The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

survey.gendercensus.com

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

I had already heard of and seen some of the wild costumes people are wearing to protest in the #Tesla diner in #LosAngeles. But... wow. This person has a hella impressive #Musk costume.

Trust West Hollywood to come up with the craziest protest costumes in the country.

A quotation from Molly Ivins

The War on Drugs is the perfect substitute for the Cold War. We can continue to pursue policies that don’t work on the cheerful assumption that if we just do more of what doesn’t work, it will solve the problem.

Molly Ivins (1944-2007) American writer, political columnist [Mary Tyler Ivins]
Essay (1990-02), “The Czar is Hooked,” The Progressive

A good way to think about the current GDP report is to compare it to the two in Q4 2020 and Q1 2021. In both cases, huge systemic shocks spread across quarters may explain most of what we’re seeing. washingtonpost.com/business/20…
in reply to Sean Casten

In the current dynamic, you had businesses with liquidity advance-buying a lot of imports to avoid tariffs last quarter (which takes GDP down) and then spending those down this one (which drives it up). As in 2020/21 you can only make sense of those numbers by putting the two quarters together.
in reply to Sean Casten

As Zandi notes. But the key is that the economy wasn’t doing as bad as it looked last quarter nor as good as it looks this quarter. But the larger trend appears to be negative.
