Today is my Not Gonna Die Day. Six years ago today, I was rushed to the hospital with what I'd later learn was severe sepsis. Sepsis recently claimed the life of my colleague's son. Please learn the signs of sepsis because early intervention saves lives.

Let me finish the chapter for you you, Pete:
You may say to yourself, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me.” ... Like the nations the Lord destroyed before you, so you will be destroyed for not obeying the Lord your God.
Apr 16
Observe the commands of the Lord your God, walking in obedience to Him and revering Him. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land—a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills; a land with wheat and barley, vines and fig trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey; a land where bread will not be scarce and you will lack nothing; a land where the rocks are iron and you can dig copper out of the hills.
- Deuteronomy 8:6-9

Why was Elon Musk willing to spend $119M on electing Trump? Just look at Tesla stock today. He’s $15B richer because of the bump.
That’s a 12,600% return on investment.
This is all about the buying and selling of a presidency. Most elections are, this one is just nakedly so.

Jeff Bezos stopped the Washington Post from endorsing Harris on Oct 25. Amazon stock popped up today. Bezos’s net worth jumped over $7B because of the non-endorsement.

The market is rewarding these businesses not for anything they’ve done, but merely for who their CEO and largest stockholders happen to be.

✅ vote plan executed:
I had to wear stretchy pants, Birkenstocks with socks, and a giant ice pack strapped to my back over the incision site, but my vote is cast! LFG @KamalaHarris @Tim_Walz

Finally framed my Robert Indiana print from the 1976 Democratic National Committee’s Voter Registration Program. Thanks to Jimmy Carter for commissioning this!
On Tuesday I’ll be casting my ballot for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz. (I’m sure this shocks exactly *none* of you).

Tonight was another magical night of music, this time with Stevie Wonder at Target Center in Minneapolis. It’s hard to find the words to express what it was like to hear all of these classics live for the first time.

.@maggierogers was magical tonight at @TargetCenterMN in Minneapolis. Among the many highlights, she did a beautiful piano cover of Prince’s I Would Die 4 U, right across the street from @FirstAvenue where Prince made the song famous in Purple Rain (video in last attachment)

ESPN put up this graphic for the best start for a QB with his 4th team. 4 of those top 5 wore a Vikings jersey at some point in their careers.

Fuck you @FIFAcom. Making people buy some bullshit tchotchkes in order to “earn” the right to attempt to buy tickets (had to double check that) is bullshit. And extortion, so basically the most FIFA thing ever. Did I say fuck you? I’m pretty sure I said fuck you. If not, fuck you

The new Andy Scott loon sculpture at the corner of Snelling and University in St Paul is majestic. It plays with light in fun ways. Standing 33’x90’, it really demands to be seen in such a busy public space

Every, and I mean every, ad on local tv stations in Wisconsin is a political ad. As a decided voter, it’s exhausting to see, and I only have to wade through it for one night. Are undecided voters really persuaded by any of this?
