For nearly a decade I've thought the best thing for this country would be for networks simply to stop covering him. News is news, and not everything he says is news. And now we can thank Trump himself for this salutary development.

Week after week this is the worst kind of high school cafeteria table. This conv "abt politics" in fact only is abt who is popular or not. It never veers toward what matters in politics—making our lives better. Little wonder voters approach politics the way teens approach the cafeteria table.

I've seen a lot of these guys and even known some. This picture of the excomminicant from Kansas somehow drives home something I've said often—this is as much Catholicism as going to a Star Trek convention is being a Klingon, and I think the underlying psychological motive is very similar.

I understand the unspoken, unsavory motives behind a lot of moves from Chicago to NW Indiana. So let's be clear—until the red state Indiana stops sending its torrent of guns to Chicago, I won't think of any part of IN as the Chicago area. The Hammond Hoosiers can go. They can't take the city.

Thinking of universities as places for leaders and innovators rather than scholars and students hasn't been doing anyone any good. It's pervasive, the shift was glacial and you'd miss it if you weren't watching closely. Now everybody just accepts it. But it's a social calamity.

I can't quite explain why but this infuriates me every time I receive it. It is less, I think, that average users burn so much energy. It is more that this is an obvious guilt incentive sent robotically to me month after month despite there being no cause for guilt and no incentive.

You're going to focus on rhe weird way he thinks peace comes via repression. But look past it. I'm struck most by how paltry his imagination is. Abundance? Medical care? It's all sensual and carnal. It's like he doesn't know fulfillment or meaning are possible. Read a poem, Elon.
