Mamdani is not just filling the potholes with the crew. He's creating a visual and personal reminder of the dignity inherent in all of these anonymous government jobs.

I see a certain science fiction writer has reopened the discussion about the difference between “clever” and “smart.” Which may be one of the defining problems of our age. The tech masters and finance guys of the universe are monumentally clever, but I cannot name single one who is smart.

I, like many geeks, know a staggering amount about a number of media I’ve never actually seen. It’s time to watch
#DS9
