I'd be all about changing the rules about impeachment at this point.
Since we've got a party system anyway, we need something that's closer to a simple no confidence vote.

btw, this is research into seemingly simple real life problems, which is something I'm always curious about

That's the thing. Bureacracy is going to exist if you're a big entity.
You can have more accountability or more autonomy, but tearing it apart just means you have problems doing things.
Good news neurotic autists with major depressive disorders and ADHD- you're more likely to have kids than that tall, physically fit person who thinks they're healthy

Been there. You respond to one of their posts, and get a "???" and are completely embarrassed
Probably fake, but I choose to believe.
I mean, sometimes you have to take it like a b&^*&h before you can give it like a man. I get it.
If you search the title, there's a link to the pdf (about 18 pages off of FP weekly)as the first google result. Wasn't able to get the address on the phone
To give full credit, I pulled this off a Matt Yglessias post on twitter
I feel ya, bro
Hear the daughter and her friend reading Romeo and Juliet in the bedroom next to me.
Do quick search to see where they are in the play, bust in on target

I was wondering if they'd actually find something to pursue. Don't think it's going to be as fun for them when the other side gets to swing back
Giving someone six inches and taking thirty six minutes is the story of my life

I think it's mostly to troll other girls, but popehat's rule of goats eventually comes into play.
I have a couple books in this vein
Dick and Jane and Vampires (highly rec)

This how I'm doing twitter and bluesky right now. Switching every so often
As I tell the kids, "Pain is the Great Teacher"
Girls are harder later. The techniques you can use on kids no longer work. Their brains are byzantine lockboxes, and they're hard to figure out.
Boys will still do dangerous and stupid stuff, but they do it out of sight, but their brains are easier to look into, so more predictable
It shifts.
(My experience, caveats etc) Girls are easy early. They don't require the same level of supervision.
Boys are harder early. They get into more stuff, have problems sitting still, etc 1/

What's funny is I don't mind about the quiz quality (except I think they ask weird questions). The highlight for me is we get to pick books together so it goes like a book club.
Oh, and I can be mischievous with the boy and pick things like Machiavelli and Heinlein
The worst thing is the algo knows I'm 50. You can probably deduce what I see the most of.
Whatever the choices are, I hope whoever creates the tests for Accelerated Reader adds those books.
There's almost nothing in the classics section to toss at the kids. This is especially bad because the school lets the kids pick the book they want- they just need the points.
Yes, but took a classic class in HS
