Economics & Marginalia: April 5, 2024

These links, the second since our makeover, are exceptional in another way: I’m writing them on a Wednesday evening, and they’ll be sent out some time on Friday by my brilliant colleagues in communications. I don’t normally write these ahead of time: they’re drafted directly into an email, with the only formatting the bolding and the numbering (comms put it in the fancy new design), right before I sign off on Friday evenings, but this week I’m taking off for the next three Fridays and I wanted to write one more Marginalia before going.

Economics & Marginalia: February 23, 2024

Today, my son walked into one of my meetings to demand I dismantle one of his toy trucks (it’s touching how much faith he has in my non-existent facility with tools), and on being told I would do it after the meeting, declared that he would wait for me. He sat down by my chair and started howling at the top of his voice to render the meeting impossible to continue (fortunately, we were already wrapping up) and then happily toddled downstairs when I exited the Zoom call. It’s incredible how far a complete disregard for normal social norms will go towards getting you what you want; and depressing to see how this lesson has been taken on by political grifters the world around.

Economics & Marginalia: February 9, 2024

An update to last week’s intro: after a solid week of negotiation with my 3-year-old (whom the FBI should hire to conduct hostage negotiations, so good is he at getting his way and wearing down his opponent), we have agreed that the new bed I ill-advisedly constructed for him just before bedtime does not need to be ‘thrown in the bin’.
