The government would work better if well-functioning agencies were something people care about. Inattention and dysfunction are the fruit of constant culture warring. https://t.co/z3q5fuzvqY https://t.co/awqdcR9BQ6 — PolitiTweet.org

Anyways, “tech” does so many great things for the world — that particular company makes a lot of money employing a lot of smart people to do something that has very little value. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve seen the best minds of my generation wasting huge amounts of their lives trying to induce others to waste more time scrolling social media feeds in order to sell more ad inventory. https://t.co/z3q5fuzvqY https://t.co/O3C1loRZrd — PolitiTweet.org

What kind of RINO believes in evolution? — PolitiTweet.org
Dr. Mehmet Oz @DrOz
Ah evolution. Ugly men make more sperm than attractive men because they don't get as many chances to deposit it. http://tinyurl.com/l9xeqb

Golden is so good. I’m afraid he’ll narrowly lose while dramatically overperforming the fundamentals and be forgotten but he ought to be a model nationally for how to win in more conservative areas. — PolitiTweet.org

@MattZeitlin Americans will try anything other than proportional representation — PolitiTweet.org

I think that’s the right choice for the show, but it’s a choice. They deliberately *avoid* emphasizing how far back in the past those events are. But if you wanted to make an “aughts” showing playing up the differences you totally could. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
One thing that’s interesting is that, as an artistic choice, they do not emphasize the “period” aspects of Better Call Saul’s setting — they don’t work in references to Bush-era politics or music. But it was a long time ago, objectively. — PolitiTweet.org

I can trick myself into thinking stuff hasn’t changed that much since I started college, but I was using Pine for email, dorms didn’t have WiFi, “unlimited night and weekend minutes,” was a big consideration, and there was no age-polarization in voting behavior. — PolitiTweet.org

When I was 15, events from 20 years ago felt like the distant past. Now that I’m 41, that’s no longer the case. [7,000 RTs] — PolitiTweet.org

@nbashaw My actual texan father in law making the switch to pellets is what has me intrigued — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
With so much conservative policy writing, I'm intrigued by the ideas at some level of abstraction but then I keep reading and re-reading and not seeing the part where they actually explain what the proposal is. How does this work? https://t.co/S3pcPx58eB https://t.co/WVa8wTdzyc — PolitiTweet.org

Should I get a pellet smoker? And if so should I go with Traeger or is there some smaller shop that’s better? — PolitiTweet.org

@brianschatz What’s up with permitting reform? — PolitiTweet.org

@davidshor @MattZeitlin @Wertwhile @revhowardarson @Lis_Smith There was a freshman Senator from Illinois who also chatted a lot on and off the record with the national press when he got to DC. — PolitiTweet.org

@RogueWPA @davidshor I think it is probably more effective as applied to Latin American immigration, where everyone is already obsessed with narrow partisan impacts. — PolitiTweet.org

@DanielMillerEsq Thip Khao (Lao), Maikan (Malaysian), Doi Moi (Vietnamese), or Baan Siam (Thai) would be my suggestions. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@Wertwhile @davidshor @revhowardarson That’s one effective tactic. Another I think is to try to fight with companies on social media. But also sensible politicians should try to actually engage with journalists — it’s surprisingly rare. — PolitiTweet.org

@nbashaw @cwarzel My mother was an analog-era graphic designer and photo editor who saw most of the monetary value of her skills eliminated by desktop publishing software. So I’ll always be sympathetic to people facing that plight. But does anyone seriously regret that the industry evolved? — PolitiTweet.org

NYT restaurant review the year I was born has to start by just broadly explaining what Thai food is. https://t.co/VhdQO2ElNc — PolitiTweet.org

I think we’re really only scratching the surface so far of what can be achieved in the “put some popular dishes from a non-Latin cuisine into tortillas.” I’d eat a mapo tofu taco or a lamb tibs taco. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
We also have whole new cuisines — I saw a Korean Taco place in San Antonio (Bull Gogi Boys) which is a kind of food I know from DC (Takorean) and was invented in LA ~15 years ago before spreading nationally like wildfire. — PolitiTweet.org
