Truly Unnatural

It really is strange how it’s treated by so much of the left as hateful and anomalous that, broadly speaking, people wish to live near other people like them who speak the same language and hold the same values as they do.

Because, brothers and sisters, it’s the most natural thing in the universe to want that. I’d even say that it is part of human nature. Of course, leftists insist human nature does not exist. They are wrong, of course. If it did not exist then neither would we.

On the other hand, inviting millions of people into your country who want to destroy it and would kill you if they could and will rape any women they have the chance to is what is unnatural. It’s kind of sad that has to be pointed out these days. But it does.

Buffeted

I agree. The woman is the one in the right here. I have no interest in proposals or rings in this sense and neither does my partner, but if my girlfriend said she wanted to go on vacation to a national park as her dream getaway and I took her to play the slots and eat at buffets in Vegas, she’d be right to be angry about it.

It doesn’t sound like this woman is a gold-digger or unreasonable. It more appears she’s not being listened to, which is death for any relationship.

Reading Speeding

I can finish a medium-hard 200 page book in about two hours. I can get through a difficult 300-page book (prose) in about five hours.

I can finish the average potboiler book in an hour and a half. The last time I read a book on a flight, I started and finished Tilt by Emma Pattee on a one hour and 21 minute flight.

Sorry about all y’all’s limitations, but they aren’t mine. Not in this realm.

Booking Through

Bro, I used to read 200 books in 7-10 weeks. It’s not actually that hard if you read fast and can devote a lot of time to it.

This is a great example of just because you can’t do something doesn’t mean that I can’t do something. And I promise you I understand those books better than you do when I’m finished, even if I read them three times as fast.

I read more than 200 books a year now despite the fact that I hardly even pick up books anymore (for me). Back in the day, I’d read 12-16 hours a day nearly every day.

Perhaps humans have always been so enamored with horror stories because, as a species, we are built for threat detection.
