KURT SCHLICTER: culturally appropriate this, you social justice jerks.

When they [SJWs] demand that I conform to their dictates, I’ve got a counter-offer.

How about I do exactly what I want and you stand there and suck it up?

Read the whole thing.

BECAUSE HE'S NOT ONE: Progressive 'male' thinks 'man' is a dirty word.

PROGRESSIVE, “FAIR WAGE” PIZZA SHOP is closing its doors.

Economics strikes again.

POWERLINE'S Week in Pictures has been posted. I have two favorites this week.

This first one is about 'cultural appropriation' ... from the party of 'inclusion':

Should real native Americans be insulted?

My second favorite is just plain funny:

Happy Halloween. Now go and see the rest.

IMPORTANT ONLY IN THEIR OWN MINDS: "For many in official Washington, highlighting the irrelevance of their work is President Trump's unforgivable sin."

AMMO GRRRLL: Old books, new books; whichever support today's narrative.

LIBERALS try to connect with normal Americans.

The 'trigger warning' is a nice touch....

THE FACE of true patriotism.

NATIONAL REVIEW Give university trustees a role in faculty hiring.

An excellent idea - every lawn needs weed control.

JEFF JACOBY: Liberate government workers from forced union fees.

Government workers should never have been allowed to unionize in the first place.

EPA HEAD SCOTT PRUITT: 'sue-and-settle' is gone. That's a good beginning, but the environment will be better served by getting the government completely out of the protection racket.

(Note: the Regional Haze rule referred to is here.)

FOUR GOP SENATORS standing in the way of progress. Actually six, with the addition of Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and Bob Corker (R-TN) joining the 'Never Trump' legion.

On the bright side, though, it does appear that the Republican establishment (the GOPe) is beginning to get the message from the voters that 'go along to get along' is outside the bounds of Trump's new Republican party.

The swamp will be drained.

POWERLINE: Is the Left cracking up with this 'we can achieve diversity by all thinking alike' nonsense?

From the comments:

This is not unique to Apple or even Silicon valley. These people populate the human resources department of every corporation large and small, and they have foisted this stuff on all workers, who have learned to "keep your mouth shut or else." We used to call it the Personnel department, which assumed that employment was about people who were persons with personalities. We've reduced them the human resources ... like a bin of scrap wood or nails. Just another basket of inanimate objects. The HR department of your company is the political commisar of the left. All those Republican establishment types who occupy the boardroom have allowed the left to make their companies into communist "re-education" camps. Hopefully you guys will begin to catch a clue and understand Trump's appeal. I'll be throwing my support behind Steve Bannon in the upcoming election.

I saw this coming when Personnel departments started becoming Human Resources departments. Still, the sheer depth of this lunacy is astounding.

WELL, THERE ARE LOTS OF THEM OUT THERE: I see stupid people.

EVERYONE CAN WIN ON IMMIGRATION if we stop playing politics.

Which won't happen....

TRUMP TO REPUBLICANS: leave our 401Ks alone!

Don Surber: "I paid far more into Social Security than I did my 401k plan. Now retired, I draw down more from my 401k (even as it grows) than I do Social Security."

Similarly here: my wife's and my 401K required minimum distributions (RMDs) are 193% of our combined Social Security income.

Here's how it works.

THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS will scream helplessly at the sky on Trump's election anniversary.

With luck, the resulting laryngitis will give the rest of us a few days of peace and quiet....

THE ESTABLISHMENT flunks out.

But I do agree with Instapundit that the chess club is treated unfairly.

ALGEBRA AND GEOMETRY perpetuate white privilege.

[C]urricula emphasizing terms like Pythagorean theorem ... perpetuate a perception that mathematics was largely developed by Greeks and other Europeans.

So would he prefer the Native American version of the Pythagorean theorem?
