THE NEW SPACE RACE: ‘You’ll see lights on the moon’: Billionaire space executive predicts moon commutes in the 2030s. “Voyager Technologies founder and CEO Dylan Taylor says off-world jobs could emerge much sooner than many people expect. Taylor told Fortune that spaceflight is nearing a new stage, shifting away from brief missions and toward a reality wherein living and working off Earth is routine. In his view, the next milestone is a lunar outpost, which he expects could arrive in the early 2030s.”

JIM TREACHER: Dems Celebrate Political Violence, Again.

HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT MEN AREN’T OUT THERE TELLING WOMEN THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO AN OPINION ON THINGS? Yes, men are allowed to opine about Lindsay Clancy.

I generally take such claims as evidence that the women’s opinions in question can’t stand up to rational discussion. Of course, one advantage of the current crazy years is that you can retort with “How dare you assume my gender?”

I AGREE WITH PROF. VERMEULE.

The issue isn’t that the universities won’t admit to being progressive seminaries. (Does anyone not realize what they are?) It’s not a consumer disclosure issue.

I’m not saying we should regulate higher ed like an industry that produces toxic waste, but we certainly shouldn’t be funding this.

FOLLOW THE “SCIENCE.”

This is really sad:

When psychology professors are asked whether they'd put the truth before social equity concerns, 66.4% of male professors said yes, but fewer than half of female professors (43%) agreed.

In both groups, too many put equity before truth. https://t.co/a3ooZ59LTY pic.twitter.com/h6091gYy5a
