Listening to this Wondery / American Scandal series of episodes on Deepwater Horizon. I kind of remember it but there have been so many environmental disasters related to oil, how can one keep up?
I don’t want to jinx anything but I’m having a productive day at work.

The main part has been taken up by another store chain called At Home.#Miami #Florida #kendall
This is the very last #Kmart in the United States. I think also in the world, but I’ll need to verify it. It’s literally a shell of its former self. This is where the garden department for a much larger former location of this store.
Listening to this original fiction #podcast from @amahnke - it’s excellent, like all his podcasts. I also really like pods from @qcodemedia. This is set in New Hampshire and involves 🧛🏻‍♀️
And yet, the University is 'exploring' the possibility of requiring staff to be on campus 5 days a week. I would lose 5 out of 9 on my staff. They will not travel those long distances and I don't blame them.
Most of my staff at the University of Miami do not live in Miami and commute long distances because it's so unaffordable. Salaries have not been adjusted for the high cost of living here.
This is no joke. #Miami has become unaffordable for over half the population (54%) in the city / county. "They might have to choose between food and child care or car insurance and a medical procedure. Many are just a crisis or two away from financial ruin."
More than half of Miamians can barely make ends meet, new report finds
Rising housing costs and lagging wage growth have pushed more than a half-million local families to the financial brink.

Just finished watching the magnificent A Room With a View (1985). I forgot the operatic voice was Kiri Te Kanawa - what an amazing voice.
Apparently, it’s a thing. There’s no directions for people who get a new phone to deregister their old phone first before they set up a new phone. IT helped me fix it.
I got a new phone today. As I was setting up all the apps, I opened MS Authenticator to make sure I can get into all my work accounts. It prompted me to type in a code in itself, which did nothing. It is maddening circular logic and I still can’t get it working.
If I were @jimmykimmel.com I wouldn’t go back to #Disney, even if they apologize and want him back. Maybe the era of late night tv has run its course anyway and needs to migrate to other avenues like Substack.
Watching Antiques Roadshow and this guy just found out that his Patek Philippe watch was worth $35k. He thought maybe $1k. He was speechless and then started crying. It was beautiful.
The traffic in Miami is particularly heinous today.
I have never seen most of Robert Redford’s films. I should correct that…
Seen on the train 🚊 today. This is how I feel since I recently had #COVID, lost my father less than two weeks ago , and ended up in the #ED (emergency department, not erectile dysfunction) last week.
I wish the #Miami #metrorail went to #Wynwood. And the #beach. And a bunch of other places.
