I don’t really understand cars … what’s the deal with premium gasoline? Does it make your car go faster? The normal gasoline seems to work fine. — PolitiTweet.org

One of the confusing things about becoming an old person is that we now have swirling celebrity controversies about famous people who I haven't heard of — I used to know who all the famous people were. — PolitiTweet.org

But we also need to be preemptively developing broad-spectrum vaccines so we can be ready *before* something much more catastrophic than SARS-Cov-2 comes around. https://t.co/8NGDNvK35X — PolitiTweet.org

Have tried to cover this in the specific case of Covid on Slow Boring. https://t.co/YJDtA6kuKq — PolitiTweet.org

Good dive into the baffling lack of funding and urgency around efforts to develop better covid vaccines. https://t.co/wYnMnQN8HE — PolitiTweet.org

@JakeAnbinder Sociology is the master discipline because politics and economics are both just aspects of society as a whole. — PolitiTweet.org

@nfergus I liked it a lot. — PolitiTweet.org

A much more serious movie than I realized from the marketing, which I think did it a disservice. https://t.co/52E7K0I3nK — PolitiTweet.org

@JakeAnbinder I don’t think economists would accept the pay. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Very unrealistic aspect of the digital media newsroom depicted at the beginning of “Not Okay” is all the people speaking to each other — it’s much less cinematic but these would Slacks. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@JakeAnbinder Historians know lots of interesting facts about the past and it’s good to learn about those things. But I think the quality of the causal reasoning is often low due to a disciplinary stigma against engaging in explicit counterfactual analysis. — PolitiTweet.org

@hdhaskell1 No it was actually a coffee shop in one of the least-cool neighborhoods in the city. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@JakeAnbinder In the first tweet I say there is a lot of value in what historians do — because there is! — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The other day I was working at a crowded coffee shop and the person next to me turns and goes “you type really fast!” That’s the kind of skill journalism requires and it shows in the work, which is in fact published very quickly. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Yes journalism is: (a) Notoriously terrible. Nobody ever says anything good about journalists, journalism, or “the media.” (b) Very methodologically adjacent to history (“the first draft of history…”) — PolitiTweet.org
Jake Anbinder @JakeAnbinder
@mattyglesias Don't journalists do this all the time?
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
… and it’s remarkable — and honestly confusing to visitors from other fields — the extent to which historians resist explicit reasoning about causation and counterfactual analysis even while constantly saying things that clearly implicate these ideas. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
To Discourse a little on this, I like history, I like reading history books, I like following historians on Twitter, I enjoyed several history classes in college, I think there’s a lot of good stuff going on. But. I took a philosophy of history class once in college… — PolitiTweet.org

The genius of IRA in particular is that while Republicans all voted against it there was basically no mass popular mobilization — “here’s a bunch of tax credits” is incredibly boring relative to GOP rollbacks of rights people have had for fifty years. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
But that’s why I think it’s unwise to exaggerate the extent of Biden’s policy accomplishment (real and important but not the second coming of FDR) and to try to strike a chill pose now that IRA and student loans are done. https://t.co/S5nOrWo4Og — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
This is potentially why something like Dobbs can throw a huge speed bump into Republicans’ midterm dreams — the most dramatic, salient, and emotionally activating policy change of the Biden Era was change from the right. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The president’s party almost always loses seats in the midterms and what’s fascinating is that’s *not* driven by the incumbent president becoming unpopular (though that sometimes happens too) — voters just opt for balance it’s not a negative referendum. https://t.co/fdAX4Rrpuf https://t.co/xaH7Mgyiiy — PolitiTweet.org

You can make one book required reading for every high school in America. What do you choose?

@graykimbrough For the record, Furman tried to curtail 529 plans when he was in the Obama administration (and I believe to cap *all* tax deductions) but congress lost its shit. https://t.co/udW5tophCp — PolitiTweet.org
