As you get older, it’s amazing how fast bird-watching creeps up on you.

Excalibur (1981) The best version of Arthur. There are some other great ones, but this is the standard.

The economic legacy of the last two years in a single chart. Americans hate tariffs.

My latest for @opinion debunks 3 myths about US manufacturing jobs: 1) they're all good paying; 2) they're all attainable by anyone with a HS degree; & 3) Americans are dying to work them. These 3 fuel a lot of bad policy (eg tariffs); politicians should stop spreading them. /1 bloomberg.com/opinion/articl… (🎁 )

The White House Correspondents' Association strongly objects to the decision to restrict a journalist’s coverage simply because the president didn’t care for their questioning. That is retaliation. The American public's right to an independent press depends on reporters being able to do their jobs without fear that challenging the president will cut off their access. - Jacqui Heinrich, WHCA President

When talk show hosts make ignorant statements in a debate about LeBron versus MJ or the Dallas Cowboys defense, it really is no harm, no foul. But when talking about a serious topic, like mental health issues, it becomes embarrassing. nyti.ms/4yCdNRD
