Trump bragged about grappling women by the pu**y & barging into rooms of partially dressed, young pageant contestants. A jury concluded he assaulted E. Jean Carroll in a dressing room. So nothing that’s in the Epstein emails is a surprise. It’s just confirmation.

This sounds reasonable but is 100% wrong. Whether you or agree or disagree with a study is completely immaterial. What matters is whether the study was conducted properly and generates valid results. And it's impolitic to say but it's true: you have to have some level of expertise to judge that.
JD Vance: "Science as practiced in its best form is that if you disagree with it, then you ought to criticize it and you ought to argue against it."

Years ago, I saw a Cray in an museum, and I fear I will never get used to seeing 'cool new tech' in a museum. This is probably how grandpa felt at antique car shows.

The long read: I knew he was running away from something. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered the truth

I think vacant storefronts in shopping districts and malls has more to do with a struggling working class unable to buy anything, but that suggests the economy is being mis-managed, and our leaders resent that idea since they and their wealthy friends are doing just fine.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.
