[Dr. Sheila Nazarian @sheilanazarian]

I want to ask the students screaming “Death to America”, do you have any idea what happens when American values die?

Because I do.

My family fled Iran, a country where freedom died. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.

You think America is oppressive because you have never experienced real oppression.

You think silence is violence because you’ve never been silenced.

You think words are dangerous because you have never watched a government drag someone away for speaking them.

You think capitalism is evil because you have never stood in a bread line.

You think borders are immoral because you have never had to flee across one.

You think revolution is romantic because you have never had a revolution take everything from you.

I have.

And that’s why I refuse to be quiet.

Bret Weinstein said something that won’t leave my head:
For the first time in 300,000 years of human evolution, we removed the cost from the single biggest reward nature ever invented — sex and pair-bonding.

Reliable birth control + abortion = you can now cash the evolutionary lottery ticket without paying the 20-year mortgage of pregnancy, diapers, sleepless nights, and college funds.

Result? An entire generation of 18–35-year-olds walking around with the energy, libido, hormones, and protective instincts that evolution spent millions of years calibrating for child-rearing… but with zero actual children. That energy didn’t disappear. It got redirected.

Heather Heying’s observation is brutal: young women especially began treating ideologies the exact way evolution wired them to treat babies. Climate change, social justice, whatever the cause of the month is — it gets defended with literal mama-bear ferocity, the same neurochemistry that once guarded a toddler from predators now guards an abstract idea from wrong think.

And now Elon is promising the second shoe is about to drop: AI-driven abundance will make money as “free” as sex became in the 1970s. Both of evolution’s primary carrots — mating and resource acquisition suddenly cost almost nothing.

Weinstein’s ice-cold question: When producing and protecting actual children is no longer the central organizing principle of adult life… and when creating wealth is no longer required for status, security, or attracting a mate…What is left to give a human life direction, meaning, and structure?

Are we about to become a species that invents bigger and bigger dragons to slay just to feel alive? Or do we drift into total listlessness? This 3:52 clip is genuinely haunting.

Watch it all the way through, then tell me — honestly — does this explain the absolute intensity we’re seeing in culture right now, or is Bret completely missing something?

Real answers only. Quote-post if it hits you in the chest like it hit me.

@collinsworth55 Standard Time but will take either

[JT Power @JTPower]

Bison gives his side of the story.

[Fugitive Caesar @ThomBrady5]

That's right, none of this was real

[Jenn Pellegrino 🇺🇸 @JennPellegrino]

I can't believe this is real.

The Chancellor of UC San Francisco testified under oath that a "vast majority of pregnancies are in women." Implying some pregnancies occur in men.

When asked directly whether a non-biological woman has ever had a baby, he refused to answer. This is the head of one of the top medical schools in the country.

@proj_true_north “Affordable”

Beautiful

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

Requiring an ID and proof of citizenship to vote is common sense.

It’s time to pass the SAVE America Act. RT if you agree.

@BernieSanders @peggyflanagan @IlhanMN @keithellison Can we get politicians who want to take on the greed of the permanent political class?

@MeatSauce1 Any time after 8am is ok in my book. I have more of an issue with people mowing their yards at 8 pm…

[Gad Saad @GadSaad]

Indeed.

How come everyone forces introverts to leave their comfort zone for a while but no one forces extroverts to shut the fuck up for a while

[Gray Squirrel @Gray_Squirrel72]

@KSTP A government program that exceeds cost expectations? What are the odds??

Don’t worry, Dems have necessary tax hikes ready to go.

@repmattdean @mitchpberg I would love to see average weight and race times over this same period. I suspect this move is truly aimed at placating the folks who think 6 hour marathon is a noteworthy accomplishment

@ace_9292 @pmarca Question: if trump proposed this tomorrow you’d have the same response right? I mean, you shouldn’t get to spew hate in Trumps America amirite?

[Gray Squirrel @Gray_Squirrel72]

@livpganhlstats @RGIII So sorry this is happening to you

[Patrick @PhillyPMC]

So the USSF followed the appropriate protocols to appeal the red card. And the 18 person committee determined what we have acknowledged all along: the red card was improperly given, and Balogun should play. This is the same process that has been used to overturn the suspension of 4 other players in this World Cup. I fail to see the issue here.

Senator Mitch McConnell has now been hospitalized for three weeks. The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated, especially given that his wife, Elaine Chao, appeared in China just days after his hospitalization to meet with high-ranking Chinese officials. The question now is about national security: if Senator McConnell has been unable to independently perform his duties, what safeguards exist to ensure classified intelligence briefings, defense appropriations information, or other sensitive congressional matters could not be accessed, discussed, or shared by individuals operating behind the scenes? And given the timing of Chao’s meeting with China’s vice president, what exactly was discussed?
