    Yes, I do crowdfunding. 🙂It accounts for a fairly small share of my income, but I do use it to support some low-paying or non-paying projects. If you'd like to pitch in: Thank you!

    I think it’s more complicated. I support travel restrictions even though I have traveled recently. I support travel restrictions because it would have been immoral for me not to undertake this travel. So I needed the state to remove the moral choice from me.

    Like, if politicians are unwilling to follow their own public health guidance, they should pause and think about whether the guidance is reasonable. And if they conclude it is reasonable, maybe they should then follow it.

    Opinion has lots of good language on danger of bias in TIX proceedings: UAlbany official "admitted that her team 'didn't include any information that was irrelevant to a finding for the referrals," a statement that begs the question–Who determined what was 'relevant'"?

    Opinion is biting in its criticism of UAlbany TIX coordinator/inv'r--court notes that she "admittedly altered the facts as reported to her" (about which her explanation a lower court had deemed "bordered on the incoherent") & might have improperly acted as factfinder.

    Apparently, not a parody! Desperately me-centric toddlers in their 20s. In the sane world, people appreciate if we remember their names. Imagine your dad announcing himself at brunch: "Hi, my name is Frank, and I'm a bottom..."

    The year murder came back.

    Analysis of 51 cities with murder data through at least September shows murder up 35.7% YTD relative to 2019. Big cities tend to overstate national trends in crime, but the national change in murder in 2020 will be historically awful. D cities +36.2% R cities +35.6%
