If you find the arguments on the internet swirling around the book interesting, actually pick it up — instead of deciding you know what it says — it’s short and very readable. https://t.co/N5sdb8dqRm — PolitiTweet.org

It’s pub day for @willmacaskill’s What We Owe The Future today! I have a nitpicky post about longtermism tomorrow so let me say today this is a really good book that you should read. https://t.co/N5sdb8dqRm — PolitiTweet.org

I always think the houses in my neighborhood are insanely expensive and then I go west of Rock Creek every once in a while and there are all these other neighborhoods where the houses are even more expensive and then there are even pricier suburbs. — PolitiTweet.org

@AliceFromQueens I’m inspired by the seamless FBI/DEA cooperation in last night’s Better Call Saul finale. — PolitiTweet.org

I think they felt bad (rightly!) in retrospect about giving Walt a triumphant ending in Breaking Bad so they didn’t want to repeat that in BCS. But it actually would have been better to have Walt’s machine gun scheme not fully work but Saul gets his sweetheart deal. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Incredible artistry throughout the whole series but I didn’t find the Better Call Saul conclusion to be particularly convincing and the whole way the show wrapped up makes the extensive screen time given to the cartel plot over multiple years of television weird. — PolitiTweet.org

If you look at the FBI/DEA/ATF/ICE budgets as a whole, ICE is over half the total spending. But if you had a consolidated federal police agency I don’t think people would feel that interior immigration enforcement should consume the majority of its resources. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Having a special DEA to enforce drug laws rather than a broad-purpose police agency that faces tradeoffs about priorities seems to create bad bureaucratic incentives where people have their whole life and career and identity invested in hyping up a particular problem. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Rather than defunding the FBI like these rightists want, I think we should consider getting rid of narrow-purpose agencies like DEA, ATF, and ICE and building a more comprehensive federal law enforcement agency. https://t.co/8rCgPDUD8H — PolitiTweet.org

Lady working at Rita’s Famous Tacos in Ingram asked me this over the weekend when she saw my credit card, so I told her she was perpetuating white supremacy and the myth of the perpetual foreigner. She thanked me for the call in and vowed to educate herself in the future. — PolitiTweet.org

Gotta say I am often asked this question by working class Hispanic people who are curious about my last name or my blond son Jose. Among people who haven’t read the right articles on the internet, it’s a normal way of asking about someone’s family background. — PolitiTweet.org

No matter how sweetly you ask it, “Where are you from?” is not a polite question.

@ciphergoth @mrmike772 I like that aspect of it; at the end of the day it’s a human story not like these MCU movies where everything is about The Fate Of The Multiverse. — PolitiTweet.org

@markmoskvit I’ve had the same change of heart, he can’t tell if Raiders has actually aged better than Star Wars judged as individual works or just that Star Wars has been so much more diluted by brand extension. — PolitiTweet.org

@glukianoff I think the over-generalization from the radio case (which I think has a lot to do with the specifics of how that industry works) is a great point. — PolitiTweet.org

@nilocobau I saw Blade Runner on the big screen when The Final Cut came out in 2007 — the immersive sound of a theater was really cool though potentially could be replicated at home. — PolitiTweet.org

I guess to put some kind of spicy gloss on this, I think the very best things tend to be underrated because people are motivated to praise lesser stuff to seem more interesting. — PolitiTweet.org

When “The Last Crusade” came out in 1989, they put Raiders in the revival houses (remember those?) and my grandfather took me to see it on the big screen. Would definitely go again if they want to bring it back to theaters. — PolitiTweet.org
