I THINK IT MEANS SOMETHING THAT THEY’RE ASKING THIS QUESTION IN THE NEW YORK TIMES: Did Liberal Feminism Ruin the Workplace? It certainly has leftists’ panties in a wad.
The thing to remember is that feminism doesn’t address the needs and desires of women as such. It addresses the needs and desires of a certain subset of upscale educated women. Perhaps coincidentally, women’s happiness on the General Social Survey has fallen steadily since feminism got traction.
BUMMER: With government shutdown impacting FAA, commercial space launches from Florida get curfew. It’s more like a reverse curfew, really: “It is hereby ordered that, beginning at 6:00 a.m. EST on November 10, 2025, and until this Order is cancelled, Commercial space launches and reentries will only be permitted between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. local time,” according to the emergency order released yesterday.
