I wish the disabled and Social Security beneficiaries could get a little. We don't pay taxes and don't make much money. We always get skipped on stimulus packages. @DOGE @realDonaldTrump

Something I wish mathematicians conveyed more convincingly to our students is how it’s possible to get stuck on a problem for literally *years*, and then solve it.

You’re evidently also not guaranteed re-entry even if you’re a member of Congress getting back from speaking on stage.

There are more people than there are seats at the Democratic National Convention, and an order has apparently been issued to not let anyone into the floor sections. Even U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin, who just spoke on stage, was turned away.

In the U.S. we talk about creating "3rd Places" where people can hang out outside of work or home. Unfortunately, most of these places are private and involve buying over priced food. Barcelona's entire urban fabric is made up of 3rd Places, however. The private ones have…

PSA for autists: When people invite you to dinner, a movie or some other activity, the activity may just be a fun excuse to meet up, and the real objective of the gathering may be to socialise. I find this endearing, but I want to share it because for years I didn’t know this…
