as it turns out this is more of a won't.
your average espresso martini is at least four ounces of liquid you could get half a scoop of normal protein powder no problem.
honestly this would be really easy to do even with off the shelf thick-ass whey protein powder.
me: ew disgusting
also me: i bet i could make that
Zander I'm not sure we should be restarting the war on protein
seriously it's not even close oh my GOD i'm hungry.
i haven't seen the ipsos tracker (some places had support close to 40%), but not looking good.
The data economy has made us dumber in ways that also make us vulnerable to authoritarian takover. We are have become both cynical and gullible in the sense we think we are too jaded be fooled and as a result are tricked more easily www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Lol chaos reigns
A decade ago, posting something like this would’ve gotten Ogles expelled from the House. Now, it’s barely even covered as news.
wow.
wait NC law is pretty clear about open records...someone will most likely sue for this.
JCSU is in Charlotte. If you can pick up free media there, which is a little easier because none of the local tv stations are owned & operated by the national networks, you could get at over 350,000 South Carolina households.
You know I love a graph and you know I love Kabir.
oh yes. yes that will do it.
BofA has deep ties to UNC Charlotte I'm sure if one of their analysts wanted to talk to any of their faculty it could be arranged.
this woman could make an annual contribution of maybe 30k to any public university in the country and the provost would make it known that whenever she calls any faculty member they pick up the phone.
they don't even have to hire them a lot of people will just tell them things for free
I think govts should be thinking about contracting from a sovereignty perspective, not just efficiency.
This matters in three ways. First, the Abundance-adjacent debate on state capacity need to consider how contractors undermine the ability to do stuff.

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence
Watching this guy makes me yearn for the comparably steady, inerrant leadership of my favorite political philosopher, Donald H. Rumsfeld.
It’s international women’s day, as reminder that proportional representation alone isn’t cool, proportional representation with a gender equality rule and parties that are entrepreneurial is what’s cool
Will this new Iran war be a quick success or a prolonged engagement with declining support? By the initial polls, more people oppose the new war than support it, with quite a few undecided. That’s not a position of strength with public opinion.

They also do a lot of lobbying in Israel to crack down on illegal importation of Iranian pistachios through Turkey.
Competition. Iran is a huge pistachio producer, but California overtook them under tariffs & sanctions. The JCPOA was a huge threat to Big Pistachio.
Fun quirk of interest group politics: the American pistachio industry is one of the biggest corporate cheerleaders for aggression against Iran.
It’s not even the economy. As wars go on, support for them declines.
Yeah it started in like…Kansas? Right?
