Far-reaching, I'd say. Meta breaks down and hands over data disclosing identity of a user who thought he/she was anonymous. This actually may be a good thing. As sage Mike Tyson said: ""Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it." He's right, you know.
The Ultra-rich are staying in California. "...some of her friends have come to regret leaving the area". On the face of it, you might ask why. Some, like those in the UC system have exorbitant compensation deals that they would never be able to get anywhere else. Other ultra-rich have influence over the government. Yeah, I can understand why some ultra-rich would not want to leave. As long as there is an adequate supply of poors to service them, why leave?
We look like our names. Heh. Gotta love science.
Marijuana addiction is real. What's out there ain't your grandfather's Maui Wowee. I was trained to think that cannabis was safer than alcohol. Maybe in one way. But it has its own dangers. Oregon's downfall started the year they legalized this drug.
Local hospitals still facing financial headwinds. It's more than the vax. It's that no one wants to move to Portland (or even Oregon) as it has a reputation now. And it's still dangerous to live in the city. And we'll let your kids transition and not tell you. And we have a surgeon ready to cut off their genitals. We can't counter this with the wealth and culture advantages that the Bay Area or Seattle have, that might make some people look the other way. People are drugged out, on disability and therefore more of them are on Medicaid which reimburses poorly. Hospital leadership is lefty and subscribe to the latest progressive agenda. Only two genders? Wrong pronoun? You could get reprimanded and disciplined. Why not just work in a different state?
This is why some people are giving up on hiring workers and using robots, like this restaurant in Estacada.
America's Fitch rating dropped, and yet Biden still wants to add to inflation by forgiving student loans. Geez, guy, give it up already. The people knowing took the deal. Too bad no one wants to buy what they have to sell.
Yes! Pfizer profits plummet as vax sales evaoprate. However, like at Anheuser-Busch, nothing will happen to the guy at the top.
Why not? Japan is using Meta to get the hikkikomoris back into society. They're already online anyway, right?
Program director at Scripps gets Long Covid and decries the lack of urgency in finding better ways to treat it. Well this important and revealing study came out, but there's not been much news about it. Is it really Long-Covid? Or did the vax have something to do with it? All but one of these study subjects got jabbed. But what's the enthusiasm for a jabbed scientist to investigate why the mRNA persists for many months?
Doctor gets knocked unconscious near Providence Park. Random dude comes out of nowhere, decks her, then runs. This is all too common, and it's not just happening to people living near encampments. This lady's lucky. Something worse would likely have happened to her if her boyfriend were not with her.
