    There are as many different ways of being an intelligent human being as there are human beings. It's our competitive evolutionary advantage. A myriad of solutions for every problem. Sneering at people because they aren't smart in the way you are just advertises your ignorance.

  3. Love this video of Rodin at work. The audacity of the artist. To see the stone, to seize hold of it, to carve and hammer and smooth out of it a statement, a vision, a living thing. We are the makers.

  6. coach Matt Nagy on the team’s weak offense: “You need to score more, we understand that. How we get to that, we’re going through that identity. I think we all feel good about the identity but now it’s like, within that identity, what else do we need to do?” Da fuck?

  8. The men and women on the John Deere picket lines speak for so many Americans, I think. Listen.

  9. This is simply an intolerable state of affairs in the American democracy. “A republic, if you can keep it,” Ben Franklin warns us. This right here is how you lose it.

  10. It’s days like today on Twitter that show you how many people really seem to think that higher education excuses “low-class” behavior. There are ancient, profoundly humane reasons that people in many cultures believe with few exceptions that it’s wrong to speak ill of the dead.

  11. This image of a striking Kellogg’s worker in Omaha holding down the picket line during a torrential downpour says so much. It’s hard to strike. To make a decision to stand up for yourself and your family. And for other workers, too. This moment is necessary for our country. 1/

  12. Russell Wilson, on IR for the first time in his career, is on the field running a mock 2-minute drive by himself during pregame warmups. Calling/changing plays at the line of scrimmage and all.

    Something we hinted at here but didn’t fully articulate: The rejection of two-tier contracts across industries — Deere, Kellogg’s, Kaiser — is a sign that the US union movement may finally be moving out of its neoliberal-era defensive crouch.

  17. Something tells me Santa is regretting adopting just in time inventory and not paying the sleigh bell drivers & elves a living wage all those decades.

    From a striking worker: "City of Ottumwa would not allow traditional burn barrels because of a open flame. The next day Local 74 members came up with this. Even when the city is on Deere’s side UAW members will thrive!"

  19. The women and men on the picket lines across America are asking us to see them, to hear them, and to join a conversation about these important issues—a conversation we’ve postponed too long. They strike for fairness for themselves and their families. And for all of us. 8/x

  20. Of course, American society had profound problems back then (like all societies). But the casual ethos of—well, of greed that has transformed/deformed the compensation structure of American business executives? That’s new. That’s our problem. We know we need a rebalancing. 7/

  21. I’m not saying they were noble. I’m saying our society was different. The “typical worker” at Sears or anywhere else back then might’ve jumped out of the same plane as my dad over the Philippines. They might’ve sat next to each other at a ballgame—before “stadium suites.” 6/
