The wedding industry is booming in the post-COVID world. Yet the fuss over wedding flowers, gowns, and photographers can’t cover up an ever-growing reality: A large portion of the American adult population is single.

- July 1, 2022
A few days ago, a friend told me she used to love celebrating July 4th, but the last few years have brought more sadness than joy to that holiday. Listening to her, I couldn’t help but sympathize with her sorrow. July 4th arrives in the middle of the summer, but rain or shine, for many

Changing Minds Across the Back Fence2
The Dobbs v. Jackson case that recently overturned Roe v. Wade has generated more average, everyday conversations about a Supreme Court decision than I’ve ever seen. I’ve heard strangers walking by me talking about the issue while on their phones. Neighbors even discuss it over the back fence. My mother had one of these back-fence

We’re almost through Pride Month. While many aspects of this “celebration” come off as tasteless at best, what’s truly sickening about it is the indoctrination efforts this event directs toward young children.

Too many of our nation’s young men use guns for evil. One knee-jerk response is to restrict gun ownership. But this solution ignores the most important question: What drives these young men to murder? I’m personally all for trying to keep guns away from people with criminal records, mental illness, and histories of making violent threats.

The Cowardly American Corporation5
I no longer bubble with rage when a new outbreak of corporate wokeness erupts across our fruited plain. It’s just another day in the pathetic life of the Land of the Greedy and the Home of the Enslaved. To wit: this week’s parade of U.S. companies ostentatiously trumpeting “health care coverage” for employees who want

- June 28, 2022
If the push notifications on my computer are any indication, an alarming trend is unfolding before our eyes: young, seemingly healthy individuals are dropping like flies, dying suddenly. It wasn’t always like this. Sure, the death notifications of high-profile figures would come occasionally, but they were usually for those in their 80s or 90s who

The Child I Almost Had8
I sit down to write this as yet another person expresses support on social media for those talking about how the Supreme Court overturning Roe vs. Wade is a tragedy. Indeed, they liken it to an infringement of some strange “natural” freedom all women should enjoy, as if abortion is a good thing. This time,
