There once was a billionaire fraud
Whom voters in red states applaud.
Though judged among crooks
For cooking his books,
If this hurts him, then that would be odd.

@cojobrien Where is NYC in this chart?

@Marc_Leibowitz Marc, I don’t think this was Herzl’s dream.

Agree with Nate. Tweets have been Hobbesian for some years now, which is part of the reason I generally no longer tweet.

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

Twitter ceased to feel like a convivial dinner party in IDK 2011? 2013? 2015? A long time ago. Like I mostly don't like the recent changes but I feel like I'm being a little gaslit about what this platform was like before.

This is my first time reading a Putin explainer and coming away feeling that I gained some useful insight into the man. Thank you, @juliaioffe.

[Julia Ioffe @juliaioffe]

The West’s obsession with Putin’s K.G.B. past often misses the biographical detail that for most Russians, especially those of his generation, is especially glaring: Putin is the street urchin, all grown up.

My latest, in @PuckNews.

If you’ve got nothing better to do,
Upon waking and dozing off, too
Than words to surmise
In less than six tries,
Could something be off? I ask you.

Said Will Smith, leaving the stage
After venting his husbandly rage,
“I appeared in a flick
About crazy King Dick,
And now I am taking his page.”

I know, I know; a day late and a dollar short. Kudos to Chris Rock, though.

Wordle at times has a way
To thwart your potential to play,
When the word that you seek
Is far from unique,
But fortunately, not today.

Zelensky’s imploring the West to
Fly off to Ukrainians’ rescue.
Would such a decree
Begin World War III,
Or is NATO too fearful? I esk you.

Turns out: the Coinbase app has quite a few good ones.

#Askingforafriend: please recommend a good crypto wallet explainer.

[Dr. Goose @DrGooseEcon]

@fbonacci I should hope that a proper explainer would clarify all those distinctions.

In opting for the opt’mal op’ning word,
Those with 4 vowels ought to be preferred,
For though one must choose 5 of 26 letters,
To start with vowels one’s chances greatly betters. #wordle

@Chris_arnade Chris, what are you doing in this sad, ramshackle town? America wasn’t depressing enough for you?

I still remember wondering whether I really needed the 20MB hard drive on my 1986 Mac SE.

Cost of breakfast foods hits 10-year high according to the @FT Breakfast Indicator which, because it neglects avocados, may not be setting a complete breakfast table.

@JamesGRickards Not sure what MSM you’re reading, but in the WSJ and FT, the “Evergrande-induced selloff” was the lead market story.
