The one favored by my own schoolmasters was King Richard the Second facing down the Peasants' Revolt at Smithfield in 1381 - the more impressive in that Richard was only 14 years old at the time.įrom those to whom we've granted dignity and honors, we expect more than the usual. On the other hand he may, by a display of courage and dignity, and with strong calm words to persuade, pacify the mob and defuse the threat. The brave person who steps forward and confronts the mob may of course get stomped to death. Had one person done so, he would now be the frontrunner for the presidency in 2024. Sample quote from my friend's email: Not a single person had the courage to go out and confront a man wearing buffalo horns flanked on either side with what looked like cast tryouts for Duck Dynasty. I posted that comment here at, January 10th. He emailed in a comment on my January 8th podcast. It was a passing thought for a friend of mine. I think that had to be a passing thought for anyone watching those scenes. Dramatic, supererogatory displays of dignity are not out of place in the Capitol, as they would be in my living-room. Capitol, where different standards should apply. Our legislators were just doing the prudent thing - the same thing you or I would have done, probably.īut then, this was the U.S. It wasn't very dignified, although in the nature of things I guess it couldn't be. At one point they showed film footage of the senators and Congressmen - those wise elders of our nation - scampering off to safety under the guidance of armed Capitol Hill cops while an un-armed mob filled the corridors. The story floated into my mind this week during the impeachment proceedings in Congress. It is, or at any rate used to be, a favorite with teachers. If you did high school Latin, you probably know this one. I'll start this week with a story from the classics. That, sort of, is what my opening segments are all about.Ġ2 - Power and dignity. I apologize for all the dirt and smell, but one must do one's duty. This week I do a dumpster dive into the nation's politics. And Radio Derb is on the air! A welcome here from your cyclically genial host John Derbyshire, with some highlights from the week's news. (From Hungary.)Ĥ4m23s Vaccines for Guantánamo? (No: but why are Mohammeds still there?)Ĥ6m28s Controversy spreads. (Cherish localism.)Ĥ2m50s Good news on fertility. (Common in immigration.)Ĥ0m57s Oklahoma still OK. (We know, they know we know, they don't care.)ģ5m42s Stories that write their own comment threads. (And institutional Republicanism, hell no!)Ģ6m27s Masters of silence. (What's driving it?)ġ8m18s Trumpism yes, Trump no. (A story from the classics.)ġ2m27s Impeachment psychology. (We expect more than the usual.)Ġ6m18s The stuff Romans were made of.

We also got some pointers from pro sexologist Emily Morse, Ph.D., host of the “Sex With Emily” podcast, because these positions are definitely tricky, and we don’t want anyone injuring themselves too badly in the name of getting off.00m52s Power and dignity. Yes, they’ll take some extra physical effort, but the challenge looks not only fun, but could be so worth it if you discover that it takes you to a whole new pleasure level. So, instead of having to come up with spontaneous, sex-master-level sex positions-or literally just memorize a bunch of out-of-the-box ideas- yourself, we came up with a list of eight crazy sex positions that are 100 percent worth the attempt. After all, most people I know don’t have mental encyclopedias of sex positions-especially new ones-they can whip out and execute on command.

But despite being turned on, I wasn’t quite sure how to translate that motivation to try something new between the sheets with my fiancé. Their sex was hot, exciting and something I’d never really seen. I felt like I was the most boring sexual being on the face of the earth-at least compared to these wild characters. I’ll be real: For me, it happened recently when I was watching an epic Game of Thrones sex scene. (And it doesn’t have to be that difficult.) But it’s worth it to switch up once in a while. And yet, don’t you ever have those moments-even if they’re few and far between-when you just want to try some crazy sex positions? Where instead running through your usual angles, you want something a little… different? Sure, the sex positions you always use might be a little easer-at least, easier than contorting yourself into a position that looks like it belongs in an advanced-level yoga class and trying to sync up with your partner so you can both get pleasure during the (complicated) deed. They’re efficient, fun, and-hey, I’ll say it-easy. Slow, lazy sex on a rainy Sunday morning or tried-and-true sex positions that get the job done are necessary for a satisfying sex life, IMHO.
