If you're all giddy about Trump's win, and you crossing your fingers that this time he'll be the adult in the room, I offer you this from Matt Labash: "One thing we’ve learned from the past decade is that Trump has changed everybody else much more than everybody else has changed

I wanted to love this post, and then I read all the tweets you posted—even in the last week—that countered your advice. Nevertheless, I wish you the best and hope that you escape all this in peace.

I'm rethinking my citizenship. One of them blabbering about nothing and pardoning everyone suggested by the interns, and the other selling perfume and Xmas ornaments. Some other country make me an offer, please.

In her new article, "The Myth of Female Agency," Louise Perry argues that “very few people are highly agentic.” I would say that almost all people have the capacity to be highly agentic, but many are prevented from realizing their agency because they have an external locus

Coaches bailing a day after winning league titles. Teams pulling out of bowl because so many players have transferred. Players on playoff teams entering the portal. Playoff teams hosting portal visitors week of the game. Portal agents working the phones. Nothing to see here.

Since the start of the 2011 season, Texans have won 8 AFC South titles, more than the Colts (2), Titans (2) and Jags (2) combined.

Never realized how much the Chiefs depended on funding from USAID

I'm going to start being myself on here. I would recommend that you unfollow me for your own sanity.

I hate the Eagles and I'm tired of the Chiefs, so that combo made for a boring game b/c I find it hard to cheer for the Eagles, even though they have spectacular talent. I found the HT show to be vacuous. If you love Lamar and know the words, it would be awesome, but 10% of the

I didn't watch all of the ads carefully, but I wasn't moved by any of them. I also don't think we need to keep giving men what I call the "episodic TV treatment," where they are unsophisticated idiots without a role in the world, always standing in the way of progress, and

I did not vote for the asshole DJT, but so far I like 45% of what he's done, and 5% of the way he's doing it. At least someone is actually in charge, instead of signing whatever the interns are passing in front of him just a month ago. The same interns who cannot read the room.

I was driving north out of San Fran last month, and it was still totally odd to see a 100% autonomous vehicle doing its thing on Market Street. It's going to take a bit for humans to get used to seeing something like that in rural America.

I took an autonomous cab ride in Scottsdale, and the best thing about it was not having to talk to the driver. I did anyway, and it didn't disagree with a single one of my political views.

If you're curious about the impact of climate change on extreme flooding, here's a good analysis. Climate change IS real. Flooding is NOT getting worse. Using this catastrophe to push for changes in energy policy is disingenuous. There are other ways to honestly fight for changes

I need to write about this in depth some time, but "diversity" and "inclusion" needs to be defined more broadly. I'm more of a libertarian (small "l") than a Progressive or Conservative, but neither diversity nor inclusion, at the moment, have room for differing political
