What year does NOAA choose as the beginning for "record"? It's relevant to the discussion.
Earth is 4.5 billion years old.
Humans have existed for 200,000 years.
This all comes off as political or quasi-religious because I can assure you that the author knows average people will read that headline and assume "begining of time". Hence I call bullshit.
As a millennial, I remember my Mom buying those Snack well cookies for herself, thinking they were more healthy than traditional cookies. I assume they compensated for less fat with added sugar.
The author of this piece, Kevin Drum on 7/15/19 - "Reactionary American whites, as always, won’t give up their power unless it’s taken from them....Liberals need to be as Lincolnesque as possible in this endeavor, but we also need to be Lincolnesque in our commitment to winning America’s latest race war."

Let me explain something to you guys, we worked through each "wave" and didn't really care. We were not "forced" to work. It was never a big deal.
The whole "woe is the working class during Covid" was just an excuse for neurotic professional class workers to WFH.
Does anyone believe this will be expanded to grocery stores, pharmacies and other basic services come fall? My job is already close to pushing mandatory vaccination and I'm trying to decide whether I should pack up my things and leave?
Here's some not so positive data - "recent University of Miami law school graduates borrowed a median of $163k, two years later were earning $59k or less."
lol you guys with focus group dialectic games. My dude. Forcing someone to stay in their house under threat of gunshot is tyranny. Same with covering their face.
