True, but the population in industrialized societies have become less and less healthy at the same time. We have Ozempic, but we also have 30% of Americans with prediabetes.

Leaded gas is still used in small airplanes with internal combustion engines. If you live near a General Aviation airport you are being showered in lead so some rich guy can play pilot.

It’s similar to numbers I’ve seen for adults previously. 70% of adults are obese or overweight. This is who are setting the norms for children. I basically never see young people outside (I run and walk a lot). I see kids waiting for the school bus in the morning, and half of them are sitting in their parents cars. They get driven down the fucking street and can’t be bothered to stand for 5 minutes.

They knew you could, but mostly didn’t because it takes a ton of energy to boil off water. There was no petroleum, no coal, so you would need a bunch of wood. So you use a bunch of wood to boil a liter of ocean water and you would get about 35 grams of salt. It just wasn’t worth it.

Bill Barr’s father got Epstein hired at some elite private NYC high school as a math teacher. Epstein didn’t even have a degree. Bill Barr was the Attorney General when Epstein died, and visited the jail like the day before.
