In fact, they consider emotions more “functional” (utilitarian, essentially) than conservatives do despite reporting less emotional well-being. Read the rest here.

By Selwyn Duke Congressman George Santos (R-N.Y.) has been a very, very bad boy. So naughty, in fact, that politicians and pundits left, right, and center have insisted he be removed from Congress. The issue, as has been well publicized, is that these critics are deeply offended — down to their very souls — that…

By Selwyn Duke The choice is binary: You can either have a school science curriculum actually driven by science.
