fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=1Z6l2 Whether or not wage growth is totally flat, the cost of rent has absolutely not been. Look at the divergence of these two lines and it’s extremely clear why so many people are rent burdened.

The economy was real bad in 2008, that's a fact, but also the cost of living, and specifically the cost of RENT was much less onerous. I'd bet that there's a decent segment of the population that is living significantly more precarious lives than they would have under 2008 conditions.

Here's a map of how iron ore mined in Minnesota moves (the red lines). Note the markers for where steel facilities are located, they're where they are because you have to move the stuff on ships. There are no steel mills in Iowa of any size because you can't get the fucking stuff it's made of there

Haha probably that exact one, it had a name which in retrospect is obvious but at the time seemed innocuous: Ladybug Espresso.

Not related to the point you were making, just interesting

Huh according to Google an average cow has about 200-250 usable kg of meat, so if you ate only beef an average cow would feed about one and a half Americans meat diet for an entire year. Interesting

I really don't understand how this was allowed to happen. I guess they were just winging it? The funniest part is they did a ton of reshoots on the final one so the original state was probably even worse!

Thanks to the way the content creator pyramid works, for every woman who made a modest income as a trad wife influencer, there are thousands of women who never got traction. Their stories are undoubtably even more depressing. All of the surrender and none of the money.

I see, I’m not sure I agree, I think winning a super majority in 2028 so we can actually fix structural issues with our political system is more pressing. There won’t BE a 2032 without voting rights restoration and court packing.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

F.B.I. Shut Down Inquiry Into Top Ally of Senator Susan Collins

The inquiry was closed last year because senior bureau officials questioned the veracity of a campaign donor’s account, according to current and former officials.

Rubio is especially culpable for the death of USAID, which he previously championed. He more than anyone else had the power, the motive, and the understanding to save it, and he did nothing.

Tell them to eat shit or just ignore the attack entirely and talk about gas prices. I think your average American couldn’t give less of a shit about trans issues when gas is six dollars a gallon. You can make your opposition look stupid by simply focusing on other more salient issues

Also a 2% wealth tax! It would permanently change the structure of wealth distribution in this country and go a long way to resolving wealth inequality.
