Biggest ever one-week drop in cost of shipping a container from Shanghai to New York. Since hitting a July peak below $6000 pr 40ft box, the Drewy global #container #shipping index has seen a sharp reversal, slumping 13% this past week alone to $4168, slowing the YTD advance to 36% while the YOY remains elevated at 167%. The latest weakness driven by steep declines on the Shanghai to Rotterdam (-17%) and NY (-21%) routes, the latter being the largest one-week drop on record.

I prosecuted sexual assault #sa cases in Texas.
I prosecuted these cases for 17 years.
I never prosecuted an undocumented immigrant for rape.

I prosecuted multiple Christian pastors for #rape.
As a descendant of a holocaust survivor, I have to speak up against this hate.

@duglop I have toyed with the idea of becoming a snowbird. Time in Maui last winter really made it hard to want to keep doing this year round.

@duglop I feel that hibernation pull tho. Going to be a long winter. 😉

Justice Dept asks court to REJECT Steve Bannon's request for prison release:

"There has been no change in circumstances justifying a reversal of the court’s ruling lifting the stay of his sentence. Likewise, the defendant has failed to justify any modification of his sentence"

@singlemaltgirl Damn I wish I was closer. I'd come and help.

Buttigieg on CNN: This is a strategy to get us talking about the latest crazy thing that he did, whatever urban legend he amplifies right now, it's about people eating cats or geese or whatever because he cannot afford for us to be talking about his record. #Asswaffle

@duglop Give me another month or so and this will be ME on the daily.

Stephen Curry: “My beautiful half Haitian mother will be roasting a pig tonight, just like Kamala Harris did during the debate.”

@singlemaltgirl and the fact we all knew what she meant is fabulous.

@elbutterfield She is terrifying. The news today about her has been horrific.

@elbutterfield Oh how I miss Morning Glories. Sigh.

Sending all the neighborly vibes your way. Perhaps you're leading the 🌊

@elbutterfield I still think she looks like the Saw mask.

@QueenOfEverything You are braver than I am. I swim in a sea of red. I hope your signs are left alone. 💙

This is your reminder to check your voter status.

@YouInMyEye yes! 💙

Next week, in-person early voting will begin in some states, including Pennsylvania. Even though we won the debate, the races in the swing states are still incredibly close! We all need to get involved and activated in these final 54 days!

@QueenOfEverything I don't blame them a bit for canceling.
