Someday I will have to listen to the Beach Boys discography from beginning to end. Is there a precise point where the clouds come over the sun of the eternal summer? Where the malaise of having reached the final sea overwhelms them?

the oddest thing about the litany of posts that are like “if we deport all the minorities everyone will be hot and young again” is that the actual most distinctive feature of the white race is that they are, uh, old

Stone fence posts are a thing.

You simply do not have to accept bright pink or yellow fiberglass insulation in your home. Choose wool instead which (similar to houseplants) contributes to indoor air quality instead of off-gassing chemicals into your home. You don’t even need to wear a mask when installing!

A truly transgressive film in 2025 would involve everyone's dogs suddenly turning on them due to a virus or something. People would walk out of theaters. Senators would campaign on banning.

What are we doing here

RIP!

Many haven't updated their worldviews in light of the fact that the "future" is coming from California and S. Texas. What you actually need to "get to the stars" is lots of gross GDP, lots of labor of all kinds, and concentration of elite global talent in one place.

VB Knives And the capital that funds it, once you get past the early venture stage, is coming from the northeast. The US has a capital hub in the NE, an innovation belt arching from florida along the southern border and up the west coast, and then some stuff inbetween that benefits

Formula and pumping are among those small technologies that have a massive social effect. Essentially created the idea of the husband as a second mother for infants. Before that many men never even changed a diaper, much less did baby feeding, etc.

Book content doesn't matter for most kids, because they won't read and also have unlocked smartphone at age 8. But at the same time bad books are a trojan horse aimed against the 5% of kids who matter most. Smart kids who read and *aren't* deliberately looking for bad stuff.

This would imply that the true place of origin for all Eurasian humans was the Zagros. The mixed Sapiens-Neanderthal species that we belong to did not exist before this.

There are more brown or "grizzly" bears (Ursus Arctos) in Japan than in the entire lower 48 of the USA. You can win bets with this factoid.

Teortaxes▶️ (DeepSeek 推特🐋铁粉 2023 – ∞) Iran is generally a pretty schizophrenic country. Theocracy that is autistic about headscarfs but 70% of university graduates are women. Don't have the nukes or fecundity of a Pakistan, but also not as modernist as a Turkey. Very weird.

Brutal.

Has Persian civilization as we know it reached its final decadence? Perhaps it could only be re-invigorated by another conquest from the East. Will a Pathan or a Tajik someday take the Peacock throne?
