Four young individuals stand indoors, dressed casually. They are in a school setting, with a motivational board visible behind them, displaying "Odyssey of the Mind" and promoting appreciation for teachers and staff.

A classroom with students seated around a table, engaged in discussion with an adult. Educational posters are displayed on the walls, and bookshelves are filled with various materials. A large window lets in natural light.

A classroom setting with two people sitting at a desk cluttered with various office supplies, books, and a laptop. Shelves filled with books and educational materials are in the background. A bright and organized learning environment.

A classroom setting with several children sitting on the floor and engaged in activities around a table. An adult is leaning over the table, interacting with two kids who are drawing or writing. The room has shelves with books and educational materials. One child wears a shirt with "Pizza" written on it.

Today, I met with @barrettaps.bsky.social Student Council and fourth grade officers and they did not hold back. Better device balance, book reading over screens, smarter math apps. Then the teachers echoed it all. When students and staff align, we are all ears. #OneTeamOneAPS #APSSuptVisits

β€œMultifamily housing is for young renters and the poor while single family homes are for established adults with children” is a really pernicious folk theory about how housing markets should work that I think is foundational to so much bad housing policy at all levels of government.

The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.

'fraudulent amber alert' is the sort of thing that simply must have decades in prison attached to it because of how corrosive it is to one of the few remaining high-trust law enforcement/public safety mechanisms.

I'm constantly trying (/failing) to get this point across.

If you're a trained expert in a field, then it may be worthwhile to question the scientific consensus of your peers.

If you're not, the scientific consensus is absolutely the best you can do and it's arbitrary foolishness to disregard it.

β€œHousing for whom?” assumes a zero sum world in which we have to choose between building new market rate housing and building subsidized housing for poor people.

No such tradeoff exists. We can let the market serve people who can afford market rate housing AND subsidize housing for those who can’t.

Page 34: "An anonymous government is no government at all. It cannot be held accountable. A masked agent freely uses force without justifying his actions, and the public cannot name him to challenge his conduct."

Silver Linings Playbook - I love Jennifer Lawrence, and I had high expectations, but I thought it was a bad film - and The Imitation Game - which was aggressively mediocre and full of biopic cliches.

fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

There are an estimated 275,000 to 300,000 Americans who are living unsheltered on the streets.

If we put all of them in luxury hotel rooms for $500 per night, it would cost the taxpayer around $50 billion per year.

Homelessness is a policy choice.
