It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

It is WILD (&fun) that the best hockey players in the world are playing this hard & physically on their mid-season break. NBA stars are jogging around, having a laugh at all-star. McDavid is getting knocked on his ass, dudes are throwing knuckles. How NHL owners signed off on this I don’t get 😂.

I voted for Trump. But when he said he wanted to let Netanyahu finish the job in Gaza, I didn't know that he meant he was going let Netanyahu finish the job in Gaza.

Opinion | Donald Trump has moved his inauguration indoors. While this does not symbolize anything about our political era, it’s my job as a columnist to come up with a reason that it does.

They use the term to mean “b*itch” and “<ethic/racial slur>”. That is quite literally its meaning.

I'm a believer in smart policy, but all the finger-pointing in the LA firestorm about hydrant flows and LAFD budgets seems like arguing about the adequacy of Hiroshima's 1945 building code standards. It's a way to evade the big questions.

The DNC will choose a new chair Feb 1. But the names of the members who will vote is secret, even to *other members.* Until today. We are publishing a list of all 448 voting members of the DNC, to show how power is concentrated & flows inside the national party. Micah Sifry has the story.

Have been on Bluesky quite a bit the last two days (for info & resources) & it’s not social media that’s broken. I think it’s us that’s broken now. I’ll post about places ppl can donate because LA is in bad shape & my replies are full of “ummmm sounds like somebody’s never heard of Pompeii.”

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

The president-elect is attacking California's Democratic governor for fire hydrants running dry during the fires but the reason is that the water is being used. For all the fires www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

On 31 December 1995, Bill Watterson published the last ‘Calvin and Hobbes’ comic strip. It is a celebration of joy, friendship, and love, which is an appropriate reminder for kids of all ages at the start of every year. #goexploring #practicecourage #LIVElife

My three-year-old was watching CNN when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why did the nice man with the bad haircut who likes hoodies give money to Trump's inauguration?" And when I told her "either because he's afraid of Trump or because he is also a fascist" she started crying.

Syria is under martial law, South Korea was under martial law last week, Trump has proposed prosecuting January 6th investigators, and the FBI is warning that China is actively hacking the text messages of millions of unwitting Americans. Here's why our lead story is about a dead CEO.
