As a native Hoosier, this feels about right to me.
Here is my proposal for a US High Speed Rail Network! A lot of research went into this map, and I tried to be as unbiased as possible. Thoughts?

If you're on a #GLP1 and worried about losing muscle mass and bone density (you should be!) there's a way to avoid it - according to Dr. Doug McGuff (Author of Body by Science). I've actually been following this for over a year & it works! @DougMcGuff youtu.be/xtql93q0CSY?si=VwE4…

Did you know that the address of the Cherry Capital Airport in Traverse City, MI (TVC) is on Flydon't Drive? I think that's pretty clever. Have any other airports tried that?

Fascinating findings. The real question is how we can promote dietary changes that will actually allow it to mean something in the real world.
Fish oil is sold for your heart. The stranger result is what it does to behavior. Researchers pooled 29 randomized trials, 3,918 people, half of them children. About a gram of omega-3 a day, for a few months, and aggression dropped. Both kinds: the hot, provoked, lash-out kind and the cold, planned kind. It held across ages, both sexes, and clinical diagnoses. The effect is modest, roughly a fifth of a standard deviation, not a personality transplant. What makes it believable is where it acts. The omega-3 DHA is most concentrated in the prefrontal cortex, the patch of brain that does impulse control, and supplementing it seems to firm up the braking circuit between that region and the amygdala. A cheap capsule, partly tuning a behavior we usually file under character. Small effect, hard data, and a mechanism that actually fits.

Ooooh, are we sharing fables? I got one for you. So, there's this frog that enters public service, presumably for the right reasons. He spends years as a district judge, then gets elected to the state supreme court, then attorney general of that state. Wouldn't you know it, that frog makes his way up to the U.S. Senate and gets reelected a few times. He seems to have a great path ahead. Well, along comes this scorpion who's running for president and saying outright: if you don't support me, I'm gonna sting you. The supposedly wise frog warns everyone else about the scorpion, tells them this scorpion is bad news, tells them this scorpion is gonna sting them with no regard for their support. Alas, the scorpion is elected anyway, and the frog, despite knowing the scorpion is going to sting, keeps supporting the scorpion. The frog, once wise, spends a decade defending the scorpion stinging others even though the frog knows there's a damn good chance he's gonna get stung himself because the scorpion doesn't do loyalty. The frog, you see, is too chickenshit to speak out against the scorpion and decides to just wait out the scorpion's time. He's okay with others getting stung, though. He figures if he can appeal to the scorpion's ego and support him, he'll evade the eventual sting. So, he spends years pandering to the scorpion and looking the other way while others get stung. And after a while, he figures he's gonna make it out okay. Well, along comes this other frog who panders even harder. A truly corrupt and nasty frog. No integrity at all. Seems to have no soul. And the frog thinks: there ain't no way the scorpion is gonna favor this other frog. I've bent over backwards for the scorpion. I've been loyal. This other frog is ugly as sin. No one likes the other frog. The scorpion ain't gonna choose him over me, right? The frog is now neck-deep in delusion. He thinks the way to get out of this pickle is to pander to the scorpion even harder. He even tries to get a highway named after the scorpion. Well... it didn't work. One day, the scorpion thanked the frog for his loyalty and then repeatedly stung him into oblivion. Stung him over and over. Seemed to enjoy it, honestly. I think I read that in Aesop's or somewhere.

Austin is well-served by @JackCraver but there are two huge problems with his approach here, which reflects all too well what local leaders believe. 1/when my rant is over
Here's my update on the sorry state of Project Connect. Depressing to see one of America's leading transit scholars say Austin has fucked up so bad that it might consider just giving up on high-capacity mass transit. austinpolitics.net/a-d/

NYT out with a jaw dropping investigative report on the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. 60 Minutes reported last Sunday on some of this, too. The NYT report is a must-read, the 60 Minutes report should then be watched. 1/3

If you want more doctors doing house calls, not selling their practices and going to work for the big HC conglomerates, make public med school free. A little gov intervention, so that rather than having 100s of thousands in debt guiding their decisions , they can do primary care or be a family physician and spend as much time with patients as they want. They can take cash. They can take chickens. If you had 250k after almost a decade of school, do you think that would impact your decisions ? And if you own a big HC conglomerate, does knowing they are drowning in debt impact your decision and how you compete and contract with them ? Fuck yeah it does. You pressure them till they have to sell out to you in an acquihire. They can’t afford to survive on their own and every huge HC company takes advantage of them About 32k students enter med school and DO school a year. 75k for a grant each. Thats 2.4b annually for each class. That’s it. You want better healthcare for everyone. That’s the place to start.
They can open up their own practice and do whatever they want. No one is stopping them. This is exactly how the direct primary care business has grown so quickly.

I’m incredibly privileged and honored to serve under who I believe to be the greatest man in American politics since the days of our Founders, @RepThomasMassie @MassieforKY. In less than a year, and in spite of the whole of the Washington establishment opposing us, we’ve achieved what any political consultant would have deemed impossible. We threw a sucker punch to the globalist elites and caused a real upset in international affairs through the Epstein Files Transparency Act. We bypassed corrupt leadership in the House of Representatives and the White House. We exposed decades of deep seated corruption in our Department of Justice, spanning 5 presidential administrations. We caused the arrests and resignations of billionaires, CEOs, and even royalty. And through our law, we left an anvil over the necks of all DOJ/FBI participants in the Epstein coverup - who one day may face due punishment when we finally get an attorney general who serves the people, not the cronies. We embarrassed the establishment, got blackballed, yet still managed to pass more legislation through the House floor - some of which will soon become law. Not to mention, we killed several damning legislative items that would otherwise be law today - such as liability immunities to pesticides and data center manufacturers. Most importantly, as a consequence of the special interests and foreign lobbyists who attacked us with vitriol and slander due to our rejection of their dollars and schemes in favor of the American PEOPLE, we awakened millions of Americans. By wasting 35 million dollars in what has become the most expensive Congressional election in the history of the United States, they turned Thomas Massie into a national symbol. Those who saw through the propaganda learned of a man who votes by conscience, not intimidation. A true defender of the Constitution, and he became their last hope in government. Of course, last night we lost. But I have a sneaking suspicion what they really did was turn Massie into a movement. This election caused waves that I believe will one day turn the tides. We will have a return of America First in government. In the meantime, we carry on the fight. 🇺🇸

There are SO MANY things to dislike about Elon Musk. But this is a tremendous trait - one worth cultivating.
Elon Musk's first wife once described what it's like to watch him fail. She said he doesn't react the way normal people react. When a rocket explodes, most people in the room go silent. Some cry. Some start calculating the financial damage. Musk pulls out his phone and starts making calls. Not emotional calls. Engineering calls. "What failed. When can we fix it. When's the next launch." His voice doesn't change. His face doesn't change. The rocket that just cost $60 million is already in the past. The next one is all that exists. She said it was the most unsettling thing she'd ever witnessed. Not because he was cold. Because he genuinely wasn't affected. The failure didn't register as failure. It registered as data. An experiment that produced results. Results that inform the next experiment. This is why he wins. Not because he doesn't fail. He fails more spectacularly than anyone in history. He wins because failure occupies zero psychological space. It enters as data and exits as action. Most people lose not because they fail but because they spend weeks processing the failure before acting again. Musk spends zero seconds. The gap between failure and next attempt is a phone call. - @multiplanet1

The Austin light rail project's per-rider costs are high — enough to buy every projected rider an Aston Martin luxury sports car. At that cost, one expert said it might make more sense to serve those riders with bus rather than light rail. texastribune.org/2026/05/21/… @TexasTribune
