Where Old Razor Blades Go to… Die?

Image result for razor blade disposal slot in an old medicine cabinet

I don’t know about new medicine cabinets in new houses and apartments, but most of the old ones had these slots for razor blade disposal. After all, just because a blade won’t give you a smooth shave anymore doesn’t mean it won’t cut you if you handle it carelessly. So they used to have this slot in the medicine cabinet, and you got rid of an old blade by pushing it into the slot. Out of sight, out of mind.

Where do those blades go? Into some limbo between your walls, probably. And woe, woe, woe betide the careless contractor who remodels a bathroom because he thrusts his hands into a space without first making sure it’s not full of nasty old razor blades.

Think of them piling up back there, year after year, generation after generation: bitter, resentful, even more dangerous now that they’re rusty and dirty, waiting and waiting for payback time…

One contractor reported finding literally thousands of blades in a space between the walls. He used a shop-vac to remove them without giving himself a hefty dose of tetanus–and then had to replace the hose of the shop-vac.

How many old razor blades are lurking in some dark space between your walls?

Yet Another College Requirement: ‘Diversity & Inclusion’ Training

‘Diversity and inclusion training,’ the old-fashioned way

For people who pride themselves on being “pro-choice,” academic leftists excel at dreaming up things that other people must say and do, or else.

At Miami Looniversity, in Ohio, they’ve started a required (you can’t choose not to participate) program of “diversity and inclusion” and “bias training” for all new students, faculty, and staff. Its purpose, LOL, is “to combat bigotry and intolerance.”

Hypocrites. Let’s test your sincerity. If anyone can walk across your campus wearing a “Make America Great Again” cap and T-shirt, without being physically or verbally assaulted, we’ll believe you mean what you say.

Meanwhile, there will be “punishment for those who act in reactionary manners.”

“Diversity” means everybody has exactly the same opinion about everything. And gets punished if they don’t.

Why are we funding these universities with public money? Why are we paying them to turn our children into creepy little Stalinists? We are letting them damage our country with the money that we worked for! And why anyone sends his son or daughter to a public college is way beyond me.

Defund the colleges. Now. Before there’s too much harm to be repaired.

‘Turning Children into Freaks’ (2013)

Image result for images of slime monsters

Was it really five years ago, that the slimy rulers of our culture were already pushing children into the transgender world?

https://leeduigon.com/2013/09/17/turning-children-into-freaks/

I have come to believe that the impetus of this movement is satanic. What else could it be? How does it in any way benefit anybody?

I wonder if you can even be nominated for a National Book Award anymore, unless your book endorses some form of perversion.

 

Prayer Update: Linda

We need to keep praying for our friend Linda Sorci, still gravely ill, still undergoing treatment that takes a lot out of her, making it hard for her to communicate. She did enjoy reading The Silver Trumpet, though: wish I had another book out there for her. Anyway, it’s hard for her to generate an email. The last one I had was a week ago.

Dear Lord Our God, we pray in the mighty name of Jesus: Have mercy on our sister, Linda; deliver her from danger of death, and restore her to our fellowship. Please, Father, save her: in Jesus’ name, Amen.

‘He Will Hold Me Fast’

Here’s another one I never heard before–He Will Hold Me Fast, performed by Keith and Kristyn Getty. The background of calm seas and gentle waves, God the Father’s handiwork, moves me more than I know how to say.

Oops! Comment Contest Adjustment

Well, it turns out Elijah already had all the Bell Mountain books and only wanted to win the contest, so he says thanks, but give the prize to the runner-up. That would be Joshua, who only missed winning by the tiniest of margins.

So, Joshua, let me know which book you want (try not to make it Bell Mountain, I’ve run out of those and have to get more) and provide me with your mailing address.

P.S. to everybody else who would have liked to win: The next comment contest starts… now! Yup, it’s already started. Be the one to post No. 35,000, and win an autographed book. Yes, I know, that’s 2,000 more comments. It only means I’m giving you all plenty of time to get into the game. But don’t everybody just sit around waiting for it to get to 34,500, or it’ll take, like, forever.

Cats Love Printers

Our cats pay no attention whatsoever to our printer. Maybe because it’s not a fancy-schmancy printer like the ones in this video. Cats seem to be fascinated by those.

What would you give to know precisely what was going through a cat’s mind as he studies the printer and ponders his next move?

And Now, Another One…

What have I done, to deserve all these invitations to review preposterous and sleazy romance novels?

Today I’ve been invited to review “a sensual and supernatural journey” featuring a torrid romance between a “dragon king” who is, inevitably, “darkly handsome,” and a “beautiful and mysterious woman”–they’re all mysterious, in more ways than one–with the loopy name of “Arianrhod Deatherage.” Says the perky publicist, who obviously has an abysmally low opinion of my literary taste, “Happily-Ever-After Meets Modern Empowerment in a Steamy New Paranormal Romance.” Lemmeouttahere.

I wonder what effect it has on the brain, to consume vast quantities of books like this. What does their very existence say about our culture?

Nothing good!

Violet Crepuscular come back, all is forgiven.

Media: Kavanagh Should Step Down

Is it a political party or a lynch mob?

Hey, how’s this for a plan? You’re nominated for the Supreme Court, and at the last minute, Democrats dig up this attempted rape charge, no witnesses, no details, not even a time or place, from back when you were a 17-year-old high school kid–and you should step down, go away, surrender, etc.

That’s what Chuck “Free & Independent Press” Todd said on NBC recently (https://www.investors.com/politics/columnists/kavanaugh-accusations-media-bias-brent-bozell/). After all, the serious nature of the allegation just naturally cancels out any consideration of whether it’s true or not.

And so Judge Brett Kavanagh, if he follows this sage advice, should just walk away from his confirmation hearings. And have this unsupported accusation hanging over his head for the rest of his life.  Because it’s such a serious allegation, it doesn’t have to be proved. Just live with it until you die.

Is there anything the nooze media–maybe I should call it the noose media–and the rest of the Democrat smear machine won’t do to keep a conservative off the court? So far they’ve only tried to murder Kavanagh’s character and reputation. It remains to be seen how much farther they will go. Their one and only standard, the only thing they live by, is a lust for power. That is what serves them for morality.

Before anything much good can happen in America, the Democrat Party must be put out of business. Permanently.

Our chance to do that will be in this November’s elections.

 

And the Winner Is—!
