UM…: Revolutionary ‘Life Hack’ Teaches People How to Make ‘Fresh Pasta’ From Pasta.

Exit Question: When did “doing stuff” become “life hacks?”

WELL, YOU COULD BAN THE COLLECTION, SAVING, AND SELLING OF PEOPLE’S DATA, but that would interfere with the big-tech graft. Australian report cites ‘datafication’ of childhood.

NO POINT TRYING NOW, I GUESS: IPCC: Chances to save planet from global warming’s worst are running out.

NO SURPRISE:  “Poster Child for Sex Changes is Miserable, Says ‘I Don’t Feel Like Me, Ever.'”  In the last 18 hours, I have heard from no less than two friends of mine who told me that their daughters who had hopped on the transgender bandwagon now realize that they are not transgender and are again happy to be girls.  The spell may be starting to lift.

MEANWHILE, OVER AT VODKAPUNDIT: Russia’s Latest Battlefield Antiques and the New, New World Order. “The establishment of a new New World Order races along as some of Russia’s oldest tanks creak their way towards battlefields in Ukraine.

CDR SALAMANDER: Japan Puts Down a Marker in Europe. “More than is apparent to the outside eye, her national security community – both uniformed and civilian – are very clear-eyed about the world in which they find themselves in 2023. They are taking steps to take her rightful and deserved place in the first tier of nations in national security, but they are small, direct, and cautious steps – but steps they are. With all the above, the last few days brought a very significant moment for Japan and her friends.”

EVERYTHING IS GOING SWIMMINGLY: Child mortality is rising at the fastest rate in 50 years.

Pediatric death rates are rising mostly because of injuries, as opposed to diseases such as cancer and COVID-19. Boys are dying at nearly twice the rate of girls. Black and Hispanic boys are dying in homicides at much higher rates than non-Hispanic whites.

But researchers found the death rate rising for children of both genders and multiple races and across several causational categories, from car accidents to drug overdose.

I wonder how much of this deadly risk-taking is due to kids not being allowed to take safer risks when they’re younger.

JEFF GOLDSTEIN: Democrats for Assault Weapons! An autopsy on police response to the Uvalde shooting makes the strongest 2A case the party of gun grabbing has ever accidentally proffered. And it’s glorious! “To suggest that the argument has begun in bad faith is a dazzling, glistening — nay, iridescent! — understatement; everyone on both sides of the gun control issue knows what is afoot, that gun control proponents are seizing on the next bit of agitprop they hope will help their cause and win over those who, because they have no interest in gun culture, are more willing than not to sacrifice rights they’ll most likely never take advantage of. With this understanding — that the argument is being raised to constrain the rights of legal gun owners, while pretending to protect the po-po — I think the anti-gunners make one of their biggest missteps yet.”

SOME IDEOLOGIES ARE HEALTHIER THAN OTHERS: An interesting review of the ‘well-being gap’ between liberals and conservatives.
