OH: I have a Home Warranty. You pay them a monthly premium, then when something breaks, you pay them a flat fee. Then the technician diagnoses the problem, and the company finds a reason why your plan doesn't cover that. Feels like American insurance in a nutshell.

Trump has ordered “a total and complete” blockade of all ‘sanctioned’ oil tankers entering and leaving Venezuela ports,
-- which is technically an act of war.
How seriously should we take this?
Trump has certainly threatened war with Venezuela in the past.
Former US National Security advisor John Bolton reports that Trump said during his first presidential term (2017-2020) that invading Venezuela would be “cool”
because it is “really part of the United States.”<…

Oil residues can travel over 5,000 miles on ocean debris, study finds
When oily plastic and glass, as well as rubber, washed onto Florida beaches in 2020, a community group shared the mystery online, attracting scientists' attention. Working together, they linked the black residue-coated debris to a 2019 oil slick along Brazil's coastline. Using ocean current models and chemical analysis, the team explains in Environmental Science & Technology how some of the oily material managed to travel over 5,200 miles (8,500 kilometers) by clinging to debris.

It was approaching time to renew my Global Entry Membership. One of the questions required for renewal was to list the countries I’ve been to since 2020.
Each country visited had to be selected from a list. The UI was excellent. I could type a substring and the options would be limited to countries containing that substring ✅. I couldn’t find Turkey. Searched Tu, scrolled the unfiltered list no Turkey.

President TACO to announce $12 billion tariff relief for farmers
Farmers nationwide have been grappling with low crop prices and challenging TARIFFS that have pushed many into bankruptcy.
Some 181 farmers filed for bankruptcy protection in the first half of the year,
a 60 percent increase from the previous year
and the highest six-month reading since 2020, according to U.S. court records.

The new assistance package is expected to particularly help soybean farm…

I have owned my 2016 EV since 2020. (I like buying my cars four and a half years old because four years is the length of a typical lease and when supply goes up, price goes down). I like the fact that (because it's an EV), beyond tire rotations, it's only been in the shop once. That one time, was due to the fact that the start button got stuck in and wouldn't come out again. The car is nearing ten years old, and I think that I might need to take it to the shop for new tires. ...

Another reminder about 2020: the Hennepin County atty initially brought softball charges that would have resulted in moderate sentences (because they were weak) and probably wouldn’t have held up in court anyway (because they were mismatched to the crime).
Attorney General Keith Ellison snatched the investigation away from the county and brought real charges that really stuck — and he had the backing to do that because of the sheer volume of protest.

"In 2020, Berlin passed a law that resulted in a five-year rent freeze [...] for 90% of the flats in the city. While the law offered relief to about 1.5 million households who had seen rents rise by an estimated third in the six years prior, it was ruled as unconstitutional in 2021 after Germany’s highest court sided with landlords and property investment lobbyists who had argued it was inappropriate and illegal for the state to meddle with the private market."

On a related note, a reminder of the timeline of 2020:
Things didn’t turn chaotic and violent immediately after the police murdered George Floyd.
Things didn’t turn chaotic and violent when the video became public.
Things didn’t turn chaotic and violent when the protests started.
Things turned chaotic and violent when they brought charges against Chauvin, and the police flipped out and went on a rage-fueled bender of mass tear-gassing the peaceful protests.

China's efforts to slow land degradation and climate change

Between 2001 and 2020, changes in vegetation cover reduced the amount of fresh water available for humans and ecosystems in the eastern monsoon region and northwestern arid region,
which together make up 74% of China's land area, according to a study published Oct. 4 in the jo…

China has planted so many trees it's changed the entire country's water distribution
Huge "regreening" efforts in China over the past few decades have activated the country's water cycle and moved water in ways that scientists are just now starting to understand.

So, Gableman's argument is that if he isn't allowed to pick which judges hear his case, it is a violation of due process? I don't think that is the way the law is meant to work.

It’s lost in the noise now, but I felt very clearly on that first day of real violence in 2020 — and still maintain now — that the Minneapolis Police turned the protests violent to send a signal to the city that charging police with a crime was unacceptable.
“You hurt us? We hurt your city.” That was the message, clear as day. That’s why police instigated and fomented violence. That’s why they stopped firefighters from putting out fires.
Yes, I am still angry.
