I'm going to be going out to New Hampshire in a few weeks and then Iowa later in the summer, camping with my kids, and we're going to try to see some of the candidates on the stump.

First question: Any advice on how to get info on all the candidates' events without trawling all of their websites and so on? I'm sure some of y'all have done this. Tips?

Second question: What questions should I ask the various candidates if I get the chance? Looking for ideas for questions tailored to individual candidates, and questions that I might actually ask them.

Alright, I've seen too many dumb blue check marks throwing the Spurs under the bus for KD's injury even though we're not in the playoffs. I've decided to roughly chronicle what I remember about last season and how Kawhi is not innocent in all this.

#Spurs #Raptors #Kawhi

1. Spurs gave Kawhi the keys to his injury in August 2017. They had diagnosed him with Quadriceps Tendinopathy (a degenerative disease that can be treated but never healed). Kawhi and his camp sought out multiple opinions and settled on Philly's doctor (who misdiagnosed Fultz)...

The diagnosis was atrophy instead of Tendinopathy. That can be healed with the right treatment....

Biggest cheer during @iowademocrats chair @troymprice's opening remarks came after he predicted #Iowa Ds will "send @joniernst into an early retirement." #IASen #HallofFame

@CoryBooker

Sen @CoryBooker is 1st candidate to speak at #HallofFame event. (19 candidates will each have 5 minutes)
"We are being tested. This is a moral moment in America, and we must meet this test. I'm running for president because we can't take 4 more years of Donald Trump." #iacaucus

@CoryBooker

But @CoryBooker isn't just running to beat Donald Trump. That's the floor, not the ceiling. We can't just run on what we are against. Democrats need to tell people what we are for. "Every American needs health care, and make no mistake, abortion is health care." #iacaucus

Going to read “The Right Side of History”. This will be some mixture of enlightening, been there done that, and hate-read dunkathon. Let’s see.

No idea what Shapiro’s background is outside trolling libs, but I maybe he’s sort of Straussian? The ‘Jerusalem plus Athens’ thing.

So the thesis is ‘things have never been better, but we’re fucking it up now.’ Pinker + angst.

‘We’ in the book is Americans, natch.

Shall we talk about BEAUTIFUL LANGUAGE in today's #TenThings thread? About what to look for as you edit and how to weed out the wheat from the chaff? For me, this is usually a draft 4-ish thing, but I'm always on the look out for clunky sentences. TO KILL THEM.

1. The most important rule of beautiful language is that you don't get hung up on it while writing your first draft. Don't spend an hour with the thesaurus. Don't worry over the rhythm on your first page. Vomit up the first draft; make it beautiful later, over several drafts.

1.5 Fun fact: I wrote my 1st book in 2009, but I *tried* to write a book in 2003. Never got past the 1st paragraph because I couldn't decide on the heroine's eye color. I thought IT WAS IMPORTANT. It wasn't. Forward momentum is more important than eye color, adjectives, ANYTHING.
