“Because I needed the ‘West Wing’ audience to find President Bartlet’s intransigence heroic, I didn’t really dramatize any downward pull that his illness was having on his re-election chances,” Aaron Sorkin writes. “What if the show had gone another way?” nyti.ms/3yam7hl

Fired up #Starfield and didn’t even get out of the mining building before seeing a guy walking about on invisible legs. Torso bro just checking his locker and stuff. Bethesda. Bethesda never changes.

Me at 5 p.m. yesterday: I have hit my quota of “Midwest Nice” for the week. Me at 10 p.m. yesterday: I have hit my quota of “Midwest Nice” for the month.
