If someone said this to me their main advantage would be the curiosity I would feel about a person shooting their shot despite such a weak grasp of idiomatic language

I don’t see these moving in opposite directions as sustainable. Looks like there’s only been one other time they diverged meaningfully.

I know I'm losing my mind because MF.FP is starting to look interesting.

It's so cool how everyone in power everywhere is stupid

Single B credit backed annuities. What could go wrong.

Okay, so maybe I wasn't too mean to him ...

It did not occur to me how much this last week has been a red letter day for basically every prominent woman in economics

The boys from Brookfield at it again

In 2019, Harvard Professor Harvey Mansfield made a joke in his intro political theory class about male students getting "yellow fever" (i.e., dating Asian women).

The "othering" and blatant sexualization of Asian women at Harvard is horrendous.

Summers went on to describe what he saw as his “best shot”: that the woman finds him “invaluable and interesting” and concludes “she can’t have it without romance / sex.”

It’s sort of clarifying to see him describe this dynamic so directly www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

This use of professional leverage to demand sex is, with some variations, what was alleged against Harvey Weinstein and what Stormy Daniels alleged against Trump

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

At least seven faith leaders arrested at Broadview ICE facility protest (RNS) — 'I've got bruises all over my body,' the Rev. Michael Woolf, who was thrown to the ground and arrested by police, told RNS.

Organizers told me that at least 7 faith leaders were among those arrested on Friday.

In a statement posted on X, DHS referred to demonstrators as "imbeciles" who need to "get a job."

One pastor told me "this is our job," adding, "to advocate for the oppressed. religionnews.com/2025/11/15/a...

This is fucking batshit evil bananas

"As the stakes get smaller, the knives get sharper."

On the plus side, I've developed an absolutely visceral sense of how important management is in microcap land.

It’s turtles (personality disorders) all the way down.

Tell them they’re mad from me. I just got told I’m “Darth Vader” and an “arrogant overlord” for drafting a completely normal and impersonal memo about regulatory compliance.

Never, ever, under any circumstances, agree to participate in the turnaround of a sub scale non-profit. Just don't do it. Life is too short.

Something the US needs to accept too is that without a large-scale correction imposing consequences on a large number of people, the crisis of governance here will continue indefinitely

If the US system remains trapped in an endless knife fight between a party of good government and a party of nihilistic governance then Europeans need to accept that the US will no longer be a stable partner long after Trump is gone

This is not even in the top ten for Noah.

There is not going to be a deal to end the government shutdown in the next few weeks. That means decline in US air traffic capacity just when the Thanksgiving travel season hits.

A breakdown of US air traffic triggers a seismic effect on global transport infrastructure that would make the escalating effects of the America Crisis on the global system impossible to play down.

More broadly, heavily-Latino counties moved far to the right in NJ last year, and back to the left this year:
