  • I feel like this is over hyped primarily because we saw Bidens downfall live on tv. That’s a rare kind of event. Also, the electorate is largely talking past one another when it comes to what they are looking for in a candidate, so it’s not clear what this offers to either candidate other than maybe a chance for them to get their opponent to make a mistake on live television (we beat Medicare).

    In all likelihood, it’s a nothing burger of an event, but mainstream news loves a horse race. However I’d it isn’t a nothing burger, it might be the end of the road for one of the two candidates.










  • Sea walls and flood control are the very reason the sand is going away. And there are a shit ton of them, largely illegal. People buy 2 million dollar beach home and want to protect it, so they build a sea wall. people want to build in flat coastal plains because it’s easy and flat, but it’s flat because it’s the result of deposition via sheet flooding. You build flood control so that people’s land doesn’t flood every year, this speeds up the water, and the sand goes out to sea as a result.

    Sea walls, flood control, and weak permissive governments that allow the wealthy to break laws are the principal cause of sand loss.
