Wealth effects are supporting consumer spending even as gains in real disposable income track weakness in hiring & stickiness in inflation. Real income gains have been effectively zero over the past 3-6m. A falling saving rate reflects that consumption is not being financed by labor income

Carbon monoxide deaths spike during power outages.
If you own a portable generator, make sure you have working carbon monoxide alarms. One portable generator can produce as much carbon monoxide as hundreds of cars.

Never run your generator indoors. Even with the big garage door open, it’s still not enough ventilation. The only safe place to run a generator is outdoors at least 20ft away from your home.

This is an incredible cookbook.
I've given three copies as gifts, and one family called it "nearly transformative" for its ability to widen the range of foods their autistic child would eat, and for opening paths of consideration for *what* things their child found objectionable.
Buy it.

The Insurrection Act in no way whatsoever suspends, closes, or bypasses the courts. It is not a suspension of habeas corpus. It is not martial law. It does not authorize rule by decree. It allows using troops for law enforcement but that's it. It's not an instant dictatorship switch.
Trump on the Insurrection Act: "It does make life a lot easier. You don't through the court system. It's just a much easier thing to do."
