My students' writing topic was "If you could send one modern item back in time to one specific era, what item and era would you pick?".@fesshole perhaps consider a rabid honey badger? They usually go for the scrotum. Insurance.

The USA went to war with Iran — a nation of 93 million people — because Trump had a strong feeling Iran would go to war with the USA.@randahl policy based on however the mushroomoid hangs. I guess that’s how he managed to bankrupt so many businesses, including multiple casinos. Blindly trusting intuition that’s consistently wrong.

Trump Hasn’t a F*cking Clue What He’s Doing https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trump-has-no-fcking-idea-what-hes?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon@EdwardCam285 @rbreich I can only conclude that his followers liked the crimes and especially that he got away with all of them.

Trump Hasn’t a F*cking Clue What He’s Doing https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trump-has-no-fcking-idea-what-hes?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon@rbreich Trump has never faced any consequences for his actions, courtesy of the US “justice” system, so it extremely unlikely to happen now. The US as a country, however, is in for a wild ride.
Trump’s really speedrunning the inevitable decline of the USA, while starting conflicts, burning bridges, and waging war on the American people. I don’t think that the damage he caused, in the name of 80 million MAGAmericans, can ever be undone.

FOUND IT@lokeloski I’ve seen this attitude even in some highly skilled people.
The idea that what they’re doing is obviously complex and requires deep knowledge and skills, but work that others are doing is obviously trivial. Very surprising.
It’s not uncommon for undergraduates to assume some field is easy, because the introductory course they had on it was, but for accomplished professors to have similar ideas about fields outside of their expertise? Why? Is there a psychologist in the house?
