A rainy cold front passed over Inner Drive Technology WHQ just after noon, taking us from 15°C down to just above 10°C in two hours. The sun has come back out but we won't get a lot warmer until next week.
I've had a lot of coding today, and I have a rehearsal in about two hours, so this list of things to read will have to do:
- Mother Jones's Russ Choma thinks the XPOTUS doesn't really want to win his fraud trial.
- Robert Wright interviewed Brown University professor Lyle Goldstein, late of the US Naval War College, about what lessons Ukraine holds for Taiwan.
- Michael Tomasky salivates over the prospect of Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) becoming Speaker of the House, which Josh Marshall understands.
- The Post details a gruesome Tesla crash the NTSB partially blamed on "over-reliance on automation."
- The Chicago City Council approved a plan to end the sub-minimum wage for tipped workers in Chicago.
- At least 960 migrating birds smacked into the side of Chicago's lakefront convention center yesterday, a new record.
- Poet Jesse Nathan sighs over the loss of poetry in Baseball.
Finally, for the first time in 346 days, the Chicago Bears won a football game. Amazing.
