@all90saltrock I thought it sounded PFG

Pearl Jam playing “Black” at Seattle’s Magnuson Park (Sept 20, 1992) is one of those shows where you can feel the air change. Eddie straight up admits it’s hard to sing, asks the crowd to help, and then the whole place carries it with him. Absolute goosebumps.

Light Composites is hiring for two full time positions in our Kitcut department. We are also looking for a program manager.

@AdamSinger Fingers crossed for espresso next

This gentleman is getting a ton of well-earned attn for his product. Smart, counter-trend idea: no WiFi, no app, doesn't charge recurring fee to use, no upgrades to unlock features. Durable materials, no cheap plastic, not designed to break & be replaced. More like this, please

@forestmanjohn This is amazing and I can congratulate you. If you do an espresso maker you will take my money.

3 months ago, I quit my job to chase a dream: to build an affordable, convenient, plastic-free coffee maker. Grateful for everyone who has reserved ❤️ puresteelco.com

@DeItaone Cool. How do I get my money back?

SUPREME COURT STRIKES DOWN TRUMP’S GLOBAL TARIFFS The Supreme Court ruled Friday that President Trump’s global tariffs are illegal, rejecting his use of emergency powers to impose trade duties. • The tariffs, covering imports from Canada, China, Mexico, and nearly all countries, were projected to raise $1.5 trillion over a decade. • Trump justified them as a response to fentanyl and trade deficits, declaring national emergencies. • Lawsuits argued the tariffs were unauthorized taxes on Americans, and lower courts largely agreed. • The decision ends a signature White House trade policy, which had remained in place during litigation.

@TheCinesthetic The people you meet on vacation put it in the trailer.

They don’t do dress reveal reaction scenes like this anymore.

@_The_Prophet__ This is absolute victim bull****. This IS how they perceive the world and what they perceive will become their reality. But it isn’t “written”. They have a choice and they continue to make the wrong one and I believe they know it. That’s all that’s happening here.

⚡️The “DoorDash lifestyle” is an artifact of three massive structural shifts older generations don’t see because they didn’t grow up inside them. Let’s break the illusion. 1. The marginal cost of money changed for Gen Z For older adults, spending thirty dollars feels like spending thirty dollars. For kids today, the psychological cost is closer to: “three microtransactions worth of friction” Because their financial environment is built on: •instant digital payments •low-commitment gig incomes •parents transferring money fluidly •side hustles paid in irregular small bursts •stimulus-era normalization of cash flow volatility Teenagers today often have: •$30 now •$0 tomorrow •$50 on Friday •$15 in crypto •$70 in Cash App from someone they did homework for •a $20 Venmo from grandma •$60 from a weekend shift There is no “budget.” There is flow. And in a flow economy, a $30 DoorDash order is not a “luxury”. It is just another digital outflow in a stream of constant micro inflows. 2. Consumption is now social currency Older generations spent money to solve problems. Gen Z spends money to signal identity, reduce friction, and avoid emotional drag. DoorDash is not about food. It is about: •eliminating effort •eliminating planning •eliminating discomfort •eliminating logistics •eliminating decision fatigue This generation pays premiums to remove negative psychic load. Food delivery is an anxiety-management subscription. And they learned this from: •Amazon Prime •Uber •TikTok dopamine tuning •frictionless apps •the collapse of effort-based value signals Convenience is the default baseline now. 3. The middle class collapsed, but lifestyle costs decoupled from income This is the part most boomers and Gen X don’t understand. Kids aren’t behaving like they’re poor. They’re behaving like people living in a post-middle-class economy where: •ownership is dead •savings are pointless •buying a home is impossible •college is a debt sentence •inflation destroys the dollar •wages do not map to adult milestones •upward mobility is gone So what happens? They shift to a present-maximization mindset. If the future is unaffordable anyway, why not buy the burrito now? Younger people are not reckless. They are rational inside a broken incentive system. The real truth DoorDash is a symptom. A society where: •future stability is gone •wages stagnate •housing is unattainable •attention is fragmented •convenience is normalized •friction feels archaic •everything is mediated digitally …will produce kids who treat $30 like a tap on a screen, not a financial decision. They’re not “funding a lifestyle.” They’re surviving inside the economy they were handed.

Saw John @mulaney at the Sydney Opera House last night for my wife’s birthday. I haven’t laughed that hard in so long. Hope that set goes on tape soon. My God! It was poetry! Perfect 10. Well done sir.

You’re not gonna see a better argument in favor of roboumps than what just happened to Xander and the Padres in the 9th.

@bscholl Was thinking internally THIS MORNING that I love our Breville espresso machine so much. It’s our second in 15ish years. The fact that the algo served me this TODAY without me saying anything freaks me out! Lol!

Replaced my Nespresso machine with a real Breville espresso maker… and my favorite beans from a small batch roaster in Seattle. Best decision of my adult life.

My bad. It’s a tv thing:

.@DonOrsillo & Mud, will you please tell your wardrobe person or whoever is asking you to wear the sport coats that you never button the second button while seated? Without consulting google or Chat, I’m almost 100% old fash certain this is the way. ❤️ the matched pocket squares!

I caved and asked. It’s worse than I thought!

@skenzyme @zanehengsperger This

@zanehengsperger Depends. Are they a niche defense-oriented machine shop with an exclusive contract making a small selection of replacement aerospace components for an airframe originally designed by a defense contractor that went bankrupt in 1987? If so, I bet they're doing pretty well.

look at the expenses of a 50 year old machine shop doing $50M annually your eyes will widen

@chrisbmullins @VolvoCarUSA You got it. No news since this post.

@ryanhosmer @VolvoCarUSA Keep me up to date? I'll do the same.

@VolvoCarUSA when I spend $93,575 on a brand new car, I have a level of expectation. I'm one week in, and I want to return this thing. 1) This morning I noticed that the front fairing was not installed correctly. I can see from the female tab slots that still have the factory plastic untouched. 🧵

@blueprintsmb22 Humans need rules and boundaries. They want them. Even though they don’t think they do. You have to be tough but fair. Otherwise it’s chaos.

Maybe it’s due to fatigue from over 2 years operating by myself, but lately I’ve been the calm/don’t do me any favors boss with my blue collar labor running a manufacturing biz. First 12 months, as the white collar ex finance guy I was overly nice as I had no idea how to hire nor do the jobs myself. Employees would show up late and I would have tools and equipment stolen. Now they I’ve hired new people and have a better sense of the current labor market (leverage back w employers, especially in manufacturing), I have just told any disgruntled employee they are welcome to leave and that nobody is a victim and should be happy and encourage them to leave immediately. The message now is if you aren’t into being part of what we are trying to build, you can leave immediately and I will replace you no problem. For the first time since I’ve taken over, I’m relaxed about the key man risk in my team and that pple are engaged and working hard to help the biz survive whatever is going on this year. You can’t be the nice guy in this world sadly. You have to set expectations and be firm or you will get walked all over by the team.

@andywaysworld @reindsummit Let’s get a giant American flag on the wall and take a good pic for them!

@reindsummit @ryanhosmer

If you're a manufacturer building in America, post a picture of your factory in action with your company's name in reply to this post. We will start highlighting those pics and companies as part of our daily "good morning we will Reindustrialize America" posts.

This morning I said, “boys, Poway Mower wants $150 and 8 weeks to fix the carburetor on our Husqvarna 128C weed whacker. Look it up on youtube. I’ll pay you the money to spend however you’d like if you can fix it. Here’s the carburetor I ordered from Amazon.” And I walked away.
