Hello! 👋🏼 My tweets are a bit of travel, politics (but I try to keep it light), technology, life in Switzerland and Europe, and the occasional offbeat absurdist nonsense (the best kind). I’m mighty friendly... please say hi! Cheers from Zürich ❤️

The speeches at the RNC just seem a little tone-deaf, considering that most Americans right now can't even *afford* cocaine

Me in therapy

@apelad Why those flirty little fruits!

Nick Sandmann: "The media portrayed me as an aggressor with a relentless smirk on my face."

@mimsicality Great news.

COVID Update August 25: Let's talk about what is being whispered about out loud. (No, not the pool boy.) The October surprise of a vaccine announcement. Get ready. It will happen. And it is getting harder to know whether it will be ready when it does.

@khanreaper @nytimes What did you replace it with? I’d love to cut NYT but like their mix of coverage. Just not the tone/slant.

why are cartoon suns always wearing sunglasses? what the hell are they protecting their eyes from

@RichChumney 🤮

Jerry Falwell Jr. just confirmed to me he has submitted his resignation to Liberty’s board. “It’s a relief,” he said. “The quote that keeps going through my mind this morning is Martin Luther Ling Jr: ‘free at last, free at last, thank God almighty I’m free at last.”

In the ⁦@nytimes⁩, ⁦@gailcollins⁩ wrote the best 2 sentences in a huge story looking at high/lowlights of #RNCConvention2020 #RNC2020 ...I am howling over here!

@AlexWhitcomb Yep

Who did this?? 😂

DT/45 supporters are sharing this on FB. I don't have the desire to tell them than the man cloaked in white is Charles Manson.

When Lindsey Graham saw this photo of Jerry Falwell he said, "Thoughts and prayers for that most sacred bond, between a corrupt evangelical preacher, his wife and their hunky young poolboy. As it says in either the Bible or my diary, hubba hubba. Let the RNC commence!"

It’s not about “kink-shaming” (I mean, are you serious?) Its about decades- centuries - millennia of Christian/religious hypocrisy that has led to countless tortured lives, especially in the LGBTQ community, and continues to.

@JerryFalwellJr endless hypocrisy. Great job representing those Christian values. I don’t care that you like watching your wife get boned by the pool boy. I care that you are such a shocking liar and hypocrite, (formerly) with a big platform. Why did you judge others so harshly?

.@LibertyU please by all means put @JerryFalwellJr back in charge, he has done a great job representing Liberty’s values...

@BJblitz95 @Austen @patrickc That’s a funny comparison, the Swiss system and the Chinese system could not be more different. Keep in mind Switzerland is a direct democracy: any citizen can go through a process to ultimately change the constitution. It’s very transparent and by law, everyone votes.

@EricMueller @Austen @patrickc Interesting that this is how it works! On face it looks similar in China, were the Politburo always passes decision unanimously. Although there outsized power is very concentrated in specific individuals

I can’t stop thinking about this. From @patrickc’s questions: Why are so many things so much nicer in Switzerland and Japan? patrickcollison.com/questions
