Born on the Fourth of July

Dave My local Anti-Fascist

I have an acquaintance named Dave who I thought was a friend until I mentioned that I am dissident right, but really an anarch, and questioned his precious democratic party. I thought he was a kind and gentle fellow, that we were friends; I had talked with him at length about a business plan I have for a music venue/restaurant/plant nursery including ca…

Dispatches from Bohemian Splendor

1000 Words: Michael Newberry's "Hymn To The Sun"

What spirit, what angst, what joy, what life, what death, what vision is conjured up in the frozen lake that is our infinite marbled cosmos? Marbled by far flung shifting tides, unknown substances, universal myths, charcoal like debris? Should we even call it ours, this …

45 Years: Then and Now

Claudia, 1978, 10B pencil. For a few months, Claudia was a fellow artist with whom I shared a Dutch fisherman’s house on the dunes, just 30 seconds from the North Sea. Her mother, a famous Dutch writer, mocked my paint-smeared pants. 🙃 Looking back at my drawing of Claudia and comparing it with…

Blowing Away Propaganda

In the over 200 posts I have made on The Stone Age I have done exactly one review of a motion picture, the AI thriller M3GAN. As anyone who has been around here for a more than a minute already knows, I tired of Hollywood’s repeated servings of Globalist propaganda many years ago, and have refused to give them any of my money under those conditions…

Welcome to Absurdistan

Just How Bad is Legacy Media?

In my first year at Time Magazine, I was sitting in the Miami airport with my bf, who had had already a starry career, Moscow, Berlin, White House correspondent, and we were chatting away happily with a couple of women of indeterminate age. I had just escaped snowy London; the house in which I lived had no central heating because my landlady felt that “central heating kills a house”. So I was ebullient and finally, not cold…
