This is extremely explanatory, and extremely terrifying. I love women as individuals, but we should be societally terrified of them as groups. It’s why many people, including many women, think that it was a mistake to give them the vote. It makes me think that if we were to return to literacy tests to vote, maybe we should have some emotional ones as well. It would exclude many men, but probably many more women.

How We Became Fat-Phobic
The message is finally getting out.
For decades, Americans have been “fat-phobic,” believing saturated fats to be one of the leading contributors to heart disease. Dr. Nina Teicholz, founder of The Nutrition Coalition, debunks this idea popularized by one scientist in the twentieth century.

I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that Ancel Keys was an unwitting mass murderer.

The vaccine announcement was delayed for political reasons to help Biden win the election.

We need to call out the lunacy wherever we find it, and protect our right to self defense.

Question asked: Why are there so many “trans” mass shooters?
The trans ideologists have been lying, and ruining the lives of confused and vulnerable people.
Yes, thank you RFK, Jr. It’s not about the guns. It’s a mental-health crisis caused by “medication.”

New Guidelines On Blood Pressure
Much of which is BS.
There is zero scientific basis for thinking that eating low-fat foods will reduce blood pressure.
A Floor Wax AND A Dessert Topping
It looks like both Cialis and Viagra, but especially Cialis (and the generic versions) are protective against heart disease and dementia. For both men and women. There don’t seem to be any downsides, and they don’t cost that much.

I don’t know if I mentioned it, but I had a hernia repaired a couple weeks ago, and I’ve been having some post-surgery complications. I’ve also been writing an op-ed for the WSJ, and answers to FAQs for the Reason project. We’re going to Vegas on Monday for the AIAA ASCEND meeting, where we’ll be all week.
For those concerned, though, I should be fully recovered and back up to speed by next weekend.
[Monday-morning update]
Driving to Vegas today for AIAA/ASCEND. I’ll try to check in during the week from there.
