Today we discuss the reasons not to stay in your lane, wildlife in the Pacific Northwest, and whether Americans want a handout, or to be left alone. First: Bret responds to critique from Geert Vanden Bossche on his characterization of intramuscular vaccines and their capacity to produce mucosal immunity. Then: how science discovers reality, the risks of reductionism, and a hypothesis that generalists are more immune to corruption than specialists. Then: bald eagles and foxes compete to scavenge seal meat on the shores of the Salish Sea. Meanwhile in Canada, people are told they can’t go into the woods. Finally: young, and urban, Americans are more likely than older, or rural Americans, to want a handout from the federal government.

@DarkhorsePod Do you mind if I shove something under your noses? It's surprising to me in its connections to H&G: https://philpapers.org/rec/FISCAP-12.
I'm just a lowly undergrad, out of school for a while, but I think this is . . . closer than what I'm hearing from the rest of the academic world (which is just posturing and ignoring everywhere).
Bret mentioned the lack of emphasis on deportations of illegal Chinese immigrants. The number mentioned is small but it is evidence that ICE is starting to work on that issue. Hopefully, the number will increase.
