And we have now progressed from data analysis to policy recommendations.

I told her that we'd calculate the cash value of her candy haul, that I'd ask her to raid her piggy bank and donate 1/3 the candy cash value to a local food bank, and that I'd add on a 5X match.

Anyone need a spooky nature story for Halloween? It all happened this summer…

I was on the beach at midnight. It wasn’t actually raining but with so much heavy mist in the air it might as well have been. And it was dark as could be by the bay. I was just out for a walk before bed.

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.

Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

since we're doing baseball here, let's revive that favorite post prompt: what would your walk on music be if you were a relief pitcher. for a long time mine was "how soon is now" but lately i've been convinced you could stitch together a long enuff family-friendly sequence from "fuck the pain away"

Made a thing. It does have a specific function, but I'd bet cash money nobody would be able to guess what that function is.

“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have.

I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

Donald and Vladimir at Tanagra. It's a beautiful place, really beautiful. We had some great conversations. A lot of people are saying Temba's arms were wide. But then the walls fell. I'm not kidding, they just fell right down. On some guy called Shaka. So we're gonna get some contractors to fix that

A Democratic Party with any spirit would stage a press conference every single day to present Donald Trump with one sarcastic award after another.

The Dennis Hastert Award for Enabling Pedophilia
The Richard Nixon Memorial Trophy for Lawlessness
The Blue Ribbon for Setting a Record Federal Deficit
Trump: Since 1978 the Kennedy Center honors have been amongst the most prestigious awards. I wanted one, never able to get one. I would have taken it. I waited and waited and waited and I said to hell with it, I'll become chairman. I will give myself an honor. Next year we'll honor trump, okay?
