  1. Fantastic World Cup final
  2. Penalty Kicks are ridiculously stressful.
  3. Crazy fun action
  4. It seems good for the UT system to continue to expand within the state. I really have no sense of the quality of SFA and if the expansion is a quality expansion.
  5. quick score for the orange
  6. what a waste of a corner kick by Canada
  7. nice score before the half by Belgium
  8. wasted opportunity for Belgium
  9. Is there a cliff notes of the differences?
  10. I'm loving the 4 games a day. My work productivity is down 90%.
  11. In some ways, I perceive Vanguard's low rent UI as a reflection of just how little they spend in certain parts of the company.
  12. I don't know anything about Hakeem Jeffries. I looked at his Wikipedia page. Why is it bad that he is the replacement leader?
  13. And today natty ripped higher for an 8% gain in the prompt month. If you have a crystal ball to trade the massive daily swings, there is a fortune to be made.
  14. Nat Gas is getting absolutely slammed. Sub $5 for prompt month (November) and down 50% from its high in August. Yeesh.
  15. What a strange 24 hours for Musk.
  16. Today, my bet is that Trump doesn’t run. DeSantis wins GOP nomination. Assuming GOP wins big in the midterms, I don’t see Biden running. He will have done his job of beating Trump and will let someone else fight the next battles vs GOP. No idea who might win the Dem nomination.
  17. Tough news to hear. Nothing easy about starting the job search process after 10 years.
  18. Will there be any lawn left to mow with this kind of heat in TX? My lawn has already said fuck off. Shriveled blades of grass going brown. I just want to keep my trees alive at this point.
  19. As others have indicated, natural gas has driven a huge part of the increase in power costs in the state of TX. Note also that power for summer (July-Aug 2022) has also skyrocketed on concerns about pricing volatility in ERCOT related to grid stability. In fact, some retail providers have stopped taking new enrollments until summer has ended due to risk management concerns.
  20. Austin Energy rates are up for review. https://austinenergy.com/ae/rates/2022-base-rate-review/2022-base-rate-recommendations Thankfully the proposal indicates AE rates will go up far less than natural gas has increased. Usage is the other big driver of people's electric bills. With the heat arriving early in TX this year, electric bills will be higher purely based on higher consumption.
  21. Up only 52%. I must be surly poor.
