I also just really appreciate that in David E Kelly’s universe, lawyering is a really fun job that’s all cool speeches and absolutely no tedious paperwork — must have lured untold numbers of people into law school. — PolitiTweet.org

I fell into a streaming fugue state last night and fired up an old episode of Boston Legal and it is really shocking how bad a lot of the camera work etc on network dramas used to be — shooting those 20+ episode seasons must have been brutal. — PolitiTweet.org

In general, though, I think the college professor community has developed a powerful toolkit for thinking critically about various institutions' roles in society and how those functions can distort people's behavior and thinking — just wish we could turn it around sometimes. — PolitiTweet.org

He was expressing the view that the structural role of a union president would constrain someone like that's ability to speak the truth, and we should instead defer to the loftier perspective of a Georgetown University faculty member ... I am skeptical. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Anyways, this whole thread was rude and I probably shouldn't have written it. But it stemmed from me being annoyed that a Georgetown professor was dumping on the idea that we might want to defer to labor union leaders' takes on whether or not Joe Biden has a good labor record. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@gnrosenberg I was trying to explain more clearly why, in a case where professors from Georgetown, Columbia, and U Chicago are disagreeing with labor union leaders about Joe Biden's approach to labor unions I am inclined to side with the labor unions. — PolitiTweet.org

There are many institutions of higher education in the United States that educate large numbers of students from working- and middle-class families. But the structure of academia is that the high-prestige jobs are at the schools that don't do this. — PolitiTweet.org

What's more, I find it personally very dissonant when people who are in this line of work decide to engage in a lot of holier-than-thou hard-left politics. Now to be clear #notallcollegeprofessors — PolitiTweet.org

I think that to the extent one thinks of this as a worthy and noble mission in life, that reflects well on the professors who work at those institutions. But to the extent one thinks of it as a kind of bad mission, that reflects poorly on said professors. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
There are a lot of different institutions in the world and those institutions perform a lot of different functions. One particular set of institutions in the United States performs the function of selling very expensive degrees primarily to the children of rich parents. — PolitiTweet.org

The other day I mentioned something offhandedly about college professors that I guess was unclearly written so I thought I should probably try to say it more clearly. — PolitiTweet.org

Secondarily, something we see in a minority of American cities is that endemic housing scarcity creates a perverse political economy where straightforward improvements generate opposition because of housing spillovers. https://t.co/IRZz8tznTD https://t.co/L9IEOHMiUe — PolitiTweet.org

The reason the UK should allow more housebuilding IMO isn't especially about agglomeration, it's that if more housing were built then British people could consume more housing and raise their living standards. — PolitiTweet.org

There's been a total collapse of reading comprehension on the internet — this New Yorker article is *criticizing* the group of people it is writing about. https://t.co/jsfW8iAF5J — PolitiTweet.org

@Bernstein As is often the case with nostalgia, it's a mash-up of different things — they're pining for a combination of 1950s family life and 1990s raunch culture that never existed and never could have existed. — PolitiTweet.org

My movie pick that I haven't seen on anyone else's list is "Not Okay," a fun streamer comedy that actually addresses contemporary life in an accessible but perceptive way. https://t.co/YQlZ5n7d3k https://t.co/0HIkvnyT8B — PolitiTweet.org
