It still amazes me that Homan thinks AOC is unintelligent. She'll wipe the floor with you buddy. Let's see you both take a Mensa test.

Despite Stephen Miller's claim, California is not a hell hole. I live here and it is a great place. Lots of scenic beauty and lots of acceptance of diversity in all forms.

JD Vance faced no consequences for his smears of Haitians in Springfield, yet he clutches his pears when his buddy Stephen Miller is called "hateful."

The number of people who have entered Trump's orbit who have had acrimonious fallings out with him is really quite impressive. This was true before the recent election and yet people voted for him anyway.

I like to call my cat nonsense names, the most recent iteration being "Schlippy McSchloppy." Just now, as I was retrieving my recycling bin from the curb, I loudly exclaimed "Schlippy McSchloppy" for no reason other than the fun of it. Then I noticed a woman walking her dog giving me a strange look.

The Musk-Trump spat is hilarious, and yet, what does it get us? The MAGA movement is still dismantling America and nobody is there to stop it except, to some extent, the courts.

Had some awesome Chicago deep dish pizza for dinner at The Shop in Rancho Bernardo. It is very hard to find outside of the Chicago area.

I'll be speaking about diamond cut grading at this virtual conference. Assessing the quality of diamonds which are not standard round brilliant cuts is a fascinating challenge due to the complexity of the parameter spaces governing their geometry. #diamonds #diamondgrading #math #raytracing

Had a positive optimistic dream last night. I was trying to figure out how to get out of a building. The entrance wasn't where I thought it was. But then I did find it. I went outside and although I was still in a courtyard, there were screened windows allowing me to see outside. 1/3

I enjoy watching flat earth debunkers. It’s fascinating how many ways you can prove Earth’s curvature yourself, but I think they’re arguing on the wrong level. Yes, you can rebut flat earth claims with facts and logic—but the real rebuttal is that the idea is stupid beyond belief.

My cat has started coming into my office at dinner time and pawing at my back to let me know he's hungry.
