Yikes here are the numbers for the past 12 months. Everything is pretty much dead except healthcare/social assistance. Note that healthcare growth is largely not about the business cycle -- it's about the aging of the population and more elderly people needing care.

Some exciting news --> Join Pride of Detroit’s EXCLUSIVE Q&A with new Detroit Lions OC Drew Petzing www.prideofdetroit.com/pride-of-det...

Skip! Very happy that my manifestation of Dan Skipper joining the Lions coaching staff came to fruition youtube.com/shorts/VPevj...

I joined @mekoscott.bsky.social and @mcannon313.bsky.social on the POD YouTube page for a fun 40-minute discussion about "Way-Too-Early Detroit Lions Draft Targets for 2026" We talk prospects at the biggest positions of need, and a surprise pick Brad Holmes might make --> youtu.be/WycEh-yw2j4?...

One of my favorite free agent signings last year for the #Lions was Rock Ya-Sin. He had a solid season in 2025 and I think him coming back would be a good idea for both sides in 2026. www.prideofdetroit.com/detroit-lion...

Apparently resources and money are too scarce to provide foreign aid for food and medicine but not foreign think-tanks

Pistons were also down an All-Star on the evening.

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved. DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

As a Lions fan: fuck all the way off!!!🤬🤬🤬

The video Trump posted of the Obama family as monkeys says nothing about Trump that we didn’t already know. But it does say everything about the people who still stand with him. Do not forget who the MAGA/MAGA Christen are & why they stand with him. People rot from inside out.

President Donald Trump used his social media account to share a video about election conspiracy theories that includes a racist depiction of former President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, as primates in a jungle. https://to.pbs.org/45NPsfd

Trump's racist post came at the end of a minute-long video promoting conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. n.pr/46d74S3

NO TAXPAYER BAILOUTS FOR THE CRYPTO SPECULATORS AND CON ARTISTS. If you gambled and lost, don’t ask the American people to bail you out. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Going to go ahead and give this a bump now that it might have a little more interest to some #DetroitBasketball #Pistons fans

Bitcoin is getting pretty close to being down 50% from its October peak, and it's hard not to view that as one of the most positive indicators we've had in a while.

Wrote about Garrett Nussmeier getting a draft bump from being Senior Bowl MVP. He's still outside my top 100 but sometimes it's good to explore the devil's advocate position... www.si.com/fannation/co...

Shouldn’t thoughts and prayers be protecting the President 🤔🤔🤔

An updated look at the Pistons' depth chart and financial picture less than 24 hours from the trade deadline www.freep.com/story/sports...

Let’s be clear: when the Trump administration kills or stalls energy generation projects, that’s the White House choosing to make your electricity more expensive. Americans deserve better.

"We’re witnessing a murder. Jeff Bezos, the billionaire owner of The Washington Post, and Will Lewis, the publisher he appointed at the end of 2023, are embarking on the latest step of their plan to kill everything that makes the paper special." www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

*checks these Draymond Green trade rumors and sees the Pistons are not involved*

People generally don’t like the idea of being concentration camp supporters even if it’s what they voted for and the second trump admin is not giving ordinary people a lot of cover to claim otherwise these days!

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

What do you think is going to happen when the entire tax burden falls on the middle class and small businesses to fund an entire country but billionaires pay nothing

What did they think crypto was being used for? It’s like 85% crime.

Valanciunas gets a triple crown: personal foul, upgraded to flagrant-1, plus a technical. Jalen Duren also gets a T. Isaiah Stewart gets a gold sticker for walking away from the abuse without any incident.

What are your thoughts on this Robbie? I actually like and understand the deal

I mean this is crazy

Just in: Chicago, Minnesota and Detroit have agreed to a multi-team deal that sends Jaden Ivey and Mike Conley Jr. to the Bulls and Kevin Huerter and Dario Saric to the Pistons, sources tell ESPN. Detroit also receives a 2026 first-round protected swap from Minnesota.

Starting off the POD Free Agency profile series with a fan favorite in Malcolm Rodriguez. Does he deserve another deal with the team or should the #Lions move on? www.prideofdetroit.com/detroit-lion...

Ahh, and there it is. The End Game. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Headline from USA Today: "Trump says Republicans should 'nationalize' elections, take control from states" "...a nation won’t rouse itself if it doesn’t hear the alarm"-- @davidfrenchjag.bsky.social Hey America, WTFU www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/o...

Yes, we just got confirmation that this rule will apply to Josh Paschal as well

Please pay attention to decimal places as you read this post. He paid $750.00 in income taxes [I am neither an accountant nor a lawyer so will make no further comment on that] and wants $10,000,000,000.00 because somebody leaked that fact.

This has been happening.. just follow the wealth distribution gap for the last several decades but if Trump is finally waking you up this, welcome.

We traveled to Nike’s second-largest hub and interviewed 100 workers, none of whom said they earned anywhere near 1.9 times the local minimum wage, the pay rate the company has cited as its global average over the years. With @oregonian.com

This was a 31-point swing for Democrats. I’m not a politics reporter, but that seems like a pretty big number. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/u...
