John C. Wright's Journal

Some say that ever ‘gainst that season comes

So hallow’d and gracious is the time. –Hamlet

In keeping with the tradition here at John C.

Let us pause for unsolemn reflection on these solemnities.

For the record, since I opened my “Voice of Reason” account and started posting my Last Crusade oration to Rumble, the Rumble views being monetized, I have had 46 views all told, and earned my first penny.

Well, aside from the stolen election of 2020 not being corrected, and Trump being reinstalled, and the perpetrators hanged by the neck until dead, I feel the passing year was not as bad as it might have been.

Remember for what our father and grandfathers fought and died.

They did it for their gals.

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and St. Valentine’s Day.

Go to confession, and be shriven for your sins. Get flowers for your girl.
