Polio is circulating in NYC. New York City health officials said that the virus was detected in the city’s sewage system, which implies that it’s circulating in the local area. They urged people who aren’t yet vaccinated against the virus—which can cause permanent paralysis of the limbs and in some cases, death—to get their shots. The discovery of polio in NYC comes after the first identified polio case in the US in years: an unvaccinated adult in Rockland County, NY, last month.

But the phenomenon isn't just tied to politics: we're listening to older music, and watching older actors—in movies that are mostly revisions to existing franchises From 2005 to 2019, the average age of CEOs at hire rose fourteen years.

the US Senate is the oldest it's ever been, the speaker of the House is 82, the party leaders in the Senate are 71 and 80, and the Presidency is held by someone who won at age 77, running against a 74-year-old.

A FB post saying: You “volunteer” for us, and we give you chicken as compensation. But because this is a fast-food restaurant and not Burning Man, the store was criticized for apparently ignoring a federal law that outlines how employees should be paid for their time spent working. The post has been removed and Chick-fil-A corporate said the location “decided to end this program.”

The European Commission has urged countries to lower their reliance on Russian natural gas to 15% in case of a drastic Putin pullback as retaliation for Western sanctions. Russian state-run energy company Gazprom already limited the flow through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline to 20% of capacity this week, citing “technical difficulties” (the EU doesn’t buy it). And Germany is especially nervous since it relied on Russia for 55% of its natural gas needs prior to the Ukraine invasion—and about 50% of all homes in Germany are heated with gas.

Hanover, Germany, is trying out cold showers. It’s part of an all-out effort to conserve depleted energy supplies ahead of the winter. On Wednesday, the city of more than 500,000 people became the first major European metro area to turn off hot water in public buildings in a bid to stave off an energy crisis. But it’s also going further than that: Hanover is cutting hot water to swimming pools, letting public fountains run dry, and turning off exterior lights for museums and other public buildings.

When The Jetsons debuted in 1962, George was 40 years old. Given that the show was set 100 years in the future, one can extrapolate that George was born in 2022, and, according to Warner Bros. Wiki, his exact birthdate is July 31. The implications are pretty staggering.

the impact has been unequal across the country, reflecting broader demographic changes. Coffee shops in Florida and New York are struggling the most to recover sales. Meanwhile, sales volume in California, Texas, and North Carolina is higher now than it was before the pandemic. All three states have increased their populations since 2020.

WFH has wiped out a third of all office real estate value in NYC, about $58 billion worth, according to a working paper from the Social Science Research Network. Coffee shop sales have topped off at about 75% of their pre-pandemic levels, according to new research from Bank of America. 2.5 years after the pandemic shut down offices nationwide, employees are still spending about a third of their paid work time at home, per the recent Survey of Working Arrangements and Attitudes.
