    the problem with school hours isn't an educational problem, it's that our entire labor economy has been reoriented around dual-income families or single-parent families while most of our institutions were designed around households with one working and one non-working parent

    THE FILES THE ANNOTATIONS I LOVE THIS

    Earlier today Bill Gates in an interview said he doesn't like Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax because he thinks he will have to pay "$100 billion" and he will have to do "a little math"(?). That sounded wrong, so I did the math. Text version:

    It occurred to me that I don’t have tote bags to give away, BUT I do need an excuse to do more art! So let me sweeten the deal a bit - if you donate any amount (even $5!), I’ll send you a postcard with a Sarah Mei original watercolor on it. Just DM me the address to send it to.

    One hour in and we’re already 20% of the way there! Please consider donating to if you are able to - your donation will be matched twice - once by me, and once by !

When this happens, kids can't bathe, people can't wash dishes, & grandparents can't flush their toilets. The Human Utility provides assistance to families & makes sure they always have running water at home.”

    Softbank: Hey, Saudi Arabia, so sorry I wasted your money on nonsense pretending to be a tech company. Saudis: This is all your fault. Travis Kalanick: Hey guys, I'm building kitchens in crappy urban areas to make grilled cheese sandwiches. Saudis: Here's $400 million.
