Like Gavin Newsom? @nolesfan2011.
America low-key hates "self-improvement." . We have an almost Italian admiration for Sprezzatura. We admire those who seem to win effortlessly, at a young age. The gifted High School Quarterback, the "Genius.".

@AnthonyGriz Very much so. To be honest we always had that contingent here, but they were mostly content to be relatively harmless club kids/hipsters/artists until actual adulthood took hold. Now there’s a lot more of them and they’ve replaced all of that harmless frivolity with political.

If a 39-year-old mayor was dating a 19-year-old hostess and getting her boozed up in public, would you trust him? Because that 39-year-old man was San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom

For generations, East Harlem has been promised a new subway, but leaders failed to get it done. The time for promises is over. The time for building is here. Today, the Second Avenue Subway extension is officially moving forward!

Apparently Trump wants to bring back cash bail in the Federal system and in Washington, DC where it has been abolished for over 30 years. @nolesfan2011 @NickyFrank30 @PeterMoskos @MattBoxer94.

@OSGuido @cornoisseur I personally have dealt with this issue in the US(New England) and trying to install duct work in a building that doesn't already have it to work with an air based heat pump that does both heating and cooling is really difficult.

there is a preference for hydronic heating systems i.e. forced hot water so heat pump sales and incentives are focused on water based systems that don't deliver cooling but the issue is lack of duct work and water based system can work with forced hot water. @OSGuido @cornoisseur.

Just from spending some time this weekend looking at apartment listings in London I am not sure sentiments like this are accurate. A lot of brand new buildings like you see out in the Docklands have new duct based central AC and heating. In the UK and Europe generally.
@mattyglesias In Britain the government will give you a subsidy for installing a heat pump, but only if it can't work as an AC unit.

Yeah, same Harry Truman who wanted to draft striking steel workers into the Army. @nolesfan2011 @NickyFrank30 @avrilbradley23.
Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.��. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952.

@cornoisseur @HopfJames @SteveAplin @cadlam @MeredithAngwin @xiaowang1984 For my Illinois friends apparently, JB was never invited or intended to be at this meeting which was of state/provinces from Ontario east towards the ocean(i.e. NY, MA, NB, etc.) Still can't help but say IL is falling behind NY and even MA the longer the moratorium stays.

Interest to see Doug talking nuclear with Hochul and JB Pritzker nowhere in sight. @cornoisseur @HopfJames @SteveAplin @cadlam @MeredithAngwin @xiaowang1984.
It was a pleasure to sit down with my friend Governor @KathyHochul in Boston. New York and Ontario are working together to advance small modular nuclear reactors as we build a more integrated electricity grid that can power jobs and economic growth on both sides of the border.

I have heard the rumor about Chirac's love child in Japan as well. @jclavel2003.
Jacques Chirac preferred Japan above all other non-Western cultures. It got to the point he even annoyed Japanese officials with his knowledge of Japanese history. He visited Japan over 40 times (really excessive) in official capacity. He supposedly had a love child in Japan too.
