From Theodore Roosevelt Malloch:
The four corners of deceit are: government, academia, science, and the media. I had a hard time coming to this radical conclusion myself, as I wanted to believe otherwise, was not a conspiracist, and have attained all the laurels on offer from our current system. Just read my memoir, Davos, Aspen & Yale. I have been behind the elite curtain...

Via Kling:
The brute reality is that most kids slot themselves into academic ability bands early in life and stay there throughout schooling. We have a certain natural level of performance, gravitate towards it early on, and are likely to remain in that band relative to peers until our education ends. There is some room for wiggle, and in large populations there are always outliers. But in thousands of years of education humanity has discovered no replicable and reliable means of taking kids from one educational percentile and raising them up into another.

I mean THC Gummies. 2.5 mg is excellent for insomnia problems. There is nothing enjoyable about that dose, just relax and then asleep.

There is a contradiction between the "grief" and "anguish" and "rage" about the reversal of the Roe decision and ordinary feminist, or plain ordinary views about peoples' sex lives.
Yes, sex is a powerful driver in life for men and women. It is biological and psychological. However, at least after adolescence, we are all endowed with a brain too. In my view, women have all the power. They have the power of attraction, and have the modern power of birth control.
Excepting rape (or maybe substance-addled non-decision-making), men and women are in charge of conception. It is not rocket science. Women can not leave it all to the boys and very few do.

The 4th of July weekend is a good time to remind everybody about the genius of the US Constitution. This founding document (1787) is a work of genius, especially insofar as it took into account human nature.
Declaring independence from Britain was a bold move (Thank you, France, for your help), but the cornerstone is the Constitution.
What precisely is the expert knowledge necessary to grasp that the judiciary has nothing to do with public opinion?
I enjoy it when the Supremes return power to the people.

I am hearing stories. They can not get enough people to work in the pharmacies.
One theory is that they make you wait so you will buy other stuff, but I doubt that that is a strategy.
