RE-EDUCATION. CASTREAU IS A CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCKHEAD: McCarthy loses speaker vote for the fifth (!) time, despite Trump endorsement; Jordan Peterson told to report for re-education (no satire); useful capsule summaries of Twitter files so far; a look at newly-elected Latina congresswoman, “the Left does not value us for anything more than our votes”.

I DIDN’T WANT TO WRITE THIS POST: January 6th.
BEHOLD MY SHOCKED FACE: Innovation in science has slowed to a crawl.
USE THEIR RULES AGAINST THEM: Man in Ecuador changes his gender to gain custody of his kids.
THEY’RE FROM THE GOVERNMENT. THAT’S WHAT THEY DO: How government makes everything worse.
THE LEFT FIRMLY BELIEVES HUMANS ARE WIDGETS AND DEFINED ONLY BY ARBITRARY CHARACTERISTICS: Embarrassing media gushing as Massachusetts inaugurates first female, first openly gay governor with ‘all-female leadership team’.
Characteristics that have nothing to do with mind or belief or knowledge or ability.
OF COURSE THEY DID. THIS IS A REGIME OF BULLIES: In 2022, the IRS Went After the Very Poorest Taxpayers.
BECAUSE OF COURSE HE DOES: Party hearty: As San Francisco drowns in storms, Mayor London Breed vacays in Vegas.
AND SPEAKING OF METEORS: Excitement Builds as Comet Approaches Earth for First Time in About 50,000 Years.
I have so many questions about the supposed papal excommunication of a meteor, btw? I mean, is the meteor now barred from sacraments and attending mass? And who the heck baptized it to begin with? I think there’s a miss-translation there.
THEY THINK THEY CAN KEEP DOING THIS FOREVER: Columbia University Hires Hillary Clinton for Professor ‘of International and Public Affairs’.
They don’t understand the damage already done tot he reputation and authority of the institutions they infect.
For some reason I have in mind this scene of the dinosaurs going on with life as usual while the meteor streaks through the sky.
THEY KEEP TAMPING DOWN THE POWDER KEG: Biden Admin Tries Justifying Canceling Keystone XL Despite Decision Killing Thousands of Jobs.
15th TIME’S THE CHARM: House of Representatives officially elects Kevin McCarthy to serve as House speaker.

UPDATE: Kevin McCarthy Elected 55th Speaker of the House. Here’s How It Went Down.
BECAUSE OF COURSE THESE DESPICABLE PETTY TYRANTS STOP AT NOTHING: Capitol Police Arrest Ashli Babbitt’s Mother on Anniversary of Capitol Hill Riot.
A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN MISREPRESENTATION:

OPEN THREAD: Just do it.
EVERYTHING IS STUPID: A Nobel Physicist Explained How to Cook Pasta And Now Everybody’s Angry. “Professor Giorgio Parisi – who won the 2021 physics Nobel for “the discovery of the interplay of disorder and fluctuations in physical systems from atomic to planetary scales” – suggested that turning off the heat midway through cooking pasta, then covering with a lid and waiting for the residual heat in the water to finish the job, can help reduce the cost of cooking pasta. In response, Michelin-starred chef Antonello Colonna claimed this method makes the pasta rubbery, and that it could never be served in a high-quality restaurant such as his own.”
The best way to reduce the cost of cooking pasta? Cheap energy, which is readily available in the absence of government interference.

HMM: Mercedes Launches Its Own High-Speed Charging Network for EVs. “Owners of other brands of electric vehicles can use the stations too, with 10,000 coming to North America, Europe, and China by decade’s end, in a venture shared with ChargePoint and MN8 Energy.”
I wish they’d build some power plants, too.
FLORIDA MAN FRIDAY: A Dominatrix Walks Into a City Council Meeting… “This week we have the happy ending that wasn’t, equal spankings for all, and the cutest dog that ever got to go to a Miami Heat game.”
REMEMBER WHEN THEY CLOSED THE GYMS AND ARRESTED JOGGERS AND CYCLISTS? Regular aerobic exercise reduces depression in teens.
HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE: Hillary Clinton will join Columbia University as a professor in 2023.
