Is walking against traffic not universally accepted? Is there a camp of people who walk with traffic, and my parents have simply indoctrinated me otherwise? What’s going on here?

My new post: US Postal Service trucks average 28 years old & badly need to be replaced. Electric mail trucks would be cheaper to fuel, easier to maintain, & produce radically less noise, air, & carbon pollution. Sounds like some good stimulus spending! vox.com/energy-and-env…

"To restrict the freedom of white Americans, just because nonwhite Americans are dying, is an egregious violation of the racial contract." Searing stuff from Adam Serwer 🍝. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Beautiful breaking news: after long years of incredibly hard work by students + faculty, the Cornell trustees just voted to divest from fossil fuel. Along w/Brown, they take divestment deep into the Ivies--a huge signal to Wall St. Such thanks to all who fight @howarth_cornell

Friendly reminder that nurses have to restrain violent, confused, intoxicated, and belligerent people all the time. And we make it happen without crushing anyone’s windpipe. #BlackLivesMatter

So, years ago I quite accidentally injected the phrase “epistemic closure” into political discourse. This became a buzzword for five minutes, but a lot of people misunderstood it as effectively just a pretentious synonym for “stuck in an echo chamber” or “closed-minded.”

Want to depress yourself? Read this interview with Joe Manchin. He's against doing anything, even a Clean Electricity Standard. He loves fossil fuels. He doesn't want to get ambitious with reconciliation. He's just awful. washingtonexaminer.com/policy/energy/…

Chris Hayes calls out Fox News for lying about windmills being the source of power outages in Texas,. "They want to take every policy issue and turn it into some painful culture war idiocy... They want to turn into a culture war, like the libs don’t want you to have power."

I think the path followed by electric cars over the past decade are a good way of thinking about this stupid debate about meat, and about the policy that will get us to a good outcome here.
