    Is it possible that people who immediately imagine vast conspiracy theories just have a very limited experience with the actual organizational and bureaucratic incompetence that abounds in the world?

    (my related take is that elections don’t need new technology. pen and paper is all you need, with a machine counter and human back ups.)

    half the issue here is the demand for immediate results, which has nothing to do with the process and everything to do with the spectacle

    debates should be hosted in collaboration with public broadcasting, results from primaries and caucuses should be tabulated on their own time, etc.

    I don't usually retweet whole threads, but this one is spot-on.

    that the long-running voterless television primary gets to continue until results are made public is both exhausting and an indictment of a race whose key driver has been what cable networks feel extracts the most drama

    Traveling or commuting to work this morning? Difficult driving conditions may exist near the Continental Divide, I-25 NB, and I-40 near Clines Corners. Take it slow and check before you go or dial 511 for the latest info.

    A coyote and a badger use a culvert as a wildlife crossing to pass under a busy California highway together. Coyotes and badgers are known to hunt together. 🎥Peninsula Open Space Trust

    Foreign policy and national security may not matter that much in the 2020 election, but the 2020 election is likely to matter a lot for foreign policy and national security.

    Remember the cold war Soviet disinformation campaign “Operation Infektion” that blamed the US for the AIDS virus? A similar pattern of spreading disinformation is evolving alongside the current outbreak. ⬇️

    What we're dealing with here is elite journalists pretending their disappointment at having to spike their pre -written "analysis" stories is an objective disaster

    All the chairs I saw had hard armrests. It can't be that everyone has cats, can it? Also, it is supposed to be 20-30 degrees cooler today with snow showers.

    I will leave speculation about the cause of that state to the conspiracy theorists. Part of it is normal wear. The chair I ordered was something like 40% off and looked pretty good. I will have to assemble it, though. Got an email this morning that it's on its way.

    Enough about the Iowa caucuses. We'll have the results when we have the results. Yesterday I ordered a new office chair. I needed to do something for myself, and the current one has been decaying.

    Gray fabric office chair with armrest thoroughly ripped apart. Stuffing is shredded and coming out.

    The way the various candidates are publicly responding to a situation of uncertainty—where presevation of institutional confidence and legitimacy might be at odds with their immediate political interests— is actually a pretty good window into their leadership capacity.

    From our NYT story tonight: no indication the app to tally votes in Iowa was hacked/breached. What happened appears to be much more mundane and commonplace: people didn’t understand how to use the technology, and bugs in internet speed/connectivity led to a lot of malfunctions.

    In bold counter programming move, Iowa should release Democratic caucus results just as Trump begin his State of the Union address tonight
