For many years, I’ve intended to write a book about what it’s like to be raised by a narcissistic parent — and about my struggles to understand what happened to me. I’m finally writing that book, which is called, “The Truth About My Father.”

As a side project, I’ve set up a new YouTube channel on which I’m going to be posting videos about some of the thoughts that come up for me as I write the book. I realize this isn’t for most people, but if you have some personal experience with narcissism in someone around you, it might interest you.

I don’t know how often I’ll publish new videos, but if you’d like to know more as they come out, just subscribe to the channel and click on the choice to be notified when new videos are published.

For now, you can see the five-minute introduction to the channel below:

I wasn’t prepared for what Catherine was about to tell me.

“I’m going to try to get pregnant next week,” she blurted out without any context.

Catherine just turned 19 years old. She still lives at home with a controlling mother. Her father killed himself when she was young. She doesn’t yet know how to drive and has to beg for rides to and from a menial job. She’s never had any romantic relationships, but she’s recently started slipping away from home to meet men for sex.

Just last week, she told me about how one such man — who she met online — picked her up and took her to a camper about an hour away from her. (She told her mother she was at a friend’s house.) They had sex for a couple of days, then he abruptly brought her back home — and then he disappeared from her life.

Now, she’s met another man online and she plans to meet him Sunday night. She’s never seen him in real life, but she’s planning to make sure he gets her pregnant. And she looked shocked when I told her that this plan was stupid and selfish.

Are the people running Disney’s film studios insane? Or are they just so committed to far-left ideology that they want to lose money by alienating their core audience?

In 2024, Disney plans to release its live-action remake of “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” This 1937 classic is one of the gems upon which Walt Disney built his company. So how could you possibly screw up a story which is already so widely loved?

Easy. You start by casting an actress from South America to play Snow White, a character whose defining characteristic was her, well, snow white skin. Rachel Zegler might be a superb actress, but this Hispanic woman looks nothing like the fair-skinned German woman from the fairy tale.

Then you get rid of the dwarfs and replace them with a “diverse” bunch of people who have nothing to do with the original characters. See the photo above? Those are the actors on set in one of several leaked photos. (The man on the far right is a stand-in for a new character. The Snow White figure is apparently a stand-in, too, not Zegler. The rest are the “dwarfs.” )

There’s one short guy. Several are black or brown. At least one — maybe two — appear to be female. Are some of them non-binary or trans-sexual? We don’t know yet. How exciting.

You now have “Snow White and the Seven Politically Correct Companions.”
