 There’s a Mighty Old Name on the Scene For the past half century or so, the University of Pennsylvania has not been treated as an equal in the Ivy League, let alone the CHYOS Club. Here’s a telling true story. At a recent Penn-Princeton basketball game, the Quakers had an insurmountable lead in the closing seconds, and the girlie-boys of Princeton started chanting, “Safety School…! Safety School…!” For many years, the preppy feeder schools for the Ivies with the toughest admissions standards had reliably used three schools as fallbacks (i.e., Safety Schools): the University of Virginia, the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, and Penn. A similar discrimination situation obtained with law schools. Harvard, Yale, Columbia, and later Stanford got first pick, and Penn somehow occupied a lower rung. Here’s a direct quote from the website ‘wordhistories’ about the mutating epithet “Philadelphia Lawyer”: The proof of this evolving lack of respect can be found in the history of the ...

Used to be a woman named Stephanie Grisham, now  a harpy gold digger making big bucks hating Trump For a woman aspiring to influence and power, when did teeth become such an important accessory? I don’t mean pretty teeth. I mean teeth as threat display: big teeth, the aggressive overbite, even buck teeth thrust forward in a sneer. Because of the way media works, most of the attention and blame for this phenomenon has been diverted to a single individual, but as we’re going to to see, she is only the tippy-top tooth of an iceberg of dentition in the new world of female predators. Who have been exemplified since ancient times by the Harpies and related icons of mythology. What is a harpy?  Sirens were closely related to harpies, adding the element of  potent, even magical, vocal capabilities designed to destroy men. The Sirens may have been first in terms of myth origins, seen as sea creatures (i.e., mermaids) who evolved in legend to become winged killers with talons and f...

  Let me tell you a little story here. The phoenix is an immortal bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. While it's part of Greek mythology, it has analogs in many cultures such as Egyptian and Persian. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by rising from the ashes of its predecessor. A myth can sometimes become reality. Let me tell you a true story to go with the myth. I posted this at Facebook this morning less than an hour ago, along with a two minute video: Massive Win for Criminals: Illinois Sets Risky Precedent by Becoming First State to Abolish Cash Bail https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/09/massive-win-criminals-illinois-sets-risky-precedent-becoming/ FTA: <<Massive Win for Criminals: Illinois Sets Risky Precedent by Becoming First State to Abolish Cash Bail Illinois has become the first state in the U.S. to entirely abolish cash bail starting today, September 18, 2023, a massive win for criminals.

Not written out, just force-faded out. Arrest might be my only opportunity. Wrote this a couple days ago. It has attracted no likes, emojis, or comments. My posts, especially longer ones and those that include my homemade videos rarely make it to the News feed, and FB friends are generally reticent to come directly to my page because of my pattern of resistance to Facebook wrist slaps and my refusal not to say politically incorrect, non-Woke things in my words and graphics. Back in the spring, a longtime FB friend informed me he had just taken a new job in which employee social network activity is monitored. He asked me, apologetically, not to communicate with him directly anymore. His mother is still a sometime visitor though. At any rate, rather than have my post die on the vine I’m reconstructing it here at Instapunk Returns, where I have had 40,000 views in about four years of on-and-off posting. Don’t know who those people are, except that Blogger informs me all but 10 to 15 perce...

 THEY REALLY DID WANT HER TO SUCCEED I am of two minds about this post. On the one hand I have a lot of comedy material about Kamala Harris, not of the kind variety, and given the recent return to relevance of her political fate, I figured this would be a good time to assemble pics and links illustrating her pratfalls and progressive sidelining from a news media that really wanted her to do well.  Melania Trump, the most beautiful ever First Lady  for four years, never got a magazine cover. But I also feel kind of bad for Harris the VP. The mass media which could have helped her more than they did share at least some of the blame for her miserable performance in the polls. From the first, it was the White House which clearly had a hidden agenda about how best to (mis)use the black woman they had compromised even before her nomination by closing the VP candidate to all but one race and one sex. She was never meant to share in the glow of Biden’s inaugural promise to be the...
