I am retiring in three months and this is one of the main reasons that is possible.
Also not joking when I say that typing and data entry gave me more economic security and upward mobility and connective tissue to causes I care about than any other skill, save close reading.
From the realest of real ones.
There will be plenty of takes today about what Wisconsin's gubernatorial primary means for broader rhetorical proxy wars. This isn't one of them. It's about what a dad and a son talk about while driving home from a night where their hopes both swelled and crashed. thewhitepages.net/p/what-do-yo...

What’s the longest car ride that you’ve been a part of? In college, I did Central Mass to Huntsville, Alabama. Also New Haven, CT to Naples, FL with a stop in Asheville in between. I’ve only been driving for 9 years but longest I’ve done as a driver is Central Florida to Nashville.
Congratulations to the last ever Best Picture winner from Warner Bros.
