Trump’s Muslim Ban Isn’t Just Inhumane—It’ll Make America Dumber
One thing people seem to have missed is that “make American great again” doesn’t mean the same thing to Trump as it does to literally anyone else in the world. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

President Trump, we know what you’re up to
Michael Nutter: We see all of these purposely hurtful, distracting and egomaniacal tactics for what they are — publicly available literature would indicate that you may apparently be displaying signs of malignant narcissism and narcissistic leadership . Apparently?

OmniFocus Users
Marius Masalar on OmniFocus users: The second group of people manage their tasks like monks manage their religion.
