Similar dynamic with football teams in lakefront stadiums in Chicago and Cleveland
Similar dynamic with football teams in lakefront stadiums in Chicago and Cleveland
High on the list of absurd humiliations of parenting is arguing and losing one's temper over cajoling a child to eat. Food. That they just asked for.
The Bears CEO said they couldn't find an example of a $2B private investment. Turns out United Center (privately funded) was about $360M in 2024 money; the Sears/Willis Tower was about $1B in 2024 money. Kind of surprising it's a $3B cost for just the stadium.
The Bears have a really cool video but it's ridiculous to even entertain spending a billion dollars plus on a domed stadium for that $5B company. They can build it all themselves. We can build sports facilities for schools with taxpayer money.
This is tonight's surprise winner of the PA Dem primary for Treasurer who is aggressively calling to deploy public capital for raising wages not just enriching the wealthy.

California doesn't allow companies to force their employees to agree not to compete with them after they leave which is one helpful reason so many huge tech companies grew there and not in other states. This national regulation will make our country better for entrepreneurs.

209 electoral votes lined up -- need to get to 270 for a common-sense modern national popular vote for president. Nice @ABC write up here: abcnews.go.com/US/state-law-t…
“You either step forward into growth or step backward into safety” - Abraham Maslow (from today's @FitFounder newsletter). Unfortunately there's no safety in growth. Good reminder for me growth is inherently disconcerting.
We do have the money. For whatever. We just need some of that anti-spending sentiment to focus more on the war contractor industry and less on, say, Venezuelan families chasing the American dream who need a crash pad for a few years until they are middle-class Americans.

Did you know hotels will share revenue with festivals during off peak seasons? @eastdakota is a @sundancefest super fan and thinks the main reason it's pricing out the artistic community is because February is peak ski season. So move Sundance to April. parkrecord.com/opinion/a-bett…
I don't have access to security briefings, but it isn't implausible to imagine an enemy (Russia maybe?) trying to turn barges into weapons to destroy bridges and impose economic sanctions on the US.

A more democratic presidential election gets closer to reality
Today is the biggest voir dire (jury selection) in a long time as former President Trump and the district attorney will each strike (remove) potential jurors from the pool until only 12 remain. My side hustle is software to manage that process. It's JurorSearch.com
The main reason I stay on this site is the ability to hear directly from people (or countries) I normally would not have access to. This is how Iran describes their attack on Israel - one and done. I hope this is the end of it. No one wins a war.
