It takes much longer than a year: A Year After the Toxic Train Derailment, Is East Palestine Safe? Good news that this was discovered: Top Harvard cancer researchers accused of scientific fraud; 37 studies affected. A fascinating case: The puzzling case of a baby who wouldn’t stop crying—then began to slip away. I'm not sure what hasn't been recalled at this point: Robitussin cough syrups recalled in the US due to microbial contamination. This is an absolutely phenomenal read: What happens when an astronaut in orbit says he’s not coming back? Some of these numbers seem exaggerated, but it's a valid concern: New tires every 7,000 miles?

From Wally, a lengthy read on Worldcon and what went wrong: Worldcon in the news. Another, lengthy, thoughtful read: Tools for Thinking About Censorship. It's inevitable that this will go wrong: This cruise ship can carry nearly 10,000 people. Here’s more of what sets Icon of the Seas apart. This is wonderful: Forest Noises
