The Right Way to Play Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen

Leave a reply

Are you in a hurry to get to Deoxys in the Switch version of FRLG? Don’t worry, I’ve got a suggestion for a team to get you there!

The best way to enjoy these classics would be to play through with pokemon that you like. But if you’re the kind of person who would like to speed through the game with the most practical options, then this guide was made to help you.

The best team for a quick playthrough of FRLG would be a core of two Pokémon which have great synergy, and either can defeat many opponents.

While some players may find it strange to not play through with a team of 6 battlers, the core of two works as well as it does because of how EXP distribution works in old Pokémon games. Where EXP allocation is strict, that EXP that you get from battles spreads far more generously among two battlers than among four or six.

It’s better to have two battlers that can carry you through the game than to have six that struggle.

The rest of the Pokémon are for utility purposes, but the team leaves room for up to two of your favorites that you might insist on having, such as Raichu, if you like that one.

The choice of starter would be Squirtle. The reason why it’s a practical choice is because it does well against early opponents until you have the core team assembled. And once you do, it can still provide mobility in the long-term because it has access to HMs such as Surf, Strength, and Rock Smash.

Just be warned that if you pick a different starter, you’ll have to seek out different Pokémon that can learn these TMs.

At the outset, catch a weak pokemon on Route 1, and don’t level it. Just leave it in a box until you’ve defeated five trainers on Nugget Road. There will be a sixth before you cross. Rather than face him right away, first box your entire team except for this pokemon, then buy things at the PokeMart until you’re nearly out of money. Then, with only your weak pokemon in your party, repeatedly face that last trainer on Nugget Road, and repeatedly lose. Each time you do, you’ll get another Nugget from him.

I suggest going at this at least 32 times, with 48 to be safe. The reason being, once you get to Celadon City, you can straight up buy the coins you need to buy some TMs at the Game Corner. The important ones being Thunderbolt and Ice Beam, with Flamethrower being helpful.

Once you’re done, get your normal team back out, and get back to beating the guy. Depending on how long you’ve been going at it, you can get a lot of money, as each Nugget sells for 5000 pokedollars each. You might spend the rest of the game loaded.

On Route 3, you can catch a Spearow. There are other routes where you can catch a Spearow. The main point is getting one to trade for a Farfetch’d in Vermillion City. It’s purpose on this team isn’t for battling. It can learn Cut and Fly, making it easier to travel about.

Clefairy can be found in Mt. Moon. As soon as you find it, you can evolve it using a Moon Stone you can find in Mt. Moon.

Clefable is one of the two core Pokémon on this team. For one thing, it has high stats for the point in the game in which you can find it. What’s more, it can learn Mega Punch and/or Mega Kick from the move tutors which can be found just outside Mt. Moon’s exit. But if you prefer to preserve Move Tutor uses, you can skip them. Just know that Clefable might have trouble carrying your team for a little while.

But when you get to Celadon City, things really pick up. If you took advantage of the Nugget Bridge exploit, you may already have the resources to teach Clefable Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, and maybe also Flamethrower. In gen 3, the Bolt/Beam combo provides unresisted coverage, which is why many competitive sets of that era had Thunderbolt and Ice Beam. Including Flamethrower as well is generally overkill, but you can go for it if you like.

Clefable’s main weakness is Fighting moves, but the next Pokémon deals with those.

Abra can be encountered in grass just outside of Nugget Bridge. It only knows Teleport, so the best strategy for catching it might be to throw a ball, and see whether it works. Once you have one, it doesn’t learn moves by itself until it evolves at level 16. But once that happens, Kadabra learns Confusion, and becomes an offensive powerhouse for much of the rest of the game. And it learns better moves by level. Kadabra is fast and hits hard, and might wipe out most opponents that you face before they can even make a move. Just be warned that Kadabra can’t take it as well as it can dish it out, especially when it comes to physical moves. That aside, it can easily carry your team. If the opponent is a Poison type or a Fighting type, Kadabra is likely to just wipe it out.

If you can do a trade then trade-back, you can evolve Kadabra to Alakazam. While Kadabra can get you through the game just fine, Alakazam works basically the same, but with higher stats.

So, there you have it! The battling core of Clefable and Kadabra, with Farfetch’d helping with mobility, can get you through FRLG easily. There are two other spaces on the team, which you can fill up with other Pokémon you like.

Here are some popular choices, and why they work well:

Nidoking can be obtained early with a Moon Stone. Because you can find two Moon Stones at Mt. Moon, there need not be a conflict between both these early-game bruisers. The difference is, Clefable becomes more useful at about the same point that Nidoking’s usefulness starts to diminish.

Jynx can be obtained by trading a Poliwhirl at Cerulean City, and is relatively strong and can learn Ice Punch early on.

Lapras has great bulk and can learn diverse moves. The catch is that it comes late in the game at a somewhat low level. So if you play Lapras, it’s gotta catch up.

Starmie has great typing, is fast, and can learn many moves. Its pre-evolved form, Staryu, is in LeafGreen and not FireRed. Thus, FireRed players who don’t trade would miss out on this one.

Zapdos can be obtained at a high level with a trip to and through the Power Plant. It’s very strong, but be careful, because it’s weak to Ice moves that Water types often have.

So, is it worth it?

That depends on your perspective. Deoxys doesn’t change forms in gen 3 the way it does in later generations. Instead, its form depends on the version it’s in. In FireRed, Deoxys has super-high attack stats and speed, but paper-thin defenses, to the point that a weak move might easily beat it. In LeafGreen, its stats are more balanced, but tends more towards its defenses.

If you’re looking for post-game Pokémon that are strong and tough, then it might be better to go for the Lugia and Ho-oh that are on Navel Rock. And, of course, the Mewtwo that’s in Cerulean Cave.

That’s where that path leads.

At any point along the way, the guy in the picture about could have figured out that his religion was wrong, and he was letting his mouth write checks that his butt couldn’t cash. But nope, he followed his arrogance all the way to it’s conclusion.

If Hell is real, that’s where Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, is currently doing anything but chilling. Or having any amount of fun. But he’ll have plenty of time to argue with Muhammad about how they got into the mess that they’re in.

Let’s not kid ourselves, here. A sincere belief in Islam is the reason why Khamenei got his keister blown up. Yeah, one can point out that most Islamic world leaders aren’t like that guy. But though I don’t know for certain what they might be thinking, most of them don’t seem to sincerely believe their professed religion, whatever it is that they might publicly say. If they did, the world would probably be engulfed in bloodshed.

What made Khamenei different is that he actually believed his own bullshit. To give you an idea of his own misguided sincerely, he believed that the Islamic messiah would follow a specific route after coming to earth. He wanted to build a superhighway to expedite this hypothetical trip. This would not be a pragmatic reason to allocate massive resources, but this was a megaproject that he wanted to fund.

The guy also had a passionate hatred of Jews, and the state of Israel. Like most such people, it definitely was not because he was thinking for himself. It was because of his religion. According to Islam, Muslims are supposed to become the only religion, and in the days leading up to that, Jews couldn’t hide behind rocks, because the rocks themselves would tell Muslims to kill the Jews attempting to hide behind them.

I’m gonna show my hand and just admit that I’m no foreign policy expert. No surprise there, right? Yet, even from the position I’m in, I can say with confidence that forming foreign policy based on a hatred for Jews just because of a 7th century child molester is insane.

Yet, this was what was motivating Khamenei, to the point of being the number one state sponsor of terror, and wanting nuclear weapons to threaten anyone who might see his insanity as such. And it didn’t exonerate him that he repeatedly attacked Israel, even though he stood no chance of winning. Or that he hyperinflated Iran’s currency just to fund his war machine.

There’s a reason you don’t want your country to be run by a religious fanatic whose spirituality makes no sense. Any decision that he’ll make won’t be what’s good for you. It will all be for whatever satisfies his religious conpulsions.

And in Khamenei’s case, those compulsions included fanatical hatred, not just for Jews, but also for any Muslim who doesn’t belong to the sect that he was running. And yes, some Muslims view other Muslims as infidels, a fact that has made the Middle East the mess that it is.

So, now that Khamenei is done and dusted, the IRGC’s new head fanatic is Ayatollah Arafi:

Oh.

Was. He was the Supreme Leader. For a few hours. I guess that that job has a high turnover rate, now.

Personally, I knew that the Ayatollah was dead the moment that Americans started moving military assets, including aircraft carriers, to the region. I think about the amount if resources it takes to move such assets, and I have my doubts that they’d do that for nothing.

Of course, the fact that Iranian protests swept the country and the IRGC didn’t immediately crush them as one might expect communicates that they couldn’t. Under such circumstances, it’s easy to tell that any tyrant’s days are numbered.

Because the IRGC was pissed off and has more weapons than sense, they started firing missiles at other countries, and even attacked French assets, even though they weren’t involved. Once again, those who insisted that it would be okay if the IRGC had nukes look stupid, and we have yet more proof that they don’t have an opinion that’s worth listening to.

There’s something fascinating about the timing of Khamenei’s death. It came right before the Jewish observance of Purim. Purim would be a celebration of the fact that the Jews survived an attempt by a genocidal madman to wipe them out, because the Persian king helped to thwart his scheme. You can read more about it in the book of Esther, which is in the Bible.

GameFreak reveals Pokémon Winds and Waves

Leave a reply

During today’s Pokémon Presents, GameFreak officially revealed the Winds and Waves versions, set for release sometime in 2027.

Trailer:

They cooked. And boy, did they.

Say goodbye to the grainy cliffs and landscapes of Paldea (unless you still want to play it, which is your choice). Because these new games look gorgeous.

And not just the landscapes, it seems the oceanfloor itself is explorable. Which was a thing in the Hoenn games, but those ones were a bit more limited.

The trailer revealed the new protagonists. But here’s the official art:

Definitely an adventury look. The appearances differ by version. I like the designs in the Waves version more, even if they remind me of Walmart.

There are new starters, as well, named (left to right) Browt, Pombon, and Gecqua:

Based on the above pic, I’d say that my choice might be irrelevant, as I’d probably just box it right after catching something else. They’re just so unappealing.

But here’s the official art for them:

Much, much better. That’s why your anime-style game should have outlines. For one thing, so it looks like an anime. But also so it doesn’t look uncanny. I’d probably go with the bird.

People are already factioning up by version and starter. But being a fanatic, I’ll probably get both versions, and somehow obtain each starter.

But here’s why I’m not getting too hyped: The games release in 2027. That’s a ways off. It’s great to know that they’re willing to put the time into this one to make sure it turns out great.

So, there might be a bit of a dry spell as far as Pokémon releases go, aside from Champions and re-releases like FRLG and XD. But after that, there’s going to be a lot of water.

Fake Christians are easy to spot, actually.

Leave a reply

I’ve pointed out before that one of the reasons why Americans are so susceptible to propaganda is because they haven’t been taught to recognize it. It’s a sad side effect of having an establishment that insists on propagandizing them. For the people who propagandize them to teach them to recognize propaganda would be a self-defeating endeavor.

So, there are people running amuck on social media, beguiling the less based Americans by influencing them, easily using translators to create the appearance that they reside in the same country as they do.

And in some cases, they’ll wear the pretense of Christianity as a skinsuit, knowing that there is a high potential to deceive people by taking on the appearance of their religion.

But these people tend to give themselves away in some subtle ways. And once you know what they are, it’ll become far more easy to notice them.

The first giveaway is huge to the point that I’ve decided to place it first, so it will be less likely that you’ll miss it. And it’s important that people know about it, because we see a whole lot of this on social media.

It’s an eagerness to try to use Biblical sounding teachings in an effort to try to get you to do what they want. This is huge, and a massive giveaway, because it says a lot about where the faker’s mind actually is, spiritually speaking.

In their thinking, religion is about manipulating people. And the value of a religion to them is in how they can use it to get other people to do what they want. It’s particularly ironic if they call any other religion a cult, because a cult leader thinks exactly the same way that they do.

One topical example is when they present the verse in which the Israelites are told not to vex foreigners. This is usually presented with an implication, which does a lot of work, that Christian societies are supposed to accept unchecked mass migration and open borders. Conveniently, it absolutely ignores every verse which expresses that anyone who travels to the land of Israel is expected to assimilate, to the point that they are expected to observe the weekly Sabbath, and the penalty of death for certain sins also applies to them.

Why leave out such important information? For one thing, they might not actually be aware of what the Bible says. Another possibility is that they know what the Bible’s teachings are outside of the verse that they present, but don’t want you to come to any conclusion besides the one that they want you to come to.

In either case, they’re not someone whom you would want to turn to for advice on how to run a Christian society, or make serious decisions on how to run your life or your household. And that they don’t know their Bible very well might just be the giveaway that they might not actually be a Christian.

And there are a lot more forms of this. A lot more. A lot of it comes down to, “be nice, because your religion says so” or “give me stuff, because of how you probably misunderstand a verse”. It’s easy to see through the agenda, and you’ll be less likely to fall for it if you have an understanding of your Bible.

The next giveaway is in how they use the imagery that’s often associated with the Crusades. If you’re a Christian, then you probably view the Crusades in the same way that I do: It was unfortunate business, but ended up being necessary in order to prevent the world from being plunged into spiritual darkness. And some Christians present the imagery that’s associated with the Crusades to try to get a rise out of Muslims, because they know that the Islamic world is still pretty bitter about them.

But, suppose a Muslim wanted to attempt to take on the appearance of Christianity. Oftentimes, they would attempt this by taking on the imagery of the Crusades.

Initially, one might think that they would be repulsed by the thought, as this would seem offensive to Islamic sensibilities. And it would be. After all, the Crusades were a conflict in which Christianity, after enduring centuries of Islamic oppression where two-thirds of the Christian world was conquered, started fighting back, and took back Christian lands in mere decades.

And yet, Muslims who want to take on the appearance of Christianity would take on the imagery of the Crusades. But why?

It’s because the Crusades were the one aspect of Christian history that Muslims can better identify with. Islam is, at it’s core, a supremacist ideology that is obsessed with military expansion. While Muslims may hate the Crusades because they were one way that the Christian world fought back against the Islamic world, they don’t disagree with it’s methods, and it’s something that they wish that they could have instead done to Christianity, if given the chance.

In Islamic thinking, the value of a religion is in its ability to take over the world through conquest. So, while Muslims hate what the Crusades did to them, they still appeal to their sensibilities. If they were to attempt to mimic Christianity, it’s natural that they’d gravitate towards what most appeals to them.

Another giveaway is Jew hatred. And this is a strong one, because hatred towards the Jews by Christians is rare, and has no Biblical justification for it. And considering that it’s the background of Jesus himself, it would be completely irrational.

However, for Muslims, it’s coded into their religion, to the point that the typical sincere Muslim is obsessed with it.

In fact, if it’s a simple litmus test to see whether someone is a fake Christian that you want, try to pivot the conversation to Jews in any way, and see how long it takes for them to start sperging out.

Again, there’s no Biblical justification for hatred towards the Jews. However, for fake Christians, deviant theology tends to favor hatred for the Jews, and much of it is pretty irrational and in stark disregard for clear Biblical teachings that don’t leave any room for misinterpretation.

Oftentimes, they’ll point to the Jews that called for the execution of Jesus, and Pilate’s response to them. Those Jews insisted upon it, to the point that they’d be willing to accept the guilt for their children, and their successive generations after them. And Pilate “washed his hands” to proclaim his innocence of what he was about to do.

The problem is, this ignores the clear Biblical teaching that each person is accountable for their own sin. Pilate was guilty of what he did, regardless of his own insistence of innocence. And the crowd of Jews didn’t have any ability to cast guilt onto their descendants for what they themselves were guilty of.

The fact is, a person doesn’t have any ability to cast guilt for their own actions onto another human being, as if to gather all their guilt into some kamehameha wave so someone else is guilty instead. The idea that a person could is counter to Biblical teachings about how sin and guilt is handled, which Christians have applied to how they handle justice for millennia.

In fact, it’s a basic Christian teaching. So basic, that if someone claims to be Christian and doesn’t get it, they either don’t understand the Bible very well, or they aren’t actually a Christian, at all.

But that’s not all that they either overlook or just ignore. They also tend to downplay that Jesus himself was Jewish. In fact, he could probably be called the most Jewish man who ever lived. The first of the four gospels makes the point that he was a physical descendant of King David. And out of all Jewish people who ever lived, he was easily the most famous, and it’s not even close. And when you know that Moses was not Jewish (he was a Levite), you know that Jesus has no competition in that regard.

What’s more, Jesus’ followers were almost exclusively Jewish. He had as many as thousands of them following him around at one point. And of his many Jewish followers, he chose 12 of them to be his disciples. And later, Paul would be Jewish, too.

If it weren’t for Jews, you wouldn’t have Christianity. And Christians know that. So when someone says that they’re Christian and hates Jews with a passion, they’re showing their hand. Oftentimes, it just comes down to someone trying to use your religion to manipulate you into doing what they want. And you’ll be less likely to fall for it if you have a strong Scriptural understanding.

While there are other ways that fake Christians make themselves evident, those are the big ones. What one can look out for is whether they appear in a manner that’s suspiciously image focused, or they get some basic things seriously wrong, particularly in ways that they wouldn’t if their understanding of the Bible were consistent with someone who has actually studied it with the intention of properly understanding matters that it teaches.

I might come back and add more some other time.

I finally got Zygarde to its 50% form in Pokémon GO. It broke me.

Leave a reply

I’ve heard it said that Pokémon GO is a kid’s game. It is not. If we were to accept that, then we would also be accepting that children would be walking dozens of miles in a week while playing a geolocating smartphone game.

That’s what would be happening if the child were to attempt to change Zygarde’s form in Pokémon GO.

Obtaining Zygarde itself is easy. All you have to do is complete a few simple research tasks in-game, and you’ll be practically gifted Zygarde. The catch is, it’ll be in its 10% form. Which works as a starting point if the idea is to earn its stronger forms.

But then there’s the way you change it’s form. If you, the person reading this, happen to be the person who decided how Zygarde should change forms in Pokémon GO, you should be defenestrated. You’re a monster.

Zygarde can change forms after the player collects cells from routes. Routes take an explanation, but to keep it succinct: it’s a pathway between pokestops and/or gyms, in which certain Pokémon may appear if the player follows them. And near the end of each route, a Zygarde cell might appear.

Or not. It’s random whether a cell appears. Sometimes, your real-life effort is rewarded with nothing. Which makes this game a lot more realistic than I’m comfortable with, to be honest.

Each route can reward one (or no) cell per day. The maximum that a player can obtain per day is three, and a player can continue playing routes until they reach that number. Routes are usually a few hundred meters in length.

By now, you’re probably starting to figure out the hell that Pokémon GO puts players through just to collect enough cells to change Zygarde’s form. Now, consider how many cells that it takes to get Zygarde to 50% form: fifty of them.

Okay, that’s consistent with the main games, where it takes 50 cells to reach 50% form. True to lore. And it would take a minimum of 17 days to reach 50% form, provided the player went at it passionately.

But then there’s my experience.

When I first started hunting Zygarde cells, I was living in an apartment building. The closest route was on the bottom of the hill, so it took some effort to get to it. When I did, it was usually because I was going for a walk, anyway.

So, I had realistic access to just one route. One cell per day, if any. Except, I was busy. I worked a lot of overtime. So, it was usually more like one (or no) cell per week. And that’s assuming that I even bothered. Because, let’s be honest here, routes is an incredibly lame feature.

By the time I moved out of Stonerville and into a bigger place, I only had around 25 cells. But, there were more routes near my home. So, I decided to go for 50% Zygarde. Usually a few routes per week. I wasn’t being overly serious about it.

Not until the home stretch. Up to 47 cells. Only 3 more to go. There’s were 5 routes nearby that I could reasonably do. I was excited, because I could possibly get them in one day!

So I went for it. Five routes in one day. Only got one. It was as though the game knew I was close, and decided to be stingy, to spite me. I went home and got a drink. I felt like I needed it.

Next day, it was two to go. After getting home, I hastily downed dinner, ready to go for the other two. I had five routes to swing at them.

And only got one. Again. Leaving me with one to go. I went home and drank, again. Not because I felt like it. In fact, I didn’t feel like much of anything. The experience broke me.

Why is this game so cruel? Is it so much to ask to get a consistent reward so that we don’t get our hopes up if it doesn’t work out?

A new day. One more to go. I got it on the first route. I went home and drank some more. To celebrate, I suppose.

I wish I could feel like I won. People who complain about Genshin Impact don’t know just how good they have it. If the game disappoints them, at least they were sitting down to play it. It’s not like Genshin Impact disrespects their real-life efforts.

But then there’s Pokémon GO. It’s as though the game makers just didn’t care.

Hello, elephant. I see you there, taking up all that space in the room. This is the point where I get around to addressing you.

Zygarde 50% form. That implies the existence of a Zygarde Complete Form. Can you guess how many cells it takes to get to it?

You might guess 50 more cells. That would be reasonable to extrapolate from the fact that it took 50 to reach 50% form (even though we started from 10% form, and therefore sould have only needed 40 to reach 50% form).

And that would also be consistent with the main games, where achieving Complete form took 100 cells total.

But then, we’d be assuming that Niantic cared about Pokémon lore, or could do simple fucking math.

To bring Zygarde to Complete form takes 200 more cells. That’s in addition to the 50 that it took to upgrade from 10% to 50%. So, 250 cells total.

I don’t know who decided to make the requirement that many cells. But I imagine that they have a statue of them somewhere in Eastern Europe, which is frequented by people who are unironically grateful that he made children starve a few decades ago.

So, am I going to go for Complete form?

What do you think?

The trans mass killer count has just incremented by one. Again.

Leave a reply

It was just days prior that the previous trans shooter, the one in British Columbia, went 41% and took a few normal people along with [pronoun]. Now, we have another one.

This time, it’s a shooting which took place at a Pawtucket, Rhode Island youth hockey game.

The killer, himself in his 50s, did the typical trans killer thing and decided to not give a care that kids were present for his final atrocity.

Fifty-seven-year-old Robert Dorgan has joined the growing list of trans mass killers:

At this point, the apparent motivation is a dispute within the killer’s family, who were his main targets. Thus, his trans identity seems to not be a primary motivation for the shooting. However, the characteristic lack of impulse control is noteworthy.

The following picture is floating around, which is said to be the suspect:

Of the many photos I’ve seen so far, it seems the guy is a body builder. The vibes he gives off are reminiscent of that one guy from FF7. You might know who I mean.

If “PostOp” in the pic above means what I think it means, then he’s probably undergone the life-ruining surgery. It tends to be those who go all-in in such a way that go full-on dead-ender.

As an ironic twist, it seems the guy may have been a groyper:

Also, notice how he has an SS tattoo:

All this paints a picture of an extremely confused guy. And it seems his wife didn’t approve:

And why would she? Robert Dorgan became a man who couldn’t be respected. His marriage fell apart, and it’s obvious why.

Yet another trans mass killer. It’s becoming such a frequent occurrence that I’m wondering just how soon it will be before it happens again.

Seems they prefer murderous imbeciles, now.

Okay, I’ll write one about this. It’s been on my mind for hours at this point, and I’ve spent much of that time staring into space.

Think about what you’ve probably been fighting for, if you’re from my generation. You’ve probably spent years doing the smart thing, preparing for it, because the idea has been drilled into your mind that that’s the smart thing to do. All while the government has been raping you of your value and giving it to people who don’t produce a damn thing.

While you’ve been fighting to avoid destitution, the idiots have been bumping into each other, faxing up more of themselves. And do they appreciate what they have? Not if they’re like Arnold Oforiwaa.

He’s the intellectual dead-end who got peeved because his girlfriend was giving more attention to her newborn than to him. So he stabbed her 258 times.

Once is too many.

Then, he filmed the mother as she was bleeding to death. But he wasn’t done. He then took a selfie of himself with the child, who was covered in it’s mother’s blood.

The killer should be sentenced to death. And the sentence should be carried out with haste. Rid the world of such wickedness. That’s the only correct punishment for such a disgusting crime.

But another crime occurred. A Dutch court sentenced him to a mere 5 years in prison. The reasoning? Arnold Oforiwaa had a very low IQ.

Apparently, it was decided that a complete blithering dumbass is just the kind of person a Dutch court wants in society. Otherwise, why would it be considered a mitigating factor in an outrageous murder?

So then, a judge at The Hague decided to give someone who was criminally insane a slap-on-the-wrist sentence, and not rob him of the opportunity to potentially stab a Ukrainian refugee in the neck in a subway, or something.

The child survived, by the way. There’s pretty much no chance the child is going to live a normal life.

Now, I’m going to get a little into why stories like this are personal for me. Years ago, some psychopath set fire to an apartment building I was living in, in an effort to get back at some people who were living on the top floor. There were 14 residents in the building total, including myself. We all could have been killed, but we all escaped unharmed, though we were displaced.

The arsonist was arrested. I spectated at his trial. The judge found him guilty, and sentenced him to surrender a DNA sample, so he could be identified if he was a suspect in a future crime.

And that was it. The guy who displaced a bunch of people, who he attempted to murder, was free to go. Then, months later, he would go on to rob a gas station.

If it sometimes seems like judges want irredeemable psychopaths and the criminally insane to walk free, it’s because they do.

Years after that, I decided to go to school for electronics, because that seemed like the smart thing to go for, and therefore had to be something that pays well in the long run.

I studied hard. I took a calculus course that I didn’t have to. I graduated with honors. I have no student debt.

And yet, I’m still barely getting by. And you know why? It’s because society doesn’t actually want smart people. If it did, it would at least pay us better.

But nope. The government just wants to give dumbasses money, while the revolving door legal system guarantees that they’re a danger to the rest of us.

I kinda thought that producing value would mean that society would want me. But I guess it doesn’t. I’m radicalized, now.

Another trans school shooter.

Leave a reply

It happened, again. The natural consequence of indoctrinating children into the trans cult, affirming their delusions on an institutional level, giving them hormones that they’ll piss into the water supply (screwing up more people and animals), and convincing them that anyone who might disagree with them are [pejorative adjective of choice] and deserving of death.

This time, it happened in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Ten people dead, 25 injured. The shooter among the dead, because he joined the many who went 41%.

Canadian mounties didn’t want to name the suspect for “privacy reasons”, probably because 17-year-old Jesse Strang was an MtF stinkditch, and didn’t want yet more negative attention to come to the AIDS that is killing western civilization.

Interestingly, a Reddit post by Strang was criticized by Matt Walsh three years ago. If you haven’t heard of Matt Walsh, he’s a conservative influencer who is regularly lambasted by his own political faction for his ignorant takes on entertainment media.

Warning: Anime is about to derail another conversation.

In the post, Strang expresses a desire to stop comparing himself to anime characters, because they are more petite than him. To out-of-touch boomers, it was the anime that set off alarm bells, rather than the delusion, because in their minds anime and manga are the different scary thing.

We should know the obvious fallacies of the parties involved, so I won’t labor the points, too much. To keep it succinct:

  • A disproportionate number of transgender people have problems with parsing reality independent of fictional constructs,
  • Transgenders also tend to somehow avoid all the anime depicting determined protagonists who work hard to make their dreams come true, and thus would make excellent role models,
  • Derpy boomeroids also avoid positive role models in entertainment media, cherry picking negative role models in an effort to unfairly portray the different scary thing in a negative light,
  • The obvious fucking point that anime and manga are just for entertainment, and not intended to influence a person’s worldview. Our parents should teach us this as kids. What are we doing?

Oh yeah, there’s also the fact that the right usually touts anime and manga as the based alternative to western entertainment, because anime and manga are usually made without any desire to make a political statement, by people whose sincere desire is to make entertaining products.

For more proof that Japan is based, consider the fact that, just days ago, Japan’s right-wing party (called Liberal Democratics, go figure) just won a huge supermajority on a referendum on foreign migration after a bunch of Muslims openly disrespected Japanese culture.

This was a huge defeat for leftists, not just in Japan, but on a global scale, as it’s yet another indication of the right-wing backlash against globalism and mass migration of Muslims.

See what I mean? Japan is based!

But as for Canada, a failure to instill proper virtues has resulted in another element in the astroturfed perversion movement to flip out and go murder ‘tard.

There should be a punishment for anyone who succeeds in a deliberate attempt to make a person go under the knife to become trans. We can’t have people going around tricking children into having their genitals removed.

So, what I propose is this: If anyone convinces anyone else into getting their genitals removed, a possible punishment can be to have the same happen to the person who convinced them.

If you trans kids, then your cock is on the chopping block.

Returning to the matter at hand, I strongly doubt that Jesse Strang had come up with the idea to go trans all on his own. I suspect that there was a handful of doctors, psychologists, and educators who had an influencing role in his delusion. They might be messing with other kids, and it would be great if they decided to stop doing that, considering the tragedy that has too often followed the delusion that they’ve enabled.

This is just sad.

This is more common than you might think. And a lot more than it should be.

The sheriff of a major city could not name the three branches of American government. And when told what they are, he incorrectly guessed which one his position was in.

The city would be Charlotte, the same city where the revolving door justice system resulted in the death of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska. So, we’re getting a look at the minds that are considered leadership in a city where the criminally insane are given ample opportunity to commit random homicide.

It can be quite horrifying just confidently a person can answer when they don’t know what they’re talking about, especially when it’s their job to know it.

See for yourself:

“This was not where I was anticipating getting stuck.” That delivery. It’s the moment that you realize that the person you’re talking to should not have gotten a passing grade in any Civics class.

Again, the guy wasn’t even able to name the three branches of government (legislative, executive, and judicial), and when told what they are, he incorrectly guessed the one he was in (executive). It may be understandable if a person might guess that a sheriff is in the judicial branch, but he himself is a sheriff. What’s his excuse?

As I see it, it’s an expected consequence of the education system. The fact is, teachers in the K-12 system are state employees who don’t much care, and the system is designed to get you to pass if you put in even minimal effort.

You might have noticed that in high school, there are multiple levels of the same class, categorized something like C, B, A, and AP (or Honors). For example, World History A, or Biology AP. Passing any class is basically like passing any similar class of a different level.

So, in the long run, there’s no difference between Biology C and Biology A. If you were put in Biology C, it’s possible that they ran out of room in the other Biology classes, because the current year’s students are just so smart. But it’s more likely that they either think you’re stupid or that you just don’t care. In any case, they probably just don’t want to look at you for a year longer than they have to.

The way K-12 is configured, if someone is held back a year, it’s usually because they just weren’t cooperating.

In my own experience with high school, it got to the point that I got along well with the teachers. There was a certain acknowledgement of the way things were, and we sometimes found ways to have fun while going through the motions.

It may be tangential, but I’ll tell this story, anyway. At one point, I was assigned to read “Things Fall Apart” by Chinua Achebe. I didn’t know what to expect. I started on it deciding to make it a case of me reading an assigned book in my own time.

Any enthusiasm I may have had had completely vanished by the time I was a few chapters in. The book was a literary disaster.

At one point, even though it was assigned reading, I decided that I just wasn’t going to read anymore, though I didn’t say a word about that to the teacher. At about the same time, the teacher just stopped bringing it up, and I didn’t receive any more assignments about that book. It was as though we had both discovered that the book was awful, right at the same time, and quietly decided not to speak of it.

Chinua Achebe may be dead, but at least he stopped writing. The world might’ve been a better place if he didn’t pursue what he didn’t have a knack for.

And no, I didn’t finish his book. And I’m not planning on it.

With the tangent over, back to Sherrif Garry McFadden. While it’s sad just how poorly he understood the government that he played a role in, he’s an expected product of the US’s K-12 education system.

Make the choice to not be fake.

About one year. That’s how long it took Kamala to go from presidential candidate villain arc to “hello fellow children”.

Remember Kamala HQ? Of course you didn’t. No one cared. But for the hypothetical half-dozen who did, you’ll be thrilled to know that Kamala HQ has leveled up it’s branding by removing Kamala’s name from it.

An improvement, to be sure. And nothing says “progressive” quite like moving on from a candidate which the left shouldn’t have viewed as viable as they did.

The new name is simply, “Headquarters”. Because, who needs personality when you have whatever it is that their corporate pseudo-gen-Z shtick is supposed to have?

But, so you know, the changes are happening quickly. What’s currently @HQNewsNow had a brief stint as a different Twitter handle, @headquarters_67.

I’m impressed. Kamala actually killed 67. She pulled off ruining the meme.

As of this writing, the account made a bunch of posts about the Super Bowl, because nothing reaches out to Gen Z quite like a game of ball played by a bunch of millionaires.

All they have to do is try to be funny about relevant topics. But as is often the case with leftists, their own pettiness and vindictiveness gets in the way.

Not that Kamala is at all bitter about the fact that it’s Trump who’s up there. But if Kamala wanted her own 45 jersey (or 67, as the case may be), she should’ve won the election.

Hey look, the implication that if the files mentioned someone, they must have done something wrong.

Also, notice how Headquarters just quote-tweeted themselves. I guess if no one else is making the tweet you want to quote, you’ve gotta do it yourself.

So, here is the formula, according to the account that killed 67: continually shit on Trump, and imply that he’s a pedophile. Then, in no time flat, Gen Z will come to the yard.

By the way, can we kindly refrain from dropping the atomic bomb of all insults at every opportunity? You know, in the interest of the language retaining its meaning in the cases where it actually applies? If everyone is a pedophile, Nazi, fascist, or whatever the fuck the left uses to try to tear the people that they hate down in as few words as possible, then that stops being unusual.

Headquarters has accomplished what was previously thought impossible: they somehow found the Venn Diagram overlap between trying too hard and not trying hard enough.

Look, I know that there’s a lot of money involved, but you can’t get me to be fake like Headquarters is fake. Because the fact is, while a person could give themselves up for any amount of money, no amount of money could get their integrity back. And that’s one thing that’s more important than money.

Suppose I woke up one day and discovered that this very blog suddenly got 100 times it’s usual traffic. Initially, I’d be thrilled. But then, I check the traffic’s location data, and nearly all of it is from either Indonesia or Pakistan. And there are hundreds of comments requesting groyper bullshit.

All I’d have to do to retain that traffic would be to go full Borg and pivot to pretending that nick Fuentes has an organic movement, with the occasional anti-Zionist meme. But I’m not going to do that. If it means staying genuine, I’d rather have less traffic.

But then there’s Kamala Harris and whatever it is she’s trying to do.

She lost, and had plenty of time to get over it. But it seems as though she’s not doing well, as evidenced by her pathetic attempt to appeal to the younger crowd.
