There's a strange tendency for the world to discover that people have different preferences, and then immediately respond to this revelation with "actually, women like-". Women like lots of very very different things! There is no point trying to assert "what women like".

This is like when the Telegraph review of my book pitched a hissy fit when I said the Falklands War was colonial. What does the Telegraph think “colonial” means, if not exploration and, well, colonies??? www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/04...

i feel like trumpcoin, and the fact that we never talk about it, is pretty emblematic of the way the press refuses to grapple with trump. it exists in order to pay him bribes. it expressly gives you political access. it does not pretend to have a licit motive. it was a one-day scandal.

We have a scant few years to mitigate the cataclysmic effects of anthropogenic climate change. These are the policies we're discussing. Polishing the brass on the Titanic at least resulted in slightly shinier brass.

this is not even stipulated by the change in law, which only determines who has a right to claim access or protection afforded to women under the law. the accurate, and still egregious, reading, alongside the gender recognition act, is that transgender women are women - but not equal to other women.

I do love the strange duality of these "just asking questions " Substacknwriters who constantly assert that they are credulous idiots who are constantly tricked AND that you should come to them for insight.

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

Our administration will stand for two things: Fighting antisemitism and stopping the Soros-funded, Hollywood-controlling, migration-orchestrating, well-poisoning, global banking cabal of rootless cosmopolitans from destroying our Christian way of life. by J.D. Vance

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.
