Remember that game we played when Charlie Sheen went off about tiger blood... ID that quote, Sheen or Gaddafi?

I think we need to start playing Trump or Tiger King.

@Robertc1970 This brand is a clusterfuck. Life asks us to try new things, and Subway asks us what the legal definition of bread is. 😂

There is pretentious and there’s this. And if you can guess who it’s for before the end - then you are either a twisted bastard or ... nope, just a twisted bastard. Watch it all the way through. All. The. Way. Through.

David Attenborough’s Netflix documentary is 💯. As he calls it, it is a witness statement for his life’s work. It is (as always) a beautifully narrated story of our world. This time though, of the human world, rather than the wild one which is disappearing. #maketheworldwildagain

@kcoleman I think @Twitter could really do with a “source“ option for tweets. I’m tired of reading things out of context with no follow up options.

Adults should have to source their facts just like kids have to show work on their math homework #levelup

Should we tell them? I wanna tell them..

For PEOPLE to build on, not companies

[Joanna Sides @JoSides]

If I ran the world, I would focus on building the best possible infrastructure for people to build on. An empowerment lattice. Trains, int’l shipping, universal housing, healthcare, and education. Shouldn’t the government’s job be to reduce the strain of survival, not add to it?

Seriously, who is running #disneyplus? How can you create a video player where the space bar doesn’t pause? This, among many other complaints for a platform that had YEARS to prepare

Everyone is making these 2020 jokes as if on Jan 1 everything is going to be great. I just want to set expectations. We will still be fighting a pandemic, political corruption, and racial injustice in 2021.

A perfect explanation of 4D in 30 seconds without words? Holy shit. https://t.co/NHKls1Caf2

Today I learned that the sentence "Why zip along quick, fam? Just relax and vibe" is an alternative to "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" that still uses every letter.

I explained that as the UK was no longer a member of the EU it of course no longer has political representation there.

This he said was "typical of the EU, they are punishing Britain because of Brexit"

This is how we should hear and respond to criticism. This.

[Lin-Manuel Miranda @Lin_Manuel]

Appreciate you so much, @brokeymcpoverty. All the criticisms are valid. The sheer tonnage of complexities & failings of these people I couldn’t get. Or wrestled with but cut. I took 6 years and fit as much as I could in a 2.5 hour musical. Did my best. It’s all fair game.

[Joanna Sides @JoSides]

Don't manage conflict, reduce it. Here's a lesson from Changing Perspectives (and yours truly) on how exactly to do that.
