…has saved money. A history of how it happened, including an idiotic quote from Scott Horowitz, who I consider to be corrupt. The IG should have never allowed that revolving door. It was an obvious conflict of interest.

One small step for space law. This is a pretty good overview of the legal situation.
…is no longer constitutionally justified.
Much of it never was, particularly given the capriciousness with which many took action.
Greg Gutfeld repeatedly makes the point that the people who claim that we can’t make choices between health and the economy are acting like children. Kevin Williamson takes the kids to task, including AOC.
Some good ideas about how to reform colleges and universities going forward. It’s a shame that it took all this economic destruction to make it happen, but it will be a good outcome.
How the lock downs are in the tradition of Civil War surgeons.

Bob Zubrin has a different idea.
Elon chose methane because he was thinking Mars, but absent finding significant deposits of lunar carbon, LOX/Hydrogen is probably a better propellant for lunar ops.
The current conventional wisdom is that they’re hurting because of the ban on “elective” procedures, but it turns out that most admissions are caused by the entertainment industry (restaurants and bars). Shut down all the purveyors of alcohol and food poisoning, and the beds are empty.
Patricia cut my hair last weekend with a Wahl electric clipper that I’d bought for ten bucks at Ross years ago, but we’d never used. She overdid it, and I look like I’m ready for boot camp, but she’d probably do better with practice and learning how to use it. I’ve heard Jesse Watters describe how his wife had learned to cook, and now I’m wondering how many of us will go back to paying other people to cut our hair and cook for us, now that we’ve figured out we can actually do it ourselves? Of course, I’ve never been a big restaurant goer, for reasons I’ve discussed several times here: the cost, and the nutrition. I’ve probably been affected by this as little as anyone.
How it’s coming along. There’s nothing funny about the cost, though.
