@halcyon_hazel In college I used to walk to class wearing normal non-prescription sunglasses. People would ask me later why I didn’t say hi to them when they waved or nodded, but everyone was a blob to me.

@ShitpostRock2 One time he let a prophet sic a bunch of bears on some kids cause they called him baldy.

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@LinkofSunshine Yeah but what if I’m too busy [redacted] a Walmart to cook? Typical basil to ignore praxis for bourgeois skills like cooking.

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@ramit FWIW I liked your profile in the NYT, and like the space you’ve carved out.

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@Ars_Vie @LinkofSunshine So you’re saying that in order to coexist with other entities in a society of mutual cooperation, certain behaviors need to be curtailed for social cohesion? This is the first time I’m hearing of this.

@pastormarkburns Idk man looks like a giant golden idol to me

@chucktodd @BarackObama @SpanbergerForVA Are republicans burning political capital by redrawing the entire south?

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@americanthymos @ReichlinMelnick This is wrong. There is no such thing as an “ancestral American.” That’s a made up term that the founders never intended or wanted. Cope and seethe.

@PatrickHeizer @LinkofSunshine Every republican president since I’ve been alive has started a war in the Middle East, and every democratic president since I’ve been alive has either ended or wound down a war in the Middle East. Why would I ever vote for a republican?

@agraybee As a progressive zoomer I can honestly say if anyone said that shit at a party me and my friends were at we would laugh them out of the room

@eduleadership @KelseyTuoc Wait this guy has a PhD in educational philosophy and he’s never seen a case of a student succeeding in a faster paced math class? What school did he even go to???

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@eduleadership @KelseyTuoc It was true for me. That’s why I took AP calc instead of non AP. That’s kinda the whole point of different difficulty classes.

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@msnofficial_on Theres to be a plugin called amphetamine that you could use to do this I think.

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@KelseyTuoc How do they rationalize that if the demands are supposedly equal, and the distribution centers make more money, then why doesn’t everyone move to the distribution centers?

@shagbark_hick Homeschooling should be illegal. Children should be educated by professionals and held to a standard of what they should learn. Not to mention the civic unifier that is the public school system. Why should Karen with her half finished communications degree be able to teach?

[Matthew Crawford @MatGCrawford]

@TetraspaceWest I don’t understand that. The US, and every other country, should make sure everyone on their territory has access to a stable and human legal system. Foreigners are not beneath me, as I am not beneath them when I am the foreigner.

@TheBTCTherapist Prices are determined at the margins. So if someone else is willing to pay 55% more rather than your 50, overseas it goes.

@Truth_Dragon500 “Collectivism can only take you so far in short-term prosperity.” I just point the entirety of human civilization that has allowed us to live lives of of comfort the deities of our ancestors would envy.

@JackFarley96 Work in petrochem. Every call is about how the recent market is good for us, but as a consumer I’m like 💀

@madeleinewintr I literally don’t understand a person who would pick red. Why would you do that? I believe in my fellow humans.
