Now, 52% of young adults live with their parents—the highest rate ever, surpassing even the Great Depression.
The most educated and most indebted generation in history did everything they were supposed to do and got this.
The system. Does. Not. Work.
anyone else mildly concerned by the seemingly increasing number of images and videos of armed foreigners dangerously "practicing" in the woods?
makes you wonder what they're training for 🤔
Dutch men are the tallest people on earth, and the moment you say so, someone tells you it is genetics. Tall Dutch parents, tall Dutch children, a gene pool selected for height. Case closed.
It is a fair objection. It also happens to be measurable, and somebody measured it.
Researchers ran the numbers on whether natural selection could account for the Dutch becoming giants. Taller Dutch men do have slightly more children, so there is a real evolutionary nudge in play. They modelled it out across six generations and found the effect added up to roughly three millimetres. Three.
Over that same century and a half, the Dutch gained around twenty centimetres. Two hundred millimetres of height, of which selection can claim about three.
The other 197 came from somewhere else, and it is no mystery. In the 1860s the Dutch were among the shortest people in Europe, well below average, shorter than the Americans who then towered over them. Then they built the most dairy-soaked food culture on the continent. Cheese at breakfast. Milk at every meal. Butter on everything. Close to a kilogram of dairy per person per day, held there for generations.
Same genes at the start. The selection did almost nothing on the timescale that mattered. What changed is that an entire nation started drinking the exact liquid a calf uses to double its size, drinking it by the bucket, and never stopping.
Genetics loads the gun. It is milk that pulls the trigger, and the Dutch pulled it harder than anyone alive.
Never forget what Victor Marx texted Erika Kirk after her husband was assassinated in board daylight.
"No one is going to kill you. You’re safe, you and the kids. They just wanted Charlie."
But who is "they"?
‼️BREAKING DETAILS regarding the Victoria machete attack:
20-year-old Hussein Saadedeen is now charged
one of the female victims said it started when they tried to get her to "come for a walk" at knifepoint
“If that machete was any sharper, there would have been dead people.”
For every half wit still swallowing the "Russia is targeting civillians" lie
Time to wake up.
You can literally see the Ukrainian munitions striking civillians homes, the Patriot missiles hitting apartment buildings.
Elaine Chao’s mysterious and untimely trip to China needs to be investigated. It was not just unusual that while her husband being on his deathbed, but what was she needed to tell China in such a hurry? McConnell had access to a lot of national security information, post his dead, China likes to get its hands on those information. Is Elaine some kinda Chinese agent? Just asking.
The message of this World Cup is that diversity is the source of competence, strength, and communal skill.
Then, as if out of nowhere, a blonde beast, a Viking Goliath, a pale Hyperborean - like someone from an ancestral era that knows nothing of egalitarian abstractions - shows the world what strength, competence, and skill truly are.
The Multiculturalist Leviathan can lie as much as it wants, but there is one thing it will never be able to do: defeat reality and nature.
I don’t want to seem hypocritical, since I had called for a boycott of World Cup. But this Nordic beast of prey made me change my mind. I’m going to watch and cheer for Norway.
The best striker on earth and the best chess player on earth both come from a tiny nation of just 5 million people.
That same nation also happens to have the one of the most billionaires per capita in the world.
Norway is truly exceptional.
Name the plant-based Haaland.
We were promised a whole generation of them. Game Changers, the Beyond Meat adverts, Veganuary wheeling out a fresh athlete every January. A marketing industry the size of a small country, all of it built on the promise that the future of elite sport is leaves.
So where is he. The plant-based striker putting the five-time champions out of a World Cup. The plant-based apex of any explosive power sport, right at the top, ten years deep, no loopholes.
Football's flagship is Messi, who goes plant-based in season and quietly eats meat the rest of the year. The genuinely committed list gets shorter the higher you look, and roughly five in six who go vegan are back on meat within a few years anyway.
A colossal budget, a documentary a year, and not one apex to show for it. Meanwhile the best striker alive is buying raw milk at a farm gate on his way to the quarter-final.
