They’re actually blue all the way down. You may see this term in online discourse these days: “red pill.” It’s from The Matrix. We all remember this shot, partially because it’s so iconic.

The Washington Post laid it all out. They published an analysis done by psychologists on the differences between conservatives and liberals. The physiological analysis indicated that conservatives tend to have larger amygdalae, the structures in the brain responsible for fear; they also indicated that, when put in situations where they…

I’m going to need to build a bunch of Magic decks soon. I don’t know if it’s a Millennials thing, or maybe just a product of being one of the first members of the Information Age, but as my generation gets older and starts having kids, we’re putting a lot…

As part of an attempt (one of several) to get away from Facebook, I ended up on Reddit. There’s definitely a lot of alt-right fools and incel jihadists hanging out there, but there are also some sensible corners too — particularly the r/relationship_advice subreddit. …
