Incredible finding from @jmhorp @CatoInstitute: For the 10 metro areas most affected by the "China shock," ALL of them have higher real wages today, at every income level, than they did in 2001, and 6/10 have grown faster than the national average. New from me @NRO…
All the doom, gloom, and gore in Black Sabbath/metal lyrics reminds people of their mortality. Christians should be much more suspect of happy pop music that tries to make you forget that you’re going to die.

Black Sabbath, live at Madison Square Garden in 2016 on the band’s final world tour. I was lucky to be there. Thanks for the music, Ozzy. RIP.
In honor of Ozzy’s passing, please enjoy my favorite scene of any documentary ever 🖤

He actually won $1 million, but the error makes this headline incredibly funny

Colbert slowed the natural aging of his viewers by two years and they’re firing him???
When Colbert took over for David Letterman in 2015, the average viewer was 60 years old. CBS hoped that Colbert would attract younger viewers Ten years later, Colbert’s average viewer is **68 years old** That’s simply unsustainable as a business model
