Many "what's up with kids these days?" dinner table conversations turned into a co-authored NBER WP with my stepson that was covered in the New York Times this morning. Didn't have that on my life bingo card.

“A floating island of garbage…?” Referring to Puerto Rico???
“Poisoning the blood of our nation…?”
We have “murder in our genes….?”
Fuck these racists. Latino men of good will, have pride in yourselves and your ancestors. A vote for Trump is a vote against self-respect.

"Our largest city will be an engineering marvel. It will be global focal point of fashion, the arts, commerce, finance, and research. Trains running underground in a system that moves millions of people around a tiny island"
"And these trains will connect to the airports?"
No.

Do you think somebody possibly has video of Trump mocking the handicapped, demeaning US prisoners of war, boasting about sexually assaulting women, praising Vladimir Putin, or urging a violent attack on the US Capitol? That would be huge.

October is National #CoopMonth! At Cabot, we believe in the power of cooperation and collaboration. Being a cooperative means we're owned by our farmer members, and together, we've built a thriving community that works toward a more sustainable future. cabotcreamery.com/pages/our-…

Spoiler candidate @DrJillStein was just endorsed by the infamous Ku Klux Klan leader, David Duke. In 2016 and 2020, Duke endorsed Trump.
Stein "rejected" Duke's endorsement, but neatly forgot her funny tweet about Charles Koch endorsing Hillary in 2016.

Trump canceled both his 60 Minutes and CNBC interview. He declined to participate in another debate, and he is refusing to release any of his medical records. All of this makes us wonder: what is Kamala Harris hiding from us?
Another amazing demonstration of the Mechanical Turk - truly a wonder of the modern (well, 18th c.) technology.

i love the idea that AI is somehow going to replace customer service, as if this isn't something that already happened with endless phone tree labyrinths that mean it's physically impossible to talk to a human being

BREAKING: Bull Clinton is at a McDonalds in Georgia encouraging voters to support Kamala Harris. It’s all hands on deck in the last couple of weeks. Retweet to make sure all Americans see this incredible moment.

1/ Okay, it's time to weigh in on the permitting discussion. The letter from 118 climate scientists opposing the bipartisan EPRA bill is really upsetting and full of misinformation: nitter.cf/dan_kammen/status/1844…

Administrators said the decision was based on concerns that student journalists were unprepared for the responsibilities of reporting. But the move came after a spring semester in which The Guidon published multiple stories critical of the university buff.ly/3BIRNMf

Hey quick question. How did Pika manage to generate such a direct copy of a Terminator?

The university seems intent on destroying its truth-seeking function in order to get into the business of conferring social justice certifications. This is a mistake, not least because its comparative advantage in truth-seeking is a lot greater than in social justice certificates
The AAUP again suggesting faculty rights be subject to popular vote. Colleges can prioritize diversity; but not by letting a majority of faculty pick the approved view. Not to mention the First Amendment simply doesn't permit this on public campuses. aaup.org/report/diversity-eq…
How is this not illegal??? Cards Against Humanity is PAYING people who didn't vote in 2020 to apologize, make a voting plan, and post #DonaldTrumpIsAHumanToilet—up to $100 for blue-leaning people in swing states. I helped by getting a 2024 Election Pack: Apologize.lol
