New Substack post: weâve all heard about the Great Feminization article and weâve all delighted at how badly even friendly conversations went for its author. Now we ask the question: is Helen Andrews just wrong, or is she interestingly wrong?

the fact that being really into eugenics appears to sort people for being shitty human is kind of amazing. like there is, in theory, room to be super interested in the area in principle and not be a shitty human being, but the correlation is robust

there are a few sincere eugenicists like Richard Hannania and they are meaningfully different than just garden-variety racists (no, this is not me saying "they're great! I love them! no problems!"). in theory it's an elitist but not necessarily racist mindset. in practice it like 90% is.

Madagascar, an island nation east of continental Africa, is the only place on Earth where lemurs exist. There are more than 100 lemur species, and nearly all of them are at risk of extinction, including the sifaka. Their foe: Deforestation.

The worldâs lemurs are going extinct. This is the only way to save them.
To protect Madagascarâs iconic animals, wildlife groups need to think beyond wildlife.

The left is floundering, insipid, and useless at confronting an ascendant fascism founded upon male supremacy because it is dominated by drooling idiots who have never had a single thought about gender beyond âsex is funâ and âI love mommy.â

The Joyce Carol Oates and âbooks written between 1890-1930 are so ALPHAâ thing struck home because it showed how many elites nowadays lack the ability to be moved or find meaning in art beyond what we did watching John Wick and going fuck yea this rules and that explains why they believe in AI art

The fact that this happens across models is interesting, and I don't think can just be chalked up to "The underlying corpus features a lot of this stuff." It also features a lot of people talking about basketball, and they don't gravitate towards using sports analogies for everything.

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda

Adam Corolla is the textbook example of why divorce protections are important for nonworking spouses - he used to brag routinely on his show about how his wife didn't have to work because he earned so much. It was a point of pride for him that she quit her job when they got married.
