What percent of people should go to 4 year college? Assume the cut is being made simply by SAT or similar, no forms of DEI whatsoever.

What percent of people should go to High School? Assume that selection is done by a fair, test-based process with no DEI, etc. Also assume that society adjusts, accepts 8th grade grads into all jobs that don't actually require HS coursework.

It's politics by vibes. It's nothing but social signaling with no correction mechanism. Their beliefs are nothing more than avoidance of being ostracized by peers. Rethinking a position is apostasy and death as a cell in their collectivist organism. To them, that crash out is…

There was a most marked recent surge in negative mentions of Charlie Kirk in media and on social media. Something happened there. I invite those who specialize in analyzing digital trends to take a close look and use their tools.

My military sources detect signs of a professional or at least organized assassination. Misdirection in the crowd to allow for the gunman to escape. Long precise shot from an elevated position. Time will tell. Be very careful as a narrative and possible suspect emerge.

People were terrified to be publicly critical on this issue. It had the biggest gap I've ever seen between public and private opinion. That gap was maintained by the fear of a vicious backlash from activists for saying anything even mildly critical. Nor was that fear unfounded.

It’s currently 60°, high of 84°. The sad kids trapped in failed @PPSConnect are leaving school early due to “extreme heat” aka their Portland teachers union teachers wanted to get out of school early on a holiday weekend. All the money in the world can’t convince me otherwise.

I genuinely wonder what a morally and economically sound way would be to deal with places that are truly struggling economically and verging on abandonment status. Should we pay to relocate people to nearby areas?



If you've been stricken with terror at the possibility that *you* can't actually bench-press 135 pounds, you can evidently estimate bench-press weight based on bodyweight and pushups (if you can't easily just get to a gym to confirm) ... x.com/i/grok/share/p…

Men are born worthless and must earn their worth, so their fantasy is earning worth. Women are born valuable, so their fantasy is being treated as valuable.

Men love isekai. Men love progression fantasy. Men love swords and sorcery. Men love violence written brutally, and in a cool way. If you write this for men, they will fucking pay you.

Nope. 99% of women do not find this attractive despite claiming they do. You’ve got thousands of men in the comments sharing their first hand experience, and all you’re doing is telling every one of them they’re “wrong” They’re sharing their feelings based on what they’ve…

The odd part is that you act as if the future beyond your life has some value to you. But deny that the present would have any similar importance to your ancestors.

Cluster B types are a good percentage of those enforcing the longhouse environment at work. They’re typically “wannabe inner school” types pushing doctrine via HR/DEI trainings & sessions. Cluster B personality disorder traits will manifest in different but unmistakable ways,…

If you were in management in the 1980s you likely received training on Cluster B and how dangerous these people are to a business...and society. We were trained to spot them and to remove them quickly before they could do any damage. I'd guess anywhere from 20-50% of management…

Allowing your state to become an accessory to the mass rape of your children would seem to be a major no-no in a democracy. But it works great if what you are seeking is a transition out of democracy into a form of a techno-authoritarianism.
