I was there for about 10 hours — afternoon to midnight — and here are some of my observations. 1. It was a huge crowd — estimates range from 700,000... read more
Is it possible that moonbats can't see how utterly crazy they've become?
As evidence, I offer you this article. A 'uterus-shaped' cereal has been launched with the goal of putting conversations about periods on the table. Feminine care brand Intimina developed its raspberry-flavoured 'Period Crunch' to encourage families to discuss menstruation more openly at breakfast. Despite being marketed as womb-shaped, the cereal actually resembles the entire female reproductive system. The wheat-based cereal ... is dyed red to mimic the colour of blood. Intimina claims conversations about periods are not 'truly normalised' and it wanted to 'make a stateme... read more

We strongly recommend Ezra Klein's essay!
*TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2022* *We disagree with Drum: *In a new post, Kevin Drum offers a "counsel of despair concerning mass shootings." He begins his post like this: DRUM (5/31/22):* I am one of those terrible liberals who has long-since given up on gun control and mass shootings.* The pro-gun sentiment in America—even if it's not a majority—is far too strong to permit any meaningful firearm legislation. Combine that with a pro-gun Supreme Court and I'm unable to see even the slim possibility of any serious regulation in the near or medium-term future. I've never been interested in p... read more
