Nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst. America’s cultural offensive throughout the world (1955). On December 19, 2016. I went looking for something in the Congressional Record and found an interesting statement relating to the Cold War. I’ve typed up the first part of it. It’s on pages 8389 and 8390 (1346 and 1347) here. America’s Cultural Offensive Throughout The World. Extension of Remarks of Hon. Alexander Wiley of Wisconsin in the Senate of the United States. Wednesday, June 15, 1955. Our purpose is, of ...

An unusual vowel contrast | nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst
https://nithgrim.wordpress.com/2016/08/27/an-unusual-vowel-contrast
Nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst. An unusual vowel contrast. On August 27, 2016. I do think that the official IPA chart is crowded with symbols which exist not so much for good acoustic or linguistic reasons as to fill the slots implied by its tongue-space framework. For instance, I’m not sure that languages ever contrast ɨ. The unrounded close non-front vowel of languages like Turkish and Vietnamese is sometimes transcribed as ɯ. And sometimes as ɨ. A while ago, I downloaded PHOIBLE. Address never made...

Nonetheless, hidden inside the irrationality was this logic: born in the Americas, he could not be a true Spaniard; ergo, born in Spain, the peninsular could not be a true American.

The Dravidian-Australian connection? | nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst
https://nithgrim.wordpress.com/2016/08/04/the-dravidian-australian-connection
Nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst. On August 4, 2016. The indigenous languages of Australia have striking similarities in their phoneme inventories. Most have no fricatives, and none, as far as I know, have sibilants. Australian languages tend to have retroflexes (one exception is Bandjalang. Which has only 12 consonants), palatals, contrastive dentals and alveolars, and several laterals and rhotics. Gasser and Bowern (2013). But there is much less difference across inventories in Australia than in most ...

National(ist) security | nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst
https://nithgrim.wordpress.com/2016/07/07/nationalist-security
Nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst. On July 7, 2016. One of the primary goals of the Islamic State and other radical Islamist groups is to drive a wedge between Sunni Muslims and the wider world, to fuel alienation as a recruiting tool. There are a lot of people saying this, and none of them bother to back it up. In Burma, lord only knows who’s backing all the other. Ethnic separatists in Burma and how did Casa Pound end up involved with the KNLA? Which could explain both the migrant crisis as a whole and...

The Soviet government’s uniformly pro-marriage position | nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst
https://nithgrim.wordpress.com/2016/12/19/the-soviet-governments-uniformly-pro-marriage-position
Nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst. The Soviet government’s uniformly pro-marriage position. On December 19, 2016. Young Soviet marriages have a rather poor survival rate. Marriage at 19, divorce at 23–often with a young child left in the breach–is the all-too-common scenario. …. Low-price abortions are available, but the concomitant red-tape and the reputedly shoddy manner with which the operations are performed lend yet another topic for the well-developed sense of Soviet chorny. Unlike most countries i...

In defense of all-male spaces | nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst

Nydwracu niþgrim, nihtbealwa mæst. In defense of all-male spaces. On July 4, 2016. Originally posted as a comment here. The progressive model of normie gender relations is incomplete. On the one hand, it’s true that, under normie gender relations, men lead and women follow; but on the other hand, it’s also. True that men are supposed to, for example, open doors for women. Nobody believes that women can’t. Open doors; so why are men supposed to do it for them? Disgust. The woman performs being scared ...
