I hope Robb won't mind if I use this question to speculate about manufactured individual realities for a few tweets.

Is there concept like the "overton window" that describes the limits of our tolerance/acceptance of fake information?

So, first a question, & I'm serious: What do I do if the muslim woman being harassed on the bus is wearing headphones?

Because, I've been taught (as have we all, yes?) that you don't speak to women wearing headphones unless they're on fire.

I want too. I'm hesitant in part b/c I probably look exactly like the asshole doing the harassing. (No beard though, maybe that's good)

Also the issue w/the suggested intervention of just sitting there & talking to her about the weather, etc.

Beyond that, it becomes a tactical problem, so running thru the possible parameters now would take forever.
