If I told you one year ago that a future president was going to: * Impose 30% tariffs on the largest US trading partners * Threaten to fire the Fed chair * Provide weapons for a war against Russia And stocks would close HIGHER on the news, would you have believed me?

I have now twice accidentally clicked on the Meta AI button on Facebook posts. First post was about my local weather, and it gave me a forecast for a city 700 miles away. Second was today, when a random baseball post returned information that was more than a full season out of date.

Honestly, if you work in oil markets, pour yourself a double tonight, you've earned it.

18 eggs at my local Stop & Shop, $10.49. It was $8.19 yesterday morning. Price of eggs went up 28% in 24 hours.

Newly posted at my local grocery store. Price is up almost 10% just since last Sunday. (It broke $10 early last year, so could be worse, but still.) #eggflation

Today of all days ... this FAA advisory does not mean what you think it means. (They might've considered the optics of this one, possibly, before posting.)

Am I a mature, serious individual? Yes I am. Did I also stand 30 minutes in 28-degree weather for the chance to take a horsey ride around my local downtown? Yes, yes I did. (What. The kid really wanted to ride.)

Well geez I guess I’ve finally arrived in my career. (This is what greeted me elsewhere this morning.)
