When you are born, you still have strings attached (the umbilical cord). But children also mentally enmesh themselves with their mothers. As puberty hits, children are supposed to individuate from their mothers and become independent, emotionally healthy people. Unless you’ve been cut loose too soon.

I discuss the book by Richard Reeves. Feminists proclaim that machines will replace men’s muscle, and girls will replace boys in every other field. I say feminists are deluding themselves.

I prepared a speech to signal the start of a New Age, an age of Great Works. Since the 17 SDIs (Sustainable Development Goals) of the United Nations don’t inspire anyone, we ought to think of 12 Herculean Works instead, works to be complete before the end of this century.

Inflation leads to recession, and recession leads to depression (massive unemployment). Western economies are trying to avoid doom by inflating the money supply to increase government spending, and by opening the borders to bring in more potential consumers for the economy. But both are temporary fixes that cannot solve the problem, namely that materialism has run out of steam. If we want to survive, we must return our peoples to more traditional lifestyles.

In his own words, Ricky Gervais makes himself the butt of his jokes. He’s the silly white man who gets things wrong. But he wasn’t the first to practice self-deprecating comedy. Stars like John Cleese (Fawlty Towers) or Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) preceded him. Being able to laugh at oneself is certainly a confidence-boosting trait—until it becomes anti-white racism. Has comedy that makes white men look stupid gone too far?

What do U.S. higher education fees have in common with housing pricing in The Netherlands? Both are based on projected household incomes. In other words, you pay the price of whatever loan you are expected to be able to pay back. And as incomes start to drop in a slumping economy, the West is a Ponzi scheme waiting to blow up.

In our material cultures, we believe our problem have chemical origins and can be cured by taking material medicine: pills, powders, syrups, ointments, and chemical injections. But aren’t we neglecting the spiritual dimension of our reality? Taking testosterone supplements won’t make you a man. Facing the threat of pain, torture, and death will.
