Elena Kagan Warns Supreme Court Rulings Are Hurting Democracy.

(ThyBlackMan.com) It’s not often that you hear the justices of the Supreme Court take on each other in their free time. That was left for biting dissents, of which there have been plenty lately. But that’s changing, and it needs to. One of those writing her share of biting dissents is former Harvard Law School Dean Elena Kagan. This week, she went public. In a conversation with Catholic University Professor J. Joel Alicea, who served as a law clerk to […]

2026 Midterm Elections: Will Trump and Republicans Face a Political Realignment?

(ThyBlackMan.com) With less than two weeks until the midterm elections, things look bad for President Donald Trump’s Republican Party. Generic polls show significant movement away from Republicans and toward Democrats since Trump defeated former Vice President Kamala Harris by 50% to 48% two years ago. Republicans seem doomed to lose their exceedingly narrow House majority, although redistricting by both parties over the past two years has reduced the number of competitive seats and will likely limit their losses. More surprisingly, […]

What Size Buffet Table Actually Fits a Standard Dining Room?

(ThyBlackMan.com) A buffet table brings storage and serving space into a dining room, but the wrong size does more harm than good. Too large, and it chokes the walkway. Too small, and it looks lost against the wall. Most homeowners eyeball the dimensions, then wind up with a piece that crowds the room or wastes good wall space. Getting the size right starts with the room’s actual measurements and a few clearance numbers worth memorizing. Know the Room Before the […]

Conference Room Seating Gets Overlooked Until Meetings Run Long.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Standing desks, two monitors, and espresso machines are staples in every office’s budget. Conference room chairs rarely get the same attention. That gap becomes obvious about forty minutes into a meeting, when people start shifting in their seats and glancing at the door. Bad chairs shorten productive conversation and pull focus away from the agenda. No facilitation technique fixes a room full of distracted, uncomfortable people. The following sections cover why seating matters and what to look for in […]

What Should Happen During a Routine Dental Visit?

(ThyBlackMan.com) A routine dental visit checks more than visible tooth problems. The dentist reviews the medical history, examines the teeth and gums, removes plaque buildup, and identifies any changes that need attention. X-rays are taken when symptoms, age, or dental history make them useful. Patients also receive practical guidance about brushing, flossing, diet, and future care. Knowing each step helps patients arrive prepared and recognize when follow-up treatment is needed, beginning with the initial health review. 1. Medical history and concerns […]

Why DeSean Jackson’s documentary is about more than the rise of a star NFL player.

(ThyBlackMan.com) The 2026 college football has the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference with two teams led by former NFL all-stars as head coaches vying for the top of the conference.

California Proposition 40: Could a Wealth Tax Repeat France’s Mistakes?

(ThyBlackMan.com) French economist Gabriel Zucman has come to California bearing a familiar French solution to a fiscal problem: another tax. Once based at the University of California, Berkeley, Zucman is back and campaigning for Proposition 40, which would impose an allegedly one-time five percent tax on the net worth of Californians worth more than $1 billion. Zucman, who coauthored the proposition, estimates that the tax could raise about $100 billion and claims that 90 percent of the proceeds would go […]

Europe’s Growing Unrest Shows the Danger of Political Violence.

(ThyBlackMan.com) What is troubling about the unrest spreading across Europe is not that people are taking to the streets. Protest is a legitimate part of democratic life. People have the right to object when fuel becomes unaffordable, schools deteriorate, public services fail, and housing slips beyond reach. Governments should hear those grievances and answer them. What should trouble every citizen is the moment protest becomes a license to loot, burn and terrorize. A peaceful march makes an argument. A mob that […]

Why the Los Angeles Dodgers Did Not Three-Peat.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Sports columnists and other talking heads went into overdrive explaining why the Los Angeles Dodgers, the unquestionable best team in Major League Baseball, failed to win a third consecutive World Series. If they had advanced from the National League championship round and then beat the American League champion the Dodgers would have become the first National League team to accomplish such a feat and one of just a handful of professional teams in any sports to win three consecutive […]
