  • A Miscellany of Right-Wing Things

    These are a bunch of things that I need to note somewhere but which individually do not add up to a whole post. They are all to some degree genre related with a degree of WTFery about them. Rowling We’ll start with J.K. Rowling whose long transformation into an outlet for extremism has certainly entered…

  • JUST ONE MORE!!!!!

    No, no, you’ll like this as it has some signal out of the noise. EPH points typically change during each round but not always. It is rare though for a nominee who last into the last four rounds to have no change at all in their EPH points. Here are some lists of occurrences. I’ll…

  • I listened to VD/JDA so you didn’t have to

    The recent social media conflict between Jon Del Arroz and Larry Correia (see https://camestrosfelapton.wordpress.com/2023/10/02/yet-more-scuttlebutt/ ) has largely run out of steam. However, at the peak of the conflict JDA announced that he would be hosting Vox Day on his YouTube channel to talk about the real truth about the Sad Puppies campaign. Sure enough, yesterday…

  • Yet more scuttlebutt

    Read (or if you value your sanity, don’t read) the previous post first, then carry on.

  • Pure Scuttlebutt

    Feel free to ignore the following as it involves Twitter and two people who are not known for accurate recall of past events and who most readers here have issues with. Specifically, it is a Twitter thread involving Larry Correia and Jon Del Arroz. As it is likely to disappear at some point other, it…

  • An update on an update on an old mystery

    We are into the very obscure section of the ever-growing lore around failed Vox Not-A-Nazi Day projects. You may all need to read this first https://camestrosfelapton.wordpress.com/2022/02/24/an-update-on-an-old-mystery/ but you can skip over the bits about the mysterious (and ongoing) disappearance of writer Rod Walker. Embroiled in that mystery was a side controversy that Castalia House would…

  • Do you remember Jeffro Johnson?

    Here’s a Rabid Puppy finalist and Castalia House alumnus that I had forgotten about, Jeffro Johnson. For those who have forgotten, his reviews of the works listed in the Appendix N of Dungeons & Dragons ran as a series on the Castalia House blog and was part of the 2015 Rabid Puppies slate (Best Fan…

  • Trad-Blog Topic Week: Day & IQ

    Fate seems to have determined that this week the blog is dedicated to classic topics like “silly thing Larry Correia said” or “what’s going on with the Dragon Awards”, so what better way to keep the trend going than “what bollocks did Vox Day just say about IQ?” Day picked up a comment at a…

  • Update on my last post

    So I still don’t know what is going on in Russia but I do now know what Vox “not a neo-Nazi” Day thinks about it. It appears the delay was due to waiting to see if Putin managed to stay in control and now that (apparently) some kind of deal has been struck, Day has…

  • I don’t know what is going on in Russia but…

    Yesterday (Australia time), the head of Russia’s quasi-mercenary Wagner Group Yevgeny Prigozhin posted videos critical of the heads of Russia’s military, packed up his sizeable forces in Ukraine and headed back into Russia. From there things get hazy. As well as military operations, the Wagner Group also deals in disinformation (and catering* – good to…
