Well this is interesting

She’s not Trump, who can have his full and actual condition kept secret, somehow never escaping out into the world.

Let’s see how long the cause of Kristi’s condition stays hidden. A botox-related diagnosis would be too juicy for a run of the mill non-military hospital to keep under wraps.

Huh. That’s a real possibility.

An Updated Lead-Crime Roundup for 2018 – Mother Jones

This graph has been around for a while. Also thrown around as an “explanation” for increased crime in inner cities. Obviously, this is not the whole story (crime never came back to the 1960 level) but there is a clear correlation. By the way, this is a really weird graph. I’ve never seen on set up like this. The green line is lead 1937-88, the blue line is violent crime 1960-2011. The idea behind this is that there is a significant delay between preschool lead levels and perpetrators of violent crime, and this tries to visualize that. I think it works, but I have also seen this used to try to debunk it. So, yeah, I guess “mass murderer” is a subset of violent crime. so, maybe?

Here’s the Mother Jones article in 2018 with that graph:

One of the interesting aspects is that the same correlation comes up in other countries as well.

Another good-ish news.

Preliminary results and all, but my main worry is the mRNA mechanism, which puts it square on the bullseye for Il Douche and his cronies. Of course, also, this would benefit LGBTQ+ folks, and thus probably labeled as DEI. Double whammy from a MAGA standpoint, but pretty damned exciting for a medical one.

Kaye, who was a member of the prolific Wrecking Crew throughout the 1960s and ’70s, emphasised that the recordings she contributed to was part of a team effort, writing, “[Y]ou are always part of a TEAM, not a solo artist at all….there were always 350-400 Studio Musicians (AFM Local 47 Hollywood) working in the busy 1960s, and called that ONLY ….since 1930s.”

I thought Donald Trump, who definitely does NOT want the Nobel Peace Prize, negotiated the end of the conflict between Rwanda and DR Congo.

Unfortunately even ridiculously cheap rollercoasters (by theme park standards) are still pretty expensive as a backyard toy.
