โThe particles are in our blood, brains and guts โ and scientists are only beginning to learn what they do.โ
Microplastics like those from car tires. The bigger and heavier the vehicle, the more microplastics shed.
One of the earliest examples of bar jokes is Sumerian (c. 4500-1900 BC), and it features a dog: "A dog walked into a tavern and said, 'I can't see a thing. I'll open this one'." The humor of it is probably related to the Sumer way of life and has been lost, but the words remain. (1]

I also quite like On The Edge. That was easier for me to play and can be a bit silly.
At least she didn't get into Netrunner. It's hard to find the cards (although I think there's a project that makes new cards and keeps it alive?) and every time I try it it fries my brain.

Good point, we had a thriving youth work BA where I worked 2007-13, in a cash-strapped northern city. I helped to write and validate a progression MA but it never really took off due to these massive cuts, which never made national headlines.

That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well. In essence people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly arent usually on our side.
