On Pausing Alcohol "Always carry a flask of whiskey in case of snakebite, and furthermore always carry a small snake." -- W. C. Fields About six months ago, I stopped drinking alcohol. I feel much better, and I’m mad as hell about it. I never really drank through my 20s and…

I called it on March 27, 2020. The popular bill to spend $2 trillion dollars and shut down our economy was “the biggest mistake in history.” That bill and subsequent bills that spent another $4 trillion are the reasons we now have shortages and inflation.
Tomorrow is the 106th Anniversary of the Battle of the Somme to relieve the French at Verdun. In a single day it's the biggest loss of life in British history with 19,240 dead & 57,470 casualties. You had a 50% chance of being killed or a casualty when you went "over the top."
1/ Starting a company is hard. It's way more stressful & lonely than most admit. Industry has been a cheerleader for years. But failures will go up exponentially now. I urge temperance in your urge to dunk on founders or funders who struggle. Humiliation + depression is dangerous

Right -- it's actually the government that is entitled to the presumption of secrecy. That is clearly the new liberal value. I'm sure these liberals would've been just fine granting the same pro-secrecy benefit of the doubt to the Trump Administration as it waged proxy warfare

These crimes have been admitted: "I was an artillery officer, and we fired hundreds of rounds into Fallujah, killed probably hundreds of civilians... women and children." But the person who made this admission wasn't prosecuted -- he was elected to Congress. Duncan Hunter (R-CA)
Wait, I thought the entire world was totally united against Russia? Now Putin is winning “referendums” in countries that share a border with Ukraine?
@phl43 @mtracey @AJDelgado13 “Whataboutism” is sometimes a derailing tactic. But most of the time now people scream “whataboutism” to avoid anyone probing their thought for moral coherence.
This is one of the most influential National Security Journalists in the US saying you’d have to be motivated by a desire to help Russia to seek further information about a secret US tank transfer plan. Another great example of what it means to practice Serious Journalism
Alright everyone, time to take another look at Oryx's Russian vehicle loss claims. The last two nights I've examined easy cases - the T-72B3 Obr. 2016 and the BMP-3. Both of those are only used by the Russians, so misattribution risk was low. Today we're looking at the BMP-2.
@Cernovich America does not go abroad "in search of monsters to destroy...[America's] glory is not dominion, but liberty." - John Quincy Adams Our Founders warned us repeatedly about the dangers of getting entangled in Europe's wars.
Men now comprise only 40.5% of college students and are failing in high school at much higher rates. There’s a crisis among American boys and men that is too often ignored and is definitely going unaddressed.
If COVID therapeutics are going to be distributed based on race, and we are free to self-identify, I call that a solved problem.

My book What's Our Problem? is now available. The book introduces a new framework for thinking about our chaotic political environment. With 303 drawings, it's a toolbox for understanding our societies, our group dynamics, and our own minds. Get it here: waitbutwhy.com/whatsourproblem
@Cernovich @Delicious_Tacos At 35 I was addicted to many street drugs. Bitter and unemployed after working for a failed startup. Wife hated me, I hated myself. Just turned 40. I'm 70 pounds lighter, back in uni, making $80k/yr, wife no longer hates me, and we're on track to buy a house next summer.
@Cernovich Indeed- my life story at 44. Divorced, unemployed & drinking like a fish. That was 17 years ago- sober since then, remarried to the mother of our children, employed by the same company the entire time, & very happy. Never give up and never lose hope.
A 35 year old man could be a total loser, turn it around, and at 40 do most anything with rest of his life. Not talked about often enough, and why it’s pointless to despair.
I called it on March 27, 2020. The popular bill to spend $2 trillion dollars and shut down our economy was “the biggest mistake in history.” That bill and subsequent bills that spent another $4 trillion are the reasons we now have shortages and inflation.

Call it "whataboutism," I don't care: it's impossible to take seriously this sudden newfound concern for "war crimes" coming from some of the same exact people who never gave a crap about similar or worse "crimes" committed in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, etc.
Blinken said yesterday that he "can't get into" whether this report is accurate, and that the US will now be sending tanks into Ukraine. According to the Biden Administration, the public has no right to know the details of these daily escalations in an intensifying US proxy war
Right -- it's actually the government that is entitled to the presumption of secrecy. That is clearly the new liberal value. I'm sure these liberals would've been just fine granting the same pro-secrecy benefit of the doubt to the Trump Administration as it waged proxy warfare
@mtracey The public is not always entitled to be notified of military actions. You know that. Seconding what Mark Salter said.
These crimes have been admitted: "I was an artillery officer, and we fired hundreds of rounds into Fallujah, killed probably hundreds of civilians... women and children." But the person who made this admission wasn't prosecuted -- he was elected to Congress. Duncan Hunter (R-CA)
