this report is really good stuff I love these charts, which are fascinating just for thinking about data and storytelling both charts a) display data correctly and b) tell you something true and important about the world and they're very, very different www.citadelsecurities.com/news-and-ins...

Largest road win for UVA men’s basketball since they beat Clemson by 35 in Jan 2021. Biggest in the non conference since beating UNC-Greensboro in Nov 2016. Largest road win against a non-ACC major conference opponent ever.

The conservative movement has turned against reality on every scientific issue of our time, from gun violence to climate change to epidemiology. If campuses are ideologically homogenous, it's not because academia has ostracized conservatives. It's because conservatives have ostracized academia.

The projection machine. Trump is the worst person to negotiate and he cheats all the time. On his wifes, on his business partners, on his employees, on his contractors. It is so embarrassing and so angering that he is the President of the US.

Had the chance to go birding yesterday, and caught a brilliantly colored blue jay perching on top of a tree. But when the jay flew to the ground, suddenly it looked much more drab. Why? 1/6 ⚛️🧪

Agreed. The team has come a long way, but the season as a whole has still been poor. Combine this with Sanchez’s unimpressive results at Charlotte and he’d never even be considered in an open market.

I don’t complain about tv announcers and I love Randolph Childress. A Wake and ACC legend. But having him do a Wake game is comical. Might as well have the Wake radio guys do the game.

These guys have had one or two college coaches. Maybe a couple high school coaches. Throw in a few AAU coaches. And he’s “probably one of the best” they’ve had. Not really the highest praise.

Ty Jerome had 26 points (9-16 FG), 5 rebounds, and 4 assists in the Cavs’ 129-123 win over the Grizzlies! 15 of his points came in the 4th quarter. #HoosintheNBA

i often think about how eons before cookie monster was conceived, or indeed before there were minds capable of conceiving, cookie monster was already there, waiting

Figure 28. This geode was serendipitously cut at a perfect angle, resulting in halves resembling the famous Cookie Monster (top). Coincidentally, the geode also showed blue fluorescence under long-wave ultraviolet light, reminiscent of teh character's blue fur (bottom). Photos by Robert Weldon: courtesy of Mike Bowers.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

I decided to treat states and nations alike by attaching their life expediencies. Then I merged them with all the countries with their life exp giving me a list of 252 political units. I then raked them , 1 is longest living, extracted the states and added how states ranked in the world.🧪💡☠️

Here I have posted a map of the states in the United States. Each state has a number attached to it and I have posted a list of all the states below with that number attached. Now I produced that number by taking a list of our states with the life expectancy, the age by which half of them die, and merged them with a list of countries with their life expectancy. I then sorted them so the longest living was on top, Hong Kong is number 1, and the shortest living , Nigeria was on the bottom ranked number 251.
