Two days ago a story showed up in the New York Post, AOL, Yahoo, The Indiana Gazette, Reddit, and a dozen more media outlets announcing that 38% of American workers never felt more uninspired at work.

We have reached a dire moment. At 2 am Sunday morning, March 14, Iran launched a swarm of between 300 and 350 suicide drones, ballistic missiles, and cruise missiles at Israel. Israel’s Stunner missiles, Arrow missiles, and Iron Dome missiles, with help from the French and Americans, knocked 99% of these weapons out of the sky. The missile barrage was Iran’s revenge for an Israeli bombing of an Iranian embassy compound in Damascus, Syria, in April that killed five Iranian military officers and two Iranian generals. Those generals were leading an Iranian war against Israel, a proxy war in which Iran’s puppet…

One week, she was checking on hibernating queen bees kept in a soil-filled tube “hibernacle” in the fridge when she realised that moisture had flooded the tube and plunged four of the insects underwater. “I kind of freaked out,”…
