I have decided to leave X. Trending topics and my personal feed have too many extreme, angry, and/or hateful comments - unhealthy for me and for a civil society.

Der Sieg von Trump ist nicht nur auf so vielen politischen Ebenen eine Katastrophe. Es sendet vor allem in die ganze Welt das verheerende Signal, dass man mit Lügen, Gewaltandrohungen, der Dämonisierung des politischen Gegners und jeglicher Missachtung demokratischer Spielregeln, tatsächlich Wahlen gewinnen kann. Das wird Populisten weltweit ermutigen es ihm nachzumachen, leider auch in 🇩🇪. Ich hoffe einfach nur, dass Anstand und Vernunft eines Tages wieder mehrheitsfähig werden. Mögen wieder bessere Tage kommen🙏 #USElections2024

Orban the Toad is a Kremlin puppet wreaking havoc and making the EU parliament dysfunctional.

Sharing this post that I saw on Blue Sky. As Milton bears down on Florida, and recovery continues from Helene, a good reminder that a large portion of the workforce that helps Americans recover from natural disasters are immigrants of all immigration statuses.

Greg, hate is not the answer for everything:

You were promised econ studies on the effects of immigration on house prices. So let's deliver: An important new study finds that more robust enforcement of immigration laws reduces the construction workforce, which has led to higher house prices. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…
