When you have a child, people tell you, “They grow up so fast.” There’s probably some truth to this, but then again I think that it’s pretty awesome when kids can wipe their own rears and forage for their own chocolate milk. I kid, I kid. You can actually start ignoring them at a much earlier age. It builds character.
Curating this, though, is a much more labor-intensive endeavor. And age doesn’t really make it any easier, but at least it does get some consternation from angry Trump fans who think that The Federalist should stick to publishing other articles that they also hate and that’s not nothing.

Language is a beautiful and magical thing. As you head into the Christmas season, remember that you can give gifts not just of material items or your presence, but of words. Sometimes it’s just easier to buy things, though. But, you don’t have to buy really awesome things. It’s all in how you sell it.
