Private-Credit Investors Are Cashing Out in Droves Redemptions by individual investors in the funds soared at the end of 2025 after performance declined, reviving questions about suitability.

Private credit, where have I read about that before… oh yes: "high-interest loans to midsize corporations with junk credit ratings… β€œThese investors get really surprised when their dividends go down.”"

I hear you, man! Electing Trump was like driving over a cliff (or shitting the bed, or shooting oneself in the dick, etc.)β€”very avoidable, but once it's done, there just aren't a lot of great options. Everything we do now is harder, costlier, and less effectiveβ€”but still better to do than give up.

U.S. manufacturers are still shedding thousands of jobs, as workers ask White House for help Job cuts at a Whirlpool factory in Iowa underscore the challenges in reviving American manufacturing. "Every day, workers' jobs are still in jeopardy," a union official said.

From his list of "halls of power" where there absolutely are evangelicals (Speaker of the House!!!), I guess actual his gripe must be that they don't dominate ALL the halls of power.

HAPPY CROSSOVER DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

Today is Crossover Day for the Georgia General Assembly’s 2026 session.

That means any bill that has a hope of becoming law* needs to have passed in the chamber where it was drafted (either the House or Senate) and β€œcrossed over” to the other for further approval.

Here are some of the big priorities:

    Data centers and whether to protect customers from the soaring energy costs they incur
    Income and property taxes and whether to eliminate or significantly reduce them
    Election issues and whether to ditch touchscreen voting and return to hand-marked paper ballots

From this morning's @ajc.com newsletter, it's a big legislative day in Georgia, with top issues being data centers, cutting taxes for the wealthy, & election shenanigans. Not mentioned here, but of course Republicans also continue to legislate their bigotry in anti-trans bills like HB 54 & HB 1210.

I feel like The Pitt has been ratcheting up the horniness each episode this season. All the ladies fanning themselves over that radiologist…

Around that time, my parents had mix-tapes of stuff they recorded off the radio onto 8-track, and one item was some guy singing, "I'll sing you a song of Gerald R. Ford, and all the things he's done…" Then a lingering silence until the audience laughs. Can't find it now!

Okay, but "how the old hole *used* to feel" (even if it wasn't great) was what a lot of us were searching for!!

As with Vietnam - when the military starts to list off big numbers instead of tangible accomplishments, things are going nowhere
