Years ago I wanted to run for something on this, and someone at Run For Something said they never heard of a pro-business dem… and I never heard from them again (and I never ran for something)… countrywide, small businesses need a leg up to be able to compete - this needs to be adopted everywhere.

No, Orioles star Colton Cowser is not afraid of shrimp. Yes, this is a real headline. Under his signature Henderson wrote that β€˜Cowser is afraid of shrimp’

So now that Florida has outlawed flouride in public water Nestle can sell a 12oz bottled water with Flouride added for $3 called PureLife+. Hell- they could call it a medical-grade water and charge $300 at the ER! Business!

At its core, #MayDay is about solidarity.

Workers around the globe are taking action this International Workers’ Day to stand up to the billionaires who are threatening our rights and freedoms, and America’s unions are standing with them in solidarity.

You no longer need a cable subscription to watch the Orioles and Nationals play on MASN.

Whew, it’s about damn time.

The part that resonated most with me is to not speak if you don’t know what you’re talking about. It seems that talking out of your ass to answer things you don’t understand is a modern sign of β€œstrength” - scary. Also algorithmic feeds should be illegal for kids. A+ video.

Saturdays are for hikes, and luckily Maryland has the best trails.

A federal worker sent me audio of a call that HR did today with staff about "deferred resignation" agreements offered by DOGE ... I think this is pretty well understood by now but helps confirm what many suspect
The audio goes:
Employee: Lets say I accept the agreement tomorrow - you were to rescind the agreement and they were to stop paying me on Friday ... we would have no recourse available?
HR official: Yes... as the agreement is outlined that is absolutely correct

If you work for the federal government and are tempted to take Musk’s β€œbuyout” offer please know that you’re never going to see that money.

So the world's richest man spends a fortune backing Trump and is given the go-ahead to...

-Run an "efficiency" agency despite having billions in govt contracts

-Replace civil servants with his own cronies

-Gain access to sensitive Treasury payment systems

See the problem?

I’m anxious that I wont have enough time to stress tomorrow… I’ll lay in bed not sleeping for a couple hours. At least the quality of stress will be beyond reproach.
