Dropped the kid off at school on this last school day of the year, and it's 52 degrees outside.

So naturally the conversation between every parent was, "So how about this weather?"

Why are we all are very good at asking the obvious question about weather, but not very good about asking obvious questions across other areas of life?

Like, imagine we asked each other: "So how about the Child Tax Credit getting cut from the omnibus bill...?

@joshsternberg Because it’s a safe talk. The weather isn’t political. No one casts their vote for rain, and then expects it to rain when more people vote for rain.

@JPZ would be interesting to start having idle chit chat with: "so, how about that insurrection?"

@joshsternberg right! Buuuuut I’d wager a shiny quarter that it wouldn’t be so “idle” 😆
