We can fix it. We have the technology. OK. We need to create the technology. Alright. The policy guys are mucking with the technology. Relax. WE'RE ON IT.

    I'm increasingly thinking that every functioning system has two forms: The abstraction that outsiders are led to believe, and the reality that insiders actually and carefully operate. You don't incrementally learn a system. You eventually unlearn its necessary lies.

    Active shooter drills are child abuse, in a uniquely awful way. I worry this particular security theatre manufactures the active shooters it’s supposed to be managing. Kids learn what you teach them. You don’t always know what they learn. It would take a while to find out.

    If somebody helped you — always feel free to let them know. They may not. Really. There is no statute of limitations on being thankful. Years, decades, doesn’t matter. Now is always a good time. Best when you don’t need them for any reason. Notice the helpers.

    Banning kidnapped children from hugging isn't even Nazi shit. It's Dolores Umbridge shit. There's a reason she's the most feared and despised character @jk_rowling ever created. Kids know Voldemort isn't real.

    It’s genuinely exhausting seeing Twitter get raged against for making a very, very hard call, correctly. Stop it, or nobody will ever do anything not aggressively legislated as a requirement.
