A Japanese CM

This house builder's commercial is fun. A man with an expecting wife goes all in for a self sufficient lifestyle in a suburban villa. He fails with some parts and In the end he gives up but look how deliriously happy he is while trying it. That face! https://t.co/zACw5kSILZ

Dreher is wrong in Big Shorts & Failed States: "Civilizational order is a fragile, fragile thing."

It is not "civilization order" that is fragile, but the current political and economic system which is fragile, and because it has deliberately chosen to do things that increase fragility for the benefit of a few at the expense of the majority.

He really should read Taleb on fragility but it might not be helpful for him.
