It’d be neat to live in a state that doesn’t continually punish people for being poor.

But I don’t. I live in Alabama. A state that has its policy directed differently. If you are hungry, the state feels you are the problem.

Donate to your local charities please. They do good work.

The one surefire way to get people to stop saying mean things about you is to send out a press release, insisting that they stop saying mean things about you.

Had lunch with my mom who mentioned the tv show Bonanza being from the 50’s and I told her it actually aired from 1959 to 1973 and I know that because I listen to a podcast where someone pretends to be a cowboy poet who hunts werewolves and also reviews Bonanza episodes, then there was a weird pause

My column from Monday. Alabama has some of the highest electricity rates in the South. Twinkle Cavanaugh did next to nothing to address that. But she did talk a lot about things like abortion and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and being a living Fox News chyron allowed a regulator to not regulate.
Goodbye to Twinkle Cavanaugh, the regulator who did little regulating | Alabama Reflector
The outgoing PSC president did little to address Alabama's high power prices. Instead, she ran on Republican identity politics

“Builder AI, once touted as a revolutionary AI startup backed by Microsoft, has collapsed into insolvency after revelations that its flagship no-code development platform was powered not by artificial intelligence—but by 700 human engineers in India.”
'700 Indian engineers posed as AI': The London startup that took Microsoft for a ride - BusinessToday
The unraveling began when creditor Viola Credit, which lent Builder.ai $50 million in 2023, seized $37 million from its accounts after the company defaulted.

Incredibly moving Justin Trudeau remarks:

"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people....Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us."

I have felt shame about hiding this feeling for decades. I’m so glad this skeeter was willing to speak up, and now I can be honest about it:

I know where Carmen Sandiego is, I have always known where Carmen Sandiego is, because she’s been hiding in my heart.
The reason there are so many music snobs is because people desperately don't want to admit that Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego by Rockapella is the best song ever written.

But you have to let go of your shame and be free.

TIL the British had a cultural/moral freakout over racy and horror movies, which — in one of the most British moves that the Britons ever Britoned — they termed the video nasties.
