I Traveled to 46States inAmerica ThisSummer.Here’sWhyTrump Won.
By Frank S. Zhou
By Ezekiel A. Wells
Ezekiel A. Wells ’27is aDouble Concentrator in Environment Science & Engineering and Economics in EliotHouse. He spentlastsummertraveling to 46Americanstates conductinginterviews forhisYouTube series, “CrossroadsAmerica.”
A week after Democrats’ election loss, accusations have flown in every direction within their Party. Some faultPresidentJoe Biden for an egoistic refusal todropout of therace earlier. Someblame the Harris campaign for failing to servekey demographics and communicate a clearvision for the country. And someblameAmericans, claiming that racism and sexism drove voters towardTrump.
These factors certainly exist, but we’remissing a largerpiece of the picture.
Over thesummer, I traveled to 46states in the U.S., creating aYouTube series highlighting slices oflife across the country. In conversations from my nearly three-monthroad trip, I spoke with Republicanswho were certain that inflationis entirely Biden’s fault and Democratswho, despite their frustrations with corporate profits and desires foruniversal healthcare, hoped for amore moderate candidate. From supporters ofall candidates, I heard a shockingamount of misinformation.
After combing through hundreds of hours ofinterview footage fromswingstateTrump voters, Iam certain that,as muchas other factors influenced theoutcome of the election, our crumbling media landscape — whichhas caused arift in our democracy —ismost toblame.
In the postwar period,newswas dominatedby threemain channels, and because ofthe FairnessDoctrine, eachstation reported the same stories and covered multiple sides of eachissue.Viewers picked which channels they watchedmainly basedon their preferences fornewsanchors’ personalities. Of course, thismodel hadits problems, but,at the end of the day,it meant thatAmericans worked with a sharedset of facts.
A sharedset of factsis notthe world welive intoday.
Throughout myinterviews, conspiracy theories were rampant, andonat leastfive separate occasions across separatestates, Iwas told that Bill Gates tampers with ourfood, adding plastic to our fruits and vegetables tomakehis medical investmentsmore profitable.
In conversations with voters, neither side seemed able tonamemany specific policyissues they cared about; everyone just seemed to repeat the words of theirfavorite pundits,podcast hosts, andinternet personalities.
Although this behavioris harmful, Idon’tblame everydayAmericans.Blame fallson the media thathas ostracized, disillusioned, and misinformed them.

I firstsaw this trend withlow-wage workers in West Virginia,who — despitefalling inflationrates — have seen stagnated salaries and clear increases infood costs. ChannelslikeFoxNews bred anger and resentment formany of them.
TakeJuly of thissummer, for example, when for the firsttime inhis presidency, prices actually fell under the Biden administration. Traditional media establishments rushed tocelebrate thisvictory, withone article fromCNN declaring, “The White House can finallycrossout ‘inflation’onits list ofpresidential liabilities.” However,outside these bubbles, I observedmanyAmericans held a differentview.
In lateJuly, Iwas welcomedat a massive familyreunion in Tylertown, Mississippi, whereoneTrump voter — a middle-aged, Black, familyman, pastor, andsoulfood enthusiast —made this clear.
“When Igo in the grocery stores, and Igotta spend mylast toget groceries,you mean totell me I’m notgonnalook and seewho’sgonna vote to help me? I voted forTrump and I’d vote forhimagain, because he put money in ourpocket,” he told me.
In their coverage,mainstreamnews organizations obsessover the Federal Reserve’snextrate cuts while failing toconnect with people concernedwith theirnext meals.With titleslike “Vance:YoungAmericans ‘Are Becoming Paupers’ Due To Inflation, High Housing Costs,” siteslike The DailyWire had their fingerson the pulse ofAmerican sentiment, welcoming new readership from thosewhofelt neglectedby traditional media.
This problemwas not just confined to the economy. While Biden’s mentalstatewas deteriorating,liberal mediaoutlets seemed to under-cover these stories, shelteringhim from scrutiny ofhis declining capabilities, until theinfamouspresidential debate.
Formerly trusted networksslowlymade themselves indigestible to the polarizedAmerican public, and in 2024, for the third year in a row, a Gallup pollfound thatmoreAmericans indicated having “no trust” in the media than thosewho trustit a “great deal/fairamount”.
So wheredoes the averageAmerican turn when thenation’s media cannot be trusted? Formany people,itwasYouTubetalk shows,Newsmax, andpodcasters suchasJoe Rogan.
While Democrats seek toblame various internal factors for this election’s loss, I cannot help but think ofJoe Rogan’sTrump endorsement, themany blind lies I heard from ordinary citizens across the country, and declining trust inAmerican journalism.
AsHarvard students and members of highereducation institutions, we have a part to play in the problem.AtHarvard’s Institute ofPolitics, thosewho denied the 2020 election results have been precluded from speakingat theJFKJr. Forum. While thegoalis understandable,it shields students from understanding theAmericanviewpoints they represent.

Thereis adifferencebetween platforming intentional andmanipulative misinformation and listening to and learning about where people are and what theybelieve.
As a pipeline tomainstream media,Harvard, andits future journalists, have to consider the audience they lose when theystay inside of their bubble and ignore theissues of everydayAmericans.
The disappearance of factual importance in our worldis alarming and dangerous, but if we,asaspiring journalists, politicians, andengaged citizens, want to betaken seriously in communicatingTrump’s threat to democracy, inflationary tariff policies, and soon, we oweAmerican voters that seriousness, too.

I think career planningis not essential for a successful worklife especially forwoman. I wouldlike to show example inJapan.
InJapan usuallywoman starts their carrier after graduated from the university. Isaw statistics shows thatwoman’s salary starts from 1 to 3 millionyen in the biggening. Thepeak of the salarywill be around theage of 25as 5 to 6 millionyen. After thatitwilldrop harshly to 100 million to 0yen.Why we have thishugedrop?
The reasonis thatmost ofJapanesewoman retire after theirmarriage called “Hanayome Taisha” and some of themwill be housewives, that means no longer tocontinue their carrier. However, thesedaysitis very hard tolive relyonman’s income tolive inmetropolis. Some ofwoman start workingas a parttimer totake care of their children while husband works fulltime and this makeswoman not to be able to paid well. The statics shows thatwoman’s carrier restartbetween 30 to 35 years old but the salarywill not be thepeaklike their 20s anymore. From these statistics, I thinkwoman’s carrier dependson what kind oflifestyle they want.

I think career planningis not essential for a successful worklife, especially for women. I wouldlike to provide an example fromJapan.
InJapan, women usually start their careers after graduating from university. Statistics show that women's salaries start from 1 to 3 millionyenat thebeginning. Thepeak of their salaryis typically around theage of 25, ranging from 5 to 6 millionyen. However, after that,itdrops sharply to 100 million to 0yen.Why do we see thishugedrop?
The reasonis thatmostJapanese women retire after getting married, a phenomenon called "Hanayome Taisha," and some become housewives, meaning they no longer pursue their careers. However, thesedaysitis very hard to rely solelyon aman's income tolive in ametropolis. Some women start workingas part-timers totake care of their children while their husbands work full-time, which results in women notbeing paid well.

From these statistics,I believe awoman's career dependson the kind oflifestyle they want.
whyyou use women ? I usedwoman.
ChatGPT
I used "women" instead of "woman" becauseyouroriginaltext seemed to refer to women in general, rather than a specific individual. When discussing womenas agroup,it'smorecommon to use the plural form. However, ifyou prefer to use "woman" to refer to women in general, I can adjust thetext accordingly.

Was told "no foreigners"by aclinic
I just recently moved to a newarea inTokyo, I called a nearbyclinic tomake a reservation (inJapanese) and pretty quickly into the conversation, the receptionist asked if I couldgosomewhere else instead. When I askedwhy,she clearly and blatantly said "theydon'ttake foreigners." Iwas shocked so I askedagain just tomake sure I heard rightand againshe said theydon'ttake foreigners.
When I accused theclinic of discrimination they tried to denyit and claim that "it's difficult to communicate with foreigners," though I've never had thatissueatany otherJapanese speakingonlyclinic or hospital.
If this were just abar orsomething I'ddropit, butthe fact that aCLINIC can blatantly discriminateagainst patients seems insane to me. I'm not expecting much sadly, butis thereanywhere I can report them?
I'm paranoid about just leaving bad reviews because I've seen a first handcase ofsomeone getting suedoverone.
UPDATE:
I called a "patientvoice" hotline for reporting these sort of things. I explained the situation and they said they would contact theclinic. They later updated me and said they were actually able totalk to the doctor, and he just doubled down and insisted theydidnothing wrong because "communication with foreignersis difficult." After that they basically could not doanything else other than offer sympathylol...
[患者の声相談窓口 東京都保健医療局 (tokyo.lg.jp)](https://www.hokeniryo.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/iryo/sodan/madoguchi.html)
I also called thisgovernment hotline. First they tried to refer me back to the patientvoice hotline. After I explained the results from patientvoice, they said they aregoing to determine ifit warrants an investigation, which wouldtake 2-3 weeks. They also warned that theclinicis allowed to decline the investigation... so honestly I'm expectingnothing. But they said they would contact meagain in 2-3 weeks.

Local police just said different hospitals have different rules andnothing can bedone, justgo to a differentclinic.
患者の声相談窓口東京都保健医療局 に相談してもクリニックが拒否をしたらそれ以上に何もせず同情しただけ。
いまは人権擁護局 に相談中とのこと。でもクリニックは人権擁護局からの調査を拒否できるらしい。
今の時点で1000以上のupvoteが付いてるが、これは japanlife subreddit ではかなり多い方。
こういう仕事は割とあるんだがなかなかのヤバさだったので紹介したい
ちなみにサービスの内容は非常に良くてユーザーも万単位で付いているらしい
バックエンドはAWSEC2で動作しているがログインアカウントは共通化されていてパスワードを全員で共有している
ユーザーを追加しようとしたら「そのような勝手な行為はセキュリティ上許可されていません」とのこと
本番環境とStagingはインスタンスが分かれているが運用は同じ方法
Staging上で5人ぐらいが作業しているが、ホームの下にそれぞれのユーザーが自分の名前でディレクトリを作って作業している
バックエンド側のシステムは詳細は伏せるが、某システムで動いている
仮にNode.js系だとすると、package.jsonがあってnpmrun installでインストールするのだが、普通にインストールしようとするとエラーになる
内容は依存関係で失敗しているのだが、本番も同じソースで動作している
動作させるにはnode_modulesをまるっとコピーして、とのこと
さっきの自分の名前のディレクトリ配下にコピーしてきて、適当なポート番号でサーバを立ち上げれば一応は動く
このため、新しいモジュールを入れようとすると依存関係で失敗するため、便利なモジュールがあってもインストールできないし
セキュリティアップデートも当てることはできない（現にバージョンがすごく古い）
ソースコードはGitHub管理されているがセーブポイント感覚でcommitされているのでコミットログを見ても何が起きているのかさっぱり分からない
おまけにPRも使わずにmainにマージしまくっていてわけがわからない
加えてソースコードはコメントアウトの嵐でどこに何が書いてあるのかさっぱりわからない
データベースはPostgreSQLだが山ほどテーブルがあるのに外部キー依存は入っていないしVIEWも作られていない
まぁ、他にもテーブルを見ていくとアンチパターンのオンパレードで、EAV、ジェイウォークあたりは確認できたしHTMLやSQLが格納されているテーブルも見つけた
ソース上でクエリを作ってAPIを作っているが、ザッと見ただけでもインジェクションし放題の状態になっていた
フロントエンドも詳細は伏せるが、いわゆるReact的なものを利用している
こちらは npmrun installでインストールできるし npmrun devでちゃんと動く
ただ前述の通りバックエンドはローカルで構築できないのでEC2を利用するしかなく、CORS対応のためのプロキシを自前で用意する必要があった
バックエンド同様にGitHub管理されているが、管理しているだけ
バックエンドは5人ぐらいが利用しているが、ソースコードを編集するのは実質1人なのでコンフリクトはほとんど起こさないらしいが
フロントエンドは5人ぐらいが編集するのでコンフリクトしまくっている
解消するときにデグレすることが日常茶飯事でその都度Hotfixしている
コードもコメントアウトだらけなのに加えて、不必要なコードが大量にあるので可読性が著しく低い
（難しい処理を読み解いて追いかけていったら最終的に使われていない、などが大量にある）
2000行ぐらいあるコードとかChatGPTに突っ込んだら20行ぐらいになる予感がある
また、DBがご覧の状態なので取得されるデータも全然抽象化できておらず、コードが膨れ上がっている
例えばProductの一覧データをサーバから取得して、ユーザーがクリックしたProductをCartに投入するのだが、投入する情報はProductではなく、CartItemにする必要があるし
OrderするときはOrderItemにしてAPIを叩く必要がある
ほとんど同じ情報なのだが微妙に変わっていたりKey名が違っていたりするのでそれぞれ変換する
他にも数え上げればキリがないが、コピペして少しだけ改変している部分などが大量にあってバグがあるのかどうかすら判別できない
DBにHTMLやSQLが入っていると言ったが、調べて見るとDBから取得したHTMLをそのまま埋め込んで表示していたりした
SQLについてはフロントエンド側でSQL生成しており、そのテキストをAPIに送り込んでサーバ側で実行して貰った上で格納とかしていたので
「ここにDROPTABLEとか書けばTABLE消えるんですか？」
と聞くと
とか言われたのでことの重大さを伝えたが、まだ対処できていないようだった
認証等はOAuth2を使っていたので大丈夫そうだったが、本当に大丈夫かどうかは自信がもてない
システム内容はゴミのような状態だがサービス的には良いので、幹部やプロダクトオーナーからは追加要望が山盛り来ている
開発チームが「稼働が足りない」という理由で断ったので「じゃぁ支援して」ということで自分のところに来たのだが
「申し訳ないが、そもそもそういうレベルに無いし、全て作り直しが必要」
と伝えてもどうやら伝わっていない様子
ちなみに元々の開発チームは過去にもこんな感じでサービス作ってたらしいが売れないので問題になってなかった様子
ぱっと見は動いているように見えるのが厄介なところ
正直逃げたいところではある

他に類を見ない、似た曲を探してもそれしかないような曲を10曲紹介するぜ！
『James Blake - Unluck』
James Blakeの1stは衝撃的だった。ジャンルはpostdubstepとかになると思うけど、この曲は異色すぎる。いまだに何拍子か分からない。昔ライブを観たことがあって、どうやってリズムをとって演奏するんだろうと思ったら、体を円を描くように回してリズムをとってたのも衝撃的だった。
『SOPHIE - LEMONADE』
音像がぶっ飛びすぎ。こういうプラスティックな質感の音作りは最近の流行りで、今となってはHyperpopなんてジャンルが出来たけど、結局はSOPHIEみたいな音が皆んな作れないから、わざと音を歪ませまくってるんじゃないかって個人的な考察。こういう音の曲、PCMUSIC周りのアーティストの曲を昔はBubblegumBassなんて言われていたけど、浸透は特にしなかった。
『Hercelot - kit katfat cat chat』
サンプリングの鬼。"おもちゃ箱をひっくり返したような"とはこのこと。いったい何処からサンプル持ってきてるのか気になる。これだけのサンプルを1曲にまとめ上げるのはマジで狂気的。
『Jacob Collier -With TheLove In MyHeart』
鬼才Jacob Collierから1曲。ジャンルを超越しすぎ。ハイセンスなアイディアの押し売りみたいな曲。特に3:18〜からの展開は最高すぎる。
『Ary Warnaar x BenAqua - ANARCHY』
『TAEMIN - DripDrop』
K-POPから1曲。海外のプロデューサーに好き勝手に曲を作らせてて、割と面白い楽曲が多いK-POP。この曲もカテゴライズできないアレンジで、こういうハイクオリティな楽曲が何百何千万と再生されてちゃんと評価されてるのは、純粋に音楽ファンとして嬉しい。
『Pino Palladino + Blake Mills - Ekuté』
どんだけ乾いた音なんだ。ブラスにファズでもかけてるのか、まるでエレキギターを聴いてるかのよう。
『blackmidi - John L』
ジャンル的にはプログレになるんだろうけど、ここまで存在感があるのは凄い。次のアルバムも発売決まったし、本当に楽しみだ。
『Dos Monos - in 20XX』
異色すぎるJapaneseHIPHOPユニットDos Monos。もちろん日本語ラップではあるが、やってることはラップという歌唱法を使ったプログレ。トラックの元ネタをいったい何処から持ってきているのか知りたい。
『imoutoid - PART2』
エディットの鬼。元ネタの「ダ・カーポ 〜第2ボタンの誓い〜」のイントロのたった数秒間だけを使って、ここまでアレンジを展開させるのは本当に神業。

Whole grains" suchas brown rice and barley riceimprove diabetes, sleep, and depression
Keywords
Eating "whole grains" suchaswhole grain bread, brown rice, sprouted brown rice, millet rice, and barley ricelowers the risk of diabetes and obesity.
Studies have also shown that awhole graineating style canimprove sleep and prevent depression.
NotAll Carbohydrates Are CreatedEqual
Choosing the right carbohydratesand adjusting the amount of carbohydratesyoueatis the best approach to controlling diabetes. Of the three macronutrients, carbohydrates are theones that havethe most immediateimpactonbloodsugar, so weneed to be careful about how we consume them.
Eating refined flour orwhite rice, for example,may contain the same amount of carbohydrates, but because they contain less fiber, they are absorbedmore quickly,leading to an increase in postprandialbloodglucose." For diabeticswhoneed to control theirbloodsugar, the recommendationiswhole grains," says Carla Duenas.
Duenasis adietitian with Baptist Health South Florida, a clinical carenetwork withseven hospitals in the U.S.state of Florida.She stresses, "To achieve ahealthydiet,whole grains should be included in thediet, along with high-quality protein, vegetables, and fruits."
What to do about diabetic staples? '50-55% carbs'is healthiest
Not a fan of brown rice? Glutinous brown rice can help.

Replacewhite rice with brown rice
Whole grains are grains that have not had their hulls,seedskins, embryos, or endosperm removedbyprocessing suchas milling.
Many studies have shown that adiet rich inwhole grains reduces the risk of diabetes, obesity, andheart diseasemore than adiet rich in refined grains.
Familiarwhole grains includefoods suchas bread, pasta, and oatmealmade fromwhole wheat grains, brown rice, sprouted brown rice, millet rice, and barley rice containing barley.
Brown riceis awhole grain and rich in fiber. Althoughwhole grains are not necessarily the best choice, replacingwhite rice with brown riceis recommended for people with diabetes or obesity," Duenas advises.
Youget the fiberyoutend to lack.
Carbohydrates can be divided intosimple carbohydrates, which raisebloodglucoselevels quickly, andcomplex carbohydrates, which raise themslowly.Simple carbohydrates are thosefound insweets and fruits, whilecomplex carbohydrates are thosefound in grains, potatoes,beans, and otherfoods.
Complex carbohydratestake longer to be absorbed and raisebloodglucoselevelsat a slowerrate because they are broken down intosimple carbohydrates beforebeing digestedand absorbed.
Complex carbohydrates are "healthy carbohydrates.Whole grains suchas unrefined flour and brown rice have properties similar tocomplex carbohydrates. They are rich in nutrients that are often lacking, suchas fiber, vitamins, minerals,and antioxidants, which arelost during the refining process," Duenas pointsout.
Refined carbohydrates can also causeinsomnia.
Thirty percent of adults suffer frominsomnia, and part of the causemay bedietary style. Refined carbohydratesmay increase the risk ofinsomnia in women, according to a study.
The study showed that postmenopausal womenwhoeatjunkfoods andsoft drinks, especially those high in carbohydrates, aremore likely to developinsomnia.
Conversely, womenwho consumemore fiber-rich fruits and vegetables have a decreased risk ofinsomnia.
The studywas conductedbyJames Ganwish and colleagues from the Bagelos School of MedicineatColumbia University inthe UnitedStates.
77,860 women were studied for three years.
Insomniais often treated with pharmacotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, both of which are costly to the patient and expensive. Improvingone'sdietislow-cost, easy to implement, and free of side effects," says Ganwish.
The studyis basedon data from observational studies conductedby theNational Institutes of Health (NIH) Women's Health Initiative Study (WHI) to obtain information to prevent and treat health problems among women.
The researchers examined theassociationbetweeninsomnia and 77,860 postmenopausal womenwho participated in the WHI. They surveyed them about theirdietary habits and followed them for three years from 1997 to 2001.
The participants were analyzedby dividing them intofivegroups according toGIlevel, anindex that indicates the ease with whichbloodglucoselevelsrise after a meal.
The results revealed a 16% higher risk of developinginsomniaand an11% higher prevalence in thegroup with higherdietaryGI values. The study alsofound that the higher the intake of vegetables and fruits, thelower the risk ofinsomnia.
The study alsofound alower risk of developing depression.
The studyfound that "aspike inbloodglucoselevels after a meal stimulates the secretion of insulin, whichlowersbloodglucose, andmaylead to astate of hyperinsulinemia.As a result,bloodglucoselevelsdrop and the secretion of hormones suchas adrenaline andcortisol increases, whichmay disrupt sleep," explains Ganwish.
Thefoods thattriggerinsomniamay be processedfoods that contain highlevels ofisomerizedsugar, whichis composed of fructose andglucose. Suchfoods arenot found innature, but are mass-produced industrially and sold cheaply.
Fruits also contain fructose, but they are also rich in fiber. Fruits have alowGIand are thought to be less likely to cause postprandialbloodsugar elevation.
A study of 69,954 womenwho participated in the WHI, publishedby Ganwish and colleagues in 2015, also showed that womenwhoate a highGIdiet had a 22% higher risk of developing depression.
Gunwish noted, "Weneed randomized clinical trials to determine the benefits of improvingdiet and increasing intake ofwhole grains andcomplex carbohydrates to prevent and treatinsomnia and depression."
