A tentative deal to end the Iran war makes it reasonable to ask how soon prices will drop for gasoline, groceries, airline tickets and other items that got more expensive during the conflict. Not so fast, experts say. Even after oil starts flowing again from the Middle East, it could take awhile for consumers to see a difference at local fuel pumps, supermarkets and other places they shop, according to economists and industry analysts. Fighting over the Strait of Hormuz disrupted not only supplies of crude and refined fuel but also the supply chains for fertilizer, food and even footwear. Businesses expect higher costs to linger, which means their customers might need to prepare for that too. “It is not clear, despite three months of war, that anything has been achieved that makes the American consumer better off,” Brett House, an economist who teaches at Columbia Business School, said. “In fact, by almost any measure, not just the American consumer, but the world, is worse off as a result of this attack.”

A Russian warship fired warning shots across the bow of a British yacht Tuesday, sparking an investigation by the U.K.’s Defense Ministry. The commanding officer of the Admiral Grigorovich took the decision because the Bright Future was “proceeding under engine power on a dangerous collision course toward the warship,” in the English Channel, Russia’s defense ministry said in a statement. Several attempts to make radio contact had failed and when the yacht did not respond, the statement said that “signal flares were fired and sound signals were issued,” in an attempt to attract the Bright Future’s attention. But when the yacht still didn’t change course and the distance between the two vessels had closed to less than 500 ft, the commanding officer “decided to fire warning shots from small arms” across the course of the Bright Future which started to move away, the statement added. Britain’s defense ministry said in a statement it was looking into the reports of an incident in the English Channel, the body of water separating Britain and France. A British official familiar with the incident said the reports allege that a Russian navy vessel fired warning shots roughly 500 yards away from a U.K.-registered yacht. They added that the incident was understood to have taken place outside U.K. territorial waters, around 20 nautical miles south of the Isle of Wight, a small island off England’s south coast.

Sincerely, truly, from the bottom of my heart- as someone who isn't physically disabled but hears this shit all the time- fuck off

Here's a link to an article about the study from the Stanford Report: link.

Musk has done other terrible things, too, but god, this one has a high and increasing body count. It should define his legacy. Every article about his wealth should mention how he not only refuses to use any of it to help people, but he actively cut money that wasn’t even his from providing food and medicine to the poor. But nope. No one cares.

"This should have been an opportunity to show the world that global sports, public art, and environmental stewardship can stand together," he said. "Instead, a landmark was painted over. We want to do our part to make sure that what happened here does not become the standard for how public art is treated in cities across America."

Maybe I’m being too harsh. I guess if you want to see some art you can just go to the mall.
