Four years ago, I woke from a spell that I had been under since childhood.  After decades of torment, I recognized my mother for what she truly was: a personality-disordered abuser.  She wasn't the victim she had always claimed to be.  Then I saw the same behavior and abuse tactics being adopted and applauded by the social justice left.

Audio: Conversation with Kate Wand, March 13, 2025

-Everything everywhere is broken all the time. Products, services, and human interactions have gone completely off the rails and everyone's acting like we're still living in a normal United States. We're not. Come notice with us. 

-Rep. Jasmine Crockett lost a primary race to an apparent psychopath Presbyterian named James Talarico who says God is non-binary, and "trans kids" are "perfect," "sacred," and made in God's own image. God seems unsure of they's identity.

-Potpourri du Moquerie: Prairie Edition. We've got a sneak peek of the Netflix reboot of Little House on the Prairie and BITCH IT IS CRUNK

Unmanaged Decline: Episode 264, March 11, 2026

-Jenny Holland of Saving Culture From Itself joins us to talk about how you can go from a bohemian 90s leftist chick to a middle-aged conservative. Join us for your political makeover!

-Black-people-specific narcissism is the elephant in the room (along with misandry) that the U.S. doesn't want to talk about. We're going to talk about it using the Tourettes-at-the-BAFTAs as a jumping off point.

-Do you remember when adults recognized that some people are liars? Have you noticed how no one wants to say it anymore? Positive projection by decent, normal people is getting us killed.
