Isn’t it possible to make it freely available by prescription, like anti-statins or antidepressants, but not in brownies and soft drinks?

The genius of @mluckovichajc rears it’s ugly head once again. I’d feel better if he was in charge, plus he would continue drawing cartoons putting down his own presidency. I would watch that show. pic.twitter.com/31o42BT65P

I'm thinking of forming an exploratory committee to consider if now is a good time for me to put cedar shoe trees in all of my shoes. Thoughts?

I know my perspective on marijuana is affected by being a parent. I'd say that when it comes to potential harm, maybe we should think like a parent. newyorker.com/magazine/2019/…

Steve, what do you think our staff calls me? I should have known they were just being scholarly.

I have always enjoyed interviewing @BorisJohnson, admire his wit, & huge sentimental love for London. He knows how its openness makes London so great. But he baffles me on Brexit. bbc.com/news/av/uk-pol…

The @USPS has learned from private industry: you can't complain a post office isn't working because that's not an item on the dropdown menu. So the problem doesn't exist. Joseph Heller's world. Employees told us nothing would get done w/out complaints, which are not possible.

Snow day. Nothing reaches me more than the way younger kids look up to our fifteen year old, and the time she takes to play with them. Hope your children are happy, successful, and smart. Be grateful and proud when you see they are kind, fun, and good.

Joy, it's good to have you along on any platform--but please remember how important it is to support your local station! We couldn't put pieces on NPROne if the stations didn't put on our shows!

Joy, my weekly essay has been on our show a long time. We'll have to figure out a way to make it understood better in context on NPR One.

"She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
And she's as funny as Jim Gaffigan."
Better?

I can't quote what specific remark prompts this observation today, but my wife is the funniest person in the world. Like a beautiful, French @JimGaffigan (not that he's not beautiful in his own way; I don't know about his French).
