I would be more likely to donate if the @dccc had my correct email address instead of sending it to the other Edward Abbott.

Well, this is some of the storm damage. We are okay and should have power back today. The breaker box didn’t arc, which is a goodness. #518wx Thanks to @nationalgrid and @ungermanelec for all they have done so far. https://t.co/GSMC76PbCq

1) I visit museums. 2) Even at the time, they were aware how transgressive the film was. None of the characters were “heroes”. It mocked the very nature of the best & brightest. 3) That this comes from Vice Media is unintentional irony. https://t.co/bBmooUhkKL

The “Clean Up Albany” crowd uses Albany as a slur related to government ineptitude. Chances are the bulk of these people share Mayor Koch’s view about the citizens of the city as well.

After spending ten minutes searching for a citation related to American involvement with Russia, I realized that it was a plot point in #HouseofCards and then I felt shame because this is the world we live in now.

Maybe because a lack of philosophy has led to a public that only understands the Manichaean dichotomy. The sixty year focus on STEM has forced people to demonstrate that how they do is more important than how they think. https://t.co/1P57HkIU4U

Twice this week Baby Boomer academics from NY have opined about things that show that academics & baby boomers are out of touch with what New Yorkers enjoy. NYers enjoy hip hop & NYers enjoy libraries. Maybe Boomers should quietly exit from the polis & tend to the oikos.
