Our managing director came to my desk to tell me he really enjoyed reading a press release I wrote. That was awesome! Do you have any work highlights this week?

Here's the thing that seems to have gotten lost these past two weeks...I grew up on this apparently misguided notion that all judges are supposed to be even-tempered, honorable, and above politics. ALL judges, not just SCOTUS.Even if you believe Kavanaugh, doesn't his behavior this past week give you pause? Does he really seem like a guy who can be judicial?I don't understand why the GOP didn't move on to another conservative candidate...setting aside the fact that SCOTUS shouldn't even be partisan.

@freemo Oh I agree with you that everyone should be able to be free to be themselves in their private life (and here's hoping that their true character isn't shit).But once you're in government, you're representing your government and your role as soon as you agree to an interview on a major news network or in a Senate hearing. If you were in a job interview, you'd be expected to behave as you would at work, not at home with a beer.

@freemo That is a larger discussion that can certainly be complicated. But SCOTUS judges are supposed to have squeaky-clean records. Even if you allow them some transgressions, what I'm pointing out specifically is how Kavanaugh has reacted, in public, under pressure. People have pointed out Clarence Thomas was a cool as a cucumber during the Anita Hill hearing...

@snder @freemo There's no rule about impersonating public figures?

@freemo @snder Yeah I don't mind a parody account, but I feel badly for people who think this is real, especially because of the birdsite-like verification checkmark.

@freemo @neverfadingwood @Surasanji Reconfiguring the way they get their income, that's understandable. "Sterilising" them, though? Have you...learned history?

@freemo @neverfadingwood @Surasanji I know how you mean this, and I'm sure you're right... but that's still how this all starts.

@freemo I don't even like horror, and I'm obsessed with it. It's like what True Detective (season 1) did for the classic whodunit...elevating it into this richly drawn, pitch-perfect story
