So normally, the Jet Stream starts at about 7 kilometers above sea level, Was trying to track it today and its looks broken. Image at 9 KM up, no clear path from Windy.com At the surface, some west to East winds have changed directions of thousands of miles. Have we broken the weather?

Our brief exhilaration, when finding ancient quotes to summarize current problems, erodes under the realization that it means the problem itself is ancient, and still hasn't been fixed...

Let's check the CDC data: Yes, child mortality steadily decreased as vaccines were introduced and became more common place.

Dad 4 Ever @dad4ever.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

From the CDC's own data. The data on vaccine impact is obvious. Vaccines save lives.

US Mortality Rate by Age - 1900 - 2010
CDC archive cites vaccines as the primary contributor to lowered infant mortality.

Awoke into a post apocalyptic dystopia where greed-demons rule over mortals, as the world turns against them with fires and storms. Figured this Isekai should hand me some mystic powers at any moment, only to realize it was just Thursday in the USA. So, Friday must be the ruthless AI overlords?

Carbon monoxide from wildfires in circulation thousands of miles away, resulting form climate change induced drought. The extreme weather is destabilizing basic circulation patterns, while producing more greenhouse gasses. The cascade effect is feeding upon itself...

Rate data since Newsom came into office: 2019 Statewide averages for California residential power. Definite rise in costs for residents over his time in office. Note: Commercial rates are always lower, by 25 to 30%, but have also risen in parallel to residential rates. I like Newsom, but still...

Does the guy in the trench coat KNOW he is just a bunch of raccoons? How could he? It's not like the raccoons will ever tell him, and give up their fun. But, still, there must be signs. So if you cannot understand your own behavior at times, look for signs of raccoons.

It is really disturbing to think that the last Republican to speak like this was Eisenhower. None of them have even come close in the last 50 years. An Eisenhower conservative would be considered a liberal at this point, all because "center" has steadily moved further and further to the Right.
