    I'm amazed that politicians and the media haven't agreed on a deal where the first contest is in Hawaii so everyone gets to spend a few months in Hawaii every four years.

    the narrative trembles, shakes, its arcs lost in the arcane magic of the apps. while sorcerers work to interpret the art of the collective decision, the augurs beg for any coherent form to seize the moment. the narrative is open for any who wants to take it.

    This is beautiful. A citation for when you need to cite something so obvious that you can't find a citation for it. "If you have been directed to this page by a citation elsewhere, it is plainly true that the author’s claim is correct." via

    A fine piece by . Because he's a nicer person than I, Pete finds the spectacle of Republican politicians "beaten down and broken by Trump" "a poignant thing." I too once found it somewhat poignant. I now find it simply contemptible.

    This from "After one of Boris Johnson’s most senior advisers, Lee Cain, told the banned reporters they must leave the building, the rest of the journalists decided to walk out rather than allow Downing Street to choose who scrutinises and reports on the government."

    NYT Editorial Board not mincing words: “it’s not Congress as an institution that has failed; it’s Senate Republicans. They didn’t refuse to hold a fair trial so much as they refused to hold any trial at all.”

    Digital quarantine is here. It appears that folks who fled Wuhan have been digitally quarantined, likely via WeChat. Their apps don’t work outside the quarantine zone. Now that’s happened to 240 Uber users in Mexico exposed to the infected. Complex issue! A thread…🧵

    I once visited a high school to do a talk. At the start I asked how many of the kids wanted to be an author when they grew up. Out of about 120, only 1 hand went up. When I finished my talk, I asked again. I'm proud to say, hand on heart, 0 hands went up. Scared that one kid good

    The app is called “You’re Cancelled.” When you’ve made plans that you wish you could cancel, you go into the app and press a little button. If the other person presses theirs too, congratulations! Confetti exploded and your plans are cancelled.

    In 'The Edge', the England cricketers who played under Andy Flower talk about how his intense, domineering style brought them to a peak - and how that intensity also led to mental exhaustion. I suspect Eddie Jones' players will be going through something similar.
