He built Michigan's Medicaid work requirement system. Now he's warning other states Michigan's health director spent a year and $30 million building a work requirements system for Medicaid. The problems he encountered have him worried now that 40 states must do the same by 2027.

Bad parenting award 👍: let my 6-year-old watch a few minutes of Jaws because he was begging me because it’s rated PG. Then came the gore, and I shut it off. He got mad because he just thought it was boring. Meanwhile, Harry Potter is PG-13. The movie ratings system is… something else.

I love this app for places with spotty internet, or on planes when I don’t want to pay for WiFi.

Just saw the email - pumped to check it out.

Ghost 6.0 Welcome to the social web. Networked publishing, native analytics, and $100M earned by indie publishers.

Super excited to check out Ghost 6.0. Ghost 6.0

A black plastic storage bin with wheels is placed on a driveway, holding a tan cooler labeled "SHITI."

Had to pull over for this one. Battle Ground, WA.

A metal pier extends over a calm lake, reflecting a forest of tall trees under a clear blue sky.

Early bird, etc.

POLITICO compiled a list of all the Washington Post staffers who have left in the past eight months. It’s at least a hundred names, many of them among the biggest names in journalism. This is the fastest erosion of a major outlet ever.

Thanks, I’m in Portland as well and will check them out.

Anyone ever had a seismic retrofit done on their home? If so, can we chat?

When is Ghost 6.0 being released?

A pint of McConnell’s Sweet Cream Caramel Brownie ice cream.

A beloved brand that’s been around for decades, I only just decided to see if it’s really worth the price. Pretty good! Maybe my new hide-it-from-the-kids, once-in-awhile sweet treat.

I’m also watching. I’m a little behind, though.

One of the more annoying things about life in Oregon is that you can’t buy liquor at the grocery store. Many liquor stores close at 8 p.m., and some as early as 5 p.m., even on weekends. I don’t drink a lot, but it’s frustrating having to make a special trip or running out of something after hours.

Just called a coworker on the phone instead of first checking to see if they were available on Teams or sending an email. Even though I still had to leave them a voicemail, it felt more human. I wonder if they will return my call or if they’ll email me. We could be phonepals.

A broken microwave plate with two strips of cooked bacon lies inside a microwave.

My microwave finally got so upset with me for eating veggie bacon that it destroyed a plate.

How did you share two links in one post?

Two people stand on a scenic overlook with one holding an umbrella, gazing at a cityscape surrounded by greenery under a clear sky.

I was picnicking with my daughter at Pittock Mansion when we suddenly found ourselves on the set of a movie. I managed to snap a few photos and liked this one the most.

Why do some reports say $66M to Oregon?

BREAKING NEWS: Oregon and 8 other states secured $720 million nationwide from opioid drug makers, including $10.1 million for Oregon.

We just opened the Center for Addiction Treatment and Triage (CATT) in Washington County with opioid settlement money!

I am always so shocked when a person on the other end of a professional video call doesn’t have their background blurred and their bedroom is spotless. While we try to keep a pretty clean house, having two little kids always ensures a certain level of household chaos.

This is absolutely true. I have a 3,000 gallon rain cistern that fills up in winter here in the PNW. It’s enough to water ONE 8x4 raised bed via drip irrigation over the summer. This amount of food is barely supplemental to our dietary needs. The only real benefits are educational.
