Pew Research: People in Many Countries Consider the U.S. an Important Ally
For this Pew Research Center analysis, we asked respondents in 25 nations which country they think is the most important ally to their own. Then we asked which country they think poses the greatest threat to their own.
Pew Research surveyed almost 30,000 people and looked at the ally/enemy question several different ways. Respondents didn’t choose from a list, but could write anything down.
America Would Be Better Off If Trump Won in 2020
At first blush, the idea that things would be better had Trump been peacefully re-inaugurated on January 20, 2021, seems nuts. But we can all agree it would have been good if there had been no “stop the steal” rally, no gatherings of Christian-right extremists blowing shofars, no Capitol riot, no shattered windows, no dead or injured police officers, and no enduring right-wing myth of a rigged election.
An interesting thought experiment by a Leftist.
After three episodes, I posted that The Murderbot TV show is a disappointing 6/10. The rest of the season has redeemed the show. Murderbot had a slow start, but turned into a great show.
Sparky didn’t get to chase a rabbit this morning, so he explored the creek instead. He is pretty nimble and surefooted.
These States Now Allow OTC Ivermectin, and More May Follow
Currently four states — Tennessee, Arkansas, Idaho, and Louisiana — have passed OTC Ivermectin laws.
Federalism and states being the laboratories of democracy, is a good idea, but it seems odd that states set their own pharmacy laws. Since they do, it’s good to make Ivermectin an OTC medication. I might have hookworms. You don’t know.
Sweden Cracks Down on OnlyFans – Will U.S. Follow Suit?
Porn is an awkward topic. Anyone old enough and not specifically avoiding it, knows a bit about the evolution of pornography.
WSJ: My Digestive Tract Flunked a Health Test. Here’s How I’m Coping.
That is a photo of the journalist’s new-and-improved breakfast. It’s the worst looking thing I’ve ever seen. It doesn’t look like food. It doesn’t resemble anything. If it didn’t have the white stuff, it might resemble a scat salad. Mouse turds mixed with deer shit, with other animals contributing.
It’s supposed to be fruit, half of a granola bar, chia seeds, almonds and Greek yogurt.
Why would anyone eat that for breakfast? Just have black coffee and a cigarette, and live free.
How would anyone eat that? Put some yogurt on a spoon, and roll it in the mouse turds. Or mix it all together and eat a small bowl of disappointment.
The central Texas floods were terrible, with the Camp Mystic events being particularly tragic. Having a guy like this on the ground at Camp Mystic, directing the rescue efforts, had to be a great comfort.
Scott Ruskan, a 26 year old rescue swimmer for the Coast Guard, is a hero, and sounds like one.
Honestly, I’m mostly just a dude. I’m just doing a job. This is what I signed up for…
The Running of the Bulls is scary fun, but there is one challenge that is beyond terrifying. Participants sit on the ground in front of a door that will be opened to admit a charging bull into the ring. That’s what it was like at my patio door at 8 am this morning.
