Too much LSD?
Might be the best storm so far this season for the Summit County mountains/Eldora/Winter Park. Looks like basically everyone there got a footer, and it's not done yet!

Long S persisted in English writing through the 18th century.
More water today in Denver than the previous 55 days combined. Wettest day in 6+ months. And we're not done yet.

Oh, more statistics abuse.
1. No mention of the margin of error on any of these;
2. You can't compare a survey by Y with a survey by Z - too many differences in methodology;
3. Aggregator surveys are statistical 💩
In addition to common decency. Leaving sailors to drown is outlawed by the Geneva Convention.

I wrote a letter to the editor about not going to war in the Middle East when I was an undergraduate in the 1970s. (Yes, almost half a century ago.) Obviously I did not word it strongly enough.

Maybe try houndstooth.
Mathematicians have to wear blinders and earplugs. Otherwise they might see or hear all the commercials that say their product is 3 times (faster, stronger, whiter) and run out of the room screaming "compared to what?"
The Segwey CEO drove one off a cliff.
Actually winners since SCOTUS just refused to review a string of judgments which upheld the Copyright Office's opinion that AI slop is not copyrightable.
The sky was clear -- remarkably clear -- and the twinkling of all the stars seemed to be but throbs of one body, timed by a common pulse.
