Trump's tariffs have cost Michigan $5,619 per household — higher than every other state — just so Trump can play his little vanity games. Rogers will never call this out because he's corrupt and a coward.

“Ideologically aligned against the notions of ‘quality’” is the most succinct way to put it. AI is, at its core, an amplifier. If the user lacks critical thinking skills, that will be abundantly clear in their AI outputs. (Also, I must plug Pavel’s excellent newsletter, linked.)

We could eliminate $7 billion in medical debt with the $70 million they spent to beat me in the primary. Those same corporations and special interests are trying to buy the seat for Mike Rogers now. In November we teach them once and for all: Michigan is not for sale.

Dang. My memories of summer ‘96 and ‘97 include a lot of listening to and watching CWS games. Attended a few of the regionals in BR. Especially ‘97. My late grandfather loved LSU beating Bama in the final. RIP Skip.

AOC: Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We're grown adults with mortgages and kids, and that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us and we're taking the reins

Agreed! Just another example of tricking two smaller groups into believing that they are at odds with each other so they are distracted from the larger more powerful entity that is actually the problem.

Please be on the lookout for local radio social media posts saying you can drop hazardous waste off at our facility. Ingham County can accept that material, we are not authorized to do so. It appears to have been an AI written piece that got the locations wrong.

Growing up in the Deep South I always told myself “I like the heat and humidity, actually”. The longer I’ve been away tho, the more I realize ignorance is bliss. It was 50°F here in the upper Midwest this morning and I was loving it.

Data centers should be charged 2-3x the rate for electricity, and residents should be charged greatly reduced rates wherever they exist. Data centers must be zoned outside of all residential and public commerce areas and subject to all environmental impact report requirements & regulations.
