Seattle and WA are running some of the most business hostile policy, leaning right into an economic recession. We should be pulling all the stops out to make new housing cheap and abundant, and the business climate friendly so we can grow our way out. seattletimes.com/seattle-news/p…

Businesses don’t close profitable stores. Seattle’s population has been booming so that should mean more sales for these stores. Corporations don’t have an obligation to lose money, but politicians do have an obligation to facilitate a safe and economically viable society.

Do Congressional R's not realize that them taking back tariff authority from T***p will cause a massive spike in the stock market? Do they not want that win for themselves instead of waiting for a Dem-landslide in '26 to get the same benefit?

It's a mistake because you cannot negotiate your way out of this competitive game ... the Prisoners Dilemma. There is no Mar-a-Lago Accord possible here without Trump taking a very public L. You cannot unring this bell. epsilontheory.com/crashing-the-c…

The rabid rejection of Abundance by certain liberals and leftists is actually just a natural reaction to the realization that they and their 2010s grievance politics are RAPIDLY losing relevance. People are tired of these folks. It’s time for a positive vision for the future.

<3 @Noahpinion's pithy distillation of @ezraklein + @DKThomp's new book: "Progressivism should not be a ritual to be followed; it should be a tool to getting real stuff that makes life better for the middle class and the working class of America." noahpinion.blog/p/book-review-…

A year ago I was sitting in a coffee shop with @alexsteeleopal, chatting about startup ideas when he asked me, “how do you recommend I find a technical co-founder?” I told him to just learn to code and build the first version himself. It’s standard advice I give aspiring…

One of the things I’ve noticed about extraordinary pickers of talent is that they don’t see themselves inside the group they’re picking from, even if they lead it. They are true outsiders, chroniclers. People who watch the world from afar and notice things. There’s usually a…

10/ This isn’t just about politics—it’s about the kind of world we want to build. 🛠️ Why support leaders who deny science, fuel hate, and prioritize self-interest? It’s time to choose: values or tax breaks. 💥
