On the other hand $6/gal gas would be great for the climate.

Went to The French Laundry on my honeymoon but I guess it’s unfortunate that I can’t go there again because TKells is a piece of shit NIMBY. Oh well.

She must have PhD level expertise when it comes to creeps.

I feel like @beijingpalmer.bsky.social has noted on several occasions that you see Chotiner style interactions in the British press on the regular.

I have concrete board walls with a plaster skim coat (some weird intermediary between plaster and lathe and gypsum board) so my 2k sq ft house is a basically an assemblage of Faraday cages. To solve my wifi issues I had to go with a commercial system with 5 APs all with ethernet backhaul.

What happens if you rotate the mesh device?

Not to play assignment editor, but I’d love to read something about a small time restaurant’s expansion into a regional chain and the issues that go along with that.

I hope they do well, but one wonders about any restaurant that tries to scale up at such a pace. That kind of business takes a different skill set than what got them to this point.

I could care less if there’s never another such address to Congress. Presidents used to just send a letter. And yeah, the job is bigger and more important than Trump, a fact which he does not agree with. Everything we can do to lessen his power is a win and sitting there watching him ain’t it.

Yeah, stunts are also acceptable.

Sure, and I’m disappointed in the ones who did.

I do not think them walking out or not showing up will change much, but it’s really bare minimum, zero cost stuff that there’s no reason not to do it.

As a progressive, I get mad a Dems for participating in spectacles like this because their presence lends credibility and a certain sense that things are somehow operating within normal bounds. That’s plainly not true and pretending otherwise won’t make it so. No need to be his prop.

Mercantilism and racism, that's pretty much it.

I'm going to hope that she knows she's worth more than they can pay and she has a better job lined up somewhere.

Seems like we always have a revolving door with all the local sideline reporters for all the major teams. We see them long enough to get attached and then they do shit like this. Pretty sure it would really benefit the broadcast if they, idk, let someone stick around for decades.

As a single point of anecdata, my liberal gun despising wife recently raised the issue of potentially buying a gun, given the current political circumstances.

Those that would create in the US a king more powerful than the British king we cast off have committed treason against this Republic and shall reap the whirlwind.

Hey, those DuPont workers who were exposed to β€œtoo much” lead would see butterflies all the time, even when they weren’t there. Doesn’t sound too bad.

This is a good first step but why is he dragging his feet on putting lead back in gasoline?

It’s a pull quote not a headline and it’s actually the first sentence and thesis of the piece.

1. working class, 2. multiracial, 3. the idea that Rs are actually want non-white working class people as part of their base much less that they are doing anything to make that happen, I feel like we could keep going here.

Is part of that calculus the fact that there's also no guarantee the field would clear for Newsom for the purposes of opposing AOC?
