Elon is unhappy in his brand and wants to create a new one with which he can better identify? Got it. It's his company, sooo...

Prediction: He will get SUPER upset at people who refuse to honor his choice by continuing to call it Twitter.

I highly recommend this book. I wanted to learn more about the political, economic, and societal factors that shaped the South and this book delivered and then some. Our history is often ugly, and because we do not learn it, we are repeating it RIGHT NOW. This is not a drill.

Headline: "Famous person you like ABSOULTELY SHREDS person you detest"

*clicks greedily to open page*

Actual story: Famous person you like says "I don't like that person, and I disagree with them on many issues."

With my 13yo daughter looking over my shoulder as I typed, I was trying to show her what the flowers I planted would look like in bloom. Instead we learned about a stripper known for her "inventive use of stage props." Belly laughs ensued.

My work pet peeves:
(1) "That's a great question." (I know, that's why I asked it. I'd like an answer, not an ego stroke, please. This is especially irksome in an interview.)
(2) "This is a busy slide so I won't go through all of it..." (proceeds to go through ALL. OF. IT.)

Yours?

This was waiting for me in my inbox this morning. No word on the 16 people killed in his home state this weekend by weaponized dehumanization. Dehumanization that he continues in this letter by blaming China, Mexico, and Biden for US fentanyl deaths.

I LOVE this station - amazing depth and diversity. And yesterday was the best - they deviated from their usual Artist of the Day format to celebrate a year rather than a single artist. And that year? 1993!! 10K Maniacs w/ David Byrne, Elliott Smith, Mazzy Star all in a row! https://wumb.org/

My instict was to sing this to the tune of "Shout" by Tears for Fears. I was disappointed when the match broke down in the 2nd line, but I appreciate being reminded of an awesome song! So, thanks?

Back in the late 80s or early 90s my aunt and I stumbled upon this little gem playing on the local TV station on Easter, and it makes me laugh to this day to think about it.

"Currently, the legislation will affect three student-athletes in the state, according to the Kansas State High School Sports and Activities Association."

As a KS native, this sucks. So much energy aimed at THREE people. And the fact this was followed by another anti-trans bill makes it clear...

I'm enraged that it happened, but I'm glad TN GOP chose the order of votes they did. Sparing Johnson in the 2nd vote removes any chance of plausible deniability. The blatant racism is on full display for all to see. Don't look away.

"...to gain insight from our past mistakes and successes..."

I have a sneaking suspicion that the Governor and I disagree on definitions for these. I am so utterly exhausted by plausible deniability tactics, and by the profound reluctance for journalists to challenge them.

I won't be the least bit surprised if, after reading tweets with Blue-Check analysis that should have been done in the first place, we see a tweet today saying "April Fools!" as if it was the plan all along.

Ok, I got almost zero engagement on this the first time around, but I get a second chance! I really want to know what your signs would say. And this is no longer a rhetorical question!!

100% YES! to this sentiment. I also would love to see more dialogue in threads. Most folks are window shopping it seems. Go in the store! Chat up the sales clerk! Buy something pretty!

Republican policies are deadly. Like for real - not hyperbole. This paper reviews pre-COVID data, so the increasing mortality gap between Dem- and Rep-voting counties is likely due to Republican resistance to expanded Medicare and 'Obamacare.'

I just passed a sobriety test on the side of I-93 at noon. I was so confused until I remembered the date and the fact I'm in Boston.

Bucket list item checked off - My family and I became certified divers this week! I HIGHLY recommend the crew at Blue Water Divers BVI on Tortola. They were awesome, the underwater scenery was gorgeous, and the certification course even includes a dive through a wreck.
