    The failures of the self-righteous (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I’m very critical of the educational establishment. I spent a lot of time in public school myself, even though I graduated from a small private school. My eldest graduated from public school and, up until 2020, my daughter was in public school. We homeschool now because of those experiences.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1581726707445-75cbe4efc586?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=M3wzMDAzMzh8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHw2fHxjbGFzc3Jvb218ZW58MHx

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I wasn’t planning this, but due to a number of factors, pretty much all beyond my control, I’ll be taking the rest of this week as a break. Things are tough for your humble writer, I’m afraid, and I just don’t have the spoons for everything I’ve got to do. I do want to thank each and every one of you for your support. I promise this will be no longer than it has to be.

    The climate scam (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    You all know how I feel about the climate change bunch. I do feel like the climate has shifted a bit from where it was when I was younger. I just can’t buy the idea that humans are responsible when the climate has ebbed and flowed since before mankind walked the planet.<div class
