Awesome timelapse of Juneau, Alaska. And it's not even tourist season yet... #alaska #juneau

The history of tipping in the US traces back to the Civil War. It’s disturbing. I wish I could remember the name of the podcast (was tied to Marketplace) where I first learned about this history.

Fuck that! I have no interest in giving up rights my mother and grandmothers fought for. I am not property.

Lithuanians in Vilnius paid more respects to the 4 American troops who died in Lithuania than Donald Trump…who ran off to go golfing.

Why does he shake his head, like he is saying no, when he speaks? Maybe because he knows this is all utter bullshit?!

Completely agree! Cattle are designed to digest grass but we fatten them up on corn in feedlots. We have one recall after another. And now we are gutting the FDA.

Headline that reads FDA planning for fewer food and drug inspections due to layoffs, officials say

I should follow up with Congress could fix this but I have serious doubts that they will take action.

The complete lack of basic economics is astounding! This is going to hurt so many. The US losing it’s leadership role in the economy will have so many ripple effects throughout the US and globally.

Millions of you, around the world, have put the lessons I wrote in #OnTyranny in late 2016 to good use. It has been humbling to learn how from courageous and creative dissenters, protestors, and oppositionists. I was honored when John Lithgow volunteered to read them aloud.

Hugs to all the decent people who have remained Humane throughout this train wreck. We have strength in our numbers and our voices. They know it. And they are afraid of us. Let us not disappoint by maintaining our power and preserving our freedom. They can expect us.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

Rule of law, stable institutions, an independent central bank, and a functioning democracy create the environment for a healthy and robust economy. It is all under attack at the moment.

I was given 3 hours to get out of my office when the Dunleavy administration came in. That was as a difficult morning for both myself and other staff. I can’t imagine trying to get out of a house in 3 hours.

Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

This is not normal. This is not ok. They are not federal civil servants with the requirements to protect this sensitive information. DOGE is not a real entity. Period. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

What?! So, did they not listen or didn’t want to believe it would come to pass? This is exactly what was promised. The word salad is just trying to hide that they were complicit. Baffle with bullshit! Unfortunately, this is so often what economists do.

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

The State can’t fill positions. Remaining staff try to cover the workload. Unvetted process changes, especially in administrative work, is increasing the workload further. People are burning out. But nothing to see here! Move along!! www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

Reporting From Alaska- Dunleavy's office says no salary study records were 'tossed.' They just weren't retained.

Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s PR man objects to a headline that appeared here on January 10: “Dunleavy claims salary study drafts have been tossed, so they are not public records.” No records have been toss...

My friend spends his time plugged into a chemo bulb arguing with his insurance companies. He is terminal. I find the whole idea that this is how he has to spend his time incredibly disgusting and disturbing. Healthcare should not be for profit. PERIOD. www.nbcnews.com/news/investi...

'Would he have lived?' When insurance companies deny cancer care to patients

Health insurers are increasingly interfering in care, an NBC News investigation found. Doctors say the stakes are highest in cancer care, when delays can be the difference between life and death.
