Finished Reading

 This book is an anthology of NGD’s aphorisms coupled with commentary from the translator.  The commentator brings up the idea of Climate Change a little too much for my liking but the volume is a valuable read all the same.

The Authentic Reactionary

 

The book I ordered on Amazon has arrived.

Don’t be tainted by Suffering

 This is against the ethos of the Canadian regime, but as Mother Angelica says, give it up to God.

Friday 7:18 AM: Minus Nine

 The temperature:

A good Frank Vaughan video about the CBC:

You can never hate the CBC enough.  Absolutely true.

I can go to the Friday mass today. Hooray! 

TDS & The Cold & So on

 There are many reasons, I am in the RCIA.  One, is that I should have been in it many years ago but couldn’t because I was in China; a case of better late than never. Other reasons are Truth, Beauty and Love.  Another reason is that mulling over politics is a useless activity.  

Pols and bureaucracies are demon possessed through and through.  They are the enemy of men, but are fallen like men.  So best to pay them no never mind.  Sure, there might be a few good pols but the political process destroys their souls.  Catholicism is my country.

So, I can’t make TDS or MAGA the center of my existence.  Be that as it may, TDS is intolerable.  Trump has the remarkable ability to bring out the demonic in his opponents.  Be that as it may, sometimes think I would like to see Trumpism without Trump.

Speaking of intolerable, I have gone for walks in the minus twenty temperatures.  The first walk was invigorating.  The second at night, the cold had me racing home. I felt the sting of the cold on my unexposed face as well as on my fingers when I had to take my gloves off.

Polar Vortexes

 Or vortices.

I don’t remember there being polar vortexes when I was previously living in Manitoba.

I just remember days when it was very, very cold.
