Thank you, @sunildasgupta4 for featuring my piano music on @ihppod! I owe a tremendous thank you to my #teacher@ulises_eliseo, who performed, recorded, and produced the music. He helped me take the original kernels and make them into 2 compositions! #PhrygianHarmonic

Why are @mcdcc primaries low turn-out? #MoCoMD is 70% D, ppl shd vote now to have an impact in Nov but they aren’t. The ballot is too long & complex—even high-interest voters are overwhelmed. With @ihppod, we built #IHPbot, a solution 4 that. https://t.co/ERwRoeMZs0
