So, in a new NYT essay about May 13, 1986 (the day she was born), Lena Dunham suggests that, back then, nobody in Canada or the US knew or cared much about acid rain. I hate to get in the way of a good generational shaming, but she’s just…er, totally wrong?

"Conservative Cuban Americans have long made S. Florida GOP-friendly. But Trump has deported a record number of Cubans. Older Cubans who lived in the US for decades were deported to Mexico, where they've struggled to get by. Some have been deported to Africa..." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...
