A friend who was in the first significant cohort of Jewish students to go to the ivy league shared the advice he got from his dad: "Act British, think Yiddish".

I have been to multiple talks this year by smart people who said um/uhhh between every sentence and sometimes even within most sentences. This is a distracting verbal quirk that lessens your effectiveness as a speaker...consider filling pauses with silence.
Well-turned obit of former @TheAtlantic editor William Whitworth. He believed in publishing diverse opinions, including some he didn't agree with - unfashionable sensibility today but an admirable one. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Many Americans think work is the key to happiness. They’re wrong.👇🏼 “When it comes to predicting happiness, a good marriage is far more important than how much education you get, how much 💵 you make & yes, even how satisfied you are w your work.” theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Insurance benefit parity for substance use and mental health disorders has never been closer: Large, medium, and small employer provided plans, CHIP, traditional Medicare Part B, state exchanges, & Medicaid expansion all have it. Need Medicare Advantage to complete the quilt.
An Oxford comma walks into a bar and spends the evening watching the television getting drunk and smoking cigars.
Re: "I'm a professor" Bertrand Russell was once beaten by a police officer at a peace rally. When admonished that the man he was hitting was the son of a Viscount, the officer began to hit him harder.
When you see a video clip online that outrages you, try this before your go ballistic -- search for the clip and look at longer (i.e., unedited) versions of it, which often provide context that completely changes the meaning of what you are seeing.

Seizing a public space, putting on masks and vests as a uniform, then using coercion to deprive a person of that public space while you refuse to explain why is the essence of undemocratic policing. Police abolition was always really about seizing police powers for illiberal use.
