Every other day, we’re bombarded with news about a celebrity lecturing us to vote out Donald Trump. At this point, it’s practically a relief to see an actor or singer not ordering us to vote for Biden come November. Unfortunately, as Chris Pratt proves, that’s all you need to be canceled nowadays. Or worse, remaining quiet gets you labeled as a MAGA supporter.

Pretty sad.

In 1973, Graham Greene wrote an introduction to a bookselling friend’s memoir. As Greene was one of the most respected writers of his day, this was no small gesture, but the author was also a committed bibliophile. The book dealer and biographer John Baxter’s memoir A Pound of Paper contains treasurable glimpses of Greene deliberately signing obscure copies of his works in far-off locations, in the certain knowledge that these items would become hugely sought-after rarities, and he remains one of the few serious literary figures who also understood the glamour and romance of the bookselling trade. In his introduction, he openly acknowledged this, writing ‘Secondhand booksellers are the most friendly and most eccentric of all the characters I have known. If I had not been a writer, theirs would have been the profession I would most happily have chosen.’

The author is using ‘demise’ in its slovenly modern usage as a synonym for ‘death’. It actually means ‘convey by death’, as in ‘demise of the crown’. I hate sloppy writers. Hate ’em hate ’em hate ’em.

But the article itself is interesting, though written by a nitwit.

Is it time to reconsider the 19th Amendment?

The argument for female suffrage is that women are not more prone to bouts of emotionalism than men, and hence is it equally worthwhile, as the whole, to consult with them over the conduct and control of public business.

Unfortunately, it is evident that there are but rare and few men in the current generation show any particular manly or masculine virtues which would entitle them to a say in the public business, if stoicism, reason, and virtue were preconditions for the franchise.

President Donald Trump’s key debating point on health policy is substantively correct: Former Vice President Joe Biden’s health proposal would progressively eliminate Americans’ private health insurance and back Americans into a single-payer system of government-controlled health insurance.

In Canada, for example, you have to go to the government for your health care. As a result, people who can’t afford the long lines and denial of coverage by bureaucrats have to come to the U.S. to get help — but where would WE go?

Paul Graham.

One of the biggest things holding people back from doing great work is the fear of making something lame. And this fear is not an irrational one. Many great projects go through a stage early on where they don’t seem very impressive, even to their creators. You have to push through this stage to reach the great work that lies beyond. But many people don’t. Most people don’t even reach the stage of making something they’re embarrassed by, let alone continue past it. They’re too frightened even to start.

The Other McCain is on the case.

Here’s some cold facts for you: Most black people live in communities (of which Atlanta is certainly one) where Democrats control local government. So the Democrat officials in charge of their local precincts are the ones responsible for the long voting lines. This is not a right-wing conspiracy, it’s just Democrat incompetence in operation.

Unions really don’t like competition.

One of the few bright spots of 2020 has been the embrace of new educational options for kids. The greatest success has been the “microschool” model, where five to ten students gather in a home and receive instruction from one or more teachers. And the nation’s largest labor union is furious about it.

In a recent poll, about one-third of parents already participate in a learning pod, while over half have either joined or are looking to form one. Teachers love microschools as well, with nearly 70 percent expressing interest in teaching in one.

You would think that a group called the “National Education Association” would be thrilled that so many kids are being educated. You’d be very wrong. The NEA is primarily concerned with the money spigot flowing into traditional public schools. And if public schools bar their doors, they want every child to be left behind.

White House chief of staff Mark Meadows suggested Monday potential lawsuits against Twitter and Facebook were pending over the Internet media outlets’ blocking of distribution of a New York Post story claiming the son of Democratic nominee for president Joe Biden introduced a Ukrainian petroleum executive to his father.

In more a than 10-minute appearance on the Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” Meadows claimed the two platforms used dubious and specious justifications for prohibiting the story last week being linked on users’ personal accounts, with Facebook saying the information needed to be fact-checked and Twitter saying it violated its policy on distributing “hacked” material.

Friday’s Real Time With Bill Maher showcased the liberal hate fest the HBO series has become known for. But in addition to sliming Any Coney Barrett’s religious faith as “nuts,” host Bill Maher brought on TV and movie actor John Leguizamo to slime Latinos who may vote for Donald Trump.

Maher wondered, “There was an article I saw on the paper this week and I thought this was trading on stereotypes that said Trump is doing rather well with young Latino men because of the machismo factor.”

The John Wick actor sneered, “Latin people for Republicans are like roaches for Raid. Let’s just get real.”

Vaping is an alternative to smoking. It’s a way in which nicotine addicts can access that drug without exposure to the harmful tars and chemicals in cigarettes that cause cancer, heart disease, and other maladies. It therefore presents the possibility of saving millions of lives.
