    The souls of the dead are carried in the seed of successive generations. There will be no second Hitler, but how will the world bear the return of Chinggis Khan? The divine right of kings was snuffed out centuries ago, but nothing we say will convince our daughter to relinquish

    My daughter is 3 and can carry on a conversation in Proto-Elamite. The faculty at the U of C Oriental Institute were shocked at our warped priorities, until the truth became undeniable: reincarnation is real. But it takes 7,000 years. Until now, the children born to our species

    Over the years I've seen old pictures of the moving desks of the Central Social Institution of Prague, but I had no idea they were still in use.

    Here's a stark example of how white flight worked in Chicago: class photos from West Pullman Elementary on the Far South Side in 1969 and 1974. These were posted on Facebook by a white guy I know whose family stayed in the neighborhood; shared with his permission.

    Oh yes! Straight from the heart of the country, the student body presidents at all Big10 schools demand fossil fuel divestment. It's the first time students from an entire conference have spoken as one.

    4/ We are progressives. We don’t just make things up because we want them to believe they are true like Republicans do. And we admit it when we are wrong. One of the most critical skills of engineering is verifying your base assumptions. I invite you to do this as well.

    2/ Later, Twitter released an open source directory of accounts they suspended for being Russian Sock puppets. I crosschecked the two lists - Tweets with harassment from “Bernie Bros,” and Russian sock puppets. There was a large overlap. Not all, but statistically significant.

    1/ This is a post that some people aren’t going to want to hear, but it’s still true. Please RT. For the 2016 election I received a ridiculously large amount of vitriol from “Bernie Bros.” I critiqued Sanders vigorously about it. I still was tracking my mentions from Gamergate.

    SUVs are dangerous and destroying the earth, so it's disturbing to see de Blasio let the NYPD ramp up their purchasing, instead of buying cheaper, more energy efficient, less deadly sedans
