MAKE IT STOP! This doesn't even make sense. Maybe (MAYBE!) if this were an AI company it would make sense, but it isn't!

@NWADoug Well, 2.5 years later and here’s an example. They “supported” him for president, which he had no chance of, and then he gets nominated as HHS secretary and they now are spending money to oppose him because it turns out they don’t *actually* support him. axios.com/2025/01/15/rfk…

@NWADoug Another issue is that if you support a crazy person in the primary, and the crazy person wins the primary, then even if the crazy person loses the general, it still moves the Overton window a bit toward the crazy side.

It was 4 months after 9/11. Maybe Osama funneled a poisoned pretzel to him. I really don’t know.

Andy Taylor@andymtaylor·14 Oca

I mean, I don’t really have a better explanation (because, again, I’m not into conspiracy theories so I don’t have a conspiracy theory), I just don’t buy the pretzel theory.

I’m not really into conspiracy theories but I never bought the official explanation on this one.

On January 13, 2002, President George W. Bush fainted after choking on a pretzel in the White House residence while watching a football game. The President fell from the couch to the floor, bruising his lower lip and scraping his face

@iowahawkblog I mean, I didn't know if it was "forewent" or "forgone" or what, but I knew if you posted it it was either (1) correct; or (2) meant as irony.

@iowahawkblog Actually since they're using the perfect and the perfect employs the past participle, it's "forgone".

@ProfRobAnderson Use lots of headings. Helps in 3 ways: 1. Easier to follow/read. 2. Helps the exam taker stay focused on the specific topic/subtopic being addressed. 3. Easier to transition between topics without having to come up with some segue from 1 part of the exam to another.

@dsamuelsohn @woodyreports @USATODAY FWIW, he has now missed 2/5 (or 40%) of the five close elections out of the last 11 elections total. (I don't count the 6 that anyone could have called because they weren't even close.)

English

Andy Taylor@andymtaylor·30 Eki

@dsamuelsohn @woodyreports @USATODAY If he had coin-flipped those, you would have expected him to get 1/2 (or 2 out of 4) right, and 1/2 (or 2 out of 4) wrong. Meaning that he picked got one more correct than if he had coin-flipped them.

If he’s right we’ll never hear the end of how his model got it right and if he’s wrong we’ll never hear the end of how it was wrong but it was “less wrong” than everyone else. 🙄

LOL. The man wrote a however-many-word thinkpiece 3 days ago complaining that the polls were all tied and then lo and behold his model is literally tied.
