Sorry to those who’ve followed me for WNBA talk.
You will mostly get posts about my gym days, politics, what I’ve cooked for dinner, and dogs I meet in my neighborhood.
You may also get the occasional personal finance or web development post. 😄

Just discovered this NBER paper examining the safety dangers of car bloat:
"Being hit by a vehicle that is 1,000 pounds heavier results in a 47% increase in the baseline fatality probability."

For a couple of years now, I've been fascinated with what's happening at small liberal arts colleges, which are running out of money for reasons unrelated to Trump funding cuts. Businessweek let me go deep on the problems, and one college that's trying to blaze a new trail.
Why a College Fighting for Survival Is Slashing Econ and Physics Majors
At Albright in Pennsylvania, the new president is cutting programs, selling art and real estate, and vowing not to hire anyone with tenure. Is this the way forward for liberal arts colleges?

“When you’ve collected everything, that’s Thanos. And this year, I collected everything. I don’t really talk much sh-t... let my game do it. This was my biggest moment of doing it, because no one’s ever done what I’ve done. And I think people really needed to understand that.” < PERIOD! #WNBA #WBB

What if the mail loneliness epidemic can be mitigated by dudes holding "Coloring & Beer" themed nights with their friends? Call some bros, bust out some crayons. Bring the kids if you have them so they can color too.

HSAs are great until you need to pay for a $10,000 surgery bill and only have $500 in your HSA.
Republicans continue to be reluctant to renew Obamacare's enhanced tax credits. So they are pushing health savings accounts and high-deductible health plans

Republicans push high deductible plans and health savings accounts
A Republican call to give Americans cash instead of health insurance subsidies revives an old idea that has left millions with medical debt.

I’ll add that choosing a Jewish vice president might’ve even cost votes in broad swaths of the country. 🙃
If Kamala Harris had been a white man, she'd likely be President now.
The END.
Folks need to be honest about this. I'm tired of people ignoring the blatant misogynoir that laces every conversation.

Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin almost always vote the same way in any given election. And she only barely lost these three states.

Are you on generic Vyvanse? There was a nationwide recall in the fall that a lot of people missed because they put out the news generally but didn’t tell people who were on it directly.

It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

I don’t typically read biographies, but …
A very important thread. When I was probably no more than 10, I saw this picture of the woman known as Harlow in the Philly Inquirer. A little babygay, I was shocked that such a glamour queen could live in my hometown and even more shocked to see her described as "a former man."

I'm not sure it's in the self interest of America's tech bro billionaires to suggest that we bring back public executions to punish the most destructive people in our society.
