I feel like it’s totally okay to get together with the boys and drink some frosty ones and talk about how impressive Kate Bush is

How does one become that malignant in only 37 years?
This is good reporting and all that but here's the thing I learned the other day: Bill Pulte, the 50-year-mortgage dude and the guy who keeps pulling the mortgage docs of Trump's enemies is only 37 years old.

Spoiler alert: that's not why.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

This reminds me of when my son was 8, and he and I sat around weighing pennies to find out exactly when they switched from copper to copper-plated zinc. He got really excited and said he was going to tell his teacher about it and I was thinking maybe don't tell her Daddy has a .1 gram scale?
After 230 years, the US Mint has ended production of new pennies. One of the very few things that incompetent stopped clock in the White House has gotten accidentally right. [apnews.com]
US Mint presses final pennies as production ends after more than 230 years
The U.S. has ended production of the penny. The last 1-cent coins were made Wednesday at the mint in Philadelphia.
