We have never permanently held any transgressions against a celebrity, much less a champion athlete. Murder, rape, fraud, lying, doping, cheating, domestic violence, drugs, tax fraud, etc Winners are forgiven everything. It’s the American way.

Careful. Once Horseradish gets established it is almost impossible to get rid of. Ever. A lot of gardeners grow it in a bucket buried in their garden to prevent its inevitable World Conquest. Good luck!!

Alberta is Canada’s Coal Country. In the 1980s coal supplied over 80% of Alberta’s energy. In 2015 it was still over half. #energysky

And I love how he pops up everywhere. I was listening to a Hermanos Gutierrez album the other day and suddenly a song comes up and you can hear a third guitar. I look down: “Tres Hermanos” featuring Dan Auerbach. And it was great!

Honestly some of Dans solo stuff and cameos are now better than actual Black Keys releases.

Sorenson? He used the German word “Potenz”. I guess you could make a literal argument that it should be “Power of Hydrogen” but it’s a negative logarithm so “potential” seems more contextually accurate.

Bad restaurants need to die. And die quickly. The fire sale re-lease and auctioned off kitchen hardware is what provides the opening for someone with a really good idea but a limited budget to take their shot.

Add the on-and-off hardcore drug addiction, repressed mental health issues stemming from his father’s suicide and then the early onset Alzheimer’s and having to move into a cognitive-support assisted living community. Milch has had one hell of a life.

Finally ditched my Tesla (3rd one I’ve had since 2014) and am now driving my BMW i4. I don’t even know the name of the CEO of the company that made my EV. And I’m loving that actually.

You are leaving out all the ethical violations of the first judge that the appeals court felt demonstrated bias. And they didn’t dismiss it, they sent back down to District to Judge Koller-Kotelly.

If you are binging, I highly rec Andrew Scott's 2020 version of Hamlet. The full-length BBC broadcast is on youtube for free. (A little over 3 hours).

I bard-binged hard back in March and this was the highlight of the weekend for me.

What’s wild is that it’s not even named after Christopher Columbus either. It’s named after the Columbia Dept of the Hudson Bay Trading company. Which was named after the Columbia River which was named after a boat.

It’s everywhere. Florida is starting to ramp up quite a bit at utility scale. Iowa has been a per capita leader for years. Kansas, Ohio, Virginia, Wyoming, New Mexico, Idaho, Michigan and Utah are all sinking serious money into this.

EIA just released US Generation numbers for March and coal supplied 11.85% of the nation's power. This is a new record.

Last year we had 2 months in the 13.X%'s (April + May). And THAT was a record.

For reference, in March '14 coal supplied 41.12% of US Power.
