- Great work from @brendanvduke.bsky.social even if the outcome here is depressing.
- New 25-page @centeronbudget.bsky.social paper from me summarizing the distributional, fiscal, and economic effects of One Big Beautiful Bill's tax cuts and cuts to health care, food assistance, student loans, and climate investments. 🧵 www.cbpp.org/research/fed...
- Great piece on salary compensation. I've put together one report on faculty salaries at OK State and should have another out this year, so have dug into the numbers in detail.

- Did stuff this morning, so watched later knowing the score and without nerves. This was comprehensive and clinical. Even the few mins of the 2nd half had basically no threat. A classic score and squeeze the game. Also you realize how desperate color announcers get to try to create drama. Lol.
