I liked The Nineties by Chuck Klosterman if a bit uneven. But so packed with memories.
Every MO R voted that children can carry guns in public. They voted to defund police if a cop helps stop a fed gun crime. They voted to ban a 12 year old rape victim with major health risks from having an abortion. Bills to ban mentioning racism or LGBT issues, ban drag.……
NEW: @Mastercard suspended giving to the Sedition Caucus after the insurrection. But last month, they broke that pledge and gave $5,000 to Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, who notoriously said that he'd create an enemies list of his own if companies were going to put him on one.
@kljohnson85 Here is what I have noticed at my new gig: I send notes to my co workers. And they keep them. Every one I have given is taped to a monitor or tacked to a wall. And that is often the only note there. We have to remember: kindness and appreciation and important.

BUT inflation this past year was 8.5%. And the surplus includes unprecedented one-time federal spending that we can’t expect in future years. 1/x
