When I lost 45 pounds last year, I didn't have to endure pain; I just had to pay attention to when I was hungry.

Yesterday was my last day as a staff writer at @TheAtlantic.
It has been such an honor to work here, surrounded by brilliant, thoughtful people.

@MarioNawfal No, we need more like double that number yesterday!
The number of people who are super talented engineers AND super motivated in the USA is far too low.

Presidents do not have to be saints, and we hope that a second term for Donald Trump would avoid disaster. But he poses an unacceptable risk to America and the world. If The Economist had a vote, we would cast it for Kamala Harris econ.st/3NKsH2r
Gov. Tim Walz in Pennsylvania:

Then Jesus said unto the sick, “you better have insurance.”
Then Jesus said unto the stranger, “are you here legally?”
Then Jesus said unto the hungry, “my taxes better not be paying for these loaves and fishes.”
Then Jesus said unto the poor, “this is your own fault.”
