women in lower income households participate in the workforce at a rate higher than the population average, making them particularly exposed to the high cost and scant availability of reliable childcare. but this is a policy proposed by Dems so it's a handout to people with master's degrees i guess
Cut a line from today's newsletter about how the relatability gap that has led to political leaders passing on a generational win on childcare also applies to the press covering it. Would've kept it if I'd known this was coming. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

If you're keeping up with Ohio gov, there's been a run of Republican attack ads that say Amy Acton mixed pills and alcohol and caused COVID, or something to that effect. Polling in 2026 is polling in 2026, but here's the effect from two higher-quality pollsters.
Every election is an economic election. Every election is a jobs election. Very little happens between elections to boost workforce policy, the way we get people into the jobs to move the economy. This morning, I picked apart why that is and how to change it. jobsthat.work/p/we-need-be...
We need better than the 'apprenticeships and stuff' political platform.

Holy crap, they're really holding the Republicans to this stuff.
Sherrod Brown@sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social · yesterdayNEW AD: Listen to this sh*t.
damn near everything public facing had to be scrutinized for this stuff. It’s not just illegal, it’s hyperillegal.
Ryan Goodman@rgoodlaw.bsky.social · 2d agoHow clear is it that Trump's taxpayer funded ads are illegal? I explain why it is 10/10 clear. Senate in passing the law: Ban is designed to stop public funds used for "glorification" of an individual official. GAO: funds can not be used for "self-aggrandizement" nor partisan political purposes.
Holding hearings on AI where Republicans say it’s OK if we have mass job loss because some people don’t want to work anyway?

Again, sleeper race. Moody really stinks as a talent.

Bama me: I'm real worried about playing Kamario Taylor, you guys. Generalized football me: I WANT TO WATCH KEELON AND KAMARIO DUEL EACH OTHER FOREVER.
Sure, you don’t want your Heisman trophy front runner to have the ball in his hands on a key play.
Realized my writing is too much workforce and practical stuff right now. Which means I’m going to blog some of these business travel takes accumulating in my head. Like how I’m not sure “Pressure” has ever not been watched on an airplane. It might as well have been direct-to-seatback.
[activates FULL OVERBEARING WORKFORCE MODE] Who cares if it's not relevant to doing the job? This type of seventh-dimensional secret job interview etiquette is big part of why hiring is broken and employers struggle to find good talent.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 5d agoIs asking someone to leave the beverages at home for an interview as fussy as reminding a lady to wear pantyhose or a gentleman to ask before lighting a cigarette? We assembled a team of Post staffers across the newsroom — and commenters — to find out: https://wapo.st/4dwx0LS

Think I’ve said this before, but when Trump goes to an SEC game in a safely red state, it feels like a self-care routine that requires mountains of security.
Fairly certain this was in my college newspaper newsroom and I couldn’t help but stare at it during meetings.

I collect “Stripped” covers—like pizza, they’re never bad, and the different approaches are always interesting. I regret that Duncan Sheik died before I heard this one, which is tremendous for the banjo alone. youtu.be/lZ9qmcK6c_A?...
