full disclosure im very much a train girlie (went to danbury railroad museum on my bday last year lol) but unrelated to love of railroads etc, I'd much rather the slower option than like, the abject misery of air travel. also, scenery! history! badass sounds!

just want to give a shout out to @amtrak.com for being awesome. Our NY to FL train was very delayed but everyone on the train was incredibly kind and accommodating. we also received a travel voucher as an apology. this level of service is so much different than how airlines would handle this.

Team Trump Was on 'F-cking Warpath' to Kill Story About Salacious Letter to Epstein Donald Trump's team was desperate to kill a Wall Street Journal story about Trump writing a salacious letter to Jeffrey Epstein in the early 2000s.

“One administration official describes the White House as having been ‘on a fucking warpath’ in its pressure campaign against the conservative newspaper, working different contacts and angles in an attempt to get the outlet to drop the story.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

"I was sitting on a tugboat 20 miles south of the Keys, waiting for my guide, Gator, to recover from a bender just long enough to get our rig close to a doubloon-filled wreck named Alma, for my dive. As the sun bore down, Gator woke to tell a tale that would send me on a yearslong quest TKTKTK"

Subject:
PITCH: Epstein’s Client List
Body:
Hi, [editor], I've always liked [esoteric magazine]'s approach to [random thing], and I have a story on haunted whale's milk that's both in keeling with your ethos--that will grip your readers and result in extensive social media play. My pitch is below.

Any freelancer who's not putting "Epstein's client list" in the subject of pitch emails that have nothing whatsoever to do with Epstein is missing out on a great opportunity to increase pitch email open rates. It's finally the time to shop around that idea on haunted whale's milk, people!

If you Google women's midlife crisis much that comes up is about changing hormones bla bla but like IDK, can't a girl just decide that the only way to fill an existential void is with a loud AF muscle car?

everything is horrible so we gotta focus on the simple joys... like discovering after 15 years of friendship that you and one of your besties have a mutual enemy--and didn't realize this until like now. just had this experience this am and it felt as satisfying as opening a la croix

So...WaPo with the "viewed as" and "many consider" with this. Why not just call his use of this word what it is?

Can someone explain to me in simple terms whether the passage of the budget bill means pre-emptive tax credits for exchange health insurance will end? Bc if so literally so many independent contractors and freelancers and small biz owners are so screwed with health insurance bills.
