Google is honoring Nettie Stevens today; did she ever get married and have children? Her wiki entry makes no mention of either. Did her mother die of breast cancer? Did her not having children contribute to her getting breast cancer? A New Englander - a Yankee? Did she displace a man from scientific research? Did she ever attempt to assume authority over men? How much of a ideological feminist was she?
Nettie Stevens discovered XY sex chromosomes. She didn't get credit because she had two X’s.

One Screen Anarchy writer doesn't think the movie will be good. An action movie that doesn't meet what we expect from Dante Lam?

The National Guard: not the militia of the free states assumed by the Founding Fathers. Maybe the filmmakers were well-meaning, but this is propaganda for the National Government as well if the use of the National Guard for imperial wars is depicted as being legitimate.

A Third Way?
While Grass Valley and Nevada City may be full of white people, what is the local culture like? More hippie than traditional? Maybe the state of Jefferson would be composed of a myriad of alternative cultures to Californian neo-Yankee mass culture, but I'd probably rather live in a traditional area than one populated by aging liberal hippies, who have in part created that neo-Yankee mass culture. How much time would it take to find out what towns are more traditional?
I could move to another state, but that isn't very likely; I'd fit in more in one that has a bit of diversity (e.g. Texas) than one that doesn't, even if the latter is more preferable with respect to tradition.
As for faith, some Orthodox chuches are more traditional, more patriarchical than others. The Greeks seem to be rather liberal in that regard. ROCOR might be on the other end of the spectrum. But the pretensions of the Orthodox patriarchs are grating; can't say that the pretensions of the papal maximalists are any better. Is there an alternative? The Assyrian Church of the East, perhaps? How are they dealing with feminism?

Why do we need a remake of a '70s movie about gang warfare?
Which is rather cheesy, even if it too is a cult favorite? In many cities we have the real thing, and the situation may get worse if the economy is manifestly in the toilet and balkanization accelerates. How many multi-ethnic gangs really exist (as opposed to loose alliances between divese monoethnic gangs)? A fantasy from the '70s in the wake of the Civil Rights Era?

What Would Benedict XV Say?
Does it matter?
Can the pope avoid making such vague or general statements if he cannot give a sustained critique based on natural law? At the root of it, a failure to understand what is required by the "common good"?
In Brexit’s wake, pope warns of ‘political and economic selfishness’
