It's been 40 years since Duran Duran hung out with Tom, which means it's time once again for them to return.  It's a law of nature, like salmon returning to where they were born.  Or like Nicolas Cage coming out of pseudo-retirement.  Or like Nicolas Cage getting married.

Hate crimes are all the rage right now.  Everyone wants to find one.  There's one problem though: there just aren't enough of them to go around, so people are counterfeiting.  They're making their own, and it's just not the same as the real thing.  Beware of social media posts that promise a deal that seems to good to be true, like offering victimhood status for coincidentally stumbling upon some racist graffiti.  Seriously though, real hate crimes are no joke and come at a price you don't want to pay.  They're not a way to gain Twitter clout.  Stop commodifying racial animus.

Mark could be considered as something of a provocateur.  Just read the title of his book for proof.  But even when he's just making objective observations, he's still labeled a reactionary or extremist.  If this sounds relevant to your own life, then you're part of what must be 95% of Americans at this point.  It happens to us all.  We live in an age that demands absolute ideological purity, and what is considered "pure" changes by the day.  Eventually, people are going to realize that the only winning move is not to play.  But first, they have to grow up.  Good luck getting that to happen.

Can you name a more Saturday Morning Cartoon type of evil than taking money from starving children?  And yet it happens.  Just recently, in fact, and in Minneapolis.  Because of course it was in Minneapolis.  Outside of Minneapolis we've got corporate espionage, bio-labs that are simultaneously real and not real, accusations of treason, and all the other fun stuff that comes with living in the 2020s.
