Dictators, wars, rebellions, ideological crazes, reigns of terror—all the political incidents that continue to repeat throughout history—do so for the same reason: the unbreakable chains of human nature eternally anchor us to our ancestors, and so we are often doomed to replay

Psychopathy is much more common than you think: here is how to deal with it and extend empathy to those who suffer from it: "The Psychopath in your Bed—and among Your Friends, Family, and Co-Workers" open.substack.com/pub/dennismcca…

Psychopaths have a stunningly hyper-reactive dopamine system, releasing 400% as much dopamine as normal, and their empathy centers have gone dark. That is, they're always scheming for a dopamine rush beyond your imagination, and they give zero fucks. Zero. dennismccarthy.substack.com/p/the-psychopa…

Last month, one of my readers reached out and said that he had discovered who wrote Shakespeare’s plays. I thought he must be out of his mind. Then I read his book, and ended up 100% convinced. We now know. His name was Thomas North. Interview here. richardhanania.com/p/the-man-who-…
