Median home value in 1950 was $7,354. Using official CPI data (24 in 1950 to 336 in Sept 2026), that equals about $102,800 today. Current median existing-home price is $417,500. The signs are there, and we'll soon find out! Take a close look at markets like Bend, Oregon 🤯

I was at both @HomeDepot and @Costco today in the Bay Area. Both were deader than I have ever seen on a Saturday afternoon. Friends, the economy is on life support. We are f-ed.

One of my most significant found photo collections to date. A few hundred color Kodachromes of the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island. IN COLOR. Very few color slides of this event exist. I found what may be the largest known collection of these in existence. Kodachrome film had only been out since 1936. It was slow and expensive. The fair was built on a man-made island to celebrate the new Bay Bridge and the Golden Gate Bridge. They called it the Pageant of the Pacific. It ran in 1939 and 1940. Almost everything that survives is black and white. Charles Cushman shot some color frames that are now at Indiana University. OpenSFHistory has published six 1940 night color slides and a smaller number of daytime ones. A few others are in private hands. That is most of the known color record outside of this set. These came out of an estate sale in the Oakland hills. The Gayway with Sally Rand’s Nude Ranch and the sunburst lights down the middle of the street. The Tower of the Sun lit at night and reflected in the lagoon. The Court of Pacifica. The Japanese pavilion. Crowds in hats on the wide midways. Fountains and statues. The whole fair still sitting in the mounts. What a time to be alive in San Francisco. I am working through this collection but I've published the first 40 or so here (more to come): flickr.com/photos/thomashawk…

“The White House is not instituting an assault on the Free Press, something which I cherish. It is instituting an assault on the FAKE NEWS, something that has grown like Cancer in our beloved United States of America…” - President Donald J. Trump

What if bookmarks worked like a house? brainshouse.com/home/landing… You know where your keys are, where your coffee mugs live, where you keep the good snacks. Brain's House uses the same mental model. Put things where they belong, and you'll always remember where they are.

You'd end up owning outright what everyone else is scraping, licensing, or litigating over, verified, fact-checked, human-made work with a clean chain of custody from the moment it was made.
