The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Late Night With In The Mailbox

— compiled by Wombat-socho Rule 5 Sunday is going to be punted until this weekend, when we’ll have a double scoop of pulchritudinous goodness, possibly involving ducks, but not turkeys. Going to do the long-delayed FMJRA tomorrow evening, and there’ll probably be a book post in there somewhere. Thanks to everyone for your patience! OVER […]

The Progressive Myth of ‘Diversity’

“The next time some academics tell you how important diversity is, ask how many Republicans there are in their sociology department.” — Thomas Sowell, 1998 In his 2012 book The Tyranny of Clichés, Jonah Goldberg recounts the pinnacle of his career, when the inclusion of his column (and the discontinuation of left-wing columnist Robert Scheer) […]

The Academic Temple Cult

While university administrators surrender to protest mobs of young barbarians, we behold the decline of cultural literacy: Not only are way too many of today’s students not getting a basic grounding in these things from their schools, but they’re probably not getting it from way too many of their parents, either.

The Misogyny of Atheist Dudebros and the Godless Misandry of Lesbian Tumblrinas

Sarah is a 20-year-old social work student with a radical feminist Tumblr blog — adorned by a rainbow-colored Wicca pentagram — who hates men almost as much as she hates God: Overzealous atheists are 9 times out of 10 annoying racist misogynistic dudebros but in my opinion it’s totally justified for same sex attracted people to […]

Sen. Free Stuff (D-Awesome)

  His economic ideas are as obsolete as Eugene V. Debs, his foreign policy proposals can be summarized in two words — unilateral disarmament — and yet the socialist senator from Vermont inspires orgasmic enthusiasm from Generation Selfie: It’s about the millennial generation and how they just love Bernie Sanders, the oldest white man in […]

Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” is one of those songs I never get tired of hearing. I seldom listen to contemporary pop music, preferring old rock and soul classics of the 1960s and ’70s, but “Rolling in the Deep” is an exception.
