This isn’t really new, Dem politicians have suggested varying levels of cut-and-raise for years. Wake me when someone besides Sanders says we should go back to the tax rates of the 1950s. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/19/b...

This makes me so f’ing angry. “We fund students not systems,” is the sort of bumper sticker philosophy I expect from Republicans. They don’t care how many students they hurt as long as they hurt teachers’ unions. Schools are not supposed to BE in the “free market.”So dumb. apple.news/AADZmuL--So6...
So far, the grocery won’t take it and I can’t open a bank account to transfer the “value” of my Bit-Arrency into it. The teller at the bank said it “wasn’t real.” Pfft! It’s as real as any AI video! What a luddite!
Isn’t it bonkers? I just walked by the Allbirds store in Seattle’s UVillage before seeing the story. I still just don’t get it.
I watched “Inside the Manosphere” so you don’t have to.
And I have thoughts. Hope you’ll read and subscribe (free).

I would like to announce that I am pivoting from a monetary user to an air-based currency. Instead of dollars I will now be paying all my bills with my new Bit-Airrency. I, too, expect to jump 400%.

Aww, I’m sorry to see this. I loved HR Pufnstuf & Lidsville. Esp Charles Nelson Reilly. The whole thing was wacky and seemed like I was watching stuff I wasn’t supposed to. I often wonder what the hell happened so that bonkers shows like those are no longer made. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/a...
Do Americans know that their Vice President was in Hungary campaigning for a Putin ally to be reelected, instead of in DC during a war in which Putin is helping Iran target Americans?
Bummer, but the guy I was going to run with is sick. I won’t be putting these very cool looking trail shoes to work today, then. I’ll lace up my daily trainers and loop Green Lake instead. A run will happen. Connecting with a new person will wait.
I would love to vote for her!
I started a newsletter using running as a framework to talk about an alternative to “manosphere.” My last post, I took my own advice and it worked out.

Oh yes! A few years ago someone handed me an oreo while I was drinking stout, and I have sought “dessert pairings” for beer ever since.
Actually…
You win! Worst take on the list!
No, this is a good take.
Wow, you really brought back my childhood tv viewing!
I’m kinda surprised to learn they thought their recruits could read.
I haven’t watched the show in years. But I may gather the kids around the screen for this.
I mean, if it were, that would be pretty awesome. I would ask for my birthday to be announced at the ballpark and stuff.
I write a weekly newsletter in which I offer my personal journey in running as a framework to talk about male culture. I’ve clearly not been alone in seeing how toxic shit is: warmcurrent.me/2026/04/07/m...
People are watching this still?
Don’t forget, it’s an election year and Hair Fuhrer is a drag on the party. Hopefully Congressional Republicans will be so afraid of losing their seats that they won’t fall in line with this budget.
Our Military, the greatest and most powerful (by far!) anywhere in the World, hasn’t even started destroying what’s left in Iran. Bridges next, then Electric Power Plants! New Regime leadership knows what has to be done, and has to be done, FAST! President DONALD J.TRUMP
Trump is committing war crimes in Iran and is threatening more and worse ones. His entire war strategy at this point is war crimes. A functional Congress would be far down the road of impeachment and removal.
My newsletter is a weekly first person journey against the influence of the manosphere. I use running as a framework to look at it. Dealing with a dearth of close friends is not easy for anyone. I share a gift link to a resource I like. Hope this is helpful. warmcurrent.me/2026/03/31/t...
the trump administration is selling this country wholesale to rapacious, extractive industries that will destroy our collective resources for private profit morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/breaking-t...
He really needs to find a line of work he’s good at. He reminds me of middle school boys who, while clever, were not half as smart as they were annoying. I wish for Ezra to disappear from the public consciousness.
PRESIDENT: "We should have a national database of all legal US gun owners."
CONSERVATIVES: "YOU CAN'T DO THAT! THAT IS UNAMERICAN!! YOU CAN'T TRACK AMERICAN CITIZENS!!! IT'S AGAINST OUR LIBERTY!!!!"
PRESIDENT: "We will have a national database of all legal US voters."
CONSERVATIVES: [yawn]
