I get sentimental once in a while. Like every week, at this point. Being nominated for a James Beard award is just melting me. I go back to people accusing me of making heirloom beans a thing just to cash in on the heirloom tomato trend. In a word: HA! www.jamesbeard.org/stories/2025...

Feels like all the “crisis of toy supply” articles do not help Americans understand that China’s economic powerhouses are currently robotics, EVs, smartphones, electronics. We don’t have to be like Trump and use paradigms from the 1980s! (Also American kids have far too many toys.)

I don't think it's being talked about enough that Trump is basing his tariff assaults on Peter Navarro, and Navaro's theories rest on the "research" of "Ron Varo" which is an economist he made up and cited for decades: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP-e...

The underlying ideology is different, but this isn't that different than when Mao ordered that all the sparrows be killed, which led to an upswing in pests that helped fuel China's Great Famine, in which maybe 50 million people died.

A FAFO moment: China just cut off the US's supply of critical minerals as retaliation for their trade sanctions. Which will upset the US weapons industry (and, sadly, electrification). Oops. cleantechnica.com/2025/04/05/c...

1. Stop assuming people announce all their activism on social media. 2. Stop demanding people announce all their activism on social media. 3. Stop deriding people for not announcing all their activism on social media. 4. Dunking on people on social media isn't activism and isn't praxis.
