My friend moved to New England from North Carolina and said New Englanders are the most unique people she's met. She didn't quite mean it as a compliment.

It's absolutely a fact that New England feels distinctly odd to someone from Upstate New York.

It's almost indescribable; perhaps akin to the odd sensation a Welshman might feel on a trip to Cornwall.

The people look pastier, the bars are stuffier, speed limits are lower, and the scenes around the countryside look more like a painting I could never afford to live in than like a gritty apocalyptic movie set.

It always seems sunnier there, and richer too. Certainly more liberals as well -- lots of Rainbow Flags and IPA's. But even the grungy, conservative side of New England feels unfamiliar somehow. Clannish, unapproachable, stiff. Their people mumble quietly while ours intermittently grunt and hoot. Their poor people are scrawny and Anglo while ours are fat Italo-Franco-Micks and red-faced German drunks.

And in NYS, the corruption colors everything somehow; you can somehow "feel" it oozing off of everything. Our evil overlords are not trim-and-tidy Cambridge-adjacent technocrats, as with New England's -- but cartoonish mobsters and wine-drunk swinger soccer mom types. Their upper class wears crisp white polos and loafers -- ours wear ill-fitting JC Penny suits and sport bald heads and sauce-dribbled double-chins.

I truly feel like I'm in a foreign country when I'm there; it's a lot like going to Canada. If I blur my eyes it looks the same, but when I examine almost anything closely, it's distinctly foreign. This is not a feeling I get in, say, Michigan or Wisconsin.

@DirtyErnieDeux @IlSporcoErnesto Has his anti baroque moments.

Good evening from New England

[Alexander Crummell @afrotrad]

@DirtyErnieDeux Even when I dislike things, I can usually or sometimes understand the appeal. But this is asinine. What's supposed to be impressive about this dancing

[Alexander Crummell @afrotrad]

@JLevendia @Haunt_Fox @jkrwld He's hilarious.

@lilchiva @kuchisakeonnax Very subtle way to answer the JQ.

[Ferenc Hörcher @HorcherF]

Have you heard about the
Russell Kirk - F. A. Hayek debate about liberalism - conservatism.
It happened in 1957 at a meeting of the Mont Pelerin Society.
You find details in this piece by @bradleybirzer:

[SamuelGoldman @SWGoldman]

Much commentary on this. I read it as an admission that the UofC is throwing in the towel on liberal education. Will students still pay to hang around a research institute for natural and quantitative sciences that offers business degrees on the side? I truly don’t know.

[SamuelGoldman @SWGoldman]

Harvard and maybe ten peers offer genuine status advantages. Other places are Fun. Yet others are cheap. A few “weirdo colleges” (@bradleybirzer) emphasize serious study. But it’s hard for me the understand why anyone would pay anything approaching full freight for AIU.

@SeanTrende Bill Clinton in 1990s (referencing Mario Cuomo): nobody whose name ends with a vowel will ever be president.

[Kevin Scott Douglas @KevinSDouglas]

@SeanTrende Another observation, every Democratic president from LBJ to Clinton came from the South. Is it an exaggeration to say that white Southerners picked the president in every race from 1964 to 2008? That derailed many candidacies. But I’m spitballing.

[Alexander Crummell @afrotrad]

@Snarkyloser @SeanTrende I couldn't picture one winning until fairly recently , say 1980 or so.

[Steve Sailer @Steve_Sailer]

@SeanTrende The remarkable bias of American voters for only electing Presidents with roots in Northwest Europe (with the vast majority of Presidents tracing to the British Isles) offers some insights into the old "Who is a REAL American?" debate, as I explained here:

[Steve Sailer @Steve_Sailer]

@SeanTrende Trump's mother arrived from the Scottish Highland islands in 1930.

Trump is an Ellis Islander, but we don't think of him that way because not many German and British Ellis Island immigrants stayed in New York City, even though many started there.
