Serious question based on a failed conversation w a neighbor who probably now thinks I’m incredibly rude In don’t-interrupt cultures, like Minnesota, how do you signal that the convo needs to shift? Like if someone is responding in a way that’s off-point for what you need, do you just wait it out?

Fascinating review of a book on civil servants under Trump 1, arguing that their professional ethos does not engender "moral courage" (& academic public administration has not helped). Implicitly invites us to imagine what structures & communities would create identities to resist authoritarianism

My kid’s other parent is neurotypical, jury’s out on the kid, and related to that, one of the many uncomfortable realizations I’ve had as a parent is that a lot of the ways I’m neurodivergent are developmentally appropriate for a preschooler
