me because they show it so obviously. Is that your experience men that when a woman is interested in you, you know it so easily. It's never a surprise, is it?

So anyway, according to Daniel Greenfield, he's writing that one in three Americans feel lonely every week and one in five feel lonely every day. And less than half of households are headed by married couples now and 63% of single people are not looking for a relationship. And this next one is the thing that blows my mind. The majority of Gen Z didn't date as teenagers. They didn't date. Almost two-thirds of the young generation didn't date at all as teenagers. I wonder what that used to be. Well, so things are bad there.

According to Nick Nolley on Breitbart News, during the first half of 2025, reruns of the old Gunsmoke TV show in black and white from what, the 60s, reruns of that earned more streaming minutes than any of the Disney syndicate movies. So I have to confess that recently I sampled some old Gunsmoke TV show on Netflix I guess. And the reason was that all modern content is terrible. And I discovered that looking at really, really old content is kind of fascinating. It's not entertaining in the traditional modern way, but it's absolutely fascinating to just see the old sets and you know the way they did things, the way they talked and how rapidly they developed a story instead of making you watch two gay people make out forever so that you can know, okay I got it. I got it. They like each other. I got it. Okay I got it. So the old stuff would just skip everything that was boring and just give you like a tight little story. The modern stuff usually has some director who's got power and the director says, oh no we need a good 10 minutes of these gay people making out because otherwise how will the audience know how much they like each other? So the old days was much better content even though even the old comedies I was watching like Newhart. I watched Newhart the original old very old black and white because I remember laughing hysterically at it when I was a young child. There are not even any jokes in that thing by modern standards. There's not a single joke and it's a comedy. Now that's fascinating to me to find out what used to be funny, but you would not laugh once. You could watch — I think I watched about several episodes in a row. Not one laugh, but yet fascinating to see how they made it in the old days. I liked watching it, but no jokes that you would recognize by today's standards.

Well, Trump has signed something called the Halt Fentanyl Act. It's going to permanently classify all fentanyl related substances as schedule one and it gives law enforcement some tools to work on that. That's good. I don't know if that'll make any difference. And separately you know that China has agreed to do more on fentanyl because they've got a permanent tariff on them. Trump has put an extra 20% tariff on China because of fentanyl. They weren't doing enough to stop the flow into the US, the precursor flow. So China's done some things and arrested some people and acted like they're doing something about it.

Now like I said about Trump monetizing the Ukraine war instead of solving it, he said well all right if you Europeans really want this war to go on, how about we just sell you weapons and we make a profit
