I can hear the sound of the cash register: The Brit tabloids—aided greatly by Drudge and a more than willing pregnant transsexual Thomans Beatie—continue the PR blitz of the female pregnant man who is soon to give birth (in only 4 weeks!!!). See the bare-skinned pictures!!! They want more babies!!! Count the money of the soon to be coming book deal and the tabloid ring ups at the cash register!
Of course, as we have discussed here at SHS, legally he is a he—but biologically where matters such as this really count, he is a she. Hence, no real story. But the Oprahization of our culture is continuing to bring us down, down, down.
Dear Reader,
Can I be direct with you?
War abroad. Socialists on the rise. AI upending human life. Endless uproar online. The modern attention economy doesn’t want readers — it wants users enslaved to the tyranny of the present.
First Things is the antidote: literary excellence, timeless truths, and a fixed point of reference in a culture that has lost its bearings.
But we can’t do it without readers like you.
Our goal: Raise $150,000 by November 1 to sustain First Things in the year ahead.
Your gift anchors readers in the permanent things.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact Giovanni Del Piero, Director of the Editor’s Circle, at gdelpiero@firstthings.com or 212-627-1985.
