Insight from a great author

Student debt in the U.S. now stands at about $1.5 trillion. It's a number we often call a crisis, advising students to avoid borrowing if they possibly can.

Thanks for the instance. It is one of the nicest I've seen. And it may well be the most interesting local feed as well.

One small (and I think easy) suggestion I have is to change your favicon to be something a little different from the other instances. Maybe something orbiting the M like a planet or electron or something? That would just make it easier to click the right icon on my shelf and to find the correct tab when you are watching other instances simultaneously.

I couldn't help myself.

We are seeing more "mega fires" because of climate change and poor forest management. You have to scroll to the bottom to see the mention that "80-90% of these forests are full of fuels that drive high intensity fires. But people who moved into those areas don't want controlled burns - too smoky - or remove the fuels by other means. But let's blame the thing that we can't control (at a local level) instead of fixing the (local) fuel problem.
