"Anthropomorphism is the act of giving human traits, emotions, behaviours, or physical forms to non-human things like animals, gods, and objects." So all I have to do is give my umbrella or the weather a human trait... Like recognizing preparedness!

I mean even things without faces. Like pattern recognition plus the creation of intention. "It won't rain if I carry an umbrella." or "My phone is listening to me."

You are correct, I focused on your "red state food sales taxes" rather than the combination of state, county, city etc sales taxes. It would be politically useful to report on how residents of these cities are suffering more than other, more progressive cities. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sales_t...

Graphs that start their Y-axis above 0 omit a whole chunk of how much lower the number can go. Sure, it magnifies the little wiggles within the range of historical values, but it still leaves out that giant cliff waiting for the fall.

Washington state offers online ballot downloads and email delivery of ballots. I can understand why the USPS would still have a role, but they shouldn't be checking who gets and returns ballots. Maybe they could work on filtering junk mail instead.
