@Komaniecki_R Thanks for the tags @TrevorBumgarner and @NatalieBrender :)

Here's one broad tip and one practical tip:
1) Be clear and limit adjectives. More telling, less impressing.
2) Count how many Capitalized Names you have in your bio. See what happens if you cut that number in half.

@phongmusic Pho Vietnam, right off the b/d grand st stop, has great Banh mi (and other fantastic viet food too like canh chua and thit kho)

@Komaniecki_R Is red in this scenario only playing something perfectly when you've never seen the music before, and then returning to your scrub self afterwards?

@Noahpinion It feels obvious that discrediting a "blame China" narrative is a protective reflex when "blame China" leads to "fuck Asians let's beat em and shoot em".

Sure, maybe not the most accurate way to evaluate new info, but seems weird to imply it's just woke signaling or something

@mytrainerlauren I’ve decided that medication hasn’t solved all my problems, but it’s solved my ADHD problems, which by itself makes a huge difference. Does that make sense?

[John Hong @John_Hong]

Hi everyone, this is my "I was diagnosed with ADHD and started medication today" tweet.

ADHD has made me bizarrely paralyzed from doing things I WANTED to do. (Vs procrastination, which is not doing things you DON'T want to do).

So here's a short 🧵 on how I got to this point..

[John Hong @John_Hong]

@mytrainerlauren Yea that placebo effect fear never quite goes away lol. But right now I’m in a stretch where I haven’t been able to access medication for the past several weeks and the difference is very noticeable, so pretty confident it’s not placebo!

[John Hong @John_Hong]

@backlon But how would I feel superior to others with different preferences than me?

[John Hong @John_Hong]

@NateCourtright @juddgreenstein The last third of the regular season was much more interesting because of the playin, imho

[John Hong @John_Hong]

@BaronofAaron @photodouze @reneritchie Classical music listeners make up too small of a demo for this to be fixed imho. IDAGIO provides a great solution if you’re willing to eat the extra fee/switch to a classical only service

@PoliticsDogs @mattyglesias I think his subtext is that the threshold for mentioning hypothetical scenarios at all in news about the virus should be higher.

Just so we’re clear,

the (real!) Metropolitan Opera is selling a sleep mask that “mimics the alluring eyes of an Indian princess or Japanese Geisha girl”.
