    Couple lives permanently on cruise ships because it's cheaper than housing
    https://katu.com/news/nation-world/couple-lives-permanently-on-cruise-ships-because-its-cheaper-than-housing-angelyn-burk-richard-burk-seattle-australia-mortgage-retirement-plans-vacation-travel-escape-retire-living-on-a-boat
    WASHINGTON (TND) — A Seattle couple has lived aboard cruise ships for the past year after determining it's cheaper than a mortgage — and they have no plans to return to living on land. Angelyn and Richard Burk — both in their 50s — have always dreamed of retiring to a life of travel, according to 7 News in Australia. The couple had been going on a cruise around the world at least once, sometimes twice each year.

    Monopolies and the Baby Formula Shortage
    https://prospect.org/blogs-and-newsletters/tap/monopolies-and-the-baby-formula-shortage/
    Four companies sell almost all baby formula in the U.S., magnifying supply shocks that cause families to scramble. Families are desperately hunting around drugstores and groceries for baby formula amid a nationwide shortage. Analyst Datasembly indicates that 40 percent of leading baby formula products were out of stock in late April. Yes, that refers to all sizes of the same product (it’s 40 percent of the SKU numbers, not 40 percent of all formula), but the problem shouldn’t really be minimized: Businesses are rationing and parents are scrambling, even if switching brands doesn’t typically carry any health consequences (though that isn’t always the case). Why is this happening, exactly? Well, there was a large recall of Similac, one of the major brands, in February. But I am having a hard time with the alibi of another large brand, Enfamil, which has claimed an “18 percent surge in demand for baby formula nationwide.” Was there a large influx of babies that I’m not aware of? Have they all gotten hungrier? Contrary to myth, the pandemic and the forced lockdowns did not lead to a baby boom; in fact, they led to a baby bust. U.S. births declined in the first half of 2021, the last point for which we have data. Even if there was an uptick later, it’s extremely unlikely to see an 18 percent surge.

    Biden Disinformation Chief Nina Jankowicz Sang About Sex Fantasy with Dead Harry Potter
    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/04/29/biden-disinformation-chief-nina-jankowicz-sang-sex-fantasy-dead-harry-potter/
    President Biden's disinformation chief Nina Jankowicz sang about dead child sex with fictional character Harry Potter. This story is very stupid on all levels and the source is terrible, but I am posting it because it dredged up a memory where I realized that I SAW HER PERFORM LIVE ONCE AND THEY PROBABLY SANG THIS SONG ABOUT WANTING TO HAVE SEX WITH A DEAD HARRY POTTER oh god oh god oh god

    Banana: After 50 years the ultimate Warhol Velvet Underground mystery is finally (almost) solved!!
    https://dangerousminds.net/comments/banana_after_50_years_the_ultimate_warhol_velvet_underground_mystery_is_fin
    I awoke this morning to the extremely sad news that our friend Howie Pyro had passed. The rocker, cultural historian, DJ, founding member of D-Generation, bass player in Danzig, and frequent Dangerous Minds contributor, had a liver transplant last year, but then sadly caught COVID just when everything seemed like it was on a (TBH very unexpected) upswing in his health. I was just thinking about him yesterday and made a mental note to write and wish him well. Then this. Although I don’t think anyone would have mistaken Howie for an angel—he wouldn’t have needed a liver transplant if he had been—everyone who knew him loved him, because he was just such a sweet man. Not that many people can be said to have been universally loved in their time, but I think it’s true of Howie. The first word that comes to mind to describe him is sweet....
