I have a dim memory of going to the mall with my sister so she could get the cassette tape.

"If Strauss's students have sometimes displayed an unseemly self-assurance, the source is not so much pride of truth as relief that they have not allowed political science to make them more stupid than they need to be."
-Herb Storing, Toward a More Perfect Union
Reactionary politicians, like reactionary educators, tend to conceive of their jobs in negative terms: not doing what the libs are doing. But too little concern for what is good and true. It's a sickness on the new right. And in classical and homeschool education.
No ruler who owns the libs ever makes errors. It is when his knowledge fails him that he makes an error, accidentally helping the libs. But a ruler, at the moment he is owning the libs, is a ruler in the precise sense.

It’s interesting how many people in low-stakes internet disagreements will go straight for the jugular and talk about how bad of a teacher I must be, how they feel bad for my students etc. They certainly know which buttons to press, but it’s weird. A kind of cowardice.

Senator Cruz and Governor DeSantis would be more credible as voices of an alternative path forward had they more often found those voices at any point in the last ten years.
Revisiting some of the Reedy Creek debates. This is one of the more thoughtful analyses of the largest issues involved. By @ben_2_long

This is the home my grandmother lived in (Lee County., NC) until she went to college in **1948**. Anyone selling you an early or mid 20th century golden age is full of it.

How bad is it, you ask? Here is the former PiS-appointed Polish ambassador to the United States. Very pro-American. Or was. MAGA is burning it all down.
Salutations to the spirited members of Team DeSantis who are visiting my twitter page. Don't forget to buy my book to read up on the ideas of American Liberty. Do your part to own the libs and to render sleepy the woke.

“The ideologue...thinks of politics as a revolutionary instrument for transforming society and even transforming human nature. In his march toward Utopia, the ideologue is merciless.”
—Russell Kirk
Stoked that @allthesmokeprod hosted Molitor. Growing up, Andy Van Slyke was my favorite player. I thought Mike Piazza had the prettiest swing. But as a player, I tried to imitate Molitor's compact swing the most.
There's a Codevilla-Burnham flavor to Governor DeSantis that will make him loved more and more by the America First/populist right and which will make freedom conservatives groan more and more with time.
