It’s a mystery
After two years of surging prices, economists still can’t agree on what has caused the world’s worst inflation crisis in decades.

This result should not surprise you in the slightest.
This is deeply troubling. Researchers are more likely to choose statistical models whose results align with their ideological priors. Seventy-one research teams independently analyzed the same dataset on the effect of immigration on public support for social welfare programs.

Not every military bombing campaign leads to a wider war, and not every regime change is guaranteed to be the catastrophe that Iraq or Libya was, but it does always creates a risk of that. An entire world war was started over one political assassination. Countless catastrophic

I’m so disappointed in the prominent right wingers supporting Trump’s attack on Venezuela, including many who should know better. I’m sure in 20 years they will be making excellent documentaries about how we were right and then mocking us as they support the next terrible thing

Alright, change of pace post (that few of you will care about). In preparation for the 50th (!) season of Survivor airing next month, here are my top 10 favorite seasons of Survivor: 1. Heroes vs. Villains (s20) 2. Cambodia (s31, 'Second Chances') 3. Cagayan (s28, 'Brains vs.

So if I understand this correctly Trump decided to remove Maduro because he wouldn't stop mimicking the Trump dance and then he replaced Maduro with someone else because Trump's pissed that she took his Nobel Peace Prize Astonishing

Opposing affirmative action does not mean you hate black people. Criticizing Israel does not mean you hate Jews. Opposing regime change operations does not mean you love dictators. This is obvious if you’re intellectually honest and can handle basic logic.

Season 5 was still decent though. Better than 3 for sure. Not as good as 1 or 4.

So, Stranger Things ends with Jonathan Byers literally talking about the anti-capitalist film he’s making in college, and none of his friends think that’s weird. In 1989, six months before the Wall came down, and you’re tell me Steve is like, “I’ll help!”?

Who spent the whole day chimping out about the moral hazard of this Venezuela thing actually going smoothly? Was it me? Yeah, it was me. Idk if this is selectively edited, but we already have an issue with the state dept overestimating their abilities.

If you look outside tonight, the moon is crazy bright, and the brightest light next to it is Jupiter.

Okay turns out episode 9 was the season finale. Kinda underwhelming honestly, but still highly recommend.
I’m 9 episodes in so don’t spoil the end of the season please

Well, that was the quickest regime change I’ve ever seen or remember reading about. I have to admit, I’m surprised and, frankly, impressed that they got Maduro so quickly. A couple of things that I think are important to remember here: This whole thing was sold on lies (like

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from Epstein + skyrocketing healthcare costs.

This video is from 7 months ago, but who cares? Madly click the re-tweets! War propaganda is about feeling good, not informing.
