Old British actresses with no work done are beautiful and classy. Stop pulling and filling your faces to look like 4 year old Korean kids. Embrace aging. You earned it. Be a dame.

i am like wife guy numero uno, this is no secret, but it makes me sad that this guy has somehow pathologized what i can only assume is a deep craving for his wife's presence. interesting outgrowth of memeified therapy culture

i have been thinking about this for almost an entire day !

This was one of the things that inspired me to write the piece—because what would it mean NOT to be deeply dependent on your wife of 25 years??

These seminaries prob do a lot of good…

The only driver interviewed said he was happy with the law — before the law he would often time make little to no money after a full night of driving.

Let's take a look at how Seattle's DoorDash law actually turned out. In 2024, Seattle implemented "PayUp" — a minimum wage law for food delivery drivers, setting the rate at $26.40/hour. The intent was to protect workers. Here's what actually happened: DoorDash added a $5 fee to every order. Customers stopped ordering. Within two weeks, 30,000 fewer orders. UberEats volume dropped 30%. Drivers — the people the law was supposed to help — saw their available deliveries cut in half and earnings per hour fall 25%. A new National Bureau of Economic Research study confirmed what the numbers already showed: higher per-delivery pay was completely offset by fewer deliveries and lower tips. Active drivers saw zero net gain in monthly earnings. KUOW reported this week that two years in, the results are undeniable — Seattle is now the most expensive delivery market in the country. Denver, Portland, and San Francisco, cities without these laws, saw delivery revenue grow 20-40%. Seattle stagnated. The parallel to what's happening with WA tax proposals is obvious. SB 6346 would impose a 9.9% income tax on high earners. The QSBS add-back bills would strip federal tax exclusions from founders. The argument is always "just a small tax on those who can afford it." But capital moves. Founders move. Companies incorporate elsewhere. The DoorDash data gives us a controlled experiment: same company, same product, same time period, different policy environments. The city with the heaviest regulation saw the worst outcomes — including for the workers it tried to protect. Incentives matter. Every time. kuow.org/stories/seattl… #StartupLaw #WashingtonState #PolicyMatters #QSBS #Founders #waleg

This is so dumb. Being armed led to his death. Should he have shot at them? There were dozens of armed officers.
Dean Phillips@deanbphillips
For years I quietly mocked 2A defenders who argued arms were necessary to defend American rights against a tyrannical government. Today I apologize, because I’ve seen it with my own eyes.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump is CALLING OUT the "stupid people" who support wind energy in Davos
"China is smart. They make windmills, sell 'em for a fortune, and sell 'em to the STUPID PEOPLE that buy them!" 🤣
"Windmills all over Europe, all over the place, and they are LOSERS. One thing I've learned: the more windmills a country has, the more money that country LOSES. CHINA makes almost all the windmills, and yet I haven't been able to find any wind farms in China!"

The obsession with apocalyptic stakes in action films is exhausting. Not every story needs the fate of the world. Smaller conflicts can feel more immediate, more personal, and often more thrilling.

What recent trends in films do you dislike?

@calleymeans You’re right! This is the tactic they should use to build support for their plan, instead of having someone on tv sound like a good talking about low cost dinner. I’m not sure where you live but in our AREA, this would be such a big deal. Our kids eat garbage everyday at school.
English
Here’s a delicious, REAL food school lunch meal plan for $1.73 per day. The average budget for schools is $4.60, so this leaves significant room for overhead and staff.
We don’t have a budget problem. We had a system slanted against farmers and kids the admin is fixing.
Grok@grok
Yes, we can upscale to $2.50/meal for richer ingredients while staying under budget (bulk wholesale estimates from USDA 2025-26 data, per serving). Sample week: Mon: Baked chicken ($0.70), brown rice ($0.30), carrots/broccoli ($0.40), yogurt ($0.40) - $1.80 Tue: Ground beef stir-fry ($0.80), quinoa ($0.40), mixed greens ($0.30), sauerkraut ($0.30) - $1.80 Wed: Chicken veggie soup ($0.60), whole grain bread ($0.25), spinach ($0.25), kefir drink ($0.45) - $1.55 Thu: Beef meatballs ($0.75), barley ($0.35), green beans ($0.35), yogurt ($0.40) - $1.85 Fri: Chicken salad ($0.65), couscous ($0.30), tomatoes/cukes ($0.35), mild kimchi ($0.35) - $1.65 Avg: $1.73. Scalable for bulk!

When people say things like this, I really wonder how literal they’re being vs how emotional manipulative they’re being. He’d pay his whole fortune, be penniless, after being rich rich rich for decades, for one day with his parents?
David Senra@davidsenra
"I'd pay my entire fortune to have one more night with my parents." "I think about my parents. My dad died in 2004. My mom died in 1987, and I still have conversations with them. I ask for forgiveness for them, and I give them forgiveness. I'd pay my entire fortune to have one more night with my parents. That'd be so great to be able to tell them how much I appreciate all the things they did and how much I loved them. And also, 'hey, Mom, I turned out okay.' So, we'll call that a minor regret in my life that I couldn't make my mother happy on her deathbed."

Not necessarily my experience with homeschooling. Def saw examples of all these. From kids and parents.
Robert Bortins@TheRobertBshow
NYTimes: We need to regulate homeschooling; we can't trust parents. Public School: 40% of kids bullied, 30% sexually harassed, 34% read at grade level, $18K a year. Homeschoolers: 0% bullied, 0% sexually harassed, 99% read above grade level, $1000 a year. Wild.

Tonight is the last time I will sleep in my own bed next to my loving wife. For the next 5 years I will be housed in a federal prison at taxpayer expense for a "crime" without a victim. Just one of many victims of lawfare perpetrated by a weaponized Biden DOJ where truth and justice were sidelined in favor of a political anti innovation agenda. Where evidence was hidden and suppressed because it didn't fit the story highly partisan line prosecutors needed to tell. Where Supreme Court precedence was ignored by activist judges. Tomorrow I will surrender to FPC Morgantown. I will no longer be Keonne Rodriguez inside that institution, instead I will be a number, 11404-511. But outside of those walls my name will be kept alive. My loving wife, my family, my friends, all of you who have supported #pardonsamourai will make sure of that. I know walking into that institution that the story doesn't end there. I maintain hope that President @realDonaldTrump is a fair man, a man of the people, who will see this prosecution for what it was: an anti innovation, anti american, attack on the rights and liberties of free people. I believe his team @AGPamBondi @EdMartinDOJ @DAGToddBlanche and others truly want to end the weaponization of the DOJ that the previous administration wielded so effectively. The framers of our Constitution gave the Executive the power to pardon for exactly this reason, to balance out and restore justice when no one else would. President Trump has proven he takes that power seriously. I believe he will continue to wield that power for good and pardon me and Bill. Keep up the noise. Thank you all for your support. See you on the other side.

Traces of Texas reader Shana Rogers graciously shared this photo of Austin's 6th street circa 1960. Shana's mom worked at the Texas beauty shop for years and Shana's earliest memory --- of an orange and white cat that used hang out --- is from the shop. Note the Driskill Hotel across the street.
Thank you, Shana. Really great!

@realEstateTrent Counter: if you build them too fast, and they are remote, poorly planned and don’t contribute to a better life, once the shine is off, people move on to the next shiny thing and these become blight.
English
Who cares!
We have a huge housing shortage issue in America, and the implications are massive.
Ugly.
Not ugly.
Just build them, and fast.

Whether it’s retail or apartments the recent trend of building boxes is horrible. Architecture and building design is a reflection of culture and currently culture is lacking in many places. Here is a recent apartment building being built in west Hartford Connecticut. Horrible design the completely lacks and effort to inspire. Many of these boxes are going up everywhere
