I don't want to be forever young, but I'd love to feel like I'm in my 20s until I'm 100.

I came across this, which shows the actual trend line for hurricanes including those that did not make landfall - https://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/historical-atlantic-hurricane-and-tropical-storm-records/
I was under the impression that the number of hurricanes that made landfall had been increasing in recent decades, but the bottom chart suggests it’s about constant. Maybe it’s just the total number of storms then?
I don’t get this meme. I don’t see Saddam and it doesn’t look like loss?
Air. Can’t go more than a minute or two without it, and there’s enough to share!
If property values in high-risk areas start declining I wonder if there would ever be class action suits against the government or specific bad actors.
Lucky, you get 4 seasons!? Here in South Florida we get "holy fuck it's so hot!" with hurricanes, and "oh, this is kinda nice" with hurricanes.
How the fuck is this still a tight race? I just for the life of me cannot understand (I mean, I can, but... I just can't).
THE COMMON COLD
(well... just the coronavirus variants that cause it about 50% of the time, no word yet on a norovirus vaccine - https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/moderna-sets-sights-common-cold-triple-attack-against-respiratory-diseases)
I try to be a "silver lining" type of guy whenever possible, and a recent example that I've been using is mRNA vaccines. They were advancing achingly slowly before CoVID-19 basically turned the whole world into an mRNA lab. Now, thanks to that, there are vaccine trials underway for seasonal influenza, Epstein–Barr virus, HIV, RSV and several types of cancer. There's even talk of a bona fide cure for the common cold.
Shocked that Florida made it to double digits.
