Having lost their last four games, Leeds United get a valuable three points and move out of the Premier League relegation zone with a 3-1 win over Chelsea.

Enzo Maresca has faced Leeds three times in his career. He has lost all of them.

Leeds United and Sheffield United must have been involved in a Freaky Friday swap. Congrats to the Black Cats on their promotion

The KC Cauldron and South Stand release a joint statement:

“Peter Vermes must resign as manager. This is not a request—it is a demand from a fanbase that refuses to watch its club wither under outdated tactics and unchallenged authority.”

Elon Musk has been a walking SEC violation for a decade and no one cared. The entire Trump era could have been avoided if the US took white collar crime anywhere near as seriously as it does low level drug crime.

On a 2023 earnings call, Elon Musk boasted that Tesla had bagged “over 1 million” Cybertruck reservations and that “demand is off the charts.”

So why has the company still sold less than 50,000 trucks since customer deliveries began 14 months ago?
‘Over 1 Million’ People Wanted a Cybertruck. Where Are They?
“Demand is off the charts!” Elon Musk crowed at the end of 2023, citing more than a million reservations for Tesla's polarizing polygonic pickup—so why has it still sold less than 50,000?

Trump et al are using these tactics to reassert dominance and impose hierarchies they consider "natural" on every level.

Men over women.

Parents over children.

White people over everyone else. 

America over the world...

The goal is far more ambitious than deregulation and privatization.

Congresswoman Kay Granger, reportedly in assisted living, transferred the deed to her home in July for $10, according to property records I obtained. July is when she cast her last recorded vote.

Raised crosswalks demand motorist attention and naturally enforce speed calming, making modal conflict points safer for everyone. Proper design prioritizes safety. No sign alone can achieve that.

I think the main person who loses from remote work is the younger worker who still is still developing work habits, benefits from in-person feedback and socialization, and might actually like to make a few friends. That cohort is forever stuck in professional Zoom University.
Work from home was a boon to productive workers and an absolute catastrophe for the group of middle managers and executives who make their living putting their names on other people's work and that latter group started to undermine it as soon as they realized this.
I do not understand why, after remote work has been repeatedly proven to be just as productive (if not more so) than in-office work, people should be required to return to in-office work in order to justify the money the bosses spent on real estate.

Tough loss for the KC Current today. Woeful defending for goals 2 & 3. I wonder why Vlatko subbed off 2 of his best players in the 2nd half. Could have used LaBonta and Debinha toward the end. Arbitrary refereeing as well.
