Whatever you do, don't smoke an entire brisket at a job interview, it's a lot of equipment to bring in, it takes a really long time to do it right and those conference rooms have notoriously poor ventilation

The literacy crisis is not just referring to people's ability to literally read and write. It's also people's inability to read for context. I've been a public educator for over 20 years and I have never, ever seen it this bad.

Some unintended consequences I suspect the rise of AI agents will create: 1. Restaurants that only take reservations by hand written letter, or more likely, don't take them at all. 2. Gigs where you can only buy tickets in person. 3. Businesses that operate without websites.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

When you elect more Democrats, they try to pass climate policy. When you elect more Republicans, they try to block climate policy. This is not Democrats' fault. Republicans make their own choices & are responsible for those choices. They are not helpless victims of the way climate activists talk.

CNN is about to travel the same dark path of WaPo and CBS News. They will say it's not true. They will ask you to ignore what you see and disbelieve what you hear. Instead, I suggest you support independent media. You can start with Democracy Docket but there are many others. demdock.com/4w6emld

It's called film "footage" because camera operators initially held the cameras with their feet. That changed after a film shoot in 1931, when an operator got a foot cramp and was forced to hold the camera in his hands. The "footage" he got that day was extraordinary. That man's name? Hans Cameraman.

Holding this maternal healthcare event alongside Harris was a smart move by El-Sayed, and a necessary one. He needs to strengthen Black support in Michigan. The divisions of the 2024 uncommitted movement were real, and Black voters haven’t forgotten how ugly that election became. #HealthcareForAll

I realized this, weirdly enough, on January 6. We had a series of consecutive Zoom meetings that day, and at one point I got brusquely asked “David are you watching the news?? Pay attention!” Future boss: “yeah, it’s terrible China got nuked, but we NEED THAT MONTHLY EARNINGS REPORT RIGHT NOW”

Others, imagining that Democrats are “so bad at politics” that they might lose in 2028 to J.D. Vance with the “wrong candidate”, disagree with me on this. To each their own. 🤷‍♂️

But seriously now: Whoever the nominee is—Kelly, Buttigieg, etc. etc.—How they govern, and what kind of a leader they will be, will be more important than what kind of Electoral College boxes they check. It is my contention that the Democrats need to worry about the former more than the latter.

We go through this drama every eight-ish years, every Democrat having their little candidate fan club they’re a member of. I recall Judge Judy, in early 2020, claiming “Bloomberg is the ONLY choice.” Not saying you’re Judge Judy here, Tom Nichols. I’m just saying. 😐

Two thoughts here: 1.) Kelly seems fine. He even has some cred on fighting Trump, having gone toe-to-toe with Hegseth and generally being a force opposing the politicization of the military. 2.) You clearly seem to think he’s “obviously the best candidate”. I would caution against that mindset.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
Martin Kao, CEO of defense contractor Navatek, poses next to Sen. Susan Collins for a photo. Collins is holding a model of a boat in her hands. Behind them is a large sign with the Navatek logo.

Jake Sullivan asked what keeps me up at night. Not any single purge. It's that we're dismantling the apparatus that lets us see clearly — mid-war, and mid-competition with China. China is building capacity. We're purging the officers who spent decades watching them.
