Absolutely, this study from Berkeley from 2014 said beef should be $30 / lb, without subsidies. Inflation-adjusted (with caveats), it’d be ~$40 / lb today.

That’s a delightful response to my snarky comment, thank you.
I agree, the incentive structure is such that it undermines the goals of journalism. Compounded with a firehose of misinformation, even full-time journalists must be overwhelmed.
I’m unwilling to give them a pass, however. Their job is to report accurately, they understand the risk of reporting things that are not fully vetted, and choose to anyway. As you say, they’re complicit.
Surely you’re not accusing the media of any malfeasance!
The number of people who believe in homeopathy after it’s explained to them is TOO DAMN HIGH.
Are you saying I just made 5 new best friends??

Can we get some sort of content warning here?
Surely the ketamine helps.

As recently as the 1990s, 90% of the USA was Christian. So, good question.
That’s a lot of boxes ticked, USA. The elections may not be fraudulent, but they sure aren’t fair, either.
Weren’t court jesters known for their wit? She’d definitely overstep and end in the dungeons, in that scenario.
As long as you can profit from new data, data scarcity will never end.
This is why I always try “Jenny’s Number” for loyalty programs when I can enter an phone number (Local area code +8675309). A Safeway near me used to offer fuel points with grocery purchases up to $1 discount per gallon. I saved a lot of money in gas for a while, then it seemed Safeway got wise and deactivated those numbers.
“Snitches get <wounds that will require> stitches” Doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.
