October jobs report canceled and November release delayed, BLS says Federal labor market data is a crucial part of understanding the U.S. economy โ€” and one of the pieces the Fed analyzes in considering interest rate moves.

The Epstein files are important, but not releasing the economic data for October is damning. The economy has completely tanked and the Trump government is refusing to and or incapable of carrying out its basic functions. share.google/e726OJJXXxry...

Who is going to shop at Amazon once AI takes all our jobs? Tech CEOs have been fond of writing love letters about generative AI, but they never seem to address the grim economic implications.

'...what happens to these companiesโ€™ bottom lines once consumers can no longer afford to buy their products because AI has taken their jobs? Well, Iโ€™m still waiting to hear CEOs offer a solution to that problem.'

A brilliant piece from @dwhitehouse.bsky.social in The Fence, featuring this gem
โ€˜Who was Coventry Cityโ€™s FA Cup-winning goalkeeper in 1987?โ€™, โ€˜Steve Ogrizovicโ€™, sheโ€™d respond, two words theyโ€™d receive at a cost of a pound with their underpants a hammock between their knees.

I just purchased a ticket to see @pattonoswalt.bsky.social at the Union Chapel in London. Booking through the venue meant no extra fees. Booking through Ticketmaster would have meant paying an extra 10% 'handling fee'. Every gig goer should do whatever they can to avoid Ticketmaster.

How much work can it possibly involve to restore a webpage or create a new one?

There have been 800 library closures nationally since 2010 โ€“ nearly a fifth of the total. In Essex, however, vigorous public campaigning stopped it. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™Œ

Happy "Microsoft trying to force CoPilot subs" day in the UK for all who celebrate.

(They just pinged me my renewal notice with it carefully worded to sound like a compulsory general price increase).

1) Go to your account page
2) Hit cancel
3) Change sub back.
