Sold for my kidneys, sold for my liver
Why so weedy, so fucking needy
There’s no such thing as being too greedy

🔗 The Biggest Industry in Every State, Mapped
Makes for an interesting read .. and then I saw that Real Estate was the biggest industry in California .. and I thought wait .. there’s tech, entertainment, aerospace, agriculture .. real estate out performs them all?
And then I read …
This is largely because the Bureau of Economic Analysis treats homeowners as landlords renting to themselves, and includes the rental value in GDP. If economists did not include this value, a jump in the homeownership rate would cause GDP to drop.
Talk about measuring the wrong things!

The corporate obsession with transformation is outdated - and continues to fail. Decades of data show most efforts don’t work, so rather than chasing grand, one-time overhauls, organisations must embrace continuous adaptation: flexible structures, people-first strategies, and real-time responses to shifting markets and needs. Change isn’t a ‘one-and-done’ project, it’s a lifetime commitment. Stop transforming. Start adapting. That’s the edge. That’s survival.

Surveillance - It's Getting Worse.
Surveillance - in the one hand it doesn’t work - on the other hand - everybody thinks it does - and on the third hand - compnaies keep on coming up with more cool aid to demonstrate it. And yes - its AI that’s bringing that third hand in.
🪦 … and so farewell Ozzy – thank you for asking that question at the very beginning. It is often my only one. 🎵

Sen. Lisa Murkowski said she feels “cheated” after she won a concession in the recently passed tax and spending law to protect wind and solar projects, only to see the president and his administration issue recent orders that she said seem designed to quickly quash such projects. “I feel cheated,” she said in an interview Friday. “I feel like we made a deal and then hours later, a deal was made to somebody else.”
Today I updated a friends iphone apps .. triple digits .. apparently Clubhouse is still going .. no - don’t delete it she said - I might need it.
