We are bequeathing to the next generation Lysenkoist universities and professionals like engineers and doctors who have been accepted almost entirely because of their sex, race, and sexual preferences.
Oh and: their woke credentials.
If you live another 10-or-so years, you'll face the leading edge of this disaster.
Some of us will die because as a result.
The harm to the nation and the Western world will be incalculable.

B-21 Rollout
I love me some military aircraft...but this ceremony is a bit much for me. A little creepy, actually. The operatic music..jeez...you know what this thing is for, right?

Tarheels 65 - Hoosiers 77
LOL so much for number 1...
Three Ls in a row...and didn't look particularly good doing it.
Almost no assists. That's a bad sign.
More Woke D&D: The Reaver Horde Descends on a Psychologist Who Argues that Orcs Aren't Racist
I mean, his arguments are just so-so...but the Reaver Horde (to mix fictional universes) have no arguments at all. It's all shrieky ad hominems.
On the basis of nothing, they accuse him of advocating slavery and--get this--spanking.
Dungeons & Dragons Confirms “Sensitivity Readers” and Announces They Will Change The Nature Of In-Game Races
If you have any doubts that the Woketarians are a cult, just read through this.
VDH: If the Progressive Left Wanted to Destroy the Country, What, Exactly, Would It Do Different?
A question I've asked myself many times.
GOP Preparing to Learn Nothing Again With Midterms Review
MSDNC, but maybe worth a read anyway.
Both parties have the same tendency: to blame "messaging." It's never their unpopular or bad polices...it's never a bad or unpopular "message"...always just a failure of messaging"...
I doubt (contra MSNBC) that the Pubs' immigration stance is the culprit--but, then, I would... My guess is Trump. And abortion. But JMO.

Openly Crossdressing DoE Official Busted for Stealing Woman's Luggage at Airport
Really in no way surprising.
Judith Curry on Climate Change: "There Is No Emergency"
Though I don't really deserve an opinion, I'm currently inclined to think she's right about everything she says here:

Biden Ed. Dept. Official: DEMOCRACY IS TEH YT SUPREMASOMETHING
So this is the kind of person determining the trajectory of the education of just about every kid in the USA.

Carolina 65 - Iowa State 70
No surprise, really. They haven't looked like the best team in the country yet this year. Certainly not, say, a Texas against Gonzaga. But it's early. They haven't had a team to really shine against, yet, either. Still would have won if they'd have kept it together late in the game. Losing actually may have been a better outcome for them in the long run. But that's an easy thing to say from the outside.
Not to take anything away from Iowa State--to whom big props. Nice win.
Consolation 3rd-place game on Sunday vs. Bama.

Carolina 89 - Portland 81
NGL, all these closer-than-they-oughtta-be games have me somewhat concerned.
Miranda Devine: "CO Gay Nightclub Massacre Shows Dems' Hypocrisy"
I almost didn't read this, thinking there'd be nothing new here. But actually, it's pretty damn good.
I don't know what's to be done. I mean these are ordinary kinds of problems about political disagreements and obsessions, groupthink, echo chambers, media-politician feedback loops and whatnot...but the now-radical Democrats are very seriously afflicted. They've really pulled up the ladder and locked themselves into their own fantastical, ridiculous, hermetically sealed worldview. People who oppose their delusions with facts and sound reasoning--e.g. Chris Rufo, James Lindsay, Matt Walsh...all are merely vilified, not refuted. Walsh's main crime seems to have been pushing some leftist "experts" to answer the question "what is a woman?" The villain! Of course the American left is no longer liberal--vilification and shrieking has replaced argument. And Michelle Goldberg...what a train wreck. I mean, she was never great, but it seems to me that she used to at least try. Now she's one of the more wacked-out propagandists at the NYT. Which is, of course, saying something...
Anyway: worth a read.
