Welcome to my chaotic Twitter feed of Economics slander and train related tomfoolery

The literacy crisis is real, and I am witnessing it firsthand. I get asked about 20 questions per lab session, and like 2 are actually about not understanding the material.

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

I swear to god, the number of students who ask me questions that make me want to scream "READ THE DAMN ASSIGNMENT FIRST" in the class I TA for is far higher than is reasonable.

Earnest take: If leftists are serious about age limits on Congress, and it isn't partisan BS, then they should ask Sanders to step down.

Literally no risk to this. The dude comes from Vermont. They would likely get someone similar, if not exactly like Sanders, to replace him.

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@Cynical_History Is this related to the Bonnie Blue Flag? That can't be the cause, though, because of Vermont.

@Nomads4Pritzker I am sorry, but I swear on my life that it was a meme several years ago that cheesecake was actually gaudy. I vaguely remember everyone participating. No one I know denies the food is good, but the decoration is purposefully over the top.

@PineTreeGOP Damn, that must have been some insane FOMO to do a 180

@OrganizerMemes New England Republicans are just built different

@DaneWillette @MariGO2thepolls Wrong, the non-dominant should be holding another beer... for your wife, to keep it safe.

@nise_yoshimi In fact, the issue was so widely known that it inspired a video game

@LinkofSunshine Mecha-Bibi at your deathbed:

@MasterVril I just red up on this guy. Did this dude's government collapsed because he made his nerdy flag fixation an actual campaign promise.

[Chicago 2100 Urbanism @Chicago2100]

Blue states like Illinois California and New York are handing congress to the south because we refuse to build more housing

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@KevinMLevy Small Brained: Building more housing so people have places to live.

Galaxy Brained: Building houses because, goddamn it, you are not losing to fucking Texas if you have a say.

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@LinkofSunshine Wait, is there a timeline in which the Arab Bloc could actually become kingmakers?

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@TomEDewey1948 Sadly Vatniks don't care. They are going to grasp at anything to pretend that Zelensky is, in fact, a dictator in waiting.

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@tearantuala @ToryRestored @OilBar0n I sincerely hope we skip that period.

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@OilBar0n Social democrats:

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@ToryRestored @OilBar0n It honestly is. My country is literally just going through the motions of 1920s European politics a century late.

[Mortimer {Blue Checkmark} @mortimer778]

@d0wntoflorida To be fair, Governor Scott is effectively a Democrat in any other state.
