Some stuff I need to look at further:

Neuroskeptic: Can Science Work Without Trust? Personally, I'd rather that the trust within science can continue, but we know of those who think it supremely important to end all that. So we're going to need a backup plan.

Ta-Nehisi Coates gives us "Reparations for Ferguson". In which we see once more that the past isn't even past yet. I see more evidence for the arguments of some - including David Brin - that the First American Civil War still isn't over yet, despite the events of 1865.

Now here's one I wasn't expecting to see, from Jonathan Kay, on the subject of the stresses on the lives of retail and hospitality workers. I've known they exist for some time, but wasn't expecting this reaction from Mr. Kay.

More later...
