Three kinds of events have historically pushed the United States into recessions:

The U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran have already brought about the second circumstance on that list and,
if things go badly, potentially the first.
Much will depend on how long the conflict lasts and how severe it remains.

A 1999 Oklahoma newspaper clipping that described a man’s final moments before execution inspired Julie Green to begin their series “The Last Supper.”
“He asked for a final meal of three fried chicken thighs, 10 or 15 shrimp, tater tots with ketchup, two slices of pecan pie, strawberry ice cream, honey and biscuits and a Coke,” they read aloud in a short documentary about the series.
You can see 377 plates Green painted with these last meals at the Georgia Museum.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland is expected to release the measure next week as Democratic lawmakers search for a sharp economic message to counter last year’s Republican tax law.
Under Van Hollen’s proposal, workers making at or below a “living wage”

Insurance is a protection racket
I took a weekend today after pushing myself pretty hard the last 3 and especially yesterday. I now regret that. I slept well, felt fine when I woke up, didn't go do physical labor, and was bored, frustrated, and hungry all day.
People like me don't need breaks, we just need to work until we physically and mentally collapse, then recuperate. High speed, low drag, tailspin, crash, and phoenix.

Why does my ThinkPad's LCD gain contrast when plugged into power and desaturate when unplugged. KDE-Wayland 6.6.0.
Wi-Fi 7 APs apparently tend to IDLE - IDLE, not spec power - at 17-38 watts. That would be a minimum of €46-€103 *per unit, per year* in running costs for me.
Plugging in a cable remains undefeated.
