Waiting for the Bus
Artemis II has gone skyward with all the confidence of a man who has never had to wait on a late train, and I stood below feeling a particular kind of disappointment, the refined, well-aged sort, like a cheese that has seen too many mice. Now, don’t mistake me. I am pleased as a banker…

The Fourth Turning
Now, I didn’t go looking for the Strauss–Howe generational theory. It found me. I stumbled on the idea of “Turnings,” these repeating cycles that supposedly shape the rise and fall of institutions, the mood of generations, even the character of national life.

Masto’s ‘Bullshit Excuse for Ignoring Election Integrity’ Letter

Two RINOs Don’t Make It Right, and Three Is Worse
Commentary James Settelmeyer should be effing ashamed of himself, or at least pretend to be, after swallowing the endorsement of Rep. Mark Amodei, a man whose entire career is a monument to anti-Trump cowardice. Amodei didn’t just mumble polite criticisms; he cheered on Nancy Pelosi’s impeachment circus over the Ukraine hoax and had the unmitigated…
