There's a lot of history in this photograph ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_... )
Meridian post office is on the National Register of Historic Places. The building is a bit worse for wear, with lots of iron oxide/rust stains in limestone. There are several steps of often broken concrete. The concrete looks like it has been wet a lot. Many structures look moldy. One might wonder why the government has abandoned this historic building.

Perennial case of "no" is the only answer to headline questions
Picture of a data center on the other side of a body of water or reservoir in front of a cloudless, hazy sky. Wall Street Journal headline reads, "Spending on AI is at epic levels. Will it ever pay off" with text beneath saying, "Tech companies are pouring hundreds of billions into data centers, taking on heavy debt, but current revenue is relatively tiny. Critics warn of a new dot-com bubble." The article is called a long read.

eat the rich
Three headlines from the Wall Street Journal: 1. Dow Drops as Wholesale Inflation Accelerates: "The producer-price index rose by a much- stronger-than-expected 0.9% in July. Wholesale Prices Surge at Fastest Monthly Rate Since 2022. 2. Americans' 401(k)s Are More Tied to Stocks Than Ever. Even in target-date funds that shift from stocks to bonds, more is going into stocks. 3. Mortgage Rates Slip to Lowest Level of 2025. Elevated rates and home prices have kept homeownership out of reach for many.

the weather app thinks it feels like 114 and it absolutely does not. people do not know what 114 feels like. wet bulb metrics are really weird and bad
