This is what it looks like when sheltered pundits treat serious issues as a parlor game, especially after the CDC attack.

I realize there's a collective shrug from the media but I personally find it so deeply shameful & so utterly repulsive that the Director of the NIH, Jay Bhattacharya, and the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, Martin Makary, are rubbing shoulders with RFK Jr's buddy Russell Brand

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Just got done reading the new @johnubacon.bsky.social book in time for the 50th anniversary of the Fitz going down in the lake they call Gitche Gumee. As a 7-year-old when it happened, it seemed unfathomable that something like this could happen to a ship that big. Thanks for a great read.
