Government jobs' "productivity" isn't based in shit like revenue minus costs, but in their contribution to the state's capacity to provide security, public goods, redistribution, fair competition, rule of law, and ultimately social welfare. We shouldn't have to relearn this!

I have two degrees in climate science. Not once in my education did we talk about the role that social media would play in the collective experience of climate change.

Cool story: Harper is from Iowa City and filmed some scenes there. I was lucky enough to watch Will and Harper play a game of pool in a local bar before watching them drive off! I had no idea why they were there at the time, but it’s amazing to see it all come together!
