The Maoist ‘Exceptionalism’ at the Heart of China’s COVID Strategy
Arguably the best known contemporary proponent of Chinese exceptionalism in the English-language is Martin Jacques, best known for his 2009 bestseller When China Rules the World, a tour-de-force in the repackaging of orientalist tropes for the 21st-century. By framing China as a historically and culturally unique “civilisational-state,” Jacques has spent the past decade or so reinforcing the idea that China is so radically different from most other entities in world history that the only possible way to possibly understand it is through an unabashed cultural relativism. This has lea... read more

ICYMI: Van Gogh Edition (2/20)
Yesterday, as our Valentine's Day outing, the CMO (Chief Marital Officer) and I went to see the Van Gogh immersive art thingy, Pittsburgh edition. Much of what I know about Impressionism I learned by reading my daughter's college papers, because she is the art whiz in the family. It was an unusual and beautiful experience. Very cool.

IRS Expected to Stand Up Another ‘Surge Team’ to Tackle Backlog
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *2022 Tax Season, United States* The IRS is reassigning additional employees from other duties to assist with the backlog of unprocessed tax returns. National Taxpayer Advocate Erin Collins said during a congressional hearing on Thursday that the Internal Revenue Service is expected to stand up a second “surge team” to address its backlog of unprocessed tax returns. The IRS already made the decision to temporarily reassign about 1,200 employees to the frontlines of a daunting tax season to help with the backlog.

Sunday morning music
It's about time for a relaxing Celtic approach to music. Robin Bullock is famous across America for his Celtic instrumental playing on guitar, mandolin and other instruments, and his collaboration with other musicians. He lives in North Carolina, but travels the country almost every year on a music tour, or to work with other players, or to teach a masterclass to eager students. I find his music pleasing to the ear and - because I like Celtic music in general - pleasantly relaxing. I listen to him primarily as background music when I write. I don't have to pay particular at... read more

Peter Hitchens has the BBC squarely in his sights in his *Mail on Sunday* column this week. I'm rather proud of having helped him, ever so slightly, by using TVEyes to track down all the broadcasts of the offending Orla Guerin report for him. I suspected he was going after her usual mawkish, award-winning purple prose. But, no, he was concerned about something more specific.

The earnings announcement led shares to fall by 20 percent to their lowest level since the early days of the pandemic.

edge of war
US officials said on Feb. 18 that nearly 190,000 Russian troops now surround Ukraine, a number far higher than the 150,000 figure that most intelligence reports suggested only 48 hours ago. An unnamed US military official told CNN that “this is the most significant military mobilization in Europe since World War II.” US intelligence has estimated that Russia would gather a minimum of 175,000 troops at Ukraine’s frontiers before an assault could begin. Other intelligence estimates believe that a half million troops would be needed for a full out assault on the country. US and NATO o... read more

Harry de Quetteville, special correspondent at *The Telegraph*, has a report on one epidemiologist's view of how we reacted to Covid. Of relevance to this blog, Prof Mark Woolhouse of the University of Edinburgh has some things to say about the BBC's role during the pandemic. See what you think: Yet the Government decided that telling half the population that they were at extremely low risk would dilute adherence to the harsh rules it was imposing, and instead ramped up the threat warnings. “We are all at risk,” noted Michael Gove in March 2020. “The virus does not discriminate.”... read more
