We literally have had a program of releasing millions of sterile male screwworm flies a year into the Darien Gap in order to prevent it from expanding northward into Mexico. What happened to that program under Trump? Who the hell knows--but welcome to screwworm! These guys are absolutely nasty.

Drivers apply their brakes more consistently for speed bumps than stop signs, which is why every pedestrian crossing at a stop sign should be a raised crosswalk as high as a speed bump minimum above the roadway.

McDuffie's platform favors reckless drivers and scofflaws in ways I find appalling. He opposes speed cameras that save lives. He wants to forgive parking tickets that law-breakers racked up by illegally blocking fire hydrants and bus lanes. He supports parking over bike lanes. It's all bad!

Was just reading about the broad-based decline in social media usage since roughly 2022, apparently most marked among younger users. Hope it continues. An interesting question is whether the badness is baked into the medium or is a result of mindless pursuit of engagement.

First, Democrats already completely avoid talking about climate. We checked TV Congress, our ad database, and sure enough: flat zero spent on ads coded "climate change" in 2020, 2022, and 2024, by either party. How's that working out for them?
