Disgrace..
CNN commentator Scott Jennings said President Biden is leaving office in “disgrace.”
Cannabis..
Among cannabis users, neither age of initiation of cannabis use nor frequent use was significant.
Researchers at the Univerity of Copenhagen studied about the relationship between cannabis use and age-related cognitive decline.
The findings pointed out that there are no significant harmful effects of cannabis use on age-related cognitive decline. This is quite contrary to what was believed.
Meanwhile, a recent study found that low doses of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main active ingredient in cannabis, showed to reverse conventional signs of brain aging in mice.
Just a thought.
Prayers..
Vegan ..
According to many, “A vegan diet that’s full of fruits and veggies has helped many people achieve their goal of losing extra pounds and maintaining a healthy weight.
Vegans have a cancer rate that is only 40 percent that of meat-eaters.
In addition to heart disease and type 2 diabetes, studies suggest that vegans have a reduced risk of developing certain cancers, particularly those of the colon and breast.
This is partly due to the high intake of antioxidants, vitamins, and phytochemicals found in plant-based foods, which help protect the body from oxidative stress and inflammation, both of which are linked to cancer development.
Finally, eating veggies not only keeps you healthier, but it’s also easy on your pocket too! plant-based staples—like beans, rice, pasta, and tofu—are much cheaper as compared to the prices of animal flesh. Just a "Vegan" thought.
Epic proportion..
Throughout the 2024 presidential race, many media pundits and commentators ran to Biden’s defense when there was speculation about his mental decline, including after Special Counsel Robert Hur's report about him being well-meaning but forgetful , viral videos of him looking confused, and a Wall Street Journal report about his faltering behind-the-scenes demeanor.
After Biden's poor debate performance against Donald Trump in June, pressure on him to drop out of the White House race grew so strong that he quit weeks later, despite pledging he was staying in the fight.
A legacy to be proud of.

Corrupt..
“My loyalty does not go past if someone does something wrong …
In the aftermath of Adams’ indictment on bribery and corruption charges, the mayor’s top advisors and closest allies, from his schools chancellor to his police commissioner , were pushed to resign.
Gov. Hochul leaned on Adams to clean house of those in his inner circle who’d become ensnared in several separate corruption probes, even as they didn’t face criminal charges of their own and maintained they had done nothing wrong.
Now, as the mayor continues to fend off calls to resign, battles the federal charges he has pleaded not guilty to and runs for reelection, almost no one from the tight-knit crew he first entered office with — known internally as “Team Adams” — is left by his side.
How much corruption is there and for how long?
Sanctions..
Russia's/Ukraine war placed a further squeeze on critical commodities – food and energy. This was the result of reduced output from both countries during the fighting. The United Stated and Europe's sanctions on Russia's oil and other sections cause food shortage world wide, and Inflation in USA, Europe and the rest of the world. Costs climbed even further, triggering inflation rates that far outpace wage growth.
