    2. The Guardian: Do gut microbes have a role in autism itself? [Click] “Autistic people are more prone to certain gut problems – and a disrupted microbiome could be part of the reason.” The research is afoot! [I'm pretty sure my cancer treatments did quite a trip on my intestinal normal flora, but at long last it seems satisfactory.]

  2. Boeing will plead guilty to criminal fraud over 737 Max crashes [Click] The fine seems to be roughly equal to the cost of the two airplanes, which doesn’t impress me as much.

  3. Joe Blogs video: Russian Economy Starts to Break as Inflation Soars & Shortage of Workers Damages Future Growth [Click] I understand that support for Putin is particularly strong among Russian pensioners. Inflation is reducing the purchasing power of those pensions; I wonder if they will be cut any time soon.

    1. Excellent question!! Alan, were you using a different browser perchance?
      When I post via Chrome I'm "listener" but when I post via Safari I'm Anonymous. That's because I have two gmail accounts...my normal one on Safari and the one Renee made for me on Chrome. I use the "normal" one for other places that I post, so can't quit that either.

    2. Truth be told, it never caught my eye that yesterday Alan was posting as Alan in CA...! I wonder, Alan, did you notice? I wonder because you still signed every post.

    3. I didn't notice; could have been a different browser, but I don't know. Using Firefox at the moment, which is my normal browser.

  5. WASHINGTON (⭐️THE BOROWITZ REPORT⭐️)—Arguing that age has dimmed Donald J. Trump’s ability to lie, former congressman George Santos proposed on Monday that he supplant the former president atop the GOP ticket.

    “Over the course of his career, President Trump has produced an impressive array of falsehoods,” Santos said. “But now is the time to pass the torch to a new generation of liars.”

    Santos said that, although Trump spewed a continuous stream of whoppers during his debate with President Biden, “From the earliest moments, it became worryingly obvious that he is no longer the liar he once was.”

    “According to fact-checkers, Trump lied 30 times during the debate,” he said. “I could’ve done 60.”

    Santos said he was “saddened” to issue his assessment of Trump’s decline, but added, “As a board-certified neurologist I had no choice.”

    1. I still like those processes using superheated steam to decompose synthetic polymers into their starting materials (and some asphalt on the side). I fancy that "sanitary landfills" could be mined.
