Would today's bounce have anything to do with 1.4million federal employees getting back paid last Friday and 6 weeks of retirement contributions hitting index funds today?

We are going to need a bigger basket for all our eggs.

Is there a chart that shows the dot com companies vs rest of market runup to the bubble burst?

Every accusation is an admission, Sleepy Don.

Unless the demand is the job replacing tech?

This guy consistently posts songs with incredible lyrics mere hours after events unfurl. This was a good one.

Kudos to the bird that managed to shit an image of itself onto this bloke's car.

A female Western Gull was recorded riding 150km in a garbage truck from San Francisco to a compost facility in Central CA, probably to forage. TWICE. An innovator, an icon, a genius.

This is one of my favorite @waterbirdsociety.bsky.social papers I've ever handled as managing editor #ornithology

I use dish soap and my fingers to gently clean the lenses then blow the remaining water spots off with one of these. Similar to cleaning a telescope lens.

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Prior to 1948 productivity increase was nearly equally compensated with rising wages. Since 1973, as productivity continues to increase, wages are more and more stagnated.

Yeah, there needs be better county funding and regional partnership.

Seems like most of the transportation dollars go to areas that company lobbyists advocated for, while working class communities get the crumbs.

Just feeling bitter about the lack of commute options in the South Sound. The commuter train isn’t the problem, it’s getting to it. If you live in dt Tacoma then it’s fine, but very few people live on the Link. Taking buses to the train station and then connecting in Seattle takes me almost 2 hrs.

Meanwhile Tacoma may get service in 2035, but it keeps getting pushed back. I'm glad rich Microsoft peeps can ride to the park now. I was worried they would have to drive a few minutes on their new highways.

I read your book "The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking)" and it was one of the best astrophysics books I've read. I especially liked how you intertwined your personal narrative and some of the struggles you faced.
