🌡️ Mostly sunny and warmer with a high near 70° in Denver (record: 77°, 1989), and a bit breezier with 20-30 mph gusts in the afternoon.

🌤️ Similar tomorrow but less windy, before a brief cooldown on Wednesday. No meaningful rain or snow chances this week.

Denver’s got a better chance of hitting 80° than getting snow over the next two weeks. Yikes.

Trump is going to cancel Juneteenth.

I understand that there are a lot of folks on the left who instinctively recoil from religious language, and with good reason given its use by the right.

But please listen to this, and focus on how he's trying to realign "Christian values" so they align with and advance progressive policy goals.

American Hi-Fi on this is wild. Can't wait for the kids to discover "Flavour of the Week", and then fall backwards into discovering Veruca Salt.

This class has very few group meetings and is structured to give space for the writer to work on whatever they feel their project needs, but if you're looking for something with more group support I've pitched a more craft-focused class called "Fall Back in Love with Your Manuscript"—

We'll also work together to craft a plan for building (and protecting) a writing process that fits with your life and will let you carry the momentum of the class onwards after it ends

From Novel Pages to First Draft: Finish Your Manuscript | Writers.com Get one-to-one feedback on up to 50,000 words of a draft, write or revise 12,000 more, and set yourself up to have a polished draft.

Folks! I am teaching my novel-writing class again starting May 6th! Do you have a big chunk of a novel and want a class structure within which to either regain momentum or start revisions? I'll read 50k words of yours, meet to talk about them, & give feedback on 12k more over the course of 10 weeks

anyone with energy left wanna quote tweet with snow pack in the Rockies?

A weather chart from January shows record low snow total years in Salt Lake City from KSL Weather. “#1 2025-2026 = 0.1 inch” “#2 1933-1934 = 14.3 inches” “#3 2014-2015 = 15.4 inches”

I’m sure this will be fine. 🫠 (SLC snow totals from January, and no, it hasn’t gotten much better.)

Early signs of historic March heatwave for the Southwestern U.S.? (Not what we need...) - YouTube The latest in a recurring series of live, virtual, & interactive #weather and #climate-focused "office hours" hosted by Dr. Daniel Swain. 3/9/2026 topic: I'l...

I'll have a livestream to discuss early indications on Tuesday (Mar 10 at 3pm PT) and then likely also a new Weather West post later this week. Stay tuned...

Map snapshot depicting the predicted relative anomalousness of 500mb GPH from the ECMWF ensemble over the Western U.S. in about a week from now. A large anomalous ridge, featuring a huge region of bright orange and red colors (depicting extremely high positive GPH anomalies) is centered right in the middle of the map.

Current indications are that late spring or even mid-summer-like (in some places) heat will arrive and persist for a fairly extended duration across a wide swath of the American West, centered on the Four Corners to Southern CA region. This will induce rapid melt of remaining snowpack.

It looks like whatever is growing on Trump’s neck

Every middle school and high school science teacher in the early 2000s really said to themselves "you know what these kids need... more anxiety" and popped that movie into the VCR.

Super Bowl LX MVP Kenneth Walker is signing with the Kansas City Chiefs, sources tell The Athletic.

He's got the record to back this statement up too. He's not just pandering, if you could even call it that considering this is Texas.

Kind of weird when you can watch the global market collectively go "oh shit he is that crazy".

Cont: "Amazon Warehouse Associate $47,520 I've been here for a little over ten years and make the average amount for entry-level workers at the company. After three years, you basically max out. You don't make much more. Most of the raises that Amazon will give you, regardless of your tenure with the company, are inflation raises. I have to work mandatory overtime from the end of November until the New Year. And then you have Amazon Prime. In July, there's one week of mandatory overtime for Prime Day, then there's Prime Big Deal Days in October. So all those mandatory-overtime hours, 55 hours a week for three months, are included in my salary. Consultant $17,000,000 $9.5 million from consulting fees $7.5 million in stock in companies that went public The big-picture way that I make my money is consulting; that work covers my day-to-day. Separate from that, I had stock in a couple of companies that went public. Because I made money later in life, my tastes and needs are a lot simpler. I don't spend money on things like having multiple homes, or flying private, or watches, or boats. I make enough money that I do what I want and I don't think about it. I also don't believe in leaving my kids a crazy amount of money because everyone I know who has that is fucked up, so why would I do that to them?"

Screenshot of four different jobs from the NY Mag feature about what people make in NYC: "Home Health Aide $23,000 I've been a home health aide for ten years. My main patient last year was in Brooklyn. I spent most of my time taking care of her. I worked two days a week, and I was being paid for 13 hours of work each day - my agency, Loyal Home Care, budgets eight hours of sleep and three hours for mealtimes into our wages. But I was basically working 24 hours a day. She was active, and I was worried she would fall, so I would watch her all day and night. This is a pretty common experience for health aides. The agency can deny our overtime, but you can't deny a patient. When they say, "Oh, I need a drink of water; I need to use the bathroom," how could you possibly say "no" to them? Bronx Day-Care Worker $31,000 $16,600 from day-care profits $14,400 from trainings and consulting Last year, I lost a lot of kids. I live in the Bronx, and a bunch of families in my neighborhood lost their child-care vouchers. We're talking about people who make as much as I do; most of the moms I work with are home health aides. They can't afford full-time child care. If I have 16 kids, I can pay myself for 40 hours of work. But last year, I didn't, and obviously I'm still doing the same amount of work. I've been running the day care out of my home for more than seven years. It's a profession I entered out of necessity and have stayed in out of passion. I pay for everything - food, cleaning supplies, toys - and we have to meet the same requirements as a large company in terms of paying for liability insurance, which can feel pointless in this industry. I mean, if something happens to one of my children, I lose my license. End of story."

It's all so clear
