I too am enraged by the nefarious fascist ploy to improve universities
Greg Lukianoff@glukianoff

Yes, the people who want free speech, childhood independence and respect for individual autonomy and authenticity are the REAL fascists! Note: American higher education is $1 trillion mega industry that is probably that includes many of the most influential and wealthy corporations in history. Defending it is the opposite of being a radical or a rebel, and the level of self delusion among its defenders is all the more shocking because it's so sincere.

@glukianoff Excellent. We toss around the term “narcissist” very casually when the real thing is actually truly horrific. The public could use more information about NPD and similarly ruinous personality disorders.

I recently got a sneak preview of The Narcissist’s Playbook, a feature-length documentary on malignant narcissism. It includes interviews with world-renowned experts, victims, survivors, and, most chillingly, four self-aware malignant narcissists explaining how they operate.

I reviewed The Coddling of the American Mind when it came out, and it's a deeply dishonest and very stupid book, designed to fool unwary liberals into endorsing fascist proselytisation. There's just no need to take these people even slightly seriously. newsocialist.org.uk/university-cul…

Los Angeles has become a magnet for the homeless all over the world. We replicated a RAND Corporation study and found that more than half of LA's street homeless are not from LA. Instead, they're coming from other parts of California, other states, and other countries.

Is there anyone else who still favors reading physical books over e-books in 2026?

Once you experience, at least once in your life, being very right when the rest of the world was telling you that you were very wrong, then you become immune to groupthink and herd mentality, as you've learned firsthand that most people don't know what they are talking about:

Every time someone says "Woke is dead!", Canada has vowed to add one character to the oppression alphabet. We're currently at "MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+" The new letters "MMIWG" stand for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.

Heard a Sharks fan leaving the Arena say, "I want a refund. We didn't score one (expletive) goal!" Guessing it was the fan's first Sharks game in a while.

If Klingberg was taken off the ice because he's moving as well, then we're going to have basically an "Oops, all lefties" defensive corps at the NHL level (Desharnais excepted). And we just sent out Jack Thompson, noted righty.

@uncledoomer “Jazz” is an umbrella term that covers a ton of music. There really is something for everyone, but unfortunately the music has a big PR problem and most people form their opinions of an entire genre after the one interaction they have with the music.

the problem with "jazz sucks" is that people who say that are picking up, like, the hardest hard bop record and trying to vibe out. hard bop is for stuffy intellectuals to pretend theyre smart. what youre looking for is "cool jazz." listen to some bill evans and chet baker.
