Personal account. Unions are good. Climate change is bad but we can fix it.
Left (another) message with Fetterman’s office expressing my opposition to this. Can’t believe I even had to do that…

jerry told me the draft folder keeps eating posters so I asked how many posters and he said he just goes to the timeline and gets a new poster afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding posters to the drafts folder and he started cackling

The people that benefit most at the markets being at record highs are the same people in the Epstein files so…
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

wrote about Michael J. Fox's appearance on Shrinking, which was cool for a lot of reasons, some of them pretty important to me

I'm going to make this about me, eventually, but not before we talk about how cool this was.

Good thread

Also what do you mean they don’t make Heinz there anymore?
A few thoughts -- OK a bunch really -- based on this KDKA story on Kevin Acklin's frustration that efforts to "save the Post-Gazette" are being stymied by the seeming disinterest of its owners, the Block family...

You need to use your local library more. If it absolutely needs to get done and you have literal cents to spare to make it happen, a librarian is like your personal assassin. Libraries have saved my ass so many times, in so many ways.

Cool, solar added 25.4 GW, 18 GW of batteries, and 5.5 GW of wind. Is that more or less than 4.2 GW?

Ditto this for luge. I hate to hand it to NBC Universal but goddamn they put on a good show for these things.
the following drone shot that NBC has for the downhill skiing feels like a paradigm shift in covering the sport. it really changes and lets people see just how fast they're going and how much these guys are just on the razor's edge of complete disaster at all time

Denny is right; it’s not all about you

It’s all about me.

Thank you for your attention to this matter
I would never tell folks how to post but I would say this site would be better if everyone didn't personalize everything. Not everything is about you. It's a freeing thought!
