The Morning Rant: Family Dinner Is Now A Bad Thing?
Secretary Kennedy’s message about the strength of community and the importance of sharing meals together should surprise absolutely no one. Like much of his and President Trump’s platform, it’s rooted in something (seemingly) fairly radical these days: common sense. But common sense doesn’t generate clicks like outrage does. Because let’s be honest for a moment here… It’s not bonkers to say we’re in a cultural — even spiritual — battle right now. It’s not bonkers to say that spending more time with your community is good for your health. It’s not bonkers to want kids spending less time glued to their phones and more time interacting with actual humans.
This is an entirely unsurprising response, because it is an entirely uncontroversial point. But the rabid left is maniacally fixated on anything that the Trump administration advocates, and they will attack it as if the administration is recommending that we eat and serve stray children and puppies for family dinner. Never mind that just a few years ago, RFK Jr. was the darling of the left, not just because of his famous name, but because he was seen as a brave warrior in the fight against traditional culture (even though he wasn't). But now? He is a tool of TRUMP! And a traitor to boot, so he must be destroyed, even when advocating for an unalloyed good thing. Of course family meals are an integral part of traditional American culture, so the left is attacking two things here. But that is who they are...they dispose America and American Exceptionalism, and President Trump is a Colossus of those two things! They have to drag him and his supporters down into the muck!

"It is an objective good, and it is backed up with a fair amount of data that show families that eat together are better in many ways."
Want to bet that the overwhelming majority of the pressitutes were raised in "families" which didn't eat together?

I favor articles like this. They are slowly, methodically making it undeniable to anyone with two synapses to rub together that they are a joke, a clown show, a veritable smorgasbord of silly. They are digging their own graves, and whistling while they do it.

Sigh.
I wish he would stop making me like a Kennedy. But here we are.
I mentioned this to my NP when they announced that HRT for women wouldn't have warnings or whatever. She said, I know just how you feel but... the heart wants what the heart wants! My doc said he's spent years trying to get ladies to take the HRT so they can feel good again and trying to convince them that those warnings were overkill. He was thrilled with that decision to remove the warnings.

So many of our best memories, both of my "family of origin" and my own family.
I cannot imagine what it must be like to live with their minds- is it worse that they might actually believe this, or that they are straight up lying for the cause?
The first is sad, but the second is just evil.
They need prayer, whichever.

Family dinner at my house growing up . . . five nights a week my mother, father, brother, and I ate at the dining table, something Mom cooked. She made good bacon, shrimp, baked potatoes, and breaded veal (remember when veal was affordable?). Her hamburgers and steaks weren't so good:
She mixed onion bits into the former and picked cuts of meat with thick, hard to chew fat for the latter. Still, it was solid food.
Two nights a week, when my father was away, she usually served us our dinners on trays in front of the TV. I have better memories of those times than I do of the other.

Jay Timmons and the National Association of Manufacturers loyally supported Trump. Trump unleashed RFK Jr. and MAHA to wreck member food manufacturing businesses by driving up costs, leading to increasingly higher grocery prices.
The fact that a certified anti science nutcase like RFK Jr was touted by Trump before the election, everyone knew who he was, and still Trump got elected vindicates Asimov 46 years ago: The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.
When Michelle Obama said school lunches should have a vegetable the right lost their damn minds calling it Marxism and communism and socialism and now when Trump/rfk say that and more and they want states to ban fast food and they want outlets to prove it’s safe to sell certain sugary drinks to teens it’s “yeah make us healthy!!”
Seems Trump’s policies and actions might be eating big corpos bottom lines. But they all funded and backed a know grifter and failed businessman. Too bad the little guy, again, gets screwed.

This is just another example of commies trying to destroy the family and any allegiance or loyalty to anything other than The Party.
This is Commie 101: destroy the family, create despair and hopelessness, and offer a fake salvation. If that don't work, then just line the nonbelievers up against the wall and shoot them.
Yet the commies will never ever criticize goatfuckers for their Iftar dinners or communal child rape clubs. As of today, commies see themselves aligned with the goatfuckers in destroying western culture. Commies don't realize that they will be next on the head-chopping block.

On our dinner table nights, our cat Rusty, who was smarter than average, knew to stay off the table while we were eating. He'd already had his chow anyway. He knew to stay off the table, too, if one of us had stuff spread on it, like when I was working on a model kit. If I were writing or reading, he'd hop up there and keep me company.

But seriously they're all leftards now and I'm the only sensible one, so go figure.
Although to be fair my mom has been Team Trump since 2016 and became a conservative when Dog Eater was in. But the others are beyond hopeless. Grown men "atheists" crying about global warming and "white supremacy" which, a reminder, is anything you say that they disagree with.

Still, my lunch today was homemade sourdough and soft-boiled eggs. With hot sauce.

>>When Michelle Obama said school lunches should have a vegetable the right lost their damn minds calling it Marxism and communism and socialism. . .
Oh no! No, you do not get to characterize her overhaul of school lunches as simply adding vegetables. She limited protein and added items that were routinely thrown away. As usual it would take paragraphs to refute this in detail, but they just want to lie and move on.

While in 1990, one third of Europe's electricity came from nuclear, today it's only close to 15%.
This reduction in the share of nuclear was a choice.
And in hindsight, it was a strategic mistake for Europe to turn its back on a reliable, affordable source of low-emission power.

They've already started. You can see it every once in a while now.
However, I do maintain that the Trump hate is unique. Unique in its femininity, stemming from Trump's sexual past, both real and invented, that won't be able to transfer to Vance or anyone else.
Does that mean that there will be no Vance hate? Of course not. But, the energy will be reduced in comparison.
"Trump is a sexual predator" is the base of a lot of the critique. Vance, who's been married one time and is having his fourth child with his current wife without a hint of impropriety is different. In addition, his wife is Indian, a minority, which undercuts a lot of the racism stuff at the same time. The only people who will care about the Indian heritage of Usha Vance will be podcasters who vote Democrat in every election anyway.

The only people who will care about the Indian heritage of Usha Vance will be podcasters who vote Democrat in every election anyway.

That's not quite true. It's well understood that appearance makes a difference in perceived flavor, as dumb as it sounds. The exact same soda (say, cherry), colored red, is reliably rated as tasting more "cherry" than the identical soda that's clear.

Yes, but we don't want artificial junk food that's terrible for most folks' health to BE perceived better than healthier options, not while we're paying for half the country's healthcare.
That's without even considering what the artificial dye might do.
And it's not like we haven't figured out how normal foods, like beet and spinach and tumeric, can color stuff...
So, when you have something that provides zero health benefit (and actually negative health benefit in use) and possible additional health harms, it should have been an easy no at the time...but things that got through the 90s and 00s on the non-denial loophole...

But it, I think, stems from a female desire to preserve the moral order. Partisan women can get really worked up to hate on a political figure they're supposed to hate if improper sex is involved.
It's what, I think, really fed the intensity of Trump hate from the left. Something I think the Democrat Party will just find hard to recreate with Vance who doesn't have the same biography that lends itself to that narrative.
And, since the left is majority women now, this effort to try and paint a good ole boy Marine who made good, went to Yale, and married the pretty brown lady as a sexual predator will just not work that well.

136 "Trump is a sexual predator" is the base of a lot of the critique.
Which can, of course, be translated as "Trump banged a lot of women... but not me."

I bet Trump has banged way fewer than JFK.

That's not quite true. It's well understood that appearance makes a difference in perceived flavor, as dumb as it sounds. The exact same soda (say, cherry), colored red, is reliably rated as tasting more "cherry" than the identical soda that's clear.

But it, I think, stems from a female desire to preserve the moral order.
Without starting the gender wars... would these be the women insisting on abortion on demand, no-fault divorce, and populating OF?
While women CAN be a pillar of societal order, the idea that women ARE based purely on them being women is questionable.

Well, it's their moral order, I'm talking about.
And in their moral order, men should be faithful to women. They should also pay for abortions when women get pregnant when they sleep around.
But leftist women are not big fans of men sleeping around in general, and especially Republicans whom they already hate.

Family dinners build character and prepare you for life. My parents were fond of what I called Strange Vegetables which made my young life a living hell. Rutabegas, turnips, kohlrabi, anything odd and preferably bitter would find its way to my plate. So! I learned how to forge strategic alliances with the indigenous population (the family dog), training her to stealthily remove the hated vegetables without Mom noticing. This skill served me well later in life. There is always someone willing to help solve a problem if you make it worth their while ... and the authorities don't need to know.

Pretty sure you're dead on. Most of the women I have regular contact with are older, mostly through church. They're baffled by what those younger women are like. Plus, the younger women hereabouts are nothing like what gets all the views. I suspect our idea of what "women" of an age cohort are like is distorted by the filtering effects of media, legacy, social, and otherwise.

My rule was that you had to try it but you didn't have to eat more than that. This removed the fight and my kids accepted a lot of veggies young because they were open to the experience.
Went out to dinner with my sister once and she was stunned that my kids ate salad and whatever vegetable they ordered with dinner.

But it, I think, stems from a female desire to preserve the moral order. Partisan women can get really worked up to hate on a political figure they're supposed to hate if improper sex is involved.
==
Zoom call fapping, intern banging, and tentacle porn say otherwise. Its all in-group out-group social credit. The vast majority of lefty chicks are herd animals. They want to be part of their group no matter what the group is doing. And the closer to the core of the group the better. Its a survival instinct gone wrong.

Sounds like they are contemplating banning the British bulldog and Corgis.
Posted by: Anna Puma at March 10, 2026
I wish them luck with the Corgi thing, especially since the logic is not applicable to Corgis. They, if well bred, do not suffer the genetic issues trying to be avoided (hurt backs).

Clarence Thomas married to a white woman is in the weeds stuff.
"The GOP presidential candidate is a racist, even though he has a brown wife," is the kind of stuff that actually gets to the less perennially online in the lead up to an election.

the British gov't is considering enacting breed purity laws that may ban as many as 67 breeds of dogs
they say it's for animals' welfare
short legs, pug noses, that sort of thing
in reality, it's pandering for muslim votes

Lotsa rage-bait on this topic. The "67 breeds" comes from a voluntary initiative aimed at breeders. It's not a dog ban or even proposed dog ban. It's basically a database and breed tool that identifies potential health issues in various breed combinations. There is evidence that breeding and cross-breeding frenzy has created dog breeds with physical and health issues. This was designed to address that.

The point is that the anti-Vance narratives will just have less fire and less broad support on the left.
The hard left and dedicated Partisans will keep it up. Vance will be trying to break down their doors to rape them every night.
But the ones who don't pay as much attention? "Vance? That guy? Really? Nah, I'm not going to protest over him being a sexual predator."

That is correct, and why I would never choose him for the GOP nom. It was a very ill-advised effort to quickly catapult himself to statesman status, but showed a devastating lack of both political acumen and ethics.

Someone noted recently that Vance has spoken about the Great Replacement and they think that will be a driver in the 2028 election. The media of course will probably be at “and it’s good that it’s happening” by then.

Reminds me of the infamous incident where some Hollywood organization advertised some event for African-Americans in the movie industry. Charlize Theron showed up, and was chagrined when they wouldn't let her in the door, despite the fact that she's more African than 99% of Hollywood.
Beautiful woman, but profoundly stupid.

When I was in junior high, pizza consisted of an opened hamburger bun with tomato sauce and two slices of American cheese on it, baked long enough to melt the cheese. It was still way better than what was depicted in photos of Michelle Obama's fraudulent healthy lunches.
I had the impression in junior high that the cafeteria staff didn't like us much, and would put out the cheapest crap they could get away with. They got in trouble eventually for things like the fake pizza. The Obama Lunches program encouraged cafeteria staff to wallow in their worst tendencies. I wouldn't be surprised if the staff pocketed some money.
Obama lunches were to food as Obamacare was to actual health insurance.

I would blame a staffer for coming up with her entire scheme but its so bad and stupid that only someone in charge would have let it through.
And the funniest part? Leftists are now saying "you hated Michele Obama for saying the same things as RFK!"
Um... she didn't even begin to say anything remotely similar beyond "kids should eat healthy." A statement so self evident that its insulting to even bring up.

We often talk about the memories we have of big family gatherings around the table- priceless. While we are empty nesters, we still eat at the table and I bring out the good stuff for Sunday dinner, why not.
We also as kids ate what Mom cooked or was brought home. Mom was not going to cook a separate meal for each of us, nor would we have asked that. We are glad when parents hold to the you eat what is made rather than be short order cooks.
