I'm seeing a lot of references to the canary in a coal mine about multiple issues, but the metaphor really falls apart when there are 500 dead canaries. We aren't being warned of danger. We're already in it.

The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

It's sunny out. Cheerful-looking. Do I a) do outdoor chores, b) play spooky video games it would be untenable to play at night, or c) option b but with constant guilt about not doing option a.

Do you ever wonder how to keep your fat healthy? Like. Not your size. I mean the organ in your body that is literally fat. What does it need to function at its best? Are there things that are harmful to it? Really don't know how to find that out. Would also REALLY like to know.
