Marriage follows the same pattern. Women now substantially outnumber men on university campuses and outpace them in degrees earned, yet the preference for husbands who match or exceed a wifeโs income and education has not correspondingly relaxed. The result is a radical market mismatch.
...these โsynthetic husbandsโ have incomes 58 percent higher than the real unmarried men available; they are 30 percent more likely to be employed and 19 percent more likely to hold a college degree.
The men whom women are prepared to marry bear little resemblance to their struggling real-world counterparts. The few who shape up to the fantasy are snapped up quickly.

"Throughout antiquity, education was oral. Times were changing, however, as the old order passed away, as imperial authority in the West collapsed, and as Europe fragmented into successor kingdoms. Strained economies meant less public education, and fewer aristocrats with the resources to hire private teachers. โFollowing the collapse of the taxation system that had formerly paid for the Roman civil administration, and the consequent loss or radical downsizing of the bureaucratic cadres, there was no longer any call for the services of the grammarians and rhetoricians who had drilled Roman schoolboys in the skills that made them eligible for a civil careerโ. A student might not have a local teacher available to answer questions and explain difficult texts. Cassiodorus took up the call to be the โAntiquarius Domini,โ the โBook-Producer of the Lordโ, creating the self-study guides for the coming generations of do-it-yourself scholars."

๐ The Seven Pillars: What Happens to the World If Russia Disappears Tomorrow
The West has spent several years trying to decouple from Russian industry. The results are not what they expected. In 2025, French imports of Russian titanium hit an all-time record. Brazil bought a quarter of its fertilizer from Russia. The US quietly carved out loopholes for Russian uranium until 2028. The world is not weaning itself off โ it is doubling down. If Russia vanished from global supply chains tomorrow, modern civilization would not just stumble. It would collapse. Here is exactly what breaks, and in what order.
๐น Aviation stops flying. Through VSMPO-AVISMA, Russia controls roughly 30% of the global aerospace titanium market. Before 2022, Boeing sourced ~35% of its titanium from Russia and Airbus over 50%. France bought a record โฌ129.9 million of Russian titanium in 2025. Western aviation simply does not take off without this metal.
๐น One in five American lightbulbs goes dark. Rosatom controls 36โ40% of the world's uranium enrichment capacity. Roughly a quarter of the uranium fueling US nuclear reactors is Russian-sourced. Every fifth lightbulb in America โ literally โ burns because of Russian industrial processing. Washington passed a ban on Russian uranium in 2024, then immediately carved out exemptions lasting until 2028. Why? Because the United States simply does not have enrichment plants of comparable scale, and building them takes the better part of a decade.
๐น Global harvests collapse. Russia is the world's #1 exporter of nitrogen fertilizers and #2 in potash. Brazil โ an agricultural superpower โ covers a full quarter of its fertilizer needs from Russian supply alone. Without Russian potash, Brazilian soybean yields could drop by up to 30%. India, Egypt, and much of Africa are in the same boat. There is no alternative supplier at this scale. The world's food system is literally fertilized by Russia.
๐น Every fourth loaf of bread disappears. Russia is the undisputed #1 wheat exporter on the planet, shipping roughly 48 million tons in the 2024/25 season โ roughly double what the United States exports. Egypt, the world's largest wheat importer, sources around 60% of its supply from Russia. Turkey, Iran, and nations across Africa depend on the same grain. One out of every four loaves of bread consumed globally was baked from Russian wheat. Remove it, and bread riots are not a metaphor.
๐น The global auto industry seizes up. Russia supplies 40โ43% of the world's palladium, the metal without which you cannot build a catalytic converter for any gasoline-powered vehicle. Norilsk Nickel alone is one of only two major producers on Earth. Opening a new palladium mine takes 5โ10 years. The industry holds 3โ6 months of inventory. After that, auto assembly lines from Stuttgart to Detroit go silent. Electric vehicles do not save you here โ the world still runs on internal combustion.
๐น Every microchip factory goes blind. Russia produces up to 30% of the world's high-purity neon, the gas that makes excimer lasers work โ the same lasers that etch transistors onto every processor in every iPhone, server farm, and AI cluster. Without Russian neon, advanced chip lithography below 7 nanometers simply stops. There is no quick fix: building a neon purification plant from scratch takes 2โ3 years. The semiconductor supply chain runs on a gas most people have never heard of.
๐น Your smartphone screen goes blank. Through the Monocrystal plant, Russia holds nearly 30% of the world market for synthetic sapphire substrates โ the transparent crystal covering your smartwatch face, protecting smartphone camera lenses, and shielding medical laser scanners. Monocrystal grows sapphire boules up to 350 kilograms using a modified Kyropoulos method that competitors cannot easily replicate. Substitute materials like Gorilla Glass cannot match sapphire's hardness and optical clarity. The glass on half the world's premium devices comes from a single factory in Stavropol.

Most of the news today is everyone breathlessly relaying clips of Fauci being grilled in front of the Senate, and taking the Fifth. Although humiliating, he went home to millions of dollars, and so far there is no sign of him being arrested, or tried. It would appear nothing is changing, at least right now.
