Beloveds, prepare yourselves...
so after the maersk antares docks tonight, there will be no ships listed as inbound to the port of LA. at all. zero. few to the port of long beach next door, but, like, count em on one hand.

Port of LA alone usually processes ~800k TEUs a month; it has gone to ~zero.

It’s only getting much play in the trade/transport niche press. But pretty real product shortages beginning in mid-May or so are already locked in. They’re maybe a thousand miles out in the Pacific Ocean. Modern trade takes place in gargantuan container ships. There are very detailed records …

Well, gosh, I certainly hope JD Vance isn't lampooned as the "killed the Pope just to get a photo op" Vice President in the same way Liz Truss is lampooned as the "killed the Queen just to get a photo op" Prime Minister. That would be awful.

It is appalling how Very Serious Thinkers continue to say that maybe it's completely fine to be grabbed off the street and disappeared by the government if you were born in the wrong place or said the wrong thing or are suspected of having the wrong genitals because after all it polls well

Oh my god you want me to find "evidence" before putting someone in jail? Every time?? Do you have any idea how long that would take

It occurs to me a bunch of people are about to be new to poverty. I have some advice, if you want it.

1. This will be counterintuitive: Spend it while you've got it. Some money comes in, one way or another? Buy food. Buy tp, soap, shampoo, toothpaste. Socks, underwear. You'll thank yourself.

Some tips as someone who loves food, has a bunch of health-related food restrictions, and has been food insecure for ~3 years

1. If you can afford it, a Costco membership is the best possible investment in not starving. $5 rotisserie chicken + bulk frozen vegetables have gotten me through so much.

Remembering for some reason how surprised everyone was at how quickly and comprehensively the USSR disintegrated, like it had already rotted from the inside and all that was left was a facade that seemed impressive and enduring but was hollow as papier-mache.

As we gawk at the $250M Musk spent elect Trump, take a guess how long it took him to “earn” it back in the market?

It took just 15 minutes. I'm not kidding... 15 minutes. According to Bloomberg, his net worth soared by $8B just today.

That’s billionaire math for you—and it’s all of our problem.

one of my life hacks for avoiding assassination is not enriching myself through the ruination and enfeeblement of millions of people. So far so good!

The release of this news on the day someone assassinates a health insurance CEO is ridiculously on-the-nose. Sending 2024 back for a page one rewrite.
