Culture Will the Decline of Drinking Kill Socialization? Teetotaling youngsters may find they are missing out on an important part of life. (Room 76/Shutterstock) Older adults, according to new data from the UK , are 50 percent more likely than those under 40 to be regular drinkers. Alcohol consumption in the USA, meanwhile, is at a record low . The youth are more health-conscious, and appear to be increasingly risk-averse as well. This sensitivity to risk, as Whitaker et al. have written , refers not just to health consequences, but also to the potential embarrassment associated with public drunkenness. On the flip…Open

A veterinarian says dogs can show hyperactivity, impulsivity and inattention resembling human ADHD, but owners should not mistake normal behavior for illness. The Daily Mail reported that dozens of owners have described similar traits in their dogs online. One TikTok user posted a video of a dog “running laps” and asked whether it showed “textbook symptoms.” Researchers have examined ADHD-like behavior in dogs, including problems with focus and impulse control. But Dr. Guy Sandelowsky, founder of OMNI Pet Limited, says ordinary canine behavior can look much the same. That distinction matters.

By Noel S. Williams Despite the Gen Z women trying to negate nature, at least our young men are trying to flirt with them; the pheromone-maxxing craze is testament to this.
One of the seldom remarked-upon things in modern life is how many things are controversial or extremely difficult, not because they’re innately hard to handle, but because a certain percentage of Americans have no morals or common sense.
That was something that came to mind when I saw this video: In the video, a Hispanic man is in the car with his family, and he gets pulled over by ICE. They have no idea why they were pulled over. When ICE comes up, he asks why he was stopped; ICE tells him that he looks like a target they’re after and asks for his ID. He gives them his ID, they look at it, realize it’s not who they’re after, tell them to have a nice day, and they go back to their cars. It was a very normal encounter. Humdrum and boring even. Why? Because the guy in the car didn’t act like a moron. Compare that to the people in Minnesota chasing ICE agents around with their cars, attacking them, smashing things up, resisting arrest, screaming abuse, etc., etc. The…Open

Culture Culture The World Cup of Ink What does the prevalence of tattoos mean in the era of mass culture? TakiMag Photo by James Fearn/Getty Images My interest in professional sport these days ranges from minimal to nil, but even I could not altogether avoid or evade the hysteria over the recent World Cup, which recurs every four years. It would have been easier to miss the outbreak of the Third (or would it be the Fourth?) World War. As everyone now knows, Spain beat Argentina in the final, in a match more remarkable for its non-sporting qualities than for its…Open
