There's so much good stuff we need to build: Housing, Schools, Vehicles and Transit Infrastructure. But data centers are sucking up all the available capital investment and crowding out everything else. It's time to reevaluate our national priorities.

Tropical Storm Isaias is expected to strengthen into a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. The first hurricane of the Atlantic season has not formed this late for 121 years, when Theodore Roosevelt was President of the United States.

I love seeing Ted Lasso put strong women front and center. Complicated, funny, badass women taking up space and owning it. At this particular moment in America, it feels almost radical—and incredibly joyful—to watch.

Great piece framing the hazard landscape in this monster El Niño, a bit about some proactive governmental planning to stave off the worst of the harms, an urgent call to action for just-in-time interventions. Helps imagine a world in which the hard work of science yields sensible societal response.

Glad folks are appalled by photos of the "phone booth" cage under an awning, but pls understand: This IG report is likely part of a cover-up. Amnesty Int'l interviewed detainees EIGHT MONTHS AGO who said the cage was half this size (couldn't stand up), had no awning, w feet chained to the bottom.

The U.S. Mint had released a new $1 coin featuring the image of a simpleminded gargoyle. With inadvertent candor-through-incompetency it also commemorates the end of LIBERTY in 2026. That will probably be true if we don’t take the midterms.
