But why would Porter and Van Hollen be the ones following a Shor memo. Neither of them is particularly supported by that crowd.

Just added this one to my list!
Noah is also a jerk who regularly tells his critics they have a variety of mental illnesses
I appreciate how he appears to be genuinely pissed about all of this and is honest about it. It’s refreshing.
I feel this because the only true religious experience I’ve had in my life was seeing the Digimon movie in theaters when I was 7
Our neighbor called George, Teddy this morning and unfortunately since I went with it that’s his new name. There is nothing that can be done.
alright, first issue is out for Forces of Production, Common Wealth's new monthly newsletter on the US supply side, from a macro point of view!

I'm excited to announce I'm doing a new Bloomberg column about the business of fashion. The first column is about how we can re-shore US garment manufacturing. Instead of mass deportations and raising tariffs, I argue the government should move the industry upstream:

I thought the same thing when I saw that quote. I read that book in undergrad and it’s one of those books that sticks with you long after you finish it.
Personally, I’m a huge fan of Louisiana Purchase, Alaska. It’s gorgeous!
Statement on Ford Plant Visit from VP Laura Dickerson, Ford Department Director
🧵 The autoworker at the Dearborn Truck Plant is a proud member of a strong and fighting union—the UAW. He believes in freedom of speech, a principle we wholeheartedly embrace, and we stand with our membership in protecting their voice on the job.
Instead of retreating into facile cynicism about the safety net and regulatory state, people on the left should be trying to occupy the bureaucracy at the state, local, and, after the MAGA putschists are finally expelled from power, federal level—not simply because we need good people in those jobs, but because enough good people in any given department can change its internal culture for the better. A lot depends, for example, on whether state and local transportation departments are staffed by car-brained traffic engineers or planners who are genuinely invested in walkability and developing viable mass transit networks. Just as much hinges on whether state health agencies are staffed by people with a genuine commitment to the cause of universal healthcare, even in the face of brutal federal Medicaid cuts. There’s another reason for occupying the bureaucracy, too. For a movement that wants to transform the state, there is tremendous value in understanding how policy implementation and institutional change happens on a granular level. If you spend some time working inside the bureaucracy and you keep your eyes open, you can learn a lot about the points of leverage that leftist politicians and outside advocacy groups can press to their advantage. On the flipside, you can also learn a great deal about the tradeoffs associated with certain approaches and how well-intentioned but undercooked policy initiatives can produce unintended consequences. These are all important lessons for anyone trying to push any level of government in a more humane direction. But they’re especially important lessons for leftist officials who have ambitious agendas, a finite amount of time in which to implement them, and little room for error.

His whole performance during the Tham Luang cave rescue should have been a wake up call
Gallaudet has also done a really nice job with infill development opportunities.
I don’t want to pick one so here are a few of my favorite finales:
The Leftovers
Avatar: The Last Airbender
You’re the Worst
This is fun. Mine would be in no particular order:
The Martian
The Social Network
Palm Springs
Interstellar
Wedding Crashers
The two most rewatchable films of all time are IMO The Fugitive and Groundhog Day
the orlando airport was specifically designed with me in mind to drive me mad
Wrote for @heatmap.news with @narayansub.bsky.social about a largely forgotten effort at American energy industrial policy—the Energy Security Act of 1980—and the lessons it holds for new efforts today: heatmap.news/ideas/energy...
Many of us are actively working on these exact issues. Meanwhile, the current DOE’s all-out assault on climate policy has led to the cancellation of hundreds of large-scale demonstration projects in the very sectors you mention.
Do you think Silver is accurately characterizing the views of the people he’s describing?
I can’t think of anything better than sitting directly next to a smelly, sweaty individual that for some reason determined the airport was the appropriate place for a workout
They are just getting terrible advice and it keeps the money train going because they keep coming back because of the terrible advice — of course it’s not effective!
Yep. There’s this weird media aversion to calling this out. If you want women to like you be an actual likable person. I don’t deny that there’s a loneliness problem amongst some young men.. BUT that’s explicitly because of the toxic influencers they choose to base their behavior/personalities on.
And look if any group was going to send us back to subsistence level agriculture for 500 years it’s the beautiful boaters
And the key word is industry because people are increasingly making money off of doing it
Oh you want to see my Spotify wrapped?
Well I want an essay about the most embarrassing thing you’ve ever done
Fucking sickos..
The problem with Matt’s brand of politics is its whole basis is that it’s bad for left wing folks to popularize things that upset “median voters” even if the things those voters believe are bad.
But when that becomes your all encompassing focus — you just end up also embracing shitty views
Today, DOE renamed the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), one of the crown jewels of U.S. science and engineering for renewable energy, the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR). We should be reinvesting in our world-leading national labs not renaming them. www.nrel.gov/news/detail/...
I coordinated a farmers market for a few years and man let me tell you.. the DRAMA that I dealt with
Incredible stuff here:
“If the Mamdani administration lets them continue to turn our neighborhoods into playgrounds in the middle of streets and wage war on drivers, it will be a disaster for public safety, quality of life and basic common sense,”
