They designed the packaging so you can't count how much you're using. The hard pack. The 12-pack. The 30-rack. Really smart people. Keeping you guessing. Keeping you hooked spw12.substack.com/p/i-am-an-ad...

The summer when the vertigo started. The month my career ended. I didn’t know what it was yet. It would take more than a year to find out.

Forty years of quitting and starting and quitting again. "I can quit. I do it all the time."

My dad spent his retirement drinking bad coffee and smoking Camels at a Whataburger in Harlingen Texas. I sat in the Starbucks across the street missing him. He would have hated everything about it.

My neurosurgeon had a treatment ladder. Pain meds first, then maybe PT, then injections, then surgery. I looked at that ladder and knew I couldn't stand on the first rung. So I asked about the second one instead. She lit up like she'd had a double espresso. Part Ten of The Sound That Changed

In 1975 my algebra teacher let us use a computer to check our homework. My answer was wrong. The computer wouldn’t draw my picture. I’ve been trying to get into rooms I wasn’t supposed to be in ever since.

On September 13th 2001 I wrote an email to my friends because writing it made me feel better. I was two days removed from watching the second plane fly directly over my head in Battery Park. It still breaks my heart to think about it. This is what I saw.

I’ve always thought of myself as healthy. Nobody ever got hit with the bus they saw coming. Seven parts.

My father was at Omaha Beach. My wife wrote her congressman at thirteen. Yesterday we took the train to New York.

Waking up with that good feeling from marching in NYC yesterday I made the mistake of opening the news. This hit hard. My dad was at Omaha beach D day + 2. A medic doing triage he never spoke of this until he had accepted hospice. Squandering the sacrifice & goodwill of nations is unconscionable

I spent a couple of days flying a Gulfstream IV coast to coast for work. On my day off I decided to fly my 1975 Mooney on and errand instead of driving. What I learned about skill,muscle memory and humility in my post - The View From Short Final

That girl who said you’re not understanding me? She still corrects me when I’m not understanding something. After 40 years she’s gotten pretty good at it.

After about 10 years off I started writing again. Be kind if you click on over

They’re afraid of losing their jobs. Spineless pussies

Shitty news day today. This is Rusty my 5 year old ex-shelter cat. He’s a good boy. Wakes me up at 4:50AM every day

Not surprising.

I was thinking $3K is probably what her homeowners insurance will cover. Who pays for dinners with cash?

Everything old is new again

Getting our protest on this afternoon in NYC - we weren’t paid- we did the whole route from Bryant Park to Central Park. Peaceful gathering of like minded citizens concerned about how quickly this administration Is destroying government services,our economy retirement accounts and the rule of law

Very very important read. A startup backed by the paypal mafia and the Kushner is set to get a contract to privatize the entire internal govt credit card system. No compete sweetheart deal. Justified by bogus claims abt fraud. Pure corruption. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Bringing them factory jobs back to the US

As someone who is subject to random drug testing to jeep my job I couldn’t agree with this more

I couldn’t agree more

It’s probably a long shot but what do you think? Perhaps some hacking group got into Michael Waltz’s signal account and sent the connect request to Jeffery Goldberg? Having access to that account they could have also added him to the Houthi PC small group?

I signed this. I live in Connecticut so it's like singing to the choir, preaching to the converted. talking to Noah about the flood.

Minimizing a paper trail = no documentation. As someone who interacts with ATC on a daily basis I’m alarmed that an entity where every single transmission is recorded regardless of medium would approach such a transformative overhaul of the most essential service by “transmitting in the blind”

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

I'm a corporate jet captain. We have the best air traffic controllers in the word. They like most industries these days are overworked and short staffed. There is no waste fraud or abuse in their business. Its a tough job handled admirably. Laying any off will impact safety.

If you’re a Dem elected and you’re not mentioning the massive cuts to cancer cure and social security funding in every public appearance you’re just not doing your job.

Well said Counselor.

Wait. Have @doge and Elon just been pulling numbers from usaspending.gov ? Then releasing it as if they discovered it ? Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me. Very Trump like too. Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?
