If there is any solace to be taken from the theology in Groundhog Day it’s that through profound selflessness we will eventually escape this endless today, which seems an excellent moral to apply to this pandemic.

I think my next book should be called “Bridges I Have Burned, and How Each One Brought Me Joy”

I still think about William Shatner coming down from space to share his emotional epiphany about the fearfulness of the heavens only for Bezos to nod, unhearing, and turn to spray a bikini babe with champagne.

In my naiveté, I really thought the pandemic might cause us to realize the way all of our lives and health are bound up together, and that things like sick leave, health care, etc are not just necessities for individuals, but things that in a broader sense make our society better

Saying that wearing a mask during a pandemic is "living in fear" is like saying that using oven mitts means you're "afraid" of the oven.

I get it now. Ted and Heidi Cruz wanted their children to be safe, to have basic sanitary services like heat and running water, to leave behind a third-world apocalyptic nightmare for a safer place. Like so many parents before them, they decided to cross the Mexican border.

I find Americans a theatrical people. One of the ways in which this theatricality shows up is in what I will call "rationality theater" where one puts on a big show of being evenhanded before delivering a self-serving defense of the status quo in a calming podcast-ready voice.
