β€œA jury in Nassau County awarded $954,000 to a longtime employee of Stony Brook University Hospital Blood Bank. The employee, Donna Mirabella, said the hospital refused to accommodate her long COVID by letting her work remotely, ultimately forcing her out of a job she’d held for more than a decade.”

I enjoyed @bluesky.sboots.ca’s essay on becoming a β€œgenerative AI vegetarian”, and for a few reasons: it’s a great read, first and foremost, but also my GOODNESS is this well-sourced.

Sean pulls together many, many threads here; always grateful for a map like this.

Costco CEO says any tariff refunds it gets will flow back to members through 'lower prices and better values' Costco challenges the US government over IEEPA tariffs, with CEO Ron Vachris pledging to pass refund benefits to members.

Costco is now demanding that Trump pay them back for his tariffs so they can refund all of their customers.

Yup, mostly how often name recognition tips people to vote for someone (looking at you Raj) but also the crazy amount of outside of Illinois money that is funding so much of it. Then add the negative TV ads from sketchy PAC funds. @chicago.suntimes.com has a great tool to look up candidate info.

Ben Brown Pitch-Designed a Sinker Over the Offseason The Chicago Cubs right-hander is poised to turn the corner with a new weapon at his disposal.

Great insights from @davidlaurila.bsky.social on Ben Brown's new sinker. Clay Holmes is the perfect guy for him to have been talking to. Whatever the differences between them, there are some important similarities, too. blogs.fangraphs.com/ben-brown-pi...

I just donated to #JulianaStratton for Senate. If you are in Illinois and haven't checked her out before the primary, it's well worth your time. She is the most progressive choice available in the race.
