The rot runs deep, my friends. But then I’ve read a lot of EJMR posts, so not much surprises me anymore.
In between things I've been checking in on the emails that mention "university" and uhh did we all know about this connection?

Oh that sounds fun. I’m always looking for *more opportunities to talk to insurance providers.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

A collective action in which I actually have some clout. Staying tuned.
BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

Starbucks unionized workers say they'll strike on Nov. 13 if coffee giant doesn't finalize contract
Union members say they are ready to strike on the chain's Red Cup Day if Starbucks doesn't finalize a contract with their union by then.

Crashed their writing workshop (during the lunch break!) to say hello to two of my academic idols, @mirya.bsky.social and @cwolbrecht.bsky.social! We should have gotten a picture, but I did come away with some #MHAWS swag.

Sun coming up on a beautiful day in New Orleans (and Winston Churchill), where I’m lucky enough to find myself for the third time this year — this time to discuss the economics of the child care market with state leaders. Excited to discuss policy solutions with those doing the hard work!

If you would like to know how OMB is supposed to function, follow @bbkogan.bsky.social
There are four exceptions where you can incur obligations during a shutdown despite having no funding.
One is if the action is necessary to discharge the President’s constitutional duties and powers.
OMB is asserting that conducting mass firings falls under that.
