Dear lefties: One of yours just killed Charlie Kirk. What you don't understand is that Charlie was a sweetheart compared to the people who are likely to gain power from the hatred you have sown with his death. No, I don't know who those people are. And I don't expect to like

It was difficult for me to watch this video all the way through to the end, but it reminded me of something important that I think a lot of people at and above IQ level 100 don't understand. It's something I only understand myself because travel is broadening. This video is what

I got a stark reminder today that people with college degrees, in general, haven't got the faintest clue what the conceptual world of a person with an IQ below 90 is like. This was in reaction to a large, carefully designed study of the outcomes of universal basic income.

I'm about to do something I think I've never done before, which is assert every bit of whatever authority I have as the person who discovered and wrote down the rules of open source. After ten years of drama and idiocy, lots of people other than me are now willing to say in

I am about to be serious. I am emphasizing this because it's going to sound like I'm being either satirical or lust-ridden. There should be an immigration fast track for hot white girls. Why? Because women have a limited number of ovulations in their lifetimes. The absolute

This is a heads-up for Indian immigrants in the US from a person who is not hostile to you. I'm going to try to say some helpful things. I understand why you're finding the recent xenophobic reactions on X shocking. You believe you've come here and played the American game by
