Found on X, a parent's experience of her elementary-age son's school band experience, expanded to the entire public school environment. We are all aware that public school teachers are heavily Leftist, and this definitely shows that. For me to publish this article, I had to look up the definition of "Groyper", since I have heard …

The new Feminism is actually anti-woman. Guest author Mark Steyn on how modern feminists see Islamic Rape-gangs (illegally in Europe, invited in by governments)

This article for us Mark Steyn Cub members relates very well how today's so-called Feminists have stopped supporting ordinary women, ignoring the total degradation of "asylum-seekers" who rape women and girls all over Europe.

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #362: Sports and Games

I'm the world's biggest klutz, so I don't engage in many sports myself, but I have no problem watching, especially when the sport is squash. Hubby is a competitive squash player, and together we have been to many tournaments since we met in 2001. The farthest away we have been for a tournament is Vancouver, …
