I’m still thinking about this, actually.

School kids go through mass shooter drills these days the way we went through fire drills when we were their age. And it’s OUR fault. The least we can do is let them have their own ridiculous and loud JOY. “6-7” makes it them laugh and they’ve EARNED it.

And NO LAUGHING!

Absolutely no giggling, chortling, chuckling or snickering while watching the speech. It is A Very Serious Speech.

They are arriving because of the mass mobilizations and they have figured out that Twitter isn't going to be the main space to monitor activity.

Dammit, Susan Stamberg and Mitch McConnell are both trending, and for the wrong reasons. 🤬

I’m so sorry, how horrible

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?

I don’t think I’m going to survive Julia’s adolescence, since she’s already decided that everything I do is horribly embarrassing, including looking at things, not looking at things, walking and not-walking, talking and not-talking.

Hey, can we agree to burn down your house?

No.

How about we just burn down the second floor?

No.

Well, what if we just burn down your garage?

No.

Dear Ezra Klein, Bodily Autonomy Isn’t a Bargaining Chip Let's see if you're willing to walk the talk

Dear Ezra Klein, bodily autonomy is not a bargaining chip. What rights are you willing to give up? Let’s see you walk the talk. The burger is on me. open.substack.com/pub/vajenda/...

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."

Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.

Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.

We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

Now is the time of day when democratic politicians, under the apparent impression I have much more money than I do, barrage me with emails and texts.

A golden mix dog stands in a shallow creek, as contented as can be

Got antsy and took Harry for an offsite walk. He’s an old guy but he still loves to sniff along the trail and stand in the creek.

Since most of the branches are already having difficulty finding enough recruits who meet the basic fitness standards, I doubt this is going to work out.

What the fuck are we even doing here? Disgraceful.

I didn’t even know what this is until today, and I will recall the time before I knew what this is with fondness
