The day after SBF is convicted in Manhattan, I have to recommend a great book on the topic of both crypto and FTX. It's "Number Go Up" by Zeke Faux. He was writing a different crypto story when FTX set off sirens and flashing red lights. It's a great read and very informative.

DeSantis is simultaneously shrinking Florida's tax base (heavy on tourism taxes) and giving revenue away to rich people (private school vouchers w/o a needs assessment). Vying for the Worst Governor Ever, in a pageant with too much competition.

Florida is losing good teachers at all levels. Corporations will be wary of locating here as their employees prioritize their children's education. Authoritarianism doesn't sell.

The God you claim to believe in answers prayers by giving you the means to the solution. Failure to act is a failure to receive & follow his will. It's a failure of your faith. Your thoughts & prayers are as ineffective as blowing out a wildfire.

This is quite a BFD… the highly influential editor of Christian Today denounces Tucker and white replacement theory. If this theological pushback takes hold, it could be the counteroffensive against white Christian* nationalism that saves the republic...

Disney has controlled Reedy Creek since 1967 -- bringing billions & creating countless jobs in Florida.
Everything was great until Disney supported #lgbt human rights. Then, GovRonDeSantis attacked Disney, hurting the people of Florida in the process.

DeSantis-appointed board votes to invalidate Disney's effort to thwart state takeover of its special taxing district | CNN Politics
The board appointed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to oversee Disney's special taxing district on Wednesday sought to claw back its power from the entertainment giant, voting to invalidate an agreement struck between Disney and the previous board in February, just before that board's dissolu..

Deep-pockets Disney sues Ronnie D and Florida taxpayers will be on the hook for his defense. Most of FL's state income derives from tourism. Tourism = Disney.

If you're a fan of American acoustic music, a new release today will make you happy. It's "Mighty Poplar" by the group of the same name - a top-shelf ensemble of musicians drawn from outstanding bands like the Punch Brothers. Great listening.

I believe the children are our future (to quote Whitney). At a minimum, let's not kill them, traumatize them, make it impossible for them to go to school free of worry that someone will shoot them. And, oh yeah, free school breakfast and lunch.

I hate the trite phrase "err on the side of caution." And it's being used to justify so many bad actions that it loses meaning for positive ones.

Ron DeSantis is doing everything he can to support the effects of climate change. No, really. He's giving all Floridians a great reason to get out.

Great op-ed in the NY Times today by Henry Louis Gates, "Who's Afraid of Black History." Why, Ron DeSantis is afraid of black history, of course. An uneducated public not only votes "correctly," they often don't vote at all.
09:18 AM - Feb 18, 2023
Why does Ron DeSantis think that hurting America's Happiest Place is a winning strategy? In a state that relies heavily on tourism, Disney is kinda important. There are good biz reasons to look at Disney's perks, but that's not why the big D**k is doing it.
