This happened at the intersection by the Home Depot in Everett, Washington. There was increased activity in Everett through the day today.

Easy to follow guide from the British press

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers. Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself. Textbook corporate greed.

I, personally, look forward to the 220-team World Cup presented by Blackrock, hosted exclusively in the United States every six months and powered by Polymarket.

The real welfare queen in America is Jeff Bezos, worth $279 billion, who pays wages so low his workers rely on food stamps and Medicaid while he sailed on his $500 million yacht to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring because his tax rate is less than 1%.

The day after Colbert’s final show, CBS Radio News signs off as well. The news program that became famous as Edward R. Murrow reported live from London rooftops during the Blitz, now silenced. Good night, and good luck. And Fvck you CBS.

Particularly beautiful vibe in London tonight. Partly the clement weather, partly all the people wearing their marathon medals while taking in the sights, partly the queues waiting to be photographed with a red phone box outside Parliament, but mostly just London being a uniquely brilliant city…

I was on a panel with Leland years ago. Then we went to the airport straight after. Then we ended up on the same plane. So we swapped seats to keep talking. Then we had a long layover and had lunch together. And reader, Leland Melvin is EVERY FUCKING BIT as awesome and sweet as you think he is.

“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies—God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.” ~ Kurt Vonnegut

Isn’t today the day my American friends wake up, look at Bluesky and worry that they have somehow missed Mothers Day only to realize it comes a bit earlier in the UK. 😀

NATO did not "stay a little back, off the front lines." Danish, British and Estonian troops served in Helmand, and Canadian forces in Kandahar - the two most dangerous Afghan provinces. Denmark, UK, Estonia & Canada suffered amongst the highest per‑capita soldier death rates when defending the US.
