[February 26, 206] President Donald Trump’s 2026 State of the Union address, this past Tuesday, was a patriotic masterclass in leadership that reaffirmed the principles of America First, economic freedom, border security, and strength abroad.

By guest blogger Sadako Red [see disclaimer] [February 25, 2026] The City of Baltimore is in a tailspin, and nowhere is this more evident than in its public school system. Since the late 1960s, the city has been on a downward cultural spiral, but the education of its children is the final, most tragic casualty. We shouldn’t be… Read More »

Peterson provides a detailed psychological, symbolic, and moral talk about the Brothers Grimm fairy tale.

[February 22, 2026] Recently, I asked the Grok AI to define leadership using a restaurant as a metaphor. The result, which you’ll see below, was—perhaps unsurprisingly—largely boilerplate. Personally, I still stand by my own definition: leadership is the art of getting people to do things they wouldn’t ordinarily do. As I promised, I want to explore how AI… Read More »
[February 21, 2026] Earlier this week I received an invitation to spend time with a small group of “older Veterans” at an assisted-living home just minutes from my house. I accepted immediately. What I expected was a pleasant hour of conversation. What I received was something far more powerful with these WWII veterans. Almost every man in the… Read More »
[February 20, 2026] There are travelers, and there are tourists. Tourists see the sights but miss the country. Travelers see the country—and the sights, too. In Cornwall, in the United Kingdom, locals have an old pejorative term for tourists: “emmet,” which literally means “ant.” It paints a vivid picture of those annoying out-of-towners who clog the roads and… Read More »
[February 19, 2026] Most Americans have never been comfortable with discrimination, regardless of the setting—be it an institution or a business—or the reason, such as race, gender, or religion. However, U.S. discrimination was once state-sponsored and overt, and we are now realizing the negative impact this had even on those the system was ostensibly designed to ‘help.’ The… Read More »
[February 18, 2026] As a follow-up from yesterday’s article on AI benefits, today I’ll briefly discuss the disadvantages. Of course, AI also offers tremendous benefits, but it also comes with significant disadvantages and risks. These concerns have become more prominent as AI adoption has accelerated in recent years (including into 2025–2026 trends). Below is an overview of the… Read More »
[February 17, 2026] I asked Grok 4.0 what were the advantages of Artificial Intelligence. What you read below is AI generated. We should not, in any way, be surprised at what we might gain with AI. What most observers see is a coming revolution in how people operate in a highly-intelligent world. If we don’t keep up, we… Read More »
