The Coronavirus Will Change How We Work Forever

The first few days were great. No need to put together an outfit, no reason to comb your hair or even look in the mirror. No commute! But unlike many things in life, working from home does not always get better with experience. Life on lockdown isn’t what you wanted, after all—and it may be what “office life” will be like from now on. The coronavirus pandemic has utterly disrupted the way millions of us work, and while the public health emergency will someday dissipate, some aspects of the Work From Home Revolution are likely here to stay....

The Biden Administration Is Failing On Its Top Priority Climate Opinion

The Biden administration trumpeted itself as the greenest in history, and declared climate to be its driving strategic priority in everything from national security to energy policy. Yet in Biden’s first year in office, the energy crisis in Europe and supply-chain problems at home have spiked global carbon emissions to unprecedented levels, while the White House shuns practical solutions simply because they involve natural gas. On January 27, climate envoy John Kerry held a virtual summit of the world’s largest polluters to harangue them about their lack of progress towards the lofty goals set at the UN’s recent COP26 Glasgow meeting....

Winner: Drew McIntyre Drew McIntyre had a really good match with Akira Tozawa, then he called out Randy Orton, who got a beating from The OC afterward. The question is whether this leads to anything bigger. We’ve seen Drew McIntyre in big spots before, only to fall off the radar again. Will the same pattern repeat this time?
