Another exercise in critical evaluation of statistics from Adam. Short version: when a study looks at a lot of related outcomes and finds one pointing in the opposite direction to all the others, there's a good chance it's a statistical phantom.

One key thing about the current backlash against climate change is that it isn't grounded in any technical problems; it's purely the owners of fossil fuel assets trying to find greater fools to offload their investments on before they're completely worthless.

The bigger change is presentation, historically, these emails were visually chaotic: sudden colour changes, ALL CAPS, screenshots pasted at random. Classic signs of disordered thinking. Now theyâre neat, structured, and grammatically consistent. The delusion hasn't changed, but the formatting has.

Additionally, hippos - despite being massive - have almost no fat on them. All of that impressive bulk is muscle. 2% body fat. Compare that to Elephants, which are around 8-10%, or rhinos, which are 10-20%. The average human is around 20-40%, for reference. They're *all* muscle.
