Friendly reminder that dishwashers made after 1995 or so are so water and energy efficient that even if you ran them twice fully loaded it would still use less water than handwashing the same load.

Fetterman’s new memoir details why he and Josh Shapiro no longer speak
“I sincerely wish him the best. He is a credit to the state and may one day be a credit to the country," Fetterman wrote. "Even if we no longer speak."

While I was at The Post, a group of us (hi @crampell.bsky.social!) made a tool that used third party grocery price data to track food inflation. It’s up, except for the eggs.
