Wisconsin Gov. Evers wrote when vetoing silly WI GOP legislation:
“I object to Republican lawmakers passing legislation they acknowledge is unnecessary to prevent problems they admit do not exist, all for the sake of trying to push polarizing political rhetoric.”

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.
Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.
This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Pre-trial hearings are usually empty for most cases. The Luigi Mangione hearings, on the other hand, are happening in a packed courtroom — and not everyone is happy about the coverage.

I also meet a lot of active, happy, engaged seniors. I love asking them what their secret is, and it's always two things:

2: Sometimes to care about. Garden. Grandkids. Pets. Doesn't matter.

Inversions are back in Northern California and will stick around next week, meaning the foothills and mountains will be warmer than the valleys.
These patterns give meteorologists headaches. For example, it's 43ºF in Sacramento right now, 3ºF lower than what NWS predicted at this hour. #CAwx

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.
