Have you all heard the clip where Pres. Trump is being asked about what DOGE will cut from the DoD and he keeps pivoting to “we’re going to go into Ft. Knox to make sure the gold is there”? He really sounds like he is not all there.

Tomorrow is the #TeslaTakeover, and there will be protests nationwide at Tesla dealerships. If you live in the Bay Area or anywhere else with a lot of Teslas on the road, you can get #BoycotT bumper stickers from boycott-tesla.org to pass out to Tesla owners who want to stand up for democracy.

One of my favorite in-class exercise ideas that I've stolen -- introduces surveys but really makes them think about operationalizing concepts. #TeachLearnSky
First two paragraphs of a survey design exercise, with the text:

"You and your group must develop the mid-term course evaluation for this class. This evaluation has the general goal of seeing how the class is going and how you’re feeling about the content/teaching methods/assignments/classroom atmosphere so far.
