Yale’s Rare Alchemical Library

Yale University — the Ivy League school in New Haven, Connecticut — has a secret alchemical library where many of the books are written in archaic languages. Most are housed in the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library — a six-story, glass-encased structure that also contains original manuscripts by authors including the likes of D.H. Lawrence  and James Joyce.

Unless you’re a Yale student, you’ll have trouble getting inside the library to pore over its forbidden books. But some details about its resources are finding their way online.

Here, Riss Flex dives into what we can learn about these alchemical books. She also cites references to the library from the metaphysical works of  David Icke and David Wilcock.

Who’s Accountable In Chicago?

A Walgreens in Chicago is closing its doors due to rampant crime and violence in the area.

Instead of holding their community and politicians accountable for this issue, the residents are blaming Walgreens.

You can’t make this up. Let’s talk about it. Here’s more from Amala Ekpunobi.

High School Students Can’t Read

America’s education system is failing our kids on a massive scale, and the adults in charge are more interested in protecting themselves than fixing the problem.

Watch this viral video that shows high school students can’t read. Here’s more from Brett Cooper.

Female Coded

Helen Andrews and Triggernometry tackle the psychology behind modern woke culture. She wrote an article called The Great Feminization arguing that wokeness is essentially just the feminization of institutions — insane leftist hug box Bluesky respond exactly as you’d expect.

The argument is straightforward — law schools, medical schools, the New York Times, white collar management, all tipped majority female around the same time wokeness exploded. Andrews says that’s not a coincidence, because masculine and feminine institutions handle conflict completely differently. Men ask what are the facts and what are the rules. Women ask how does everyone feel and how do we reach consensus. HR is the enforcement arm of the gossip mill.

There’s also a Scandinavian psychology study where researchers watched kids fight on a playground, counted way more fights among boys, then asked the kids directly — and the girls reported just as many fights. They just couldn’t see them because female conflict is all reputational destruction happening behind the scenes. SugarTits then immediately confirmed this with a story from her own childhood that I will not be spoiling here.

The Blue Sky responses meanwhile are a masterclass in exactly what Andrews is describing — zero engagement with the argument, pure character assassination, and one person who spent an entire tweet attacking her jaw and forehead. Incredible stuff. Here’s more from Bearing.

Sold Out

Walmart’s new TV spies on you. It will track you relentlessly, delivering commercials and targeting advertising that matches your buying habits.

This Story Is Insane

This is one of the most insane stories I have ever covered. Brett Cooper dives into the case of a J.P. Morgan employee who has filed a sexual assault case against his female supervisor.

The banker, Chirayu Rana, age 34, claimed his boss, Lorna Hajdini, sexually assaulted and harassed him, while calling him a “brown boy” or a “brownie.” Here’s more from Cooper.

Your Car Is Spying On You

There’s a kill switch being built into every new car in America by 2027 — and both parties voted for it with a smile.

Bridget Phetasy breaks down the AI that decides if you’re too emotional to drive, why the mandatory seatbelt law was always a slippery slope, and how the surveillance state got built — not by the government, but by us, one smart home device and ignored terms of service at a time.

The Alexa, the Ring doorbell, the face scan to unlock your phone — we handed all of it over for the sake of convenience. Don’t worry though, you can opt out. You just won’t be able to participate in society. Here’s more from Phetasy in a new edition of The Dumpster Fire.

Say Yes To Data Centers

A data center uses as much power as a city!

So people want to stop them. But that’s dumb.

“Electricity replaces human labor and allows us to do more and better things,” says Paige Lambermont of the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

Here’s why we need MORE data centers, not fewer. Here’s more from John Stossel.

Pocahontas: She’s Takes It Away

Two powerful Democrats — U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Pete Buttigieg, the former Cabinet head for U.S. Department of Transportation — command a big chunk of the blame for Spirit Airlines going belly up.

The two Democrats used their power to block a money-saving $3.8 billion merger that had been proposed between Spirit Airlines and JetBlue. The merger would have kept Spirit Airlines afloat and benefited the many working class riders who used the airlines.

But today’s Democratic Party is no longer the voice for the working class. It’s become an effete and snobbish party tied to woke college-educated leftists. So whether Buttigieg is sorry or not, the chickens have now come home to roost. If you don’t like it, take it up with Pocahontas! Here’s more from The Liberal Hivemind.

 

We’re Done With Men!

I’m seeing the same thing over and over again from young women: “I am done with men.”

We talk a lot about the male loneliness epidemic, but is there a female one? If so, is it by choice? Let’s talk about it. Here’s more from Amala Ekpunobi.
