To explain a bit better something I made reference to at today's morning meeting: 

You may have heard that that strange object spotted in our solar system earlier this year, the one that looked like a giant rock sliver, has been determined by Harvard scientists to actually be an alien vessel. This is for real -- https://www.cbc.ca/…/mysterious-interstellar-comet-may-be-a…

What Harvard did not determine for us is whom are alien visitors might be, but I can say with some authority that they belong to the alien race of GABATARS, of whom, it turns out, Gab... always seeming a bit -- and I hope this is of no offence! -- feline in appearance to me, is an advance scout. 

Therefore, in an effort to thwart recent trends on how to behave diplomatically... and so actually behave diplomatically, I have asked Dr. Grace Augustine, who literally wrote the book about GABATARS, to help us better understand the meaning behind their diction. 

To start, she wants us to know that when GABATARS say "they feel you dog," they mean more than just that they have some sense of your contour texture, but that they really feel and appreciate your deep core... and they don't really think of you as dogs, whom although they try and be at peace with, do at times end up being speared with their loosed arrows (of this, I have actual video evidence). 

This posted video will help you in understanding of one of the most important of GABATAR utterances, so there are no misunderstandings... so two cultures can come closer to finally being bridged: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-u5SiCCmVv0

Discussion over the fate of Jolenta, at the Gene Wolfe facebook appreciation site

Patrick McEvoy-Halston November 28 at 10:36 AM Why does Severian make almost no effort to develop sustained empathy for Jolenta -- no interest in her roots, what made her who she was -- even as she features so much in the first part of the narrative? Her fate at the end is one sustained gross happenstance after another... Severian has repeated sex with her while she lay half drugged, an act he argues later he imagines she wanted -- even as he admits it could appear to some, bald "rape" -- but which certainly followed his  discussion of her as someone whom he could hate so much it invited his desire to destroy her; Severian abandons her to Dr. Talus, who had threatened to kill her if she insisted on clinging to him; Baldanders robs her of her money; she's sucked at by blood bats, and, finally, left at death revealed discombobulated of all beauty... a hunk of junk, like that the Saltus citizens keep heaped away from their village for it ruining their preferred sense ...

Salon discussion of "Almost Famous" gang-rape scene

Patrick McEvoy-Halston: The "Almost Famous'" gang-rape scene? Isn't this the film that features the deflowering of a virgin -- out of boredom -- by a pack of predator-vixons, who otherwise thought so little of him they were quite willing to pee in his near vicinity? Maybe we'll come to conclude that "[t]he scene only works because people were stupid about [boy by girl] [. . .] rape at the time" (Amy Benfer). Sawmonkey: Lucky boy Pull that stick a few more inches out of your chute, Patrick. This was one of the best flicks of the decade. (sawmonkey, response to post, “Films of the decade: ‘Amost Famous’, R.J. Culter, Salon, 13 Dec. 2009) Patrick McEvoy-Halston: @sawmonkey It made an impression on me too. Great charm. Great friends. But it is one of the things you (or at least I) notice on the review, there is the SUGGESTION, with him being so (rightly) upset with the girls feeling so free to pee right before him, that sex with him is just further presump...

The Conjuring

The Conjuring 
I don't know if contemporary filmmakers are aware of it, but if they decide to set their films in the '70s, some of the affordments of that time are going to make them have to work harder to simply get a good scare from us. Who would you expect to have a more tenacious hold on that house, for example? The ghosts from Salem, or us from 2013, who've just been shown a New England home just a notch or two downscaled from being a Jeffersonian estate, that a single-income truck driver with some savings can afford? Seriously, though it's easy to credit that the father — Roger Perron—would get his family out of that house as fast as he could when trouble really stirs, we'd be more apt to still be wagering our losses—one dead dog, a wife accumulating bruises, some good scares to our kids—against what we might yet have full claim to. The losses will get their nursing—even the heavy traumas, maybe—if out of this we've still got a house—really,...
