Fire Sail available:

The November drought is broken with the release of Piers Anthony's latest Xanth book, 'Fire Sail.'  Between this, Rave and Dracu Riot I should be well equipped.

The blu-ray release of Crest of the Stars/Battleflag of the Stars is scheduled for Christmas day in Japan.  Hopefully some fan translators will step up to the bat from there and deliver this pivotal work into the English canon.

One of the best series ever featuring one of the most beautiful girls ever deserves a blu-ray release.  It sure took long enough.

It used to be that liberals always won on the cultural front -- drug legalization, LGBT crap, hate speech censorship, single motherhood, no fault divorce, equal opportunity quotas, etc.  But they didn't used to win on the economic front.  Because of that, if conservatives simply steered clear of all controversies, if they ignored all the dumb liberal behavior, it wouldn't impact them.  You could separate from the whole mess and let liberals self-destruct all they wanted.

Now there's no refuge left.  With tax rates set to triple or quadruple or god knows what, all effective sources of energy generation and transportation banned, a wealth tax to confiscate everything you've made up until this point, and new regulations put in place which will make businesses physically incapable of making money, there's nowhere left to run.  Conservatives can't mind their own business because they will no longer be allowed to do business.

We're now at the level of Atlas Shrugged socialism.  The wealthy are being hunted down like game and stripped of all their assets while the entire world is being invited in via open borders immigration and promised free goodies like education, housing and health care.

There's no way we can possibly support the entire world's poor but that's what the Democratic presidential candidates are uniformly promising they'll do.  If they win, expect infinite taxes both of income and wealth, infinite open borders immigrants all of whom will be given infinite free stuff, zero electricity for your homes or gas for your cars, shortages of all manufactured goods including food (remember, they're going to ban all GMO's and all meat for the sake of the environment), a mandatory 'civil service' draft (the revival of the corvee tax), the release of all criminal thugs from their prisons back into your neighborhoods and while we're at it a nuclear war with Russia which will be the end of all life on Earth.  To teach them to 'interfere with our elections' and reclaim the holy land of Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk, which suddenly is America's #1 national security need.

If it had just stayed loony cultural liberalism, transgender 7 year olds and slut pride parades, America could have continued.  The economy could have continued.  Science and technological progress could have continued.  Conservatives could have ignored it all and continued to succeed in life.  But this is an unstoppable tsunami.  This is the apocalypse.  There's no escaping the current democratic platform.  This time it isn't the lives of transgender children on the line, it's our own lives and fortunes.  They're coming directly for us.

If we're foolish enough to passively watch this incoming tsunami we deserve what we get.  If you don't re-elect Trump and a Republican House and Senate then kiss America, and quite possibly the entire world goodbye.
