  • Why Are Americans Bowling Alone While Aussies Bowl Together? (12-7-21)
    "In the presence of [ethnic] diversity, we hunker down. We act like turtles. The effect of diversity is worse than had been imagined. And it’s not just that we don’t trust people who are not like us. In diverse communities, we don’t trust people who do look like us."
    —Harvard professor Robert D. Putnam
    Steve Sailer writes: It was one of the more irony-laden incidents in the history of celebrity social scientists. While in Sweden to receive a $50,000 academic prize as political science professor of the year, Harvard’s Robert D. Putnam, a former Carter administration official who made his reputation writing about the decline of social trust in America in his bestseller Bowling Alone, confessed to Financial Times columnist John Lloyd that his latest research discovery—that ethnic diversity decreases trust and co-operation in communities—was so explosive that for the last half decade he hadn’t dared announce it “until he could develop proposals to compensate for the negative effects of diversity, saying it ‘would have been irresponsible to publish without that.’”
    In a column headlined “Harvard study paints bleak picture of ethnic diversity,” Lloyd summarized the results of the largest study ever of “civic engagement,” a survey of 26,200 people in 40 American communities:
    When the data were adjusted for class, income and other factors, they showed that the more people of different races lived in the same community, the greater the loss of trust. ‘They don’t trust the local mayor, they don’t trust the local paper, they don’t trust other people and they don’t trust institutions,’ said Prof Putnam. ‘The only thing there’s more of is protest marches and TV watching.’
    Lloyd noted, “Prof Putnam found trust was lowest in Los Angeles, ‘the most diverse human habitation in human history.’”
    As if to prove his own point that diversity creates minefields of mistrust, Putnam later protested to the Harvard Crimson that the Financial Times essay left him feeling betrayed, calling it “by two degrees of magnitude, the worst experience I have ever had with the media.” To Putnam’s horror, hundreds of “racists and anti-immigrant activists” sent him e-mails congratulating him for finally coming clean about his findings.

  • The Non-Religious Synagogue (12-7-21)
    From Wikipedia: The Hebrew Bible, a religious interpretation of the traditions and early history of the Jews, established the first of the Abrahamic religions, which are now practiced by 54 percent of the world. Judaism guides its adherents in both practice and belief, and has been called not only a religion, but also a "way of life,"[135] which has made drawing a clear distinction between Judaism, Jewish culture, and Jewish identity rather difficult. Throughout history, in eras and places as diverse as the ancient Hellenic world,[136] in Europe before and after The Age of Enlightenment (see Haskalah),[137] in Islamic Spain and Portugal,[138] in North Africa and the Middle East,[138] India,[139] China,[140] or the contemporary United States[141] and Israel,[142] cultural phenomena have developed that are in some sense characteristically Jewish without being at all specifically religious. Some factors in this come from within Judaism, others from the interaction of Jews or specific communities of Jews with their surroundings, and still others from the inner social and cultural dynamics of the community, as opposed to from the religion itself. This phenomenon has led to considerably different Jewish cultures unique to their own communities.

  • Aussie PM Pushes Voter Id Laws (12-6-21)
    https://www.unz.com/isteve/biden-explains-we-must-stop-stigmatizing-men-who-spread/
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/australia-voter-id-scott-morrison/2021/11/23/d666d5e6-4b31-11ec-a7b8-9ed28bf23929_story.html
    A reader emails: Australia is a totalitarian control grid. There is no dignity of the human being left untouched if government wants to touch it. It has no constitutional culture, no culture of liberty and cultural respect for due process no instinctive disgust of government intrusion.
    The most basic building block for family formation, a family home to live in, is considered by almost all Australians, to be merely an investment scheme for pumping up a sky high, psychotic real estate ponzi scheme, the birthrate plummets and is made up for by immigrants.
    Traffic laws insane, big fines for driving even five kilometers over the limit, or three miles in imperial. Car registration costs $800 per year per car. Time zone always wildly hard to call the other side of the world. No right to even defend your own home with a gun from home invaders.
    The ease with which the leftist government take away liberties is just stunning. A whimper of protest is all that ever results.
    No free speech. The regime arbitrarily bans foreign right wing speakers from coming here on a speaking tour, Milo is banned, Gavin McInmes banned, many others banned.
    Red tape and regulations on everything, a weir supermarket monopoly or duopoly of Coles and Woolworths with $60 packets of cigarettes. Completely impossible to find an old school Aussie pub they are all overpriced santised places. No variety of states, each state is a totalitarian leftist control grid. Some more insanely far left than others. No conservative towns or cities. Cultural hatred of colonial and anglo history. Land acknowledgement insanity even at private weddings.
    Insane restraining order laws, feminist deletion of due process in courts, "affirmative consent" lawsz easy, very easy to be ailed for false rape accusations. Imagine if PBS and NPR had 20% of the media market in the US, the leftist ABC is this powerful!
    No vibrant culture war or pubic debate on anything, far left climate alarmism is just assumed to be necessary policy by both sides of the aisle One in four women have had abortions. The aussie accent on a woman is grating. The men have lost testosterone in last few decades so even their voices are annoying as fuck, very few Aussie men have a deep voice anymore.
    Angry hectoring signs and rules and prohibitions everywhere in public. Not a democracy, a full fledged academic run technocratic bureaucracy state. Vaping is banned without a prescription, it is illegal to open a vape store, academics decided this not government, many such cases. No probable cause needed for traffic stops. None needed for car searches. Strip searches common by police. Centralised statewide police forces mean more top down command and control totalitarian policing, no such thing as a city or county police.
    All forced psychiatric commitments and forced drugging is done extrajudicial, thousands of aussies rot in mental hospitals without any due process. No day in court. No culture of liberty and mistrust of big government. A nation of compliant sheep, founded by prison guards two hundred an fifty years ago ad still run by prison guards. Nothing ever happen in the news. So everyone follows American news.
    Bizarre total acceptance of 10% of everyone's salary being denied to them until age 65 in the superannuation forced saving for retirement scheme. High taxes. Endless snooping powers of taxation authorities.

  • One For The Books By Joe Queenan (12-6-21)
    News: And How to Use It by Alan Rusbridger, https://www.amazon.com/News-How-Use/dp/B087D519TP/
    https://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/27/books/review/one-for-the-books-by-joe-queenan.html
    "By Joe Queenan’s reckoning, in his 62 years of life he has read at least 6,128 books. Should he continue to read at his current clip (100 to 200 books annually), he calculates that given natural life expectancy, he has only some 2,138 books to go. The clock is ticking, he warns, for him and for us all. If that makes you want to abandon this review immediately and grab the nearest Dostoyevsky, no hard feelings.
    Queenan, now a columnist for The Wall Street Journal, is a famously dyspeptic humorist and self-proclaimed “sneering churl.” But in “One for the Books,” a gathering of essays, parts of which appeared in these pages, he is mostly in celebratory mode, writing of his love of literature. It is a stalker-ish love, in which he reads every­where (at wakes, during Jerry Garcia guitar solos) and anything (Pamela Anderson’s “Star: A Novel,” Geraldo Rivera’s memoir), and in spare moments fetishistically rearranges his personal collection of 1,374 tomes by height, thickness and author’s nationality.
    While hardly monogamous — he always has at least 15 books going at once — Queenan is a wholehearted lover, surprisingly vulnerable to the slightest volume, as ready to give himself to a novella about a cross-dressing Mexico City hairdresser as to “Northanger Abbey.” He will slog to the end of even a turgid, minor work by a beloved author, so as not to seem ungrateful."

  • Could Omicron Be Like Cowpox?(12-4-21)
    WP: Omicron possibly more infectious because it shares genetic code with common cold coronavirus, study says...The omicron variant is likely to have picked up genetic material from another virus that causes the common cold in humans, according to a new preliminary study, prompting one of its authors to suggest omicron could have greater transmissibility but lower virulence than other variants of the coronavirus. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/12/04/omicron-coronavirus-transmissible-cold-variant/
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Jenner, https://dermnetnz.org/topics/cowpox
    "Experts now believe it's unlikely that the coronavirus will either be eradicated from the globe, like smallpox has been, or even eliminated in the United States, as polio was following near-universal vaccination. The combination of rapid mutations and too-low vaccination rates make it likely that covid-19 won't follow smallpox and polio into submission.
    "This will more likely be the influenza model, where we have to track mutations annually and alter the boosters accordingly," Schaffner said. In fact, he said, efforts to create combined coronavirus-flu shots are already underway." https://www.news-medical.net/news/20211130/Omicron-and-other-coronavirus-variants-What-you-need-to-know.aspx
    https://edition.cnn.com/2021/12/02/health/us-coronavirus-thursday/index.html
    https://edition.cnn.com/2021/12/01/health/covid-19-omicron-vaccinated-wellness/index.html
    (CNN) Doctors don't know yet exactly how well the current Covid-19 vaccines protect people against the new Omicron variant that is now in the US, but what they do know is that people shouldn't wait to get a vaccine or booster.
    "Getting the maximum protection now is more important than ever and it's not just because of Omicron," US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy told CNN Tuesday.

  • Feelings, Recovery And The Alexander Technique (12-5-21)
    Alexander Technique and Beauty: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=40410 "When we stop interfering with ourselves, when we stop pulling down and in, when we stop unnecessarily holding ourselves, when we let go of needless stiffness and tension, then our real selves can blossom. One of the major areas of the body where people hold excess tension is in the face. A tense face is not attractive. By contrast, when people stop furrowing their brows and tensing around the eyes and lips and jaw, then they can come alive. It’s intoxicating to talk to a person who’s alive to the present moment and you can see their thoughts and feelings write themselves across their face."
    Psycho-therapist and Alexander Technique teacher Anthony Kingsley tells Robert Rickover: “Alexander Technique develops capacities for stillness, non-reactivity and inhibition, the capacity to not rush ahead and finish people’s sentences.”
    “The pupil can say, ahh, I know I’m really holding myself, I’m gripping my jaw, I’m tightening my neck as a way of not feeling anxious or sad. I might bite my upper lip to not cry. I might tighten my breathing to not feel alarmed. I may hold my shoulders hunched and compressed as a way of not feeling my own anger. Alexander Technique makes a direct link between emotions and physical manifestations of emotion.” https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=35977
