J.D. but reformed; D.H.L. but no yellow truck. Naively insisting that God, physics and capitalism are not the three 🐎 things of cognitive dissonance.

@elonmusk I’m genuinely interested in your response: but if this is a simulation, doesn’t your experience with that simulated conversation actually make a lot of sense?

Fun with @Avis at @MandalayBay : $65 EV rental, drove it 65 miles, got a surprise $70 surcharge for the energy use. Should’ve taken a taxi…

@poonam_rani @datingbyblaine Too easy Poonam! Want a complaint about congestion pricing or a question about which SoHo House location did you want to have drinks at?

@zerohedge Follow the thought line through regarding devaluing the RMB

Unless it can be shown that we can be completely self-sufficient and that the history of trade globalization was a tremendous, enterprise-risking mistake on the part of generations of American leaders, what else is going on?

Mr. Scotten served three combat tours in Iraq as a U.S. Army Special Forces Officer and earned two Bronze Stars. He graduated from Harvard Law School and clerked for Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. of the U.S. Supreme Court, and for Brett M. Kavanaugh before he, too, became a Supreme Court justice. (Source: NYT)

Saw a few reposts today of this very good and wide-ranging analysis of this moment in history. Letting the anxiety and hope hit you equally as you work your way through it is probably good training for the cognitive dissonance in front of us (this is not a political statement, it's just a reflection of where we are today for a lot of complicated reasons very few of which appeared out of nowhere yesterday) https://t.co/wcxKd9YoRD
