@JessicaGenetics Sounds like my favorite American linens company. Went order sheets yesterday- asked for email to get a discount. I entered it. Then it asked for my DOB. For sheets. So I closed my browser and asked grok for an alternative. @redlandcotton

@Empisiiii That’s awfully generous- Why should they get full-time pay for part-time work? And since they create nothing & take their salary from those who do, they should pay what small business do for healthcare, $1200+ per family member.

@LeaveDelaware Great, @GregAbbott_TX will give them every exemption & freebie imaginable to the great detriment of working Texans, as usual.

@JesseKellyDC Nah, sauce bread day was a disappointment. Chicken fried steak with fries & gravy on top, though.. good day!

@snjwieiiwidje @SawyerMerritt @Tesla With USAA I pay $30/mo more for full-coverage on my Model Y than I did for liability only on my Lexus RX-350.

In May 2016, 15-year-old Karinya “Yaya” Chen was in hospice care in Austin, Texas after years of fighting cancer. She had tickets to see Florence The Machine, but by the night of the concert, she was simply too sick to go.

So the people at Hospice Austin reached out to the band.

And Florence Welch came to her.

Florence and guitarist Rob Ackroyd walked into Karinya’s room and gave her the concert she couldn't make it to. They sang “Shake It Out” and “Dog Days Are Over,” with Karinya singing and harmonizing right alongside them.

A few months later, Karinya lost her battle with cancer at just 15 years old.

But for one afternoon, none of that seemed to matter.

There was just a young girl, one of her favorite singers, a guitar, a room full of people who loved her... and music.

Sometimes the smallest act of kindness can become one of the biggest moments of someone's life.

This is what being human is supposed to look like.🙏

@bofrench Every one of these posts should have, "My plan in comments." Otherwise, what's the point?

@RepThomasMassie @PrometheanActn Please speak to this.

[Caracat @CaracatTX]

True. Not jazzed to vote for those who despise, belittle & displace us, lie continually, steal from us daily to enrich themselves & foreigners, and do everything in their power to destroy Texas and our childrens’ future. Thank you Sir, may I have another? @GregAbbott_TX, @DanPatrick and all the rest of them.

@SevierlyBlessed YES. Bring back ginger @Altoids!

@MikeBales Felt exactly the same till I got a Tesla w/ FSD. I have reentered the world, and it’s pretty amazing.

This video of Latvians singing The Lord's Prayer is so unbelievably moving and beautiful that I am going to pin it for a quick and easy timeline cleanse when needed. Bookmark this.

@RogerSeheult While I dread it with my whole heart, I’m beginning to hope they pass it. Give the pro-DSTers exactly what they think they want. Otherwise the debate will never end.

I am not a political person. The scientific community and the data and evidence overwhelmingly shows that morning sunlight is imperative for good health.

There are Republicans and Democrats both on the right side of this as seen by legislation just introduced - bipartisan calling for permanent standard time. But there are also Republicans and Democrats on the wrong side of this issue that because of either intellectual laziness or willful ignorance have voted for a bill that will remove morning sunlight for hundreds of millions of people that they are financially medically responsible for, and it will increase the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease as well as certain types of cancers that we have evidence for.

I am a boarded Sleep specialist, which means that I am an expert in this field.

This is not my opinion, but the position of thousands of professionals who understand the circadian rhythm and the tremendous impact that this will have hundreds of millions of people in the United States.

It is completely untenable that the supreme governing body of our country would make a decision about this without weighing the evidence.

Making standard time permanent is literally the lowest hanging fruit that we could decide to improve the health of our country. Instead, we have politicians going on this platform to boast that they gave more sunlight to their constituents. As if the stroke of their mighty pen could add one second to the amount of sunlight that comes from the sun.

Complete ignorance.

@ChrisMartzWX I fail to see the bright side of exchanging four months of quality sleep for zero. I’d rather keep the miserable change than feel terrible year round.

[Caracat @CaracatTX]

@jackunheard Of course they will. Government time forever, despite its abysmal record of failure. They can’t bear a healthy, flourishing populace. Worse sleep, poorer health and increased death. It’s the deep state way.

@hthieblot https://t.co/DpGuLql1cC was fun.

[Caracat @CaracatTX]

@PapiTrumpo @MamaMac_ghost Love you, but this is some dystopian bullshit.

[Caracat @CaracatTX]

@EricLDaugh Government time forever is worse than the time change.

It works until you get Keith Holmes from HCAD as your appraiser. Keith makes up utter nonsense on the spot. “Square footage is irrelevant.” “Condition barely matters. Grade C is pretty close to a B, and B is pretty much an A.” “We don’t allow deductions for labor costs.” At 130 lbs I am supposed to remove and install a 5 ton A/C unit myself, dig 100 ft of French drains & work foundation pylons under my house with a garden spade.
