Since Donald Trump took office, electricity prices have gone up by 11%.

It's happening
It's official: The US now has more unemployed people than job openings for the first time since April 2021.
In July, the US had:
7.18 million job openings
7.24 million unemployed people
This is yet another crack in the labor market that illustrates how much harder it is to get a new job right now than what we've seen in a long time.
[Note: The July data could be revised, but the trend is pretty straightforward to see]

These interviews are absolute gold. What a life. RIP Quincy Jones.
Just thinking of that time in 2018 when Quincy Jones gave a couple of remarkable interviews with eye-popping details. RIP to a real one.
Here's the Vulture interview (1/2)

hi, you should vote in sf
local elections are won by a few hundred votes, which means you can swing the election
sf has ridiculously fixable problems caused by a fringe group that we can vote out
many of you recognize that sf is important, it’s important to you and what you work on, and it’s culture is nowhere else
this is the city where the future is built. in any other city in the world, caring about climate change means posting on the internet. In SF it means building an electric stove. This is the only place in the world where people look at problems dead in the eye and then actually do something about it. The people of sf make life extension drugs, cryogenics, robots, powerful batteries, self-driving vehicles, pass the turing test, and read ancient scrolls. San Francisco is like the driver’s seat of the world.
that culture only gets to exists in the context of good institutions. A small, fringe group has captured sf for years and driven it into the ground: they’ve blocked housing for years, driving up rent prices. They’ve effectively stopped enforcing laws, and let dealers poison and kill thousands of the poorest folks in the city.
in this election we can genuinely fix it. Please vote! Save SF!

“The speed with which the climate is now changing is faster than (almost) all scientists thought possible.
There is now zero prospect of holding the average temperature increase this century to below 1.5°C; even 2°C is beginning to slip out of reach.” jonathonporritt.com/mainstre…

Polls show that, somehow, most voters don’t know or have forgotten most of this, so here it is all in one place, as presented by @sethmeyers in tonight’s Closer Look: An overview of Donald Trump, the GOP nominee for president.
(And this is only a small fraction.)

🚨 20+ million Americans are submerged in a staggering $220 billion of medical debt. Shockingly, individuals with disabilities and Black Americans face double the burden. This isn't just a medical and economic crisis, it's a moral imperative. #HealthcareInequality

The US just issued its 3rd veto in 137 days of genocide to continue it.
Against the will of 153 states which invoked Uniting for Peace twice.
Against the extraordinary invocation of Art 99 by the UNSG.
Against the ICJ ruling finding plausible genocide & a duty to prevent it
