The West isn’t done yet.

[Scott Lewis @WarriorSpeech28]

I know that face.

That is a man who thought it was finished, every country in the West has that man on a car, scooter, a bus, a van, telling himself it is over.

When you see this the fire you had inside you that died reignites.

If you really want it, you can have it.

They say bells ring to ward off demons. Agreed we need more bells ringing.

[VanMan @Man_with_a_van]

We need to bring back giant bells that ring every hour. Iykyk

@TridentineBrew “Subordination of the state to Catholic principles.” Apparently we should worship the state?

@Cernovich Proof that the bureaucrats believe that the state is the only acceptable religion.

This is the priest who died on the Titanic to hear confessions and administer last rites.

Given the opportunity to board a lifeboat on two separate occasions, Father Thomas Byles firmly declined. He chose instead to stay behind, absolving sins and consoling the doomed passengers.

Following the vessel's collision with the iceberg, he assembled the remaining crowds on the aft deck.

Those who lived through the disaster recalled him standing bravely amid the panic, listening to confessions, granting collective absolution, and reciting the Rosary right up until the ocean claimed the stern.

This is the type of story we should elevate, heroic virtue. May the Lord bless us with more holy men possessing the courage of Father Thomas Byles.

@reddit_lies Frustrated mostly because she doesn’t appear smart enough to defend her own intellectual positions.

@JulieBorowski Absent a property requirement to vote, democracy devolves into which political figure can give the most away.

Interesting theory of depression worth sharing.

[Elliot Overton @EO_Nutrition]

One theory states that depression is the human equivalent of "sickness behavior" in animals

A beneficial adaptation to chronic neuroinflammation, which serves to conserve energy and protect the organism through immobilization

- Social isolation and decreased physical activity
- Fatigue, apathy, and decreased curiosity
- Heightened sensitivity to pain
- Downregulation of energy expenditure
- Re-allocation of resources to promote tissue repair and immune modulation
- Substantial changes to autonomic nervous system tone, the HPA axis, and sex hormones

All of which are characteristics found in sick/infected animals out in the wild, who will seek refuge in a quiet place

Ultimately, an adaptation designed to promote liklihood of survival

I find it compelling

Most patients diagnosed with depression would probably benefit from comprehensive strategies aimed at calming neuroinflammation

Instead, they are prescribed mind-altering drugs (some of which, ironically, display anti-neuroinflammatory properties)

Shame
