@jewandahalfmen I believe that women (who have a higher care moral foundation on average) primarily see men as exactly one of the triad of offspring, protectors, and predators, and many of their political problems are caused by the swapping of these categories.

It's a testament to the decrepitude of institutional psychology that nobody has examined why transgenders are drawn to speedrunning and rapid movement in virtual environments. Why are they like this? It's known it's their thing, but nobody really knows why.

Why is it impossible to get a politician who is neither an open-borders blank-slatist nor a gerontocratic socialist slopulist?

🚨 WATCH: Nigel Farage formally commits to the state pension triple lock if Reform UK win the next election "The people to whom pensions are being paid, certainly compared to a younger generation today, are those who have actually worked and paid into the system"

@TerminusVinter Atheism didn't lose because of reddit atheists, it lost because of flanking from nagging SJWs/proto-norwoods on one side calling atheism Weird™ and rationalwiki/Atheism+ progressives trying to make the only acceptable form of atheism be synonymous with left-wing activism.

@elonmusk Would just one right-wing law school scholarship or internship be too much of a cost for you?

Harvard circa 1700s: "No student shall be admitted unless they can translate Greek and Latin authors such as Tully, Virgil, The New-Testament, & Xenophon." Harvard circa 2026: "We can't assign whole novels anymore."

A decade after Gwern wrote his essay on embryo selection for IQ, we're closing in on the upper bound he predicted. Herasight is now at about +8 from 10 embryos.

The average person's worldview and epistemology is akin to hearing a knock knock joke, and taking thinking that the answer to every knock knock joke is "interrupting cow, moo". They have a childhood assumption about the world, and the first time it is proven wrong, they adopt whatever caused their cognitive dissonance as their Adult assumptions, and think that everyone who believes the latter are adults and anyone who believes anything else, is childish. They don't learn the meta rule, the joke structure, the concept of premise - input - new conclusion. They just think the answer to every-MOO

@TerminusVinter Black Souls 2, but also the first game to a lesser extent, is an example of an art game which also has more detailed strategic gameplay (especially if you don't grind) than many games which are purely intended for gameplay.

Twitter 1.0 banned all right-wing accounts, shrinking Trump movement as a whole. Twitter 2.0 bans select accounts of the secular-progressive right, and boosts mainstream MAGA-slop. This is intentional part of larger long-term plan, can no longer be dismissed as "accidental."

We do not live in a rationalist, scientific civilization that disdains anything that cannot be measured or quantified (this was arguably true in 1960, not today), we live in a superstitious and mystical one with a few surviving islands of reason.

Jerry Coyne@Evolutionistrue

British Columbia has adopted indigenous "ways of knowing" as coequal to real science in secondary-school classes. This dilutes science education and misrepresents superstition as knowledge. whyevolutionistrue.com/2026/03/27/ind…
