expliticly misogynistic "DOG BRAINED BITCH!" in a 1979 issue of Denver Quarterly, in reference to an obese and ugly woman. Then it nearly disappears from publication again, besides a single instance in a TV guide in the 80s. Then in 1995 Laurence James under the pseudonym James Axler used the phrase in his "Shadowfall", the 26th book in the Deathlands saga, which is about a postapocalyptic society of eternal road war. From there the most common instance in the phrase is in multiple publications dedicated to FASA's franchise Shadowrun starting with 1998's Psychotrope. As far as I can tell, Shadowrun is the first instance of a society of multiple authors using the term in a small community and likely the body of authors which popularized the term for general usage. After that it reentered the common vernacular and there are a lot of post-2010 uses of the term. As far as I can tell "dog brain" and "dog brains" as a noun used to describe people rather than "dog-brained" as an adjective is a development that came with social media. Dog-brained has its linguistic origins in a documented genocide appreciator and a notable history of being leveled as a term against communists and women, making it extremely based and redpilled. I recommend you use this term more often and also inform those using it about its storied roots in Racial Holy War, woman-hatred, and anti-Communist polemic.

> WASHINGTON, Dec 9 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, callingpostjudicecessor Antony Blinken's decision to adopt Calibri a "wasteful" diversity move, according to an internal department cable seen by Reuters. Many libtards confused on exactly how a font change is a diversity choice. But hardened racists will know that Calibri is a typeface made by an atrocious specimen of a van der Groot. It is a Dutch typeface. And the Dutch, they are not like us! For those uninitiated, MPC has a gigantic symposium titled as such. With this singular move the Trump administration has brought back the Dutch Question, which was last given thoughtful consideration in the 18th century. Hating the Dutch is a time-honored Anglo-American tradition, of course, but we had so many problems from the 19th century onward that we forgot about how we much we despised these low peoples from low lands. This implicit declaration by our Secretary of State that the Dutch are, in fact, a mud race is the most glorious asking of the Dutch Question since the Anglo-Dutch wars. Marco Rubio has singularly cast himself as a great man of history on par with William III for bringing back this particular bit of postjudice. The Dutch are eternal schemers, always a blight upon the pocketbooks and jurisprudence of Anglo societies.

If you read manhua, check out 尸山血海 (A Mountain of Corpses, A Sea of Blood) immediately. Best thing to come out of China since the Buddhist monk arc of “I’m an Evil God”. image

I am not sure I should take a six figure financial position based on vitriolic racism and laughing at low-IQ brown schemers. But, on the other hand, well, you know.

Want to archive these future messes of pottage as the rocket primes. I am strongly considering buying up the entire float just to see brown tears faster.
