Now would be a great time for a 10 episode, 20 hour prestige series about the ten years between 1916 and 1926, covering the establishment of the 8-hr work day & 5-day work week, in the US. Each episode would be one year & the middle episode should be entirely devoted to the Battle of Blair Mountain.

Being a billionaire means deciding every day that keeping that wealth in your pocket is more important than anything it might do to help others. It’s a ritual of unthinkable evil performed afresh every morning.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Without AI the GDP growth in the US for the last quarter was 0.1%. AI currently accounts for 70% of all stock market growth.
America is a financially dying country and the ripple effects of this bubble bursting are going to be devastating.

Ken Burns: Chiptune
I figure Ken Burns has one, maybe two big documentary series in him before he fully retires. What do you think they should be? My votes include Football, Hip-Hop, World War 1, Reconstruction (though Skip Gates did this one well), Iraq/Afghanistan, 19th Century Expansionism.

Underrated thing that's been flying under the radar: ICE's hiring spree, by necessity since there are so few others willing and able, has been hiring away local cops, which infuriates the departments by causing manpower problems and is, ironically, removing the worst of the worst from their ranks.
The more local police see ICE assholes as criminals, the better it will be for us.
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Dreamed that the word “literally” was a shortening of the phrase “literary trickery” and its further shortening to “Lit’ry” was an example of—and I said this so confidently in the dream—something called “linguistic back frogging”
As far as I know literally all of this is nonsense
