Important question for F1!
Does the Lando Norris Monster taste like pear because McLaren drivers are used to things going all pear-shaped?

Please advise (and distribute to the northeast because it's a nice flavor).

Important note from a trusted org re: holiday travel via LGA in NYC for people at risk of detention by ICE.
🚨 COMMUNITY ALERT🚨

At LaGuardia Airport, there are several rumored and one confirmed ICE arrest of domestic travelers.

If you are at risk of detention or not sure, exercise caution while traveling. Make a safety plan in case of detention and consult an immigration attorney.

Just a reminder, if you are "pro life" and "anti vax" then no, you aren't really. Pick a lane. Pertussis is deadly especially to newborns.
They did this in Louisiana and currently have their worst pertussis outbreak in 35 years. Ridiculous.
NEW: Officials at the Indian Health Service have deemed terms like “immunizations” and “vaccines” risky “buzzwords” that require approval to be used in social media posts, pamphlets and presentations for patients.

FYI if you use google's auto sorting this destroys that functionality, along w auto correct etc. You can manually recreate on desktop but not on app.
If you haven’t turned it off yet then this is yet another reminder
Google defaulting all Gmail users to a setting that enables Google to harvest all your emails into chatbot training is straight-up evil and invasive.

... his personal delusions and inability to understand the decades of research and testing that prove vaccines are safe and do not cause autism. The move will inevitably increase child mortality in the US and that blood will be on his hands and anyone who enabled his rise.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

Gonna just follow with 1 I think QUANTITY of material matters more, if all you hear is headlines repeated by your friend group on facebook etc. 2 I think it would be hilarious to continue this from June till now, bc I am reasonably convinced you see no uptick at all in the Trump numbers and age etc
Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.
NYT isn’t worth reading because they are in the bag for Trump

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”

“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath

Some costs aren’t costs.
One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss
Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.

We should also mention how Biden’s DEA jammed up our ability to access medication during Covid. This has still not been resolved!

I gotta say it was fun to wake up and find a brand new and well researched article supporting my vibe that politics needed a 3d axis, left and right being insufficient cuz most folks DGAF about ideology. TLDR this is why you have a Spanberger and a Mamdani. And why the moderate debate is stupid AF.

If there’s no shale gas then there’s no shale gas, but I still think environmentalism is basically bad and politicians should focus more on material prosperity.
