Climate Worries Rise but Dialogue Fades A Yale Program on Climate Change Communication survey reveals a gap between Americans’ increasing alarm about the impacts of climate change and news coverage of the issue.

According to a Yale survey, a majority of the American public is worried about global warming, believe it is affecting the cost of living, and want to vote for a candidate who will take action on the issue, yet media coverage and political discourse on the issue has been declining.

β€˜I wish I could push ChatGPT off a cliff’: professors scramble to save critical thinking in an age of AI As AI has upended the way students learn, academics worry about the future of the humanities – and society at large

AI criticism – or β€œdoomerism”, as the technology’s proponents view it – has been mounting across sectors. But when it comes to its impact on students, early studies point to potentially catastrophic effects on cognitive abilities and critical thinking skills.

Tucker Carlson called Nick Fuentes the future of the Republican Party and, judging by Gen Z trends, he may be right.

So many ways to do this. People with buckets, passing them hand to hand. Fixing oil crisis and unemployment crisis in one fell swoop. Or train birds to carry the oil in little baskets. Or, hear me out, simply pour it into the water and let the ocean carry it to the other side. Why is it so hard?

I'm not sure how European swallows would handle that climate. Maybe train larger African birds to fly above them and give them shade during the journey.

What's the point of courts if they permit agencies and people to violate the very laws those same courts exist to protect?

Oil Prices Spike Over $110 a Barrel, Highest Since Pandemic

1. We have huge oil reserves due to years of overproduction despite decreasing demand.

2. The stock market drives the global economy with a healthy mix of greed and hysteria.

3. Imagine if some sort of energy could be created without the use of a finite heavy pollutant. Wouldn't that be something?

According to a bizarre WSJ report, during meetings, Trump starts guessing people's shoe size and then orders them $145 pair of loafers known as Florsheims.

β€œAll the boys have them,” a female White House official remarked.

One joked, β€œIt’s hysterical because everybody’s afraid not to wear them.”
