Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

  • Go fuck yourself. This is someone who was a child when he watched his friends die to a school shooter. And then faced the worst that the rightwing noise machine could throw at him as they accused him of being a crisis actor and denied that the event happened at all. He has been attacked by politicians and media since before his voice changed. So fuck off with your milquetoast judgments about how something seems a bit “off” with his public persona.

  • I honestly don’t know. I’m physically at the office 35 hours a week. But I’m a knowledge worker and the problems I deal with are always rattling around in my head. So I think about them while driving or at the gym. If there was a way to track that I suppose it might be 70+ hours.
