At Port of Hueneme, Schiff says tariffs are 'driving our economy into a ditch' - Ventura County Star

It was an honor to lead a discussion with the Senator at the Port Of Hueneme. The Port has thrived while reducing emissions over the last decade, and that has been largely due to our support from our Congresswoman and Senators.

True story. I was reading this link on Bluesky without my glasses and I originally thought this was a mildly comic Onion article until I realized it was actually a mildly comédie news article.

“Pyrrhenfreude”

The feeling of satisfaction at someone else’s downfall, only to realize that their misfortune also harms you.

I think this is going to have to be 2025's word of the year.

Fantastic time participating in the Chinese New Year's parade. San Francisco's only night parade and the only night Chinese New Year's parade. Captain Kirk brought out the Batmobile and gave my wife a ride.

I can understand the idea of America first. What I can't understand is the idea of America only. American military might is expensive. Its soft power is much cheaper and more effective.

This is a dangerous move by the Trump administration. Any slowdown of hiring in the parks and Forest Service will degrade our ability to repspond to national disasters. i know because I have worked with and trained these individuals for decades.

The SFLC “Shining Star” Award was presented to Ron Lewis, VP of IBEW Local 6. Starting as an apprentice, he leaned into challenges, embraced teamwork, and credited his wife of 30 years as the “quarterback” who enabled his success.

Notes on the fires from a firefighter.
The intense spread of the fire was because of the extreme winds. Anytime you fight even a structure fire in high winds you have to worry about the exposures around it. With multiple buildings burning with 40 mph dry winds, It's simply unstoppable at that time.
