Photo of a cafe table made from window shutters and iron supports
Something I appreciate about Thailand is that particle board furniture hasn't really arrived here.
All the furniture is solid wood and heavy as hell.
The table at the cafe is made from old apparently indestructible window shutters.
Show us the current set, Shana!
SCREW THAT CORNBALL NONSENSE I JUST SAID! THAT MAN RUSNAK GOT ICE IN HIS VEINS - FINISH THEM!!
CONCACAF is never not like this. Yes, it's enraging.
But if you don't conceed a goal on the first corner of the match, it's an entirely different game and series.
That's two set piece goals surrendered in rougly 120 minutes against Tigres.
Don't like that.
PSA: if you a happen to be in Manchester, UK (or have a way of being their digitally 😉), the match is available on CONCACAF's YouTube Channel.
Lets' go VAR! 1-0 to Dem Boys in Green!
What they got that poor baby bringing donuts to work like an intern? 😭😭😭
Bro sometimes you need to embrace that not knowing about these fools out there is a gift
This is the fruit of my weekend misery.

The most powerful person on the planet seems lack a sense of object permanence.
He rages on Truth Social deep into the night but somehow expects us to forget the nuttery the next day.
We've normalized it but it's anything but normal.

To be clear, I think Niko is one million percent correct
Best in Michigan maybe
Niko apparently still has strong feelings about lineup choices away at Tigres and @ari.lobbingscorchers.com was just egging him on

So really, Detroit automakers don't GAF about the people at the lower end of the income scale because fancier cars have higher margins.
But the government is charging those same people the automakers have foresaken tariffs that help keep Detroit in business.
Why did you do this to me, Anne?!
We tariff Chinese cars that are better and cheaper than their US counterparts to protect them from competition.
Okay fine, I kept reading and another big part of the answer is also tariff related and buried in paragraph twenty-three.
China makes the cars the author is talking about but US tariffs keep them out of the market.
I stopped reading when the author explained that car repair costs rose 15% last year due to "the complexity of modern sensors and labor shortages" rather than citing the disastrous impact of tariffs on imported parts.
I spent some time today reading through the 130+ posts the President made on Truth Social from April 5-12.
Good Lord.
I wouldn't trust someone who posted like that to wash my windows.
I agree with the sentiment and end result here but the claim that "rumors aren't publishable" by media doesn't withstand scrutiny.
The Pope "is WEAK on crime" is such a mind-numbingly stupid argument for a grown man to make
The U.S. military said on Sunday that it would blockade any ships “entering or departing Iranian ports and coastal areas,” but said it would allow other ships to transit the Strait of Hormuz, hours after President Trump had said the United States would fully block the economically vital waterway. The blockade on Iranian ports would begin on Monday at 10 a.m. Eastern time, U.S. Central Command said in a statement posted on social media, adding that U.S. “forces will not impede freedom of navigation for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports.”
The Pentagon spent the day turning the President's ramblings on social media into a more coherent policy —an escalation that will likely end the one week-old (supposed fourteen day) ceasefire.

These was no newsletter this weekend because life was lifing on me.
But here's an earlier edition where I made the case for breaking up with Chrome and Google Search.

I promise you he hasn't given that possibility a second of thought — not a second
I haven’t yet met anyone who uses genAI regularly who doesn’t think they use it smartly and ethically. What are the chances?
Seven matches into the season...
The US President is now threatening to blockade the body of water he was just negotiating to reopen because his poorly planned war caused it to close.
They're blockading their own blockade.
Now is a great time to dump Chrome and Google Search.
Many great alternatives for each exist that won't serve you ads from scammers or drown you in AI slop results.
The operating heuristic for the current moment is that things will always be the stupidest version of what they can be. This has yet to be shown to be a suboptimal organizing principle.
