He may not have won Gold in Snowboard Cross but he did make to to the Small Final and literally should get a gold for best mustache at the #MilanCortina #Olympics.

Important for people to realize that like 30% of all the bad stuff in society is already explicitly illegal it's just not enforced.
Three delivery apps, including UberEats, will pay NYC delivery workers $4.6 million after they violated the city's minimum pay law.
The Mamdani admin will announce the settlement today, which comes after enforcement action taken by the city.

I am a climate scientist and this is correct.
As the planet warms, storms like the one today are getting stronger… and as the Arctic is warming twice as fast as the mid latitudes, it increases the risk of the “freezer door” swinging open.
