Beyond what the article mentions (more people opting for retirement communities/assisted living/nursing homes), changing dating trends, better physical health for seniors, increasing divorce rates, etc., Id doubt there are that many other factors.

Did you have a rebuttal to the specific claims in this article, like chlamydia (plus gonorrhea, syphilis) tripling among seniors in the past decade? It certainly sounds like it’s increasing to me, but I’m not an expert on this

Or, y’know, that Iran (along with a couple others, like Syria) is a primary funder of Hezbollah. Could also be that

At times, I find “unbiased” sources painful in how they pull their punches. It can be refreshing to me to find sources that are willing to write to their audience.

FWIW, non-profit does not mean unbiased. Nor are they necessarily more accurate.

Worth pointing out that a major counter-proposal is funded by Comcast Spectator (i.e.: owners of the current Sixers arena, can't imagine why they'd want to fund construction on the same site that the Sixers want)

Exactly. I’m not saying the cops should do it, but you’d think they’d take a moment to pause before harassing literally one of the most famous men in their city. If that doesn’t make them reconsider their actions, just imagine what it’s like for everyone else. Tyreek Hill even made a comment about it in a post-game press conference, where he wondered what would’ve happened to someone else.
