An Un-Ironic look at “The Iron Dream”
Last year, a friend of mine mentioned he planned on rereading Norman Spinrad’s The Iron Dream without irony. Synchronicity as I had been thinking of doing the same thing. Norman Spinrad wrote one of the greatest Star Trek episodes, “The Doomsday Machine” from Season 2. He wrote a couple competent space operas in the 60s, […]

Why are art and literature so important? Because - for better or worse - they form the social narrative through which history is interpreted and understood.
Read The Wise of Heart - my courtroom drama of biological science versus transgenderism - if you want to understand what it's all about and how it should be interpreted.
Most recent review:
"Incredibly well done, I can see why it was banned... I wasn’t particularly drawn to the subject matter that sparked the controversy. I’m also not into legal dramas, maybe because I was trained as a lawyer. But… I loved this book. It was great. What I loved about it: Tight tight plot pushes you along. By the time I reached the middle, could not put the book down.... The characters were awesome." https://amzn.to/41OHSz7
And the audiobook version?
"His voice acting was top-notch! In some cases it was downright scary good."

BREAKING: Islamists in Syria are indiscriminately rounding up and torturing civilians. They are targeting the Christians, Druze, and Alawites of Syria.
The silence from the media and international community is absolutely disgusting.
Where are the BBC reporters ?

"“When I read Wired,” Bill Murray said, “the book written by what’s his name Woodward about Belushi. I read five pages of Wired and I went ‘Oh my God, they framed Nixon.’
"He continued, “All of a sudden I went, ‘Oh my God, if this is what he writes about my friend who I’ve known half of my of my adult life, which is completely inaccurate, talking to the outer-outer circle getting the story, what the hell could they have done to Nixon? I just felt like if he did this to my friend like this… …if they did this to Belushi, then what he did to Nixon is probably soiled for me too.”"

Ghostbusters Actor Bill Murray Speaks Out About Watergate On The Joe Rogan Experience: "Oh My God, They Framed Nixon"
Actor Bill Murray isn’t known for going out and preaching about politics like many other actors, and his appearance on Joe Rogan came across as surprising to many, but viewers were shocked even further as he claimed Nixon was set up on the show.

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon has quietly renamed the Trump administration’s ambitious national missile defense initiative from “Iron Dome for America” to “Golden Dome for America,” according to a recent advisory to defense contractors.
The publication Defense News suggested a possible explanation might be trademark concerns, as “Iron Dome” is a registered trademark owned by Israeli defense firm Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, which developed Israel’s existing Iron Dome system in partnership with Israel Aerospace Industries and the U.S. Missile Defense Agency.
The program originated from President Donald Trump’s January 27 executive order initiating planning for what was then called “The Iron Dome for America.” The order established the development of a next-generation missile defense shield as national policy, citing threats from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles.

"Finally Dreiser, convinced of the importance of the work, cornered his own publisher, Boni & Liveright, home to the likes of Faulkner and Hemingway, threatening to leave unless they took on Fort’s 1919 The Book of the Damned.
"Unwilling to lose Dreiser, they reluctantly produced 500 copies. But their publicist, pioneering propagandist Edward Bernays, gamely offered this selling point in early ads: “For Every Five People Who Read It Four Will Go Insane!”"
