And other immigration stories You might remember Scorsese’s mother from the hilarious dinner scene in “Goodfellas”, shown below, where she plays Joe Pesci’s mother. That’s Scorsese’s real mom, and she’s amazing. She also plays a small part in “Casino”. (I didn’t realize it before, but Scorsese’s father also has a brief cameo in “Goodfellas”, as…

A brief comment and nutrition advice When I was still a child, they started rolling a propaganda that “margarine is healthier than butter”. It was obviously bankrolled by margarine producers. To me, even back then, it never made any sense that an artificial concoction with bland taste and bad smell could somehow be healthier than…

Time to wake up There is little we can do about the next developments that are soon coming in the Modern West. From “new pandemics” to “fifteen minute cities” to social credit tied to your bank account, bad things are going to happen, whether we like it or not. Complaining won’t solve anything, and it…

AIDS, Covid and Sex Robots A few days ago, I wrote the following comment at another blog: Kary Mullis (who invented the “PCR test” and died mysteriously just before “Covid”) always said that there is no causation link between HIV and AIDS. And there’s a video of him heavily criticizing Fauci for his management of…

Looking at it from a secular perspective I’ve been thinking about religion lately.
