So. You’ve probably noticed that the blog has been a bit sparse of late, owing to me doing more news-item posts for The Escapist than for here.

Starting today, I’m going to try and change that by doing (when possible) daily summary-posts of news I’ve reported there – please, feel free to comment and chat about them. Note: there will be some “older” stories on this once, since it’s the first:

Addendum to Tuesday’s show: You think Michael Bay is evil? You think TRANSFORMERS movies are civilization on the brink? No. On balance, Michael Bay is harmless. You want to see evil onscreen? Rick Santorum is making movies now:

You want to talk about evil? A feature-length propaganda movie celebrating a culture’s slide back into dark ages barbarism is evil. Agitating AGAINST the improvement and progress of a society via the lessening of the influence of superstition and pointless “moral” self-denial/self-hatred is evil. Advocating for ignorance is evil.

There are two kinds of people in the world. Thinkers and Believers.
