gen z is so profoundly antisocial and lonely. i have witnessed firsthand people being uncomfortable with their roommate's partner sleeping over--which is, i must stress, an extremely normal and important part of being in a relationship.

It is SO refreshing to hear a committed husband and father saying of his marriage with his (pregnant) doctor wife, “We're big believers in having it all.” I used to think “having it all” was fake, and maybe it is, but I find it far preferable to the alternative of anti-work…

IMO, it's not shocking: with marriage no longer expected of young people, the people who do choose marriage today are more likely to go into it with a sense of purpose and certainty.

One of the keys to Houston’s success is a respect for old-school practices over trendy fads When I interviewed Superintendent Miles for @CityJournal, he stood by Direct Instruction, a proven teaching method for at-risk students that many teachers dismiss as “authoritarian”

HUGE WIN at the 9th Circuit for our client Jessica Bates! This widowed Oregon mom was categorically barred from adopting a foster child—regardless of the child’s age or beliefs—because she wouldn’t promise to affirm gender ideology.   The 9th Circuit ruled that Oregon’s policy…

Sorry but “what do you do” is an American small talk classic. People spend most of their waking lives at work and usually like talking about that, even if only to complain. Theres an emerging narrative that people only this question if they’re social climbers but that’s BS

Over 30% of the “experts” who created the American Academy of Pediatrics guidance recommending Ozempic as a first-line defense for 12-year-olds were being paid by @novonordisk or @EliLillyandCo

I knew someone in high school who was 75% White and 25% Indo-Guyanese. Had a Hindu surname. Looked like a tan White woman. Only Indo-Guyanese influence was chicken curry and channa masala were go to recipes in her home. Many more like her on the way.

Exactly this. Actually, I think Girls was really insightful about exactly this. And Lena Dunham didn’t get enough credit for that because of all the other ways she’s crazy.

So much of this stuff is just that men have started getting really good at using feminine 'violence' -- the only kind you're really allowed to use nowadays -- and feminism set up this idea that you literally could not challenge these types of statements "anxiety".

The problem I've noticed in these circles is that what these women viscerally want (a masculine man who makes them feel like a woman) is very different from what they say they want (a man who is completely egalitarian, goes to therapy, etc.). So then these women wind up…

i just found out that there were more photos of hillary clinton in that apartment and they’re just as funny

You were born exactly when and where God wanted you born. You weren’t meant to live in the antebellum South or Merry Old England. You are here and now for good reason.

If I could give women a single piece of dating advice it would be that requiring men to be embarrassed and apologetic about their masculinity up front is a way to filter out all psychologically healthy men and select exclusively for weasels.

My house caught on fire when I was like 12 on vacation and I remember my dad getting the call, listening, hanging up then telling me and fam and saying “i guess we better enjoy the rest of this vacation!” Incredible power move, massive impact on my life. Still grateful

I grew up reading “boy” books and watching movies/TV with primarily white protagonists but I didn’t struggle to relate to them, and I think it’s probably counterproductive on a societal level to conceptualize yourself as inherently different from other people due to race

Would recommend that everyone give @neerajadeshp's blog a follow

i wake up. something’s wrong with the clock on the wall. the numbers are jumbled. my hands aren’t right. i tell my wife. she responds: “that’s not just an observation—it’s a powerful insight.” i scream.

This hoax is why you don’t just believe “family accounts.” Especially not in legal matters.
