In all seriousness, the best gift I ever got my dad was https://t.co/gdXTGvEPIc - he loved it.

This is amazing because my dad actually has both this book and the previous. Well done!

We're just over one week away from Thanksgiving -- and I'm starting our stock while I plan this years menu.

I'm going to have a more detailed thread later, but I wanted to make sure to share my thoughts from the past few years as people prepare for America's best holiday (1/5)

Happy Election Day! Best pitch I read this year was from a county assessor candidate: improved metrics / service, lowered costs, invested in technology, came in under budget, while giving staff raises and more education. May all our officials be so efficient ✅😬🙏

This is a fantastic tweet.

So many “influencers” and “optimizers” and “wellness” and “happiness” gurus don’t have partners or kids. Yes, strive to be healthy and excellent and all that, but sometimes the key to adult life—especially if you’ve got kids—is that you’ve just got to order a pizza and move on.

I thought these images were pretty amazing this week.

From the press release: this covers a patch of sky the size of a grain of sand held at arm's length on the earth's surface and is how these galaxies appeared 4.6B years ago.

@moseskagan @STL_PJ @seandsweeney I was reflecting on this today - here's a quick thread. Felt like everytown . org had great info. https://t.co/uW2G1Pwqcs

I was reflecting this morning on the Uvalde shooting and remembered this article by @Atul_Gawande on incrementalism. https://t.co/WJXB9WJTj8

[Zac Seidel @ZSeidel]

I also thought this analysis on @JAMA_current from a few years ago was interesting--semiautomatic rifles seem to increase the number of fatalities per incident. https://t.co/ZFe0tyNqTv

The @NRA has a similar tracker of legislation. I thought it was interesting: seems like lots of room for compromise in the middle ground: https://t.co/e2yztCCK47
