IRS Direct File,
the electronic system for filing tax returns for free,
will not be offered next year,
the Trump administration has confirmed.
An email sent Monday from IRS official Cynthia Noe to state comptrollers that participate in the Direct File program said that
“IRS Direct File will not be available in Filing Season 2026. No launch date has been set for the future.”
The program developed during Joe Biden’s presidency

I wasn’t feeling well this morning so I went into work late… still didn’t feel good after an hour so I went home. I biked both ways.
I’ve wondered how I might handle having to bike home from work if I wasn’t feeling well, but it was fine.
Did I feel great riding? No, but it wasn’t terrible either. Just gonna lie down the rest of the day.

Was removing some snails from the greenhouse. Opened skylight to fling them over the fence (into an uncultivated garden) and the window collapsed on my head! No injury as I was wearing a cap and the glass didn't break. Mortice joint had rotted through. Greenhouse was quite old when we arrived 40 years ago and I keep replacing bits.
Luckily I'd kept a partially rotten roof spar so was able to cut it down, using the sound part and joint it to fit.
Never throw anything that …

Post-leave burnout recovery, week 2:
Lots of mixed feelings in returning to work. I really missed my team and my job. Work and the work schedule are each somewhat helpful for recovery. 1:1s with reports and partnerships are a strong highlight of my week!
Motivation while recovering from the tail end of burnout is hard for some types of work as a manager. Burnout makes motivation hard as it is, and lack of context on what's going on makes that harder, and both of those exacerba…

Manufacturing employment has been falling since April,
and job growth is slower than it was between January 2024 and August 2024.
The timing of the manufacturing declines corresponds with the Trump administration’s disastrous tariff policies,
which are projected to cost American households $2,400 annually.
Since Donald Trump’s tariff announcement in April 2025,
overall manufacturing employment has declined by 42,000,
while job openings and hires have fall…
