Trump may be about to strike Iran with almost no public awareness or debate www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/u...

Repositioning our nuclear deterrent in the event Oklahoma even glances this direction.

Ope, they started a Popular Front.

Articulated buses. 😍

What an incredible coincidence!

Checking in with the policy team on our bills before cutoff.

It would have been fun to see Marshawn get into it.

Legislators are debating the high-earner tax, and the phrase "moving their assets" keeps coming up. The enunciation is very important.

Culverts might seem like a boring topic, but billions of dollars worth of fixes to stream-choking culverts -- thanks to a lawsuit by Washington state's tribes -- is helping salmon recover. Great reporting by @magiccanoe.bsky.social magiccanoe.org/salmon-rebou...

Breaking news: Fund managers are taking the most bearish stance on the dollar in more than a decade, as the currency bears the brunt of the damage from unpredictable US policymaking. ft.trib.al/2IxS9xF

Men don't want new teeth. We want new knees. Get it together science.

Instances of racial profiling we *documented* - a war vet grabbed by agents and held for three days. -construction worker who gave agents his ID, which they dismissed as false. He was arrested 2x. -A man who was tased and grabbed All are citizens -and Latino www.propublica.org/article/immi...

It's unchartered, but we can see the terrain: the territory ahead includes masked secret police taking people to concentration camps but not new vaccines. That's our reward for a system in which fewer than 20 people, all of them deranged and malicious, control over $3 trillion.

The evidence from 2025 — revised jobs data, the inflation path, household balance sheets — increasingly suggests the economy did achieve something close to a soft landing in 2023-24. Tariffs might’ve scrambled it. Now the question is whether it can get back there. www.wsj.com/economy/fede...

Swarovski marketing must be so confused by the traffic they're getting from bsky.

I didn't like The King when it came out because I was expecting a more faithful adaptation, but it's good. Especially love Edgerton's Falstaff, come on.

State Patrol is circling my neighborhood after doing the same in Olympia. 🤔

Watching Zags.

"For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences."

No smart people in the military, on orders from the dumbest SecDef in history.

What a great photo of Brazilian alpine skier Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the first South American to ever win a medal at the Winter Olympic Games.

Incredible to see the most powerful country in history surrender all of its hard and soft power for a game show host.

Ohio loves losing to Miami.

It's not a good idea to start a fight with Canadians on ice.

This looks like a pretty decent CPI report -Shelter comes in soft, down to 3.0% YoY - Fairly benign across the board Big pain points - natural gas up almost 10% for the year with 1/2 of that in the last 2 months - Food at home still looks rough

Went to grab lunch, and there is drama on the playground by my building. Some sort of dispute over handball, and they called for "jury" (haven't heard that in a long time). Apparently, that didn't satisfy anyone. We need to get these kids VAR.

Brother, a worm ate part of your brain, and you talk like a garbage disposal gargling nails. Maybe a little caution would do you some good.

I support swearing on the floor, laundered through foreign idioms.

How do I short the Moon?

Josh Lucas.

Hey!

This person is clearly unwell, and apparently, the reason for the FBI seizing 2020 ballots from Fulton County. Cleaning our DOJ might not be worth the effort. I think you have to start over.

Yes, famously the lesson is to bring a knife embedded in a wall to a gun fight.

Hegseth did a desk pop with his laser.

Solid number January 2026 (+130k). However, the change in total nonfarm employment for 2025 was revised from +584,000 to +181,000 (seasonally adjusted). So much weaker than initially estimated

One thing I miss about tutoring kids in math was seeing this lightbulb go off. I was usually assigned to them because they were struggling. You could feel their confidence change.

Could we not have one nice thing for a week?! 😂

LOL more people watched the halftime show than the game, which had very good ratings!

If Washington is driving businesses away, how did we miss this one specifically?

Yeah so this next lego set I’m getting.. over 4,000 pieces

Champions still make time to bully the Rams.

I will always enjoy Jody Allen just having a great time celebrating with the Hawks. I hate that the NFL is trying to force her to sell the team. She's the least problematic owner they've ever had. We're probably going to end up with some private equity goblins instead.

Legislature, please take that day off.
