Scary thought: So since it’s not the guns, does this mean that the USA must have almost 700% more homicidal maniacs than all the other countries on this list combined? 🤔

Trump, Kennedy et al claimed yesterday that Tylenol causes autism, which the evidence does not show. (There was a LOT of eliding of correlation vs. causation.) Here is what the evidence actually shows.

Experts say Tylenol is the safest option to treat pain and fever during pregnancy.

This is mind-blowing. Norway has gone from essentially ZERO sales of non-emitting Battery Electric Vehicles to *94%* of new passenger vehicles sales. In about 13 years! Incredible.

Part of what made the “left behind” idea so terrifying was that you were taught that the only people left would be murderers and rapists and thieves. But if everyone who’s expecting to get raptured disappeared tomorrow the world would be a *much* more caring and peaceful place.

Great step for this moment in history, huh? FL had been the last GOP-led holdout on open carry.

The state AG said "to stop enforcing the decades-old ban, after a court last week ruled it unconstitutional."
