Teaching writing and ethics to engineers, writing a book on George Eliot.

Good list.
in real terms, #7 would give states leverage to put an end to surges, #8 would give states the ability to outright stop construction of new detention facilities, #1 and #6 would slow the rate at which DHS could train and deploy officers, #2 and #10 would likely shrink the pool of recruits
I was in the midst of composing a Stancil thought when my 6 year old said, "Dad, this one has a bite in it!" while pointing at a chip in a ceramic dinner plate.

i do think that if you find yourself spending more than a few minutes a day obsessing over what another person who's largely politically aligned with you said or did on a social media website, you gotta go touch some grass (and i am talking about a lot of people here, including myself sometimes)
An underrated problem in us getting here: the dude who decided that it'd be cool if "million" and "billion" rhymed. Like if the word for 1,000,000,000 had been "fuckton" we probably could have dodged a lot of this mess.
again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are
his net worth is $253.2 billion.
so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire
and then do it again tomorrow
and again the day after that
and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months
