Absolutely love this six-year-old’s take on economics. Let’s play with it, shall we? You decide not to work? Household income: $65,000 ➡️ $40,000 So, $25,000 removed from the budget, spend, and taxable income. Fair enough! Now you just don’t have that money to spend on shops, coffee, meals out, trips, trains, etc. So what, right? You’re happy without stuff! Ah. Lots of businesses shut. So your husband loses his job. And her husband. And her husband. And her husband. Uhoh. So: $0. With babies. No! You tell me, women didn’t work before! Yes, and we were all poorer. Dramatically poorer. You’re not going back to a cosy trad fantasy. You’re going back to overcrowded housing, low wages, and limited opportunity. Two incomes didn’t break the economy. They ARE the modern economy. Sorry!

This went from normal to chaotic REAL fast… An Uber driver said everything was fine until he picked up one passenger who immediately seemed off. While he was on a hands-free call, she suddenly claimed she felt unsafe, called customer service, and even asked them to involve the police. Then it got worse… she refused to get out of the car, saying she was afraid he’d drive off with her package in the trunk. What started as a routine ride turned into a complete standoff. If you were the driver, what would you do in that situation, wait it out, or call the police yourself to remove her? And who do you think is actually in the wrong here?

@MaryBowdenMD You must not know how this works. US grads get first dibs. Outlying residencies that serve underserved parts of America are filled by immigrants and foreigners. We don't have enough medical schools to fill the residency spots.

150 medical students from a single school in Pakistan just took residency spots from US medical students.

@changingstar0 @justMizuyuki Yes, not permitting 10 years of appeals in more extreme situations would certainly reduce cost. And again, much of the cost is allocation of fixed costs, not incremental

@nmilesof @justMizuyuki “streamlining and reducing bureaucracy” is not some panacea that gets you to all your desired policy outcomes. You will not actually save that much money even if you were maximally efficient

@Colman44 @secnumbersguy Florida ran through the sec and couldn’t beat a .500 B1G team. Reminiscent of football season ever since NIL became a factor. 0 title contenders left

@LisaBritton That’s because over the last 40 years education has shifted from applying concepts and problem solving, to simply rewarding organized task masters.

Boys are behind girls in education. We often hear “Boys need more recess!” or “We need all-boys schools!” but experts don’t know if these things will actually help because there isn’t enough research to support it. We need more research that actually measures boys separately so that we can effectively address the challenges facing boys and young men.

@SpenceDysonFSU @TrnsTraditional Many Arab and Asian countries as well, including Australia. Canada it’s also common. Simplifies cleaning, reduces UTIs, STDs and penile cancer. All well documented.

@nmilesof @TrnsTraditional Odd that it's only US and Jewish doctors that recommend it. Imagine thinking something that a boy is born with isn't necessary or even hazardous to the child. Utter nonsense.

@nmilesof @stabmarine @BoringBiz_ The Ivy League graduate has proven they can regurgitate information. A Staff NCO has proven they can lead, manage under extreme stress, and maintain accountability. One has a piece of paper; the other has years of operational experience. I’ll take the NCO's discipline over a GPA.

@changingstar0 @justMizuyuki I have no issue putting to death terrorists and murderers. Cost can be reduced by streamlining and reducing bureaucracy. Much of the cost estimates showing the death penalty is more is driven by allocation of otherwise fixed expenses (i.e allocation of DA’s time).

@nmilesof @justMizuyuki I believe taking a life is always bad, and needs extreme circumstances to justify, which the death-penalty lacks. Costs cannot be brought down lower than life-imprisonment

@AndrewSteinwold Makes perfect sense. Upper middle class leans red. They want to leave the crazies before they’re taxed into poverty

Just made the mistake of peeking at my 401k - the market is doing so poorly that not only have my YTD contributions been essentially wiped out, I’m several thousand dollars below where I was on January 1st. Cool cool cool

@nickythegood In fact, there are other 35 year olds that enjoy going to bars. Maybe take a break from posting "hey I play dad posts" and head to bar rater than assuming.

Weekends don’t exist once you’re in the burbs because kids dominate. It’s just time. Days don’t matter. However, 35 year olds who still live in the city, getting hammered at bars are just as confusing. Not that it doesn’t sound like fun, but your friends aren’t at the bar with you, they’re in the burbs at soccer practice, with me. So who are you getting hammered with?
Murray Hill Guy@MurrayHillGuy1

How do people in the suburbs genuinely look forward to Friday night on the couch, Saturday morning at Costco, and call that a weekend? Like you really moved out of the city just to LARP as your parents at 34?

@nmilesof @DasLittleBodhi @number_pizza111 there def is, esp rural small towns. a large portion of US working age males have just dropped out of unemployment stats bc they’ve stopped seeking work. americans are more likely to move around to chase work bc it’s an ECONOMIC ZONE where family & community ties aren’t valued.

If you drive around Mississippi you’ll find 3,000 square foot homes, towns where everyone owns a boat, middle-class families with RVs, high schools with football fields, and a very costly things average people own. They just can’t convert that prosperity to health and wellbeing.
