The Mental-Health “Experts”
Time to dethrone them.
Yes, the gun grabbers want to grab the guns, while ignoring the real common element here. And experts in general, whether in nutrition, climate or otherwise, seem to be highly overrated, which is one of the things that gave us Trump.
Claire Lehmann And Quillette
An interesting story on a provocative, but necessary web site.
Reason At Fifty
Matt Welch describes the history of the magazine. I just finished Bob Poole’s new book
The Gender World
Camille Paglia says it’s time for a new map. As always, a fascinating interview with La Camille.
The Sex Recession
A long but interesting dive into why young people aren’t getting it on. Among other things, it confirms my long-standing suspicion that ubiquitous porn is making for a lot of terrible and painful sex for women, because too many men think that what is depicted is normal, or expected. And the sad thing is that many women apparently just accept that as the way it is. Anyway, modern dating sounds awful, in part thanks to #MeToo, particularly on campus.
Exo-Mars
Bob Zimmerman examines the planned landing site.
“It’s OK To Be White”
No, the phrase is not racist, but objecting to it is. Great trolling of the SJWs.

Enceladus
Breakthrough and NASA have signed a Space Act Agreement for support of a private mission. This is the most likely way for it to happen, and it will probably happen before a Europa mission (it probably would have even with Culberson, given the requirement to use SLS).
