Russia is using a new weapon in Ukraine. A thermobaric warhead that creates a vortex of high pressure and heat that can penetrate thick walls, suck out all the oxygen in their path and inflicted injuries outside the blast zone:

As RNC chairman, Michael Whatley will face intense pressure to embrace the most extreme versions of Donald Trump’s false idea that the 2020 election was stolen. Whatley and his co-chair Lara Trump were handpicked by the former president.
Trump’s Man at the R.N.C. Will Face Pressure to Satisfy His Election Lies
The former president believes his pick to lead the Republican National Committee, Michael Whatley, is more in sync with his views about voter fraud than Ronna McDaniel, who steps aside Friday.

Breaking News: Donald Trump asked a New York appeals court to accept a $100 million bond as he sought a pause to the $454 million penalty in his civil fraud case, a clear sign that the former president lacks the money to cover the full amount.

よくまとまってる。メンタルモデルとしては国債は通貨発行であり租税はインフレ抑制と考えておけばよいのよ。国民にお金がないときは減税して通貨発行があたりまえ。バイテンもそうした。あれはえらかった

the desire to understand Trump's political persistence as a reflection of some deep authentic truth about What Americans Want, rather than a manifestation of the democratic distortions of the constitutional structure, has a real flavor of volkischness

Volodymyr Zelensky said 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed since Russia’s full-scale invasion began two years ago, a toll that is far lower than U.S. estimates.
31,000 Ukrainian Soldiers Killed in Two Years of War, Zelensky Says
The tally that President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed on Sunday differs sharply from that given by U.S. officials, who have said the number is closer to 70,000.

U.S. intelligence agencies have told their closest European allies that if Russia is going to launch a nuclear weapon into orbit, it will probably do so this year. The agencies are divided in their opinion about what President Vladimir Putin is planning.
U.S. Warns Allies Russia Could Put a Nuclear Weapon Into Orbit This Year
The American assessments are divided, however, and President Vladimir Putin denied having such an intention, saying that Russia was “categorically against” it.

Ukraine ordered the complete withdrawal from the decimated city of Avdiivka before dawn on Saturday, surrendering a position that had been a military stronghold for the better part of a decade to Russia.

しかも危険度を論じるための地道な調査って、大学の研究でもあるかどうかわからないんですよね

個々の動物のノミダニ感染率の論文
さらに、地域ごとの動物の生息数の調査
個人レベルで家のベランダなどへの出入りの数…
そういうのを統合しないといけませんもんね。
ペットのリスクを正確に分析するのはかなり難しそうです。

わざわざ個々に合わせて分析して説得するのも大変ですしね
永遠に論争が終わらなそうな分野だなって思います

ノミダニや狂犬病ワクチン、よく話題に上がりますね
狂犬病は法律で定まっていることですし、費用対効果の以前前提条件の部類かと思います

一方、ノミダニの場合、
犬猫にノミダニを感染させる要因であるネズミ、イタチやタヌキなどの動物がどこまで身近にいる?
上記とほぼ重なりますが、家の地域と築年数は?
それらの動物のノミダニ保有数は?
家人の行動範囲とノミダニの生息域は?
など。
危険度1%以下の家庭もあれば、危険度数十%の家もあるでしょう

前者をひと月数千円で防ぐなら賛否両論でしょうし、後者なら文句なしでお得です
防げる病気を防がなくてもいいとも言いにくいし、論争になりますよね

「言論の自由」を守るのと「誹謗中傷やデマ」を抑制するのは、その境界の曖昧なところで相反するのだが、現在のX、旧ツイッターの方では、結果的に「誹謗中傷やデマ」の方が保護されてしまっているような気がする。

Blueskyはまだ始まったばかりだから、問題が少ないだけかも知れないが、「よりマシなSNS」になることを期待したい。
