    The fact that you’re confused does not make me confusing.

    I wish there were an app to match the people stress baking with the people stress eating.

    Congratulations, Madam Secretary. Come 5 o’clock, I imagine many a mojito will be lifted in your honor.

    Economics isn’t just something you find in a textbook. It can be a potent tool to right past wrongs and improve people’s lives. That’s why so many of Treasury’s 84,000 public servants joined the Department. Today, I am proud to be one of them.

    Verb the noun, don't let the noun verb you.

    I wrote a few words on the late Grant Imahara for @NYTmag. (Grant was recognizable to most of us from @Discovery’s Mythbusters.) Thx to @donttrythis & @FonHDavis for the memories (also to @adamwwolf for contextualizing Grant’s status as engineering icon).
    Imahara at a birthday party in Los Angeles in 2014.

    I just accidentally drank from a tumbler full of soapy water. I also just cleaned my computer for the very last time.
