I’ve long known, or at least suspected, the the right’s fixation on terminology and defining conservatism would haunt it. I didn’t think the one to discover this fault would be, of all people, Donald Trump.

The Canadian Senate is so weird.
Obama had some tough-ish words for HBCUs, and they didn’t go unnoticed. HBCUs have many of the same struggles as community colleges and even for-profits, though often get a lot more sympathy than the latter from some, and a lot less from others.

The federal grazing system link goes to a story about putting sex offenders’ status on their passports. Which is worth it’s own entry, properly identified.
Fixed!
The federal grazing system is only one of several things that contributes to poor land management. If I were going to start with one that I wanted to fix, I’d want to start with the damned checkerboard mistake that was made from the late 1860s on.
You should write a post.
That report on height/weight and sexual partners is hopelessly flawed because it (no doubt necessarily) relies on self-reported activity. Men claim far more partners than they’ve actually had and women claim far fewer. If a man says he has had 10 sexual partners he probably has had five, while if a woman says five she has had ten.
Do you think they would lie inconsistently? That thin girls will lie more than fat girls, short versus tall, etc?
