@DavMicRot Yes they really want everyone except a select few friends to be poorer and with deadlier crime

Republicans want to export their model of poverty & crime to the rest of US.

Now they're blaming crime on tax cuts

@xtYao @daniela_witten Same. Actually it’s my son that wants packed lunch. My daughters just take snacks that I make sure are available every morning

Someone posted in the moms group that their kiddo vomited at school after dad packed a literal moldy food item in the kiddo’s lunch 🤮 and all the moms were like HOLD UP—HE PACKS LUNCH?

@SarahEBond Holy crap. This is awesome. Just booked flights to Vienna for my family for Christmas and was looking for 4-7th grade friendly books on Marcus Aurelius. Going to order and hope for the best

While I'm taking a pause from diapers and snuggles to tweet, my book, Accounting for Slavery, is now out as an audiobook. 75% off ($5!) here: audiobooks.com/promotions/pro…

It took me a while to fully understand the posit logo, but it's clearly a statement on the superiority of #rstats forsaking = as the default assignment operator

@yuanyi_z Me neither

I don’t understand how the British ever conquered all these hot places.

@natsechobbyist Count your blessings

@Taniel @joshtpm Sanchez had a good door to door get out the vote campaign. Impressive for sheriff.

❗️Voters have ousted the sheriff of Alameda County (Oakland), in the East Bay. He’d been in office for four terms, and NEVER faced any opponent, while overseeing a deadly jail and abusive conditions. He conceded yesterday… in a county bigger than SF. boltsmag.org/oaklands-sheri…

Jackie Robinson in 1964: "A new breed of Republicans has taken over the GOP. It is a new breed which is seeking to sell to Americans a doctrine which is as old as mankind – the doctrine of racial division, the doctrine of racial prejudice, the doctrine of white supremacy."

@bryanbehar I demonstrated this for my kids, 8 and 11, and they hadn’t seen it before and didn’t care

Flipping quarters off my elbow, as did every kid on the schoolyard, because Fonzie’s cousin did it the night before.

@prof_gabriele I struggled to learn Husserl’s theory of cultural production before I learned graph theory. But can’t vouch for others. BTW I think I read 3 books due to drinking with historians last year

@prof_gabriele I agree with you. Cultural production is different than biology. But some people are going to find this compelling.

@prof_gabriele These are pretty standard tools in statistics and computer science. I’m curious how they infer connectedness and graph properties. Will seem reasonable to people with CS background

@JuliaMancuso @MillerBode @MikaelaShiffrin I still can’t stand listening to Bob Costas because of the BS he said about @MillerBode then. NBC should have dumped him for that

Anyone else agree the media has come a long way since '06 and @MillerBode failing to medal? Everyone so supportive of @MikaelaShiffrin and her failure to medal in an individual event. Athletes are human too :)

@usskiteam @fisalpine @MikaelaShiffrin @TeamUSA @NBCOlympics @Olympics We love @MikaelaShiffrin. Olympics is the least interesting part of the ski season.

Just going to leave this right here ⬇️ •73 World Cup wins •47 World Cup slalom wins •116 World Cup podiums •3 Olympic medals (2 gold) •11 World Championship medals (6 gold) •8 Crystal Globes •3 Overall titles …AND Mikaela is currently 1️⃣st in the @fisalpine standings.

🤮Aucun athlète ne devrait recevoir ce type de message!Ces gens n’ont aucune idée de tous les sacrifices que l’on fait au quotidien pour notre sport. Chaque athlète devrait être supporté et non shamé!Car oui moi aussi j’ai reçu ce genre de message après ma ‘décevante 4ème place’

@dingding_peng Does anyone use Edward? Stan works too

@mikesimonsen Mostly appalling. It makes the Olympics much less interesting than the Wold Cup, which has plenty of other problems

Mind boggling? Foreshadowing? Frightening? Appalling?

@varsha_venkat_ Some of us didn’t give much thought to US history until 2016. I didn’t and am trying to catch up. Drinking with historians has helped, but I know I have significant gaps in my knowledge
