George W. Bush had 9/11. Barack Obama had the Great Recession.
Let's be clear - George W also had the Great Recession, Obama was handed the clean-up.

Is recycling beyond fixing? Here’s why California thinks so.
This is a socially irresponsible headline - recycling is not broken, plastic recycling is. The impression this headline leaves will justify tons of waste that otherwise could have been recycled.

Hi @CNN - this is so inappropriate. Thanks.

Rawdogging flights: as bad an idea as it sounds?
This is the most puritanical generation - it seems - since the puritans. This reaction, though seemingly independent, is still just a re-action.

30 years ago, Paula Jones and O.J. Simpson changed America’s culture. We’re still living in the aftermath.
Wrong - Jerry Springer and the fake American Rupert Murdoch's Fox News fed the freak show - fear-tainment axis.

Nigel Farage has said the West "provoked" Russia's invasion of Ukraine by expanding the European Union and Nato military alliance eastwards.

A September 2022 study predicts that clear-air turbulence will increase significantly around the globe by the period 2050-2080, in particular along the busiest flight routes, and the strongest type of turbulence will increase the most.
Jeez, what could be the underlying reason for these changes? Hmm...

But one reason it worked was a lack of critical thinking by too many in that generation — the result of a campus culture that has become way too much about what to think and not how to think.
I can't speak to campus culture, but I do agree that in general the polarization that is the result of social media and those whose interests are power has led to a general decline in "how to think" skills.

“We’re starting to see the world in terms of red and blue, and we’re teaching law students to view it [that way].”
If this were true, they would have surely reached out to other federal judges who were appointed by Dems in an aim to build a bipartisan effort.
Did they?

Possible solutions for closing that financing gap include the politically treacherous choices of raising the payroll tax, cutting benefits, a combination of those two, or taking on more public debt to prop up the system.
What's funny is that the choices are always given such that it seems that every day people will either pay more or have benefits cut - when there is the choice of getting rid of the salary cap on the tax and have those earning 200k, 500k, 2 million a year pay more.

just as when the solar panel manufacturer Solyndra filed for bankruptcy in 2011
The Washington Post participates in the maintenance of Republican talking points. Imagine if venture capitalists decided to invest in nothing because they lost money in one incubator effort. What the article doesn't explain is that multiple different efforts were funded through this Obama program, including Tesla. But the partisan narrative maintained here will only point out a failure, highlight that, and maintain that message. The Washington Post does a disservice in this lazy attempt at balance.

Hankey
Mr. Hankey https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Hankey,_the_Christmas_Poo
The Mr. Hankey character was based on an idea Trey Parker's father created when he was toilet-training Trey as a child. Parker said he refused to flush the toilet as a child, so his father told him if he did not flush down his stool, which he called "Mr. Hankey", it would come to life and kill him.

"It may seem counterintuitive that the human brain is so susceptible to the opinions of others that it is willing to disregard its own visual inputs, but viewed from a statistical perspective, this biological capitulation makes perfect sense." – Gregory Berns in the book "Iconoclast"
