This was a good listen. I’d love to hear you and future guests’ thoughts as to what explained China’s lengthy cessation of buying given what Currie described as the CCP’s security-first bent.

two weeks ago, a girl told her mom "I'm going to go into Chicken Nuggy's cage and I'm going to stay there because I love him." Regrettably, he remains up for grabs.

Yeah, I wish I was named by a five year old after his/her favorite thing, too

I've repeatedly run into a 4 y.o. tripod husky named Chicken Nuggy at Contra Costa Animal Services. While he's not at risk of euthanasia, I consider the Nug's ongoing availability to be a market failure. Can attest that in person he is the party that his photo indicates. Someone get on this.

I would pay good money never to hear the phrase "maxxing" ever again.

This one was a great read. Nice, @alexsammon.bsky.social

Thanks, but no need! Contra Costa Animal Services provides fosters with food and necessary meds at no cost if you want. (Almost certainly the same goes for whatever jurisdiction they were found in, too). Would suspect the Menswear Kittens have found permanent homes, but if not hit me up.

They look great, and if for some reason there aren’t takers get in touch and I’d add them to my current fosters. East Bay. For anyone looking to adopt it would be wise and cost efficient to do it via a shelter. They’ll get free shots, tests, and neuters included in a very reasonable adoption fee.

Be The Change you want to see in the world

Been getting advertisements for Temu novelty t-shirts a lot, and the concept of a slop-based wardrobe might be growing on me.

While Bean Curd was the jock of his litter, he’s paired really well with Crouton and is gentle by kitten standards when they play their favorite game, “make-believe ambush/disembowelment.”

Tough. Fair.

Look, when I confidentially file for an IPO none of you are going to know about it. These guys just have no chill.

Maria is wildly talented and I’ve known her since American Banker days. Just an awesome reporter with technical depth and a penchant for simplifying and humanizing complex topics. This sucks, I hate this industry and everyone should hire her.

Some wild details from @courtneyrozen.bsky.social about how social media companies paid child-focused orgs to recommend kids engage with their products. Google sponsored the Girl Scouts "Be Internet Awesome Fun Patch" and a special edition of Highlights Magazine. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

On X, I'm seeing two dominant strains of Grok interaction. 1. Lazy fact-checking, e.g. "Gork, is this true?" 2. Unconditional positive reinforcement, such as the below:

It's rarely good when "holocaust" is trending on Twitter.

thanks!

It was an excellent farm house! Thanks man!
