He seemed to believe a windowless shower in a windowless bathroom offered his best chance of surviving the shrieking terror that was raining down from the night sky outside. Did he think the fireworks, with their window-rattling booms, were the work of some cosmic predator big enough to eat him whole? Did he think they were gunshots, or claps of thunder spreading out from inexplicable lightning bolts tearing open the sky above our house? We have friends whose terrified dog spent one Fourth of July fruitlessly trying to outrun the explosions. Other friends came home from watching the fireworks to discover that their own dog had bolted in terror from their fenced backyard and been killed by a car.

Birds fly outside the U.S. Supreme Court on the day justices issue orders in pending appeals in Washington, U.S., June 24, 2024. Republican lawmakers and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce praised the Supreme Court decision Friday overturning the so-called Chevron Doctrine, which for four decades led judges to defer to how federal agencies interpreted a law when its language was not clear. GOP lawmakers said the 6-3 decision by the Supreme Court undid a precedent that they argued had unjustly strengthened the power of unelected government officials. "After forty years of Chevron deference, the Supreme Court made it clear today that our system of government leaves no room for an unelected bureaucracy to co-opt this authority for itself," McConnell said. "It's a huge blow to the administrative state in Washington, D.C. No one elects bureaucrats to make these decisions," Cotton said of the decision, which overturned the Supreme Court's ruling in 1984 in a case known as Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council.

In the 1960s, there were six people of working age for every retired person, according to the World Economic Forum. “What you’re seeing is increased spending on programs like Medicare and Social Security as the baby boomers are aging into those programs. And then of course, fewer workers relative to the number of people who are receiving Social Security and Medicare benefits,” said Dahl. Social Security payments still provide about 90% of income for more than a quarter of older adults in the United States, according to Social Security Agency surveys. But without intervention, the Social Security trust fund will be depleted by the mid-2030s, meaning that only a portion of retirees’ expected benefits will be paid out.

For the first time, egg freezing was an option for younger women worried about their reproductive future. But that also comes with a cost — and Carney doesn't plan to do another round. Other studies have found that there isn't much added benefit to freezing eggs earlier than 30. Fertility clinics have an obvious business case for trying to convince as many people as possible that egg freezing is something they should do.
