Sarah Hoyt (who would know): A remembrance of May Days past.
[Wednesday-morning update]
I’ve never abandoned this blog, but I have been posting to it a lot less, for a number of reasons (less time, other outlets). I didn’t move to Facebook, but I do spend a lot more time on Twitter.

He didn’t just crush Cathy Newman in debate; he provided her with some much-needed therapy.

Conor Friedersdorph isn’t impressed with Newman.

Six words the Left twists to silence you.
He left out “liberal,” though that’s more of a false flag than to silence, per se.
