One of the interesting graphs is fred.stlouisfed.org/series/L…
Though the same for men only is also interesting, since much of the long term trend in this graph is women joining the workforce. But that slice (25-54, male) doesn't seem to be on FRED.

There's a local Indian restaurant here that basically does that.
Also, I eat some of the leftover of sauces that come with a Dosa (from a different local Indian restaurant) with leftover chips from a Mexican restaurant. (Only the spicy green sauce and the tamarind one.)

Monarch butterfly caterpillar (Monday)... Monarch butterfly pupa (Thursday).
The plant they were eating (just one!) was almost completely leafless by Tuesday.

When I moved to Nashville 12 years ago, I intended to avoid reporting on stories in my own backyard. I wanted a bit of a buffer.
Then, last year, this story literally came to my own backyard.

I recently remembered economist.com/leaders/2008/0…, which is unusual for a political endorsement from a newspaper: it doesn't name the endorsed candidate until the last sentence of the article:
"Italians should vote for Walter Veltroni, his opponent from the centre-left, instead."

This hawk was sitting right outside my window for 10 or 15 minutes. I felt like it liked the shady spot because of the heat today...

I think Chinese rules about access to green spaces (and sunlight angles?) are also quite harmful for walkability.
(But definitely agree that the urban highways in Shenzhen and Beijing are overbuilt.)

(That $35 backpack was from a reputable brand... and in particular was amazon.com/gp/product/B014HL… .)
I'm firmly in the "no" camp, although I did find the $35 backpack I bought in 2016 lasted ≥5x longer than the $30 one I bought the year before.
(I paid quite a bit more for one for multi-day backpacking trips, though, but that doesn't sound like the topic here.)

They should be talking more about how inflation in goods prices is an obvious result of supply chain shortages and a shift in relative preferences between goods and services, and how a bunch of other inflation is clearly coming from the Russian invasion of Ukraine...

At least the law doesn't specify how many mL/hour the pump needs to provide.

Transferring between Beijing lines 2 and 13 and Xizhimen (西直门) struck me as one of the longest subway transfers I've ever had to do. It is an unusual case, though, but it's probably the Beijing subway transfer that I used the most times.
