This is a great and perceptive book. The guy’s weird and he always will be. He does not know how to be.
As Pierre Poilievre's leadership goes on the block, it's a good time to read Ripper: The Making of Pierre Poilievre. I guarantee you'll learn a lot about what makes him tick. You have time to read it and give it to someone for Christmas.
It's available everywhere.

This video is worth watching. It's an overview of the situation of young men, but it's not manosphere. I wish he had gone into the social stigma attached to men who read and think, this anti-nerd trope that has driven three generations of young men away from books.

Probably the best, most accurate thing written about modern Canada this year, though I have little faith in Carney. Ingenuity and creative thinking are not his strong points. As for the environment, "Values" seems like a bad joke.

Just finished Big Men Fear Me, a biog of the forgotten proto fascist who put the & in Globe & Mail. Huge amount of digging in a sparky style, Mark Bourrie @drmarkbourrie.bsky.social proves the advantage of biography in telling history - of a booze soaked political era most of us know nothing about.
