There's a famous series of studies from the 1970s about this. Basically, rats stuck alone in metal cages with access to unlimited morphine will consume a hell of a lot more drugs than those in "Rat Parks" with other rats and

The bull case is that GME's own online revenue is trending up and that they're well positioned to grow more. I personally don't buy it, particularly at $300 a share, but GME is not entirely bricks & mortar.

I'm sure there are exceptions, but I'm talking about most . If there's a country/region with commonly eaten vegetables/greens that fall outside the article's listings, I'd be keen to hear about it.

I suspect most greens eaten worldwide fall within the same taxa as those described in the article. For example, the Chinese eat a vast variety of cabbage/mustardy plants, but botanically they're all Brassica rapa .

In Chinese socialism is shè huì zhǔ yì , which had to be intentionally misromanized as шэхуэйчжуи to avoid dick jokes.

Tax information isn't that harmful, many Nordic countries release it as a public service. This appears to be a new leak of Experian's Brazilian database, which contains basically everything about everybody.

11% of the EV market share, not the total market. Still impressive enough given that the Chinese EV market is extremely competitive and fragmented, but a long way from mass adoption.

Bit of an aside, but it's odd how convention forces the journal to pretend the patient is anonymous ("a 44-year-old man") despite all the other details making it blatantly obviously that it's Navalny. Of course, from a
