Like it or not, America is a load-bearing pillar of the global economy and handing power over to a bunch of people who value online grifters over scientists has dire consequences. They should be trying Vinay Prasad and RFK Jr. at The Hague.

I just ate this sandwich from Nordic Preserves at Essex Market and it was so good. Heartbreakingly good. Hauntingly good. I can never forget this sandwich. It was so good I had to post on social media about it.

The problem is there is no place to replace it for interaction. (At least for me.) I miss normal message boards, forums, whatevers. Best idea is to go meet up with a friend for coffee.
