Secular Sunday – I Hope Satan Returns To Put Atheists Out Of Their Misery Having To Listen To This Level of Stupidity

My brain hurts that this is one of the “leaders” of the United States… Speaking on the end times, Lauren Boebert said she believes Jesus will return because Satan will beg him to because Christians are out in such “a great force” not because they are “hiding in caves” due to “a government lockdown.” pic.twitter.com/74ApxDWeaM […]

RIP Uncle Stan Nagatani (1940-2022) (and a list of strangely positive things to come out of Covid)

Believe it or not, there have been a few good things to come out of Covid. Here’s a few… * greater acceptance of work-from-home in many sectors * I’d say that it’s caused many people to reassess their work-life balance * many people are also saving money by going out less for restaurants, entertainment, shopping.

Secular Sunday – Suburban Mega-Churches Are Bizarre…

…but I find myself intrigued: I don’t think I’ve fully internalized how frankly bizarre the world of suburban mega churches are. And I’m saying that as somebody who attended one as a kid pic.twitter.com/TRm1DwDaDp — BoHo Chicagoan (@Eric_Erins) November 27, 2022

Music Monday – In Which Jason Programs The Grey Cup Halftime Show…

Nothing against Florida-Georgia Line but it’s right there in the name – no connection to Canada, let alone Saskatchewan. In fact, two of the three performers in the halftime show were American and the third was from Ontario. Why you wouldn’t feature Saskatchewan artists on a giant stage like this boggles my mind. Using a […]

Music Monday – “We didn’t come here on the Mayflower/We came on a ship in a blood red moon/We come in the age’s most uncertain hour/And sing an American tune”

I recently replied to a question on Twitter asking “Who is the most poetic lyricist in music?” by saying I wasn’t sure but Paul Simon is the only one I studied in high school poetry class so… On that note, this is a powerful new take on one of his classics, where he doesn’t sing […]

Secular Sunday – The Positions Modern Religious Republicans Hold Are, Quite Literally, 100% Incorrect

  Think about it. They look at the world through the lens of a religion that is clearly a fantasy. Virtually all their decisions are made looking through that lens. Consequently, virtually all of their beliefs, opinions and decisions are objectively wrong. They reject science in favor of their “faith”, so vaccines are from the […]

Music Monday – “I’m sentimental, if you know what I mean/I love the country but I can’t stand the scene/And I’m neither left or right/I’m just staying home tonight/Getting lost in that hopeless little screen”

Loretta Lynn and Banned Songs

RIP Loretta Lynn. Not sure if its true but I read that this trailblazing songwriter had more of her songs banned from radio airplay than every other male country artist *combined* in the 20th Century.

Secular Sunday – The Longer Lasting Harm of 9/11?

9/11 was caused by religious extremism but an ever-longer lasting harm of this attack is the culture of conspiracy theories that sprang up around the attacks which continues to affect our society in ways ranging from vaccine hesitancy to lack of faith in government to the idea that mass shootings are actually false-flag operations are […]
