Do I need say more . . .

The gulf is so WIDE between this description of love and the actions of many political leaders who claim they love America and the American people. People have been bamboozled to think these men will ever love America well and the whole world will pay for their naivety 😢

Sermon yesterday was on love - 1 Cor. 13

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.”

For ages I’ve wanted to see this stat, share of students with parents born outside the US, when the universities post their class diversity numbers after making final admission decisions bc I know The Common App totally collected that info but the data is never shared, wonder why . . . 😚

Anyone else feel like the wider American world SEVERELY underestimates the share of students at their elite institutions, @ both the undergrad & grad lvl, who are children of immigrants. Even the folks checking the white box on the form often have have parents born in Germany, Romania, Greece, etc 👀

FYI read the NYT article makes clear that the advertising tone was a direction from above (Sony) and then Justin seeing the bad press she was getting for the tone tried to make himself look better by taking a different approach, basically she was set up to fail by him & Sony . . .

Thx definitely need to find an occasion to gift myself a Pilot Elite 95, def a sucker for the inlaid nib 😍 Enjoy your pens!

What pens are these?

Will add that you can find some great more classic style pens at more affordable prices if you’re open to getting used pens from a place like r/penswap

Are you looking for pens that are maybe more upscale than a TWISBI Eco? Since those are delightful pens and well under $150

Lastly I’m excited to be a resource for the brave souls considering a social science MD-PhD (especially in policy or economics). Please don’t hesitate to reach out if this is you!
