My youngest daughter (age 16) has now finally watched The Shawshank Redemption, and she enjoyed it. I’m basically done parenting now, right? This thing is a wrap and I did good?

My Seahawks are for sale, and I’m kinda terrified of the future. Paul Allen (and his estate) was an incredible steward of the team and generally seemed like good people. The next owner is likely to be some kind of shady investment group (or worse, someone like Bezos), and that just feels gross.

An American Dream at risk: What happens to a small Nebraska town when 3,200 workers lose their jobs https://apnews.com/article/tyson-closure-workers-lexington-nebraska-beef-plant-638e615f6225bc7452767d2bc836890c
Tyson beef plant closure will lay off 3,200 workers, threatening a small Nebraska town

Tyson Foods is closing its beef plant in Lexington, Nebraska, laying off 3,200 workers next month in a town of just 11,000. Nearly a third of the town’s population will be out of work, causing spinoff layoffs in local businesses and threatening to unravel the small town. Workers who bought homes and sent their children to college will be stuck with bills they won’t be able to pay. Hundreds of families may be forced to pack up and leave. Local businesses struggling without enough customers may have to join them. State agencies are responding with the urgency of a natural disaster, but the workers still have no clear plan for what comes next.
