@josheidelson Well the specific joke here is that people with boring, news-less jobs sometimes say "this is off the record" in situations where you'd never think of quoting them. That's happened to me and is funny. — PolitiTweet.org

@RachelLarris If you're asking the question, you'd probably be happier doing it. I fly roughly once a week and have never seen anyone hassled for masking. (I usually don't, but if I'm seated next to someone masking I ask if they'd like me to.) — PolitiTweet.org

@avizvizenilman @mattyglesias I could try to dig up my eventual fine but I was definitely getting whacked every day. New ticket every morning. — PolitiTweet.org

David Weigel @daveweigel

@mattyglesias Your tweets about this remind me of the week in 2013 when I was lazy about updating my plates and got a new ticket every day after the expiration date until I went to DMV. Didn't love that, don't love the "punishing any scofflaw is ableism" mindset either. — PolitiTweet.org

@StephenSilver There's an idea that Jill Biden cruelly forced her husband to run for president even though he can't function. This is a reboot of that which, as you say, makes even less sense.

"The first thing you do is you let police do their jobs... you have DAs who don't prosecute them." Second thing: "You should have one entry in school, and that's it. You should have a security guard at each school [and] a mental health consultant." — PolitiTweet.org
