@CultureGrrl @metmuseum @JohnsHopkins Museums do matter and I just hope the book finds the same prominence in bookstores outside of museums.

Selling that message to people already in the museum is like preaching the benefits of museums to a conference full of museum professionals...

Sunday morning tiptoeing around my kitchen trying to get that first cup of coffee before the kids wake up and realizing millions of other dads are probably also tiptoeing around their kitchens doing the same 😂🤫

🇪🇺 European investor: come back and see me when you generate revenue

🇺🇸 US investor: walk me through the big picture and convince me you’re the right guy to lead the project

[Nathan Benaich @nathanbenaich]

🇪🇺European VC at Series A: “can you forecast your paid marketing spend per channel so we can understand your CAC evolution”.

🇺🇸US VC at Series A: “what’s it going to take to crush your competition and be #1 in your category”.

You pick :-)

Take personality out of politics and you’re left with human issues:

- that roads and bridges are safe and communication lines working
- that we’re protected from tainted foods and medicines
- that we’re given the opportunity to become productive members of our communities

True but Addison Mitchell McConnell III has gone an entire career not giving a 💩 what is said or thought about him so as long as principles are worthless and he keeps delivering for the people giving him money he has no reason to change.

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

Mitch McConnell, who blew up Senate norms, and stretched the rules for naked partisan gain, said this: “Changing the structure of the Senate in order to achieve a partisan advantage is a mistake for the Senate and a mistake for our country.” What a monstrous hypocrite

Chalk this up as random but #cannabis is one of the more interesting stories happening at the moment (medicinal, adult use...). Legalization a process but rate at which perceptions and economics have evolved is incredible.

Domestic politics and international relations are one in the same

Yesterday at 2022 🇫🇷 presidential candidate Eric Zemmour rally 😔

Most of these people are pawns in someone else’s game but undercurrents are real and concerns legit. Centrist pols better take this seriously - 🌎 political trend not their friend at the moment…

La 'culture de risque' c'est le seule élément qui manque pour que la France décolle !

Comment donner aux étudiants une nouvelle « culture du risque » ? C’est parti pour #Futurapolis Planète, le forum de l’innovation organisé par @LePoint à @Toulouse @Occitanie, avec Sylvie Retailleau (@UnivParisSaclay) @NadiaPellefigue @FaureDominique et @gernelle / @LePointEvents

Informative documentary on the up and coming generation of right-wing partisans in France.

Lots of people throughout the West feeling a deep sense of anxiety about their place in the world around them…

@MichelBarnier candidacy susceptible to blow-back if perceptions around negotiated #Brexit settlement turn bad?

Regardless I still think he’d be the right guy for the job fwiw

[Michel Barnier @MichelBarnier]

Il aurait fallu être attentif plus tôt à la mise en oeuvre des accords #Brexit.

Les Britanniques se comportent en flibustiers. Il n'y a pas de bonne foi de leur part, ni sur la pêche, ni sur l'Irlande.

Outrage-generating clickbait is the natural resource extraction of journalism.

[Tim Heckscher @TimHeckscher]

There's something strangely satisfying about tweeting to oneself. It's as much about formulating thoughts into a concise sentence as it is about sharing with like-minded (or not) people.

I’m running for governor.

Together, we can push past the small and divisive politics that we see in Texas today — and get back to the big, bold vision that used to define Texas. A Texas big enough for all of us.
