I've been tracking my gas purchases since March 2 this year. So far I've spent an extra $257.26 for refueling my Subaru Crosscheck. I can't imagine what all the truckers are paying extra for diesel. Photo proof of what I paid for gas in the beginning of this war. Average for June $4.095 a gallon.

Mitch Missing McConnell is still getting paid and @schumer.senate.gov just can't be bothered to check in on him
I think "Mitch Missing" would be a better way to phrase that. I doubt anyone really misses him.
It’s Day 50 of Missing Mitch.
So who is ready for Mitch McConnell to die tomorrow? NOTE TO FBI: This is not a threat but an observation of his poor health and the obvious coverup of the fact he has already died to hold onto political power. Remember if you sue me you have to open up discovery.
@nbcnews The money laundering desk of Capital One closes hundreds of Trump accounts, and we don't hear about it on the evening news? Are you really going to just stand by and let him destroy our country? And why aren't you asking questions about Mitch McConnell?

Capital One cites money laundering review in Trump-related suit
Capital One Financial Corp. said in a court filing late Friday that it closed accounts belonging to President Donald Trump’s sprawling real estate company in 2021 for legitimate reasons after

Capital One closed Donald Trump’s accounts “‘for anti-money laundering reasons,’ the bank said. ‘The closures were the result of months of analysis and a careful review’ by the bank's anti-money laundering team ‘in accordance with bank policies and regulatory guidance.’”
Hassett has obviously never worked in a data center. Lots of jobs? Initial construction,YES. Daily operations? Nope. There can be as little as 3-4 people working during the weekend. During the week it can be as little as 5-6.
Hassett: "Data centers are very good for towns bc they create so many jobs & bring people in with high incomes that can buy houses & stuff like that. So if you take a sleepy town that hasn't seen much in the last 30 years & put a data center there, there are gonna be a bunch of happy residents."

This is the most Canadian thing I have ever seen.
Kids playing road hockey on the brand-new Gordie Howe International Bridge 🏒🇨🇦 Canada celebrated the opening the only way we know how with hockey on the deck of the longest cable-stayed bridge in North America.

Super busy week with me picking up TWO overnight shifts. I did get at least a ride outside after work. Only a couple dozen people on the DCRT. The walkway had its usual crowd. I wished I could have ridden longer but I needed sleep.
Air quality has improved to 48 it's now safe to ride outdoors! I know this picture doesn't really do any justice but I couldn't smell any smoke this morning! #cycling #hudsonvalley #walkwayovertheHudson
#Zwift ride of the week, Col des Aravis. I really don't like doing indoor hills with grades over 10% but since it was a short hill that I would just bang it out. Leveled up so at least I got that going for me.
An adviser to Ukraine's defense minister urges the public to pollute online reviews for gas stations in Russia "to chase Russians around the city." Fun trolling, perhaps, but this kind of infowar also degrades efforts to gauge fuel shortages by tracking these online reports.
Rest days from the bike are important. Plus I did the overnight shift last night so , yeah.

As predicted the heat came. I did the Climb Control course in #zwift. Miles: 15.7 Elevation :627 ft Avg. Power 168w Calories: 564 Avg Speed 15.1 Outside temp: 97 Feels like 108 Inside temp 70.
I just stepped outside at 5:45 am. It's already starting to warm up along with the humidity. Last night rain was not helping to cool things off. Looks like it is another day on #zwift.
Left brain: "Let's make today just about the ride no data or silly things like that. Right brain: "Did you forget the heart rate monitor again?" Left brain: 😞 #cycling #gravel #bikesky #hudsonvalley
There are a lot of flashing lights and #trains moving super slow, that's not good. West side of the Hudson just north of #Poughkeepsie.
I can just imagine how the #TdF is going to be this year with this heat. Heat training is going to be the next after attitude training.
