Masters of the Universe 2026

By the Power of Grayskull!! I have the Powerrrr!

Film “critics” and as a general rule of thumb, I ignore them, have proclaimed this movie as a box office bomb. Okay, be that as it may, I watched it last night, because film critics are arseholes.

An important note, this is NOT a movie for little kids. Real and implied violence, scary images etc.

I am not going to lie. I liked it. It is satirical, lots of IYKYK humour and I laughed. I laughed, a lot. (Yes, Dolph Lundgren does do a cameo.)

Granted, I had 3 boys, 2 of whom would come home from elementary school and watch He-Man. They owned every toy manufactured from the franchise, as well as t-shirts, hats etc. I learned by osmosis as many parents do. So, in the spirit of transparency, I do know all about He-Man, Skeletor, Evil-Lyn, Sheera, Teela, Battlecat, Sorceress, Man-at-Arms and even Orko.

The movie is cheesy in a “We don’t take this seriously” way, it was funny, lots of CGI – acceptable level considering the content. A real welcome escape from the hell we’re living in, currently. Sir Idris Elba is Man-At-Arms and is truly funny in the role. I am not thrilled with Jared Leto as Skeletor for personal reasons…I think he’s a jackass. Leto, not Skeletor.

I’m not sure what the critics expected. Get over yourselves…this is simple entertainment. It isn’t an epic. It isn’t a commentary on society. It is a movie based on a little kids’ cartoon. Not that difficult a concept unless your head is so full of your own majesty that you can’t fit through a normal door frame.

Need a break? Familiar with the cartoons from the mid to late 80’s? Then you’ll get this. You’ll get the humour and you will escape from the hell we are all living in.

Video Game Rant or I Can’t Take Any More Political Garbage Today.

I’m a gamer. I’m not an Edge Lord…I’m just a gamer. I like RPGs and temps en temps, (Yes, that is French, I live in Québec and that’s how we roll here. 😁) I do MMORPGs but never in a party. Learned my lesson decades ago after receiving obscene messages and pics. My gameplay is based on the grind, its how I get my frustrations out. I will follow the scenario but not at the exclusion of whacking the crap out of demons, orcs and other foes.

I have a deep respect for devs. I also have a deep scorn for folks who, without fail, constantly rag on seasons or game mechanics.

I have been playing video games longer than a lot of folks have been using the potty on their own. Started with Gold Rush and Leisure Suit Larry, played the first version of Warcraft, so yeah – been playing a while. You name the RPG or MMORPG and I’ve probably given it a shot. You know what I do when I don’t like a game? I don’t play it. It isn’t for me but I’m not going to dump on the devs or the company as a result.

I tried my hand at coding (not games) way back in the day…you know, C Basic, C+ etc. so when I play a game, I do bless those developers, those coders with all my heart and soul.

I see you! I appreciate you. If there is a season that I’m not enjoying? I play something else until a new season drops. It ain’t neurosurgery.

Critiques are great….but when it becomes your identity to criticize constantly? Just sit down and shut up. Read a book or something.

Okay, that’s all. Just needed to vent and I’m married to a guy that does not game, does not understand my love of the pastime.

Suffering from U.S. Exhaustion…

If you wish to follow the creator in the pic, here is the addy: https://www.instagram.com/officialjanetmbugua

Also, I would say to Janet (above), it isn’t only your nation but the entire world who is fed up of American bullshit.

Apologies, I haven’t been doing much other than posting memes on the Book of Faces because I am exhausted. Mentally, psychologically EX-HAUST-ED by the absolute shite oozing over our borders from the U.S.

Latest? Apparently Dirty Diaper Don and his Muckbrained Minions want to slap more tariffs on Canada (and no they, absolutely, don’t understand how tariffs work, I kid you not), because of forest fires that have decimated parts of our country and smoke is leaving our country, without American permission, and invading the northern states…(Truly, there aren’t enough eyerolls for this.)

The braindead “politicians” and I use the term “politician” in the lightest terms are the following:

The American politicians who have publicly blamed Canada for the drifting smoke include: [1]

  • President Donald Trump: Stated the US is being “unnecessarily invaded by filthy, polluted, and unhealthy air” and threatened to add the “costs of this pollution” to existing tariffs.
  • Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH): Announced plans to introduce the Canada Fire Act to sanction Canada and Canadian government officials until progress is made on wildfire and smoke reduction.
  • Representative John James (R-MI): Addressed a “FINAL WARNING TO CANADA” on social media, stating that “American lungs are paying the price for Canadian inaction, year after year”.
  • Representative Lisa McClain (R-MI): Echoed concerns over “Canada’s wildfire crisis” and advocated for the US to explore options in holding Canadian forestry management accountable

Here is a pic from NASA, illustrating the number of wildfires in the U.S. FROM THE NASA website. (https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/usfs/map/#d:24hrs;l:fires_all,countries,earth;@-89.3,37.3,4.7z)

And let’s not talk about the B.C. (British Columbia and a province IN CANADA) who died while HELPING with forest fire in COLORADO (not part of Canada).

These (IMO) disgusting arseholes will say anything to divert and distract from their criminal incompetency and degenerate behaviours.

In my household, as a result of the past 10+ years of listening to the sideshow showman and the MagaTs insane rhetoric, have vowed to NEVER enter the U.S. ever again. We make concentrated efforts to NOT purchase anything from the United States. No, it is not the direct fault of all Americans but the fact that this continues makes it so. We’ll spend our money, our vacations in-country or any other country other than the US. We did have plans for several road trips/vacations south of our border but absolutely cancelled. May not seem like much but we aren’t alone.

This blog was going to be about Blizzard and Diablo IV but…I needed to vent…maybe a gaming blog later on today, if I can manifest the energy to do so.

Lions and Tigers and Ebola…Oh My!

Or COVID PTSD

Normally, I like David Pakman but this video really kind of pissed me off. It took less than a minute to get a few details and Reddit posts are not, in my mind anyway, considered as “credible” news source.

The fact is, a passenger from the DRC boarded a flight; no symptoms of Ebola, just a person travelling from DNR to the U.S. (Why anyone is travelling to the U.S. boggles my mind but whatever…). The U.S. has restricted travel from the DNR and Uganda due to a large outbreak of a strain of the Ebola virus. Anyone travelling from those countries must debark in Washington, unfortunately somebody messed up or the reservation was made prior to the outbreak and this passenger was destined to land in Detroit. No spewing germs all over the cabin, no writhing on the floor with fluids leaving his/her body, just an incorrect destination point.

CALM, THE FREAK, DOWN, people. Ebola is nothing new in the DNR or Uganda..I think Kenya has had a couple of outbreaks as well. The world is full of viruses, we travel and yeah, that does make the transmission of illness far easier for those little germs. The actual risk? Sure, its there but use common sense, soap and water; I take it a bit further and I do not travel on cruise ships. Floating Petri dishes IMO.

I would be concerned if traveling and spending extended periods of time in Central Africa, you may want to take precautions but if you’re sitting in your living room, in Canada or the U.S. I’m pretty sure you’re good…

Here is the story about the Air France flight diversion.

Ebola virus: Flight diverted to Montreal due to U.S. restrictions

And here is the link to the WHO commentary on the outbreak.

Epidemic of Ebola Disease caused by Bundibugyo virus in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda determined a public health emergency of international concern

Hanta Virus aka Go Outside and Touch Grass

Seriously?? Step away from your computer/cell phone/tablette.

Yes, Hanta virus is a concern if you plan on snorting rodent poop, otherwise, normal hygienic practice works wonders. Holy crap people…(See what I did there? 😁) Take a pill.

Folks in the country, people with cottages are, loosely, by and large, aware of the risks. When sweeping or cleaning out in the spring, windows and doors are opened. I would hope that regular cleaning is carried out, in order to rid the home of as many of the little buggers as possible, year round.

The fact that this virus took hold on a cruise ship is not really surprising; cruise ships are, after all, little more than floating Petri dishes. Personally I wouldn’t take a cruise if the company offered to pay me; the thought of spending time on a floating toilet with hundreds if not thousands of people who don’t, necessary, wash their hands after toilet routines makes me want to 🤢🤢.

The folks who, sadly, passed away were from a demographic who, FOR THE LOVE OF MIKE, not have been on the aforementioned floating Petri dish, anyway. They were elderly and as elderly, much lower resistance to illness and the serious ramifications of illness.

Stop freakin’ panicking, the news stories blowing up about this are simply “news” agencies looking to boost their ratings in a cutthroat environment.

Rules to live by?

  1. Wash your hands
  2. Don’t snort rodent poop
  3. Clean and disinfect in a well-ventilated area
  4. Always employ simple person hygiene.
  5. Again, don’t snort rodent poop.

Rape Academy?

Yes, we know. We know a large contingent of the male population hate us. They are afraid of us, I think. As a gender we are stronger than are they. We are more resilient. We are everything they wish they could be.

These “men” and that noun is being used in the most loose of terms as they aren’t men, are the same group of predators that tell us, that as women, we NEED them as protectors. Do you see the problem with that?

Protectors. Protector us from whom? FROM PREDATORY MEN. Look in the mirror, or any reflective surface.

I’m so fed up of hearing them. You don’t like that women don’t trust you anymore? You don’t like that we would choose the bear? Then MAN UP and call out misogynist “locker room” talk and behaviours. Make it unacceptable in your presence and maybe, women may begin to heal and to hold out an olive branch. We may never completely trust you again but it is a start.

The Ardanes, The Laws and Gerald Gardner

Why I Don’t Charge For Readings.

This piece comes from a few conversations regarding charging money for tarot readings & study recently.

I don’t charge for readings; I did charge one person, one time, because the subject was a horrendous and who, frankly, gave me the willies. She reinforced my rule for not charging, funny enough. If I am not providing a service with a fee? I can pick and choose, as I wish. Readings, TBH, really take a toll. I’m often exhausted or out-of-sorts for several hours afterwards.

The origin of not charging comes from a set of 161 Laws; they were reputed to be old laws but the vernacular was a mixture of reputedly old and modern English, as a result, its…validity was pretty damn murky to me. They are supposed to have been part of GBG’s BOS. (GBG – Gerald B. Gardner & BOS is “Book of Shadows).

#119 Never accept money for the use of the art, for money ever smeareth the taker. ‘Tis sorcerors and conjurers and the priests of the Christians who ever accept money for the use of their arts. And they sell pardons to let men ascape from their sins.

#120 Be not as these. If you accept no money, you will be free from temptation to use the art for evil causes.

These are direct quotes from those laws, the spelling and laughable grammar is not mine own. Be that as it may, the words stuck with me. I never charged for classes, for study groups or any other activities related to the practice. Donations for rental space, for food/drink were accepted but payment? Nope.

There is the argument that these stanzas related to spellcraft, herb craft etc. but as divination in all its forms is viewed as an “art”, tarot, naturally fell into the category outlined in the laws.

So why do I follow those two laws if I don’t take all of them seriously? Because they make sense to me, they struck a chord. To each his/her own.

Before you reach out to request a reading? I withdrew from that world, a long time ago. I don’t read for folks anymore. I simply don’t have that kind of energy.

Xtian Nationalism or the American Taliban.

This is a “Must” listen. Xtian nationalists have declared war on women. They are in for a surprise, women do not lay down, butt in the air, the way their male brethren do.

Daniel Tocci, Pedophiles and The White House

Trump, in Jan. 2018, reportedly referred to Haiti and some African nations as “shitholes”. This is projection President Yam-Tits, it is the U.S. that holds the title of “Shithole”

Tocci isn’t alone;

“At least six of the pardoned insurrectionists are charged with committing child sex crimes; five were charged with illegal possession of weapons, including two who had previous domestic violence convictions; and two were charged with rape.” ( https://www.dcreport.org/2026/01/07/jan-6-insurrectionists-rearrested-after-trump-pardons/

I am no longer shocked to see MagaT pastors, church leaders, church youth group volunteers charged with child pornography or sexual abuse of children. It is par for the course, at this point. And why not? The president of the shithole country, formally known as the United States, is alleged to have been an important part of the Epstein class.

Was all the proud American trumpet blowing of previous decades nothing more than propaganda? I’m afraid so. A proud country, a brave country could not have fallen so far, so fast, if this were reality. Perhaps this is a case of spray painting a turd, with gold.

I’m out. I just can’t anymore today…
