@TiffanyFong We're all small accounts out here. Small accounts with big plans workin' in the background.

@TiffanyFongEtc Stainless Steel or Cast Iron, or for a lighter-weight option Carbon Steel.

Then heat them up before adding any oil, then heat the oil before adding food, and the pans become non-stick 99% of the time.

YouTube will tell you more.

Before CWSA was on YouTube and Rumble, #ScottAdams would broadcast on Periscope.

In 2018, I gathered a handful of my favorites.

Here they are.

Miss you already @ScottAdamsSays

@romepix I see Lana, I’m in.
I see RomePix, I’m in.
I hear music I don’t know, I’m in.
I see records I don’t know, I’m in.

(Then I see Lana 3 times and I’m a believer)

@GeorgeBruno George that’s beautiful. I often think of the blues lines,

🎤 Nobody knows you
when you’re down and out 🎶

and I think,

Who can I call?

Scott Adams never lost the ability to surprise me with his ideas and observations. He could comment on the same event or situation everyone else was looking at and reveal a new angle or a whole new world. My brain grew every time I heard his voice.

What a loss. What a figure.

[ZUBY: @ZubyMusic]

The world lost a great man today.

I remember seeing Dilbert comic strips as a kid growing up in Saudi Arabia. Little did I know that decades later, I'd get the chance to hang out with its creator and interview him several times.

Scott was always gracious and kind to me. Even approaching death, he remained a fighter and tried to be useful until the end. He didn't give up.

Millions of people around the world have been positively impacted by his work and I'm grateful to be one of them. What a brilliant mind.

Thank you @ScottAdamsSays! May you rest in perfect peace. 🙏🏾

@MatthewPrintz Your obsession with my penis is noted.

[Bev Cross @BevCross1]

My life just changed in a most profound way. After 10 years of being in place for my coffee and news, frenetic chatter and laughter with online friends, jokes and meme swapping, and sometimes just playing computer solitaire or washing dishes to the soothing voice of @ScottAdamsSays in the background, (even my cat loved his voice) I'm suddenly sitting in this room alone, and the only sound I hear is the loud ticking of a dollar store wall clock I bought for this place 20 years ago, when I was broke and starting life over. Although it's cheap and noisy, I kept it because it reminds me of how my life is passing - one second at a time.

Scott is now with the Lord, and I feel like I'm broke and starting over again. What do with this time that belonged to him? Although I had plenty of warning, I was not quite ready to let go of the amazing 'thought wizard' who came into my home each day to teach me how to be a more mindful, reflective person. How to think smarter, not judge so quickly, be of use to others, when to be skeptical and when to just hold and observe. Give it 48 hours. Fog of war. How to spot bullshit, and sometimes just hang out. It wasn't often, but occasionally he would speak my name - directly to me, and it gave me a sense of authenticity in a world of 9 billion where we often feel unseen. He knew he had that effect on people, and he was generous.

I'm writing this now just to get through these minutes and tune out that ticking clock, but I really just want to cry and scream. I am heartbroken. I want to pound a table. And I'm exhausted from being in what seems to be a constant state of loss recovery - even though my brain tells me this is to be expected at my stage in life.

I sound selfish, I know, but I do realize there's an entire community of CWSA Sippers who feel this on a personal level too, who in real time gave a part of their lives to Scott each day, because he devoted all of his life to us. We are from every age, stage, and walk of life, and Scott corralled us together for the common pursuit of being better at whatever we do. I will be leaning heavily on that community, and they are welcome to lean on me.

Scott Adams will be memorialized in books to come, and essays to be written, and those who perhaps never felt his presence will read and come to know the indelible mark he left on the world - much better than I can ever explain here. Scott was a mentor, author, internet dad, sage, truth-seeker, the ultimate persuader, cartoonist, comforter, comedian, and personal friend to millions. And the best gift giver ever. You knew when you got one.

Godspeed, Scott. Look down on us Beloveds at 10AM now and then. Again, it truly was an unparalleled pleasure.

I’ve been following @ScottAdamsSays for a decade.

Started with his wild blog, then his Persuasion Reading List and his livestreams.

He opened my thinking and changed my life.

Thank you Scott. You will be missed. RIP and I hope Jesus accepts your wager.

@AlecLace I'm not a fan of Walz.

But that's our ugly new flag here in MN.

@GQMagazine "Don’t wear [socks]… and your shoes could start to stink."

Put some baking soda between your toes and around the toenails after a shower. No more foot stink, no more shoe stink.

Works in the armpits too. No more chemical deodorant.
