The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans... The French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. Conclusion: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

You see recurrent versions of this everywhere, i.e. the idea people get more conservative as they get older. This is broadly true of exactly one generation blessed to grow up with shared prosperity and a welfare state that then decided no one else deserved those things.

#BREAKING Australian actress Holly Valance says that everyone “starts out as a lefty” But then you “wake up” when you try to “run a business or buy a home” “And then you realise how crap their ideas are” Hard to argue, Holly.

The artist behind this painting, Criselda Vasquez, painted this portrait of her parents in 2017. The man in this painting, her father, was recently taken by ICE. He has lived in the United States for forty years. This loss has made it hard for the family to support themselves. If you want to support them, you can go to their GoFundMe here:

Ah yes, the birth rate decline began after the introduction of smartphones in...1957. prb.org/resource/the-u… More recent downturns appear timed more to the Great Recession: publichealth.jhu.edu/2026/is-the-us… Please let's stop with this trend of blaming everything on smartphones.

"In country after country, the birth rate plunged after introduction of smartphones, no matter what the previous trend was. The younger the age group, the more pronounced the downturn--a mirror image of phone usage patterns." @jburnmurdoch, so persuasive: ft.com/content/fba35e…

@faris @2Naveganta The bottom 99%? What percentage of those individuals are under the age of 18?

@faris The world is more equal than you think.
The shift is driven mostly by gains in low- and middle-income economies, rather than changes in rich countries. Poorer countries have grown faster than rich ones and consumption has risen with incomes.

They removed CD/DVD drives from devices.
They made physical media harder to buy and use.
They removed expandable storage from phones.
They pushed us into streaming subscriptions.
They made always-online normal.
They made unlimited internet necessary.
Then slowly raised the price of everything.
Ownership quietly became renting.

The Monterey Bay Aquarium charges $295 for a family membership or $125 for a single adult. With an EBT card, entry is free — and up to four guests get in free every visit. There is a ZERO incentive for these people to ever get off Food Stamps.
