The Other McCain

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

Get Stuffed, Senior Chief @MalcolmNance

by Smitty I spent some time on Twitter today doing something wildly unusual for me: defending Senator John McCain over the (as yet unproven) allegation that McCain caused the USS Forrestal disaster. I’m no fan of the old war horse, and wish he’d retired a couple decades back. Yet, Senior Chief, your sanctimonious denunciation of […]

‘A Particularly Non-Self-Aware Man’

  Online dating is a bad idea. Every time I repeat this warning, someone in the comments will say, “But I met my [husband or wife] on [name of online dating site] and everything was awesome,” as if this anecdotal exception disproves the rule that online dating is a bad idea. People who engage in […]

‘The Immature, Demagogic Phase’

  Who is J.J. McCullough? Never heard of him before yesterday, when someone called my attention to his latest National Review column: I doubt that many Americans would disagree that the country’s conversation about gay rights is far more mature and considered than it was two decades ago. . . . Today, there exists broad understanding that […]

The Profound Sadness of Christine Emba

by Smitty Don’t know who this lady is, but she excels at missing the point, emphasis mine: But that doesn’t mean Peterson is harmless. At times, he leans into an oddly conspiratorial obsession with “neo-Marxist” liberal professors meaning to march us to the gulag via the gender equity in the classroom .?.?. or something. And […]

The Rocky Horror Family Show

  It’s astounding. Time is fleeting. Madness takes its toll: A Michigan mother of five decided she wants to be a man, and now she’s opening up about how much she loves when her kids call her both mom and dad. Formerly Erica Maison, the 40-year-old mother now goes by Eric Maison, and began her […]

‘Give Me Equality — and Pay My Bills!’

  How much does it cost to get pregnant? Well, a bottle of wine and maybe the price of some candles, doing it the old-fashioned romantic way. Fortunately, my wife doesn’t drink, so we’ve got six kids at an even cheaper rate, but my point is that pregnancy is usually free. Not everybody does things […]
