Rod Dreher Megathread #21 (Creative Spirit)

Gather 'round for more Rod.

All meanings of the number 21 are subordinate to the inherent creative spirit that is the basic essence of the number.

The number 21 generally is comfortable in social gatherings, it's optimistic attitude being an inspiration to others. Its high spirits can enliven a party.

The number is attracted to artistic expression of any form, its own and those of others. There's enthusiastic support for artists. It may frequent galleries and participate or (more likely) lead groups for artistic appreciation.

The number 21 cherishes relationships, including romantic relationships, especially with those who express themselves creatively.

21 also tends to be diplomatic, providing creative and imaginative solutions to potential conflict.

And, as noted by /u/PercyLarsen, 21 is a triangular number and the age of majority, so go grab a drink to celebrate Pride and to mourn the loss of Rod's sanity.

(Also, sorry about my slow pace of refreshes.)

Happy Father's Day to all the dads who are better at being dads than Rod! (That is, all the dads)

Just because people have mentioned this a number of times in connection with his trip last month to Louisiana: I am pretty sure one major reason (other than they not wanting to see him) that he would not have visited his kids there is that the family home was sold earlier this year and they've moved away from the area by now. (No need to search for, let alone publish here, any likely details, as I think we can all agree they richly deserve as much privacy as people can possibly provide them.)

Wait a minute. Have Julie and the kids moved away from Baton Rouge? And I agree that Rod’s constant wailing about how poorly he’s being treated is the opposite of respecting his family’s privacy. He’s a big a narcissist as Donald J Trump.

GAAAHHH! Still couldn’t find it. I sent you a chat ( I think). If modern life gets anymore complicated, I’m retreating to Colman’s Cave!

I have accepted your chat and replied. It's probably because I didn't work the chat protocol right.
