I presume this isn't honest commentary but rather bad-faith narrative framing to grease the skids for the kind of escalation they're hoping for.

(The lengths we will sometimes go to to avoid our domestic responsibilities. I kid of course. Alex appears to be both a great dad and a super-hero.)

Alex and I both have several young kids. I joked with my wife, "Alex, just change the damn diapers and do the dishes, man."

This past year my young daughters (a five-year old and 2-year- old twins) really got in to your music and their dancing and singing brought them and me so much joy. As an amateur musician myself, one of my biggest hopes is that I can help foster in them a lifelong love of music. Thank you, Raffi.

Hey I have a small (seven gallon) rimless tank I got from Aquarium Zen I'm not using anymore. Let me know if this fish thing goes somewhere and you end up wanting another tank. :)

I like this but I'm doing the math here and $200M/900k people on SNAP is $222 which seems plausible as an average monthly benefit. Are you sure the $200M is annual and not monthly?

I'd totally forgotten about this song. I'm gonna go learn it and play it for my kids now. :) Thank you!

Gen X and the elder millennials in the US had grandparents who fought Nazis. I (1983) grew up with that personal connection to the history. I guess I hadn’t considered that the generations after me don’t have that.

Yeah why entice voters with a clear vision of they'll get for $54B when you can entice them with the thrill of [checks notes] whatever is left after decades of bureaucracy and legal challenges?
