Electing America to Become Sane Again by Psychologically Processing COVID
But psychiatry is known for appreciating that often the past needs to be better processed so that we can move on more psychologically unencumbered to the future. To be sure, the pandemic in its severity is no longer present, although less severe variants are. It overlapped the end of past President Trump’s administration, and our government’s response was late, apparently causing more unnecessary deaths despite the rapid development of vaccines. As past President Clinton successfully said during his initial presidential run: “it’s the economy, stupid?” Maybe it still is. Knoll C, Diaz E, Mayorquín O, Goldstein D. Behind the election anger may be something else: lingering Covid anger.

Russia suspected of plot to send incendiary devices on planes: Sources
Russia schemed to send incendiary devices, shipped through a commercial carrier on planes that would potentially end up in the United States, according to sources familiar with the situation. "The group's goal was also to test the transfer channel for such parcels, which were ultimately to be sent to the United States of America and Canada," according to the statement. But devices don't always work properly and the risks to commercial and civilian aviation are serious when incendiary devices are enabled and shipped. "We greatly appreciate the cooperation and collaboration with industry as together we work to ensure the safety and security of air cargo."

1 In 3 Parents Regret Skipping ‘The Talk’ – Here’s How To Speak To Your Child About Porn
UnsplashNew data from the MakeLoveNotPorn Academy has revealed that parents are concerned about their children’s access to porn online. De Souza urged following the report: “We urgently need to do more to protect children from the harms of online pornography. Snapchat was recently sued as a result of its design features facilitating the sharing of child sexual exploitation material. However, we cannot rely solely on teachers or regulation on social media companies to do this.”AdvertisementThe Child Mind Institute offers resources on speaking to children about porn and said on their website: “Let [your children] know that porn is acting. You won’t see those conversations in porn, but they’re still important.”They added: “We’re not telling parents to authorise watching porn, any more than talking about drinking is giving them permission to drink.”

The Story Behind The Song Macarena Is So Much More Outrageous Than You’d Think
Los Del Rio in the iconic Macarena music video. Sony BMG Music EntertainmentIf you are old enough to remember the ′90s, you’ll remember the absolute chokehold that Los Del Rio’s hit Macarena had on our airwaves, school discos and even pubs. As soon as those opening beats hit, everything was duly dropped so that we could get in line and mimic the dance moves from the music video. AdvertisementHowever, now that I know what the song is actually about, I think that my childhood self was strutting her stuff to some seriously dodgy lyrics. While it may just seem like a silly pop song, it’s a tale of a dying relationship, and the ways in which a woman, named Macarena, copes with it.

The US Votes for Its Next President
The US Votes for Its Next PresidentToday people across the United States are voting to elect their next president. If Ms. Harris wins, she will become the first female president of the US. If Mr. Trump wins, he will be the first president in over 125 years to win two terms that weren’t in a row. In this system, each state gets a certain number of “electoral votes”. Normally when a candidate wins the most votes (of people) in a state, the state’s electoral votes go to that candidate.

Uber’s real threat isn’t from robots
And then came Uber’s own third-quarter report last week, which included disappointing growth in its gross bookings and a projection for a further slowdown in the fourth quarter. “There’s always a wall of worry," wrote Bernstein analyst Nikhil Devnani in a report on Uber after last week’s results. Wall Street isn’t panicking, though; 85% of analysts covering the stock rate Uber as a “buy," according to FactSet. Meanwhile, Uber’s new partner Waymo keeps gaining traction. Uber and Waymo will launch their first joint service in the Atlanta and Austin, Texas, markets next year.

After billions spent and hundreds of events, a divided nation decides
Political observers say a winner may not be apparent on Election Day, if the race is as tight as polls project. View Full Image The final polls showed Kamala Harris and Donald Trump locked in a close race across seven battleground states. Trump’s campaign has signaled confidence, pointing to polling that it says suggests their candidate is better positioned ahead of Election Day than before his 2016 or 2020 bids. The Harris campaign emphasized the scale of their get-out-the-vote effort, a larger and more professional operation than Trump’s, which is largely being handled by outside groups. Throughout his comeback campaign, Trump has emphasized illegal immigration and has proposed an economic policy focused on boosting tariffs to extract leverage on other nations in trade and foreign policy.

Editorial: The Washington Post's non-endorsement reveals journalism's true threat
On Oct. 25, The Washington Post announced that it would not be endorsing a presidential candidate in the 2024 general election. Bezos published a column in The Post to explain himself days later. Our objection lies in the fact that The Post's Opinion editors or editorial board members did not make this decision — the multi-billionaire at the helm of the ship did. Private capitalist and journalistic interests cannot coexist ethically at such a national organization as The Washington Post. As an influential voice in American politics, voters look to editorial boards like The Washington Post's to make informed judgments during high-stakes elections.

Huffpost: Farmers Are Like America's Insurance Policy — Consider That When You Vote
Stefanie Smallhouse, president of Arizona Farm Bureau, recently explained to HuffPost why it's crucial to consider farmers when you vote, especially if you care about inflation. "Dairy farmers are operating within very slim margins. The last one was passed in 2018, and there has already been an extension on it, so an updated Farm Bill hasn’t been passed yet. Why is the Farm Bill important, and why is it important that it’s updated? The Farm Bill is meant to be a living document that includes an extensive package of programs to help rural America and America’s farmers and ranchers.
