One last plug: This week I explored this history of the Pohlad Family, who are currently selling the Minnesota Twins. It became so much more than a story of money, but postwar bank fraud, public transit, airline deregulation, and more. Even if you're not a baseball fan, please take a look!

The Pohlad Empire (Part One): Banking On The Future

This week at Twins Daily, we're running a five-part series detailing the history of the business ventures of the Pohlad family. Even as they prepare to sell the Twins after a 40-year ownership, it's a...

The FP’s annual revenue was no more than $2 million a year and it had $15 million from investors to work with. It was purchased for $150 million in what every agrees was symbolic but that clearly had nothing to do with its actual worth.

Not in the cryptos that crashed. But even so, there’s arguments that mass cryptos that could crash like BitCoin would have very little impact on bigger markets. There’s a good paper from St Louis Fed that argues that Silicon Valley Bank should have crashed and would’ve made little broader effects

Yeah my guess is when you first start using UHD it does an automatic calibration based on presumed settings. I get this a lot on Fox Sports which completely resets all my settings every time.

I think trying to beat these folks on language issues is probably a losing argument. They don’t care! The real issue is that these “groups” literally don’t exist.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

I think a lot of actresses are told to avoid showing *thinking* on screen. Many of Keaton’s best roles were based on her ability to not simply be but become. The Nicholson line about “looking for your soul not an ashtray” in Reds actually kind of shows why Keaton was great. Being busy as strategy.

I saw two movies last year that basically took the plot of “single woman in 70s New York” - one I won’t name but the main actress felt all over the place; the other was Looking for Mr Goodbar, which *is* all over the place, but Keaton is such an assured center to an unsure character.

It's that day, folks. We're 8 hours from #Cubs-#Brewers Game 5. One of these teams goes home today, and this game is going to be fierce. Can't wait for it. Since I'm up early making coffee before my daughter's soccer game today, I'm gonna skeet you all some of my favorite pieces about these two.
