Cute Little Thing — but NOT a Gaslighter One of the words that has surged in popularity in the last four years is the word “gaslighting”. I think the reason for this is that since the pandemic, the popularity of the technique among politicians has also surged.

Sometimes, you need the safety of a pack One of the most insane parts of the last six or so years has been the rise of the trans movement — to the point where it’s moved off the pages of various freak show publications, to a place of prominence where, at least if you live … Continue reading Why Can’t the Dems Quit the Trans Movement?| It's About Empathy – Connection Ties Us Together
The Squad I’ve been thinking quite a bit about Charlie Kirk lately, and his assassination. It’s no surprise that as the holes get filled in, there is more and more sexual perversion coming to light — Tyler Robinson, his assassin, had a male lover, embroiled in some version of the hopped up hormonal soup the … Continue reading Fearless| It's About Empathy – Connection Ties Us Together

Reno at Night It’s not exactly a secret that I’ve been a social activist, almost completely unpaid, my entire life. It started back in 1989, after I moved out to Pullman and became involved with the environmental movement.

One of the best interviews I’ve seen this year came out last week. In it, Benjamin Boyce interviewed Dr. Dani Sulikowski, a faculty member and researcher at Charles Sturt University in Bathurst, Australia.

Importantly, she is a … Continue reading The End of Elite Overproduction| It's About Empathy – Connection Ties Us Together
