“Tea, Earl Grey, Hot”

The command issued by the character Captain Jean-Luc Picard in the television series “Star Trek: The Next Generation” finds its way into the archive of photographs of Nobel Laureates consorting with politicians at the University of Michigan and elsewhere.

…”There’s not good math explaining forget the physics of it.  Math explaining the behavior of complex systems yeah and that to me is both exciting and paralyzing like we’re at very early days of understanding you know how complicated and fascinating things emerge from simple rules…” — Peter Woit [1:16:00]

Since 1936 the Brown Jug has been the ancestral trough of generations of University of Michigan students and faculty — notably. Donald Glaser (inventor of the bubble chamber) and Samuel C. C. Ting (Nobel Laureate) whose offices at Randall Laboratory were a 2-minute walk around the corner from The Brown Jug.  As the lore goes, the inspiration happened whilst watching beer bubbles one ordinary TGIF Friday.

The Brown Jug is named after the Michigan vs Minnesota football trophy, which is the oldest in college football.

“Presently we saw a curious thing: There were no clouds, the sun was going down in a limpid, gold-washed sky. Just as the lower edge of the red disc rested on the high fields against the horizon, a great black figure suddenly appeared on the face of the sun… the handles, the tongue, the share—black against the molten red. The fields below us were dark, and the sky was growing pale, and that forgotten plough had sunk back to its own littleness somewhere on the prairie.” — Willa Cather (My Antonia, 1918)

British High Schoolers Try American Fried Chicken, Biscuits & Sausage Gravy

Biscuits and sausage gravy is firmly rooted in Southern American cuisine, which has a rich history influenced by African, Native American, European, and other culinary traditions. The combination of biscuits and sausage gravy reflects the availability of ingredients in the South, where biscuits (similar to a type of British scone) and pork products were common.

The concept of biscuits, similar to what Americans call biscuits, has British origins. Early settlers brought this baking technique with them to the American colonies. However, the American biscuit evolved over time to become lighter and fluffier compared to the denser British biscuit.

Eggs Benedict & Cowboy Coffee

Standards Wyoming | Kitchen Standards

“A Social Critique of the Judgement of Taste” — Pierre Bourdieu, Harvard University Press 1984

Cowboy Coffee | Appetite for Knowledge

Vicki Hayman, University of Wyoming Extension Nutrition Educator, explains how to put together an English muffin, poached egg, Canadian bacon, and a homemade hollandaise sauce named after Lemuel Benedict, a Wall Street banker who, in 1894, ordered a hangover remedy at the Waldorf Hotel in New York. He requested buttered toast, poached eggs, crisp bacon, and hollandaise sauce.

The hotel’s maître d’hôtel, Oscar Tschirky, was impressed and adapted the dish for the menu, swapping bacon for ham and toast for an English muffin, naming it Eggs Benedict in his honor. Another claim links it to Commodore E.C. Benedict, but the Lemuel story is more widely accepted. The dish’s luxurious combination of poached eggs, ham, English muffin, and hollandaise sauce cemented its fame as a breakfast classic.

 

Anglosphere colleges have not always been settings for the Ideological Gatekeepers that persist in lording over higher education; despite recent federal legislation chipping away at their hegemony.  Until the 1960’s  far more colleges were conservative or traditionalist in their political and cultural leanings for much of their history; though exceptions were satirized in Jonathan Swift’s ‘Gulliver’s Travels’.

Historical Context in the UK

  • Oxford and Cambridge (founded in the Middle Ages) were long seen as bastions of tradition, Anglicanism, and Tory/conservative values. In the 19th century, Oxford undergraduates were predominantly Tory. They emphasized classical education, hierarchy, and continuity with British institutions.
  • They produced many Conservative leaders and maintained strong ties to the establishment.

United States

  • Early colonial colleges (Harvard 1636, Yale, Princeton, etc.) were founded with Protestant religious missions to train clergy and gentlemen, instilling traditional moral and classical values. They were socially and culturally conservative by design.
  • Into the early–mid 20th century, many elite universities maintained conservative social norms. Faculty surveys from the 1950s showed more balance (or moderate lean) compared to today.
  • The 1950s–early 1960s featured active conservative student groups even on liberal campuses. The broad institutional culture was more aligned with tradition before the 1960s “counterculture” (which doesn’t mean there wasn’t religious and racial discrimination).

Canada, Australia, and Broader Anglosphere

Canadian and Australian universities historically reflected British traditions and were not uniformly left-leaning. Overall, universities across the Anglosphere were shaped by religious foundations, elite reproduction, and classical education traditions that prioritized stability, hierarchy, and Western heritage.

Summa: Anglosphere colleges were frequently “conservative” (traditionalist, establishment-oriented) for centuries. The perception — and the fact of them — as inherently left-wing is largely a post-1960s phenomenon; elevated from the large central government aspirations of  Democrat and 36th US President Lyndon B. Johnson, himself a school teacher, through his signature legislation (Higher Education Act of 1965).  It has been an uphill battle ever since for families seeking to convey loyalty to traditions of personal responsibility, religious tolerance, limited government, and fiscal conservatism to the next generation.

The Liberals are Coming and They’re Bringing Fancy Coffee | Kristin B. Tate

North Dakota has a strong rural, conservative identity* that many residents value, and concerns about preserving that amid population shifts are common. While discouraging specific groups based on politics could veer into unethical or illegal territory, here are some legal, community-focused strategies citizens might use to emphasize the state’s unique character and potentially make it less appealing to those seeking urban amenities or progressive policies that destroyed the cities they flee.

  • Advocate for policies that reinforce rural priorities
    Residents can lobby for state laws that prioritize agriculture, energy production (like oil and coal), and low-density development. For example, supporting zoning restrictions that limit high-rise buildings or large-scale urban sprawl could maintain the open spaces and small-town feel.
  • Promote cultural and lifestyle differences publicly
    Through social media, local newspapers, or community forums, highlight the realities of North Dakota life—harsh winters, limited public transit, fewer entertainment options, and a focus on self-reliance. Sharing stories or campaigns about why urban transplants might struggle can naturally filter out those expecting city conveniences.
  • Strengthen local conservative networks
    Organize or join groups like the North Dakota Republican Party, farm bureaus, or hunting/fishing clubs to amplify voices on issues like Second Amendment rights, low taxes, and minimal government intervention. Hosting events that celebrate these values might signal to potential movers that the political climate leans heavily one way.
  • Support economic incentives tied to traditional industries
    Push for tax breaks or programs that favor farming, ranching, and fossil fuels over tech or service sectors that attract urban professionals. This could slow the influx of people seeking remote work opportunities in “progressive” fields.
  • Engage in voter initiatives and education
    Citizens can campaign for ballot measures that protect against perceived urban influences, such as limits on property taxes or environmental regulations. Educating newcomers on local customs and expectations through welcome packets or town halls could also subtly encourage those who don’t align to reconsider.

Keep in mind that migration is often driven by jobs, family, or quality of life, and North Dakota has seen growth from various sources. If the goal is preservation rather than exclusion, focusing on positive community building might be more effective than deterrence.

American Highschoolers try REAL British food for the first time!

In today’s episode we visited an American High school to see what they think of British Comfort Food! — Josh & Ollie @JOLLY

Approximately 80–85% of the USA’s founding stock (the European-descended population that established the country by the late 18th century) originated from the nations of the United Kingdom/British Isles — primarily England, with significant contributions from Scotland (including Ulster Scots/Scots-Irish), Wales, and Ireland (then under British rule).

This figure is based on the 1790 U.S. Census and scholarly estimates. Among the roughly 3.2 million European Americans at that time:

  • English and Welsh: ~60–64%
  • Scottish (direct and Scots-Irish): ~15–16%
  • Irish (mostly Protestant): ~5–6%
  • Total from British Isles/UK nations: ~80–86%

When leaving the large coastal cities aside, the share becomes even higher — often 85–95%+ in rural, interior, and non-coastal regions (New England countryside, Appalachian backcountry, Southern Piedmont, etc.). These areas were overwhelmingly settled by English, Scots-Irish, and other British Isles groups, who shaped much of early American culture, law, and westward expansion.

The remainder of the white population was mainly German (~9%), Dutch (~3%), and smaller groups. The founding stock refers to the colonial-era core population (pre- and around 1790) and their descendants, not later immigration waves.

By contrast, non-coastal, rural, and interior regions –Great Lakes Midwest, Mountain and High Plain Heartland, New England countryside, Appalachian backcountry, Southern Piedmont — were overwhelmingly British in founding stock:

  • New England states routinely showed 93–96% English ancestry (e.g., Connecticut ~96%).
  • Scots-Irish settlers dominated the Appalachian interior and backcountry South, forming a major cultural stream distinct from coastal planter elites.
  • Pennsylvania was an outlier with more Germans, but this was concentrated in certain counties rather than uniformly coastal.
  • Western Michigan was the destination for Dutch expats who were driven out of New York City boroughs.
  • Upper Peninsula Michigan drew Baltic/Hanseatic populations from Scandinavia

Excluding the large coastal cities therefore makes the UK-origin share even higher — often 85–95%+ in the rural/interior “heartland” founding population. These interior groups (English Puritans/Yankees, Scots-Irish borderers, etc.) were the primary expanders westward and shaped much of early American culture, law, and demographics outside the ports.

In the American experiment, race has proven to be the one constant that outlasts ideology, economics, and time itself.  Understanding our roots and our branches is made easier through food.
