Every time I see an interview with the Secretary of Transportation he’s talking about how terrified he is of the subway
Duffy: "She wants to take people off the road and she's taxing people to do it, raising money for the subway system in New York. But then, to put people in the subway -- the subway is dirty! There's violence. There's criminals. It's not safe ... By the way, I like freedom. Let me drive my car."

I keep checking, but there's no end in sight for the heat wave in India. Reminiscent of the opening scene in "The Ministry for the Future," this is just brutal, deadly heat and humidity.

“We don’t need more houses if they aren’t in dense cities!” Ok, but I don’t know how to make a bunch of Americans fundamentally different than they are. People really do like their big houses and their yards. They aren’t pretending.

Horses and camels evolved in North America. Bison are a relatively recent arrival!
What’s something that’s a banal observation in your field, but which really blows students’ minds the 1st time they encounter it?
I’ll go 1st—when we talk about how technological history gets narrated & I say "no human being has ever lived in a historical period—they’ve only lived in the present"
