Just an unbelievable, LeBron-esque chase down block by Samfordβs AJ Staton-McCray. Did not like the foul call here, this appeared to be all ball.

The IRS pulled in $3.18 for each dollar spent auditing the top 1%, and $6.29 for the top 0.1%.
Thereβs one reason and one reason only the GOP wants to defund the IRS: to protect their wealthy mega-donors.
All in all, the GOPβs IRS cuts will cost $40 billion in lost revenue.

official republican party position in arkansas and other states is that the children yearn for the mines
Starting today, young children no longer need work permits to get a job in Arkansas. arktimes.com/arkansas-blog/2β¦
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Permits are no longer required in Arkansas, but all state and federal laws remain in effect. The minimum working age is still 14. Enhanced penalties for child labor law violations were set by Act 687 of 2023.

Cheers to the woman at the ER with the brain bleed who, after being told she was being airlifted to a better equipped hospital, told the doctor 'I'm not getting no $100k bill for a helicopter, I'll drive myself or let me die.'
Take a bow, US healthcare.
Six-week fitness program update, just past the halfway mark: I'm down ~10-12 lbs and 4-5 points body fat %, which means I've *already* hit the goals for the six weeks. Still a long way to where I ultimately should be, though.
I miss oat milk creamer in my chai every morning.
Went to the coast last night to try experimenting with long exposures with my new @NikonUSA Z5... still learning but got this gem at least.

Luckily this is entirely offset by all the college basketball players who do not receive any salaries to play in a basketball tournament which generates tens of billions of dollars

.@Tejava_Tea This may sound crazy, but yesterday a 1 liter bottle of your superb tea fell off the top of my fridge, annihilated my iPhone on the counter, then crashed to my kitchen floor β yet did not break.
You could say the cost of my getting a new phone will be... steep. π
