Testing the Empathizing–Systemizing theory of sex differences and the Extreme Male Brain theory of autism in half a million people | PNAS
Being in no position to verify, rebut or refute this finding, I simply offer it to you, kind reader, along with my brief comment.
In the largest study to date of autistic traits, we test 10 predictions from the Empathizing–Systemizing (E-S) theory of sex differences and the Extreme Male Brain (EMB) theory of autism. We confirmed that typical females on average are more empathic, typical males on average are more systems-oriented, and autistic people on average show a “masculinized” profile.
I thought so.
Dr. Fauci’s judgment call. Look out!
Uncertain trumpet. But look, he’s a longtime bureaucrat. So give him some room. Or, as with say with a different meaning, give him a wide berth. Don’t take him too seriously. (Which is advice lost on Democrat officials in blue states.)
Fauci Struggles to Explain Why CDC Won’t Say Vaccinated Are Safe to Fly ![]()
Telling the reporter “When you don’t have the data, and you don’t have the actual evidence, then you’ve got to make a judgment call” (Washington Examiner). Meanwhile, the data shows the rate of hospitalization for those over 50 has plunged (CDC). The New York Times now admits “New York City’s public schools have seen remarkably low virus transmission compared with the citywide rate of positive test results in the months since the nation’s largest school system reopened for thousands of students” (NY Times).

Biden’s nominee for top civil rights post hyped the Jussie Smollett hoax, criticized police for seeking actor ’s cell phone ⋆ American Wire
- Kristen Clarke, the nominee to lead the Justice Department’s civil rights division, fell for the false claims made by actor Jussie Smollett that he was the victim of an anti-black and anti-gay hate crime in 2019.
- Clarke also accused the Chicago police department of “demonizing survivors” after investigators requested access to Smollett’s cell phone.
- “Jussie Smollett was subjected to a racist and homophobic attack,” Clarke wrote on Twitter.
- Smollett was later charged with multiple felonies for making the false hate crime report.
Chicago’s own fix-is-in classic. Biden, or whoever’s deciding for him, wants to put her in charge of, what? Civil rights? Say it isn’t so, Joe.
President Biden Goes 50 Days Without a Press Conference
But what did we expect? He hid in a basement campaigning. It got to be a habit.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Biden will likely hold a press conference “before the end of the month,” although she has not been able to promise that the American people will see him regularly.
Above her pay grade, apparently.
When Face Mask Guidelines Are Not Found To Be Substantiated Scientifically, Government Resorts to Social Ostracism
On the road to mandatory masks: A crosstown journey
On this day I set my sights on the 7:38 #22 bus at Clark and Balmoral, destination the church of my choice at (roughly) Chicago and Ogden/Milwaukee, which is (roughly) a half hour by auto, an hour by bus. Not doing auto (a) for change and (b) driving takes more out of me that I want to expend so early in the day.
However: Getting to the Clark Street assignation early, I unfortunately decided what the hay, tempted by the appearance on the scene of the earlier bus, thinking I’d get to church earlier — for the 8:30 mass. Alas . . . but let the scene play out.
My Clark bus reached Lawrence, 8 blocks on, at 7:30, moving right along, hustle, hustle, driver doing his stuff, no nonsense. And before we knew it, Montrose, mile and half to go to my transfer. Then Irving, a mile. Making good…

Fauci: Daily new cases should be below 10,000 before US lifts pandemic restrictions ⋆ American Wire
When Dr. Fauci speaks, people listens. Makes good reading and table talk. It’s what he recommends, advises, thinks “would be” the thing to do, etc. etc. Good to hear his opinion.
. . . case levels may have to be “considerably less” than 10,000 per day for him to support rolling back mask and social distancing mandates in place in many U.S. cities and states.
. . . he disagreed with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s decision. “Well, I wouldn’t want to see . . .
“. . . would like to see . . . ”
“I’ll just pick a number. . . but I would say . . . ”
. . . he “would like to see . . . ”
. . . states could “gradually” pull back . . .
“I want us to all start getting back to some degree of normality, but we want to do that gradually and not all of a sudden, abruptly.”
Egad no!
Thanks, Doc. When you put it that way, you’re not such a bad guy after all.
