FASTER, PLEASE: A promising new pathway to treating type 2 diabetes. Of course, it’s better to prevent it through diet and exercise, which usually works.
HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT: Biden’s race training for federal workers is designed to humiliate whites.
I’M NOT AGAINST ELECTRIC PLANES BUT I WANT TRANSCONTINENTAL RANGE: Pipistrel Alpha Electro Operator Shatters Electric Flight Records. “The airplane flew 730 nm, from Parafield to Eyre to There Aviation’s headquarters in Adelaide, shattering the previous electric flight endurance world record of 405 nm.”
That sounds good, but: “Since the airplane can only fly about 95 nm before recharging, and since charging stations are scarce, the record flight required a significant support team. The team included five ground support crew members, a second support (gas-powered) plane, two vehicles carrying recharging equipment for the aircraft and three pilots.”
SAN FRANCISCO ON THE FRONT RANGE: Denver unsheltered homeless counts have almost tripled since 2014.
THE AMERICA THAT WORKS: SpaceX launches 88 satellites on rideshare mission.
Also: Virgin Orbit launches 7 small satellites from jumbojet.
ALSO, PLEASE BUY AN ELECTRIC CAR:

“Outrage” is a drug on the market, and the Biden era demonstrates that #MeToo was all just political gimcrackery anyway. Plus: “Her tweet has raised concerns online from many about how she might handle sexual assault allegations in her role as dean.”
Yeah, God forbid she might demand due process.

A CURIOUSLY NARROW DENIAL: NSA: We never targeted Tucker Carlson’s communications with an eye to getting him kicked off the air.
MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS: Put your masks back on, and don’t whine about it.
It might not surprise you that the author spends much of her column celebrating “mask fight” videos.
A LONGSHOT BUT WORTH TRYING: Dr. Fauci Accused of Hatch Act Violations. “PPT respectfully requests that you ‘investigate whether National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director Anthony Fauci violated the Hatch Act in the course of conducting an interview with The Washington Post just days before the General Presidential Election in November 2020.'”
GOTTA BE RIGHT CAUZ IT QUOTES GLENN: Kerry Jackson of Issues & Insight fame has a super piece in the Orange County Register on the Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision affirming the private property rights of farmers against union organizers. You know it’s a solid piece because a certain Tennessee law professor is quoted.
21st CENTURY QUESTIONS: If Trans Women Are Women, What Does That Make Women? “If a man walks into a women-only space, such as a restroom or changing room, and he exposes his genitals to the women and girls inside, what should happen to him? Hold on, hold on, I’m not done: What if the man who’s exposing himself claims to identify as a woman? Now what should happen to him? If your answer to both questions is the same, obviously you’re a transphobe. You think just because somebody is biologically male, with visibly male genitalia, that means science has anything to do with how he feels. I mean she. How she feels. Clearly, the feelings of a trans woman are more important than the feelings of a genetic female. Any woman in a locker room who doesn’t want to look at some dude’s dong is just a bigot.”
