Is anyone in charge of this #mariners team? are they smashing the panic button?

Getting real tired of Cal/Julio/Naylor looking like the worst hitters in baseball. #mariners

Cole Young is the truth.

Excellent Jeff Tweedy show last night including a Trooper cover in the encore!

As a Mariners fan....I hate it.

Four theses on tariff impacts: 1. Evidence clearly shows they've added 0.5-1.0pp to inflation. Evidence consistent with them subtracting from growth. And no evidence they've done anything good for manufacturing or trade deficits (but they have raised revenue).

Officially depressed about the #Mariners. That didn’t take long at all.

Useful map from JPM illustrating when oil-on-water shipments might end in various regions over the next month. Note that inventory buffers and underlying demand parameters vary, but Asia looks set to take the biggest hit:

I’ve had just about enough of Chase Delaughter. #Mariners

Ms offense being carried by 5-9 hitters? Sure.

Building higher-density housing lets you save on land costs, by putting more homes on the same parcel. But for the same reason, people are willing to pay more. Which factor wins? Data from Auckland shows that upzoning reduced the land cost to floor area ratio (THA, blue). 1/

Shut-ins provide the clearest picture of supply taken offline so far. With a back of the envelope of +5-7 bucks for every 1mln bbl/d taken off the market, a price levels should be 100-120 bucks given the shut-ins so far. h/t Rory Johnston

We have a new tradition: Every spring we now create a geopolitical crisis that pushes the country as close to a recession as possible just to see how strong the economy really is

In all sincerity, I think it's rad that America hosts a big baseball tournament where absolutely nobody roots for them

So weird: there's more than one scammy memorial site inviting donations or tree-planting in my dad's memory. We are not asking for that, but if people feel moved, donations in lieu of flowers to www.aclu-mn.org, www.aclu.org, or www.eff.org Econ folks, can you help get the word out?

Now that ONE BATTLE won the Oscar let’s get the rest of the cinematic universe going.

Today Vancouver council is set to approve a staff recommendation to back away from their push to become a Bitcoin friendly city. Here's my story about it, along with an extended montage about what Ken Sim has said about Bitcoin on various podcasts in the last two years.

this junkballing Czech electrician is a folk hero in Japan for striking out Ohtani in the last WBC (stopped for photos/autographs etc) but he's retiring after this bc Czech league ball doesn't pay the bills. I love the way he took in in this one last surreal moment before going back to normalcy

Key idea from the Bank of Canada’s Sharon Kozicki. How monetary policy responds to a supply shock depends on size and persistence of that shock. Quite timely now. Full speech: www.bankofcanada.ca/2026/03/cana...

The FBI Director, everyone. You paid for it.

There will definitely be pictures of the Tkachuk or Hughes brothers celebrating with JD Vance or Kash Patel. So gold medal or not, still massive losers.

Does anyone know why we're still doing tariffs?

Canada is sad. Please bear with us at this difficult time

True again.

If you need anything from Canada right now, you're just going to have to wait

Kevin Hassett should be laughed out of every room he enters when this is all over

The province is set to run historic deficits over the next few years, and that deficit looks to be structural. Add an anchor-less debt-to-gdp ratio and rapidly rising debt services costs (nearly $9B by 2028) and it’s a pretty ugly budget picture.
