What even is Twitter?

The solution to homelessness is not displacing the unhoused. These are neighbors, they are human beings. @MitchOFarrell needs to #stopthesweep.

JUST IN: Pres. Biden: “All adult Americans will be eligible to get a vaccine no later than May 1.” https://t.co/9YV4cju4J4

It must be nice that Piers Morgan gets to leave a situation when he feels uncomfortable but criticizes a black woman when she does the same. Qwhite interesting.

(Note: People are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after they've gotten the second shot of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or two weeks after receiving the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine.)

Don’t beat yourself up for not being there yet. Pat yourself on the back because you’re on your way. 🙏

Reporter: What inspired you to organize this Valentine's Day art installation at the White House?

First Lady Dr. Jill Biden: "I just wanted some joy ... With the pandemic, just everybody's feeling a little down. So, it's just a little joy. A little hope. That's all."

Fun fact: If your company can afford a $5 million 30 second Super Bowl ad, they can afford to raise your wage.

The footage coming out of Florida of the clubbing and partying for the super bowl is MIND BLOWING! I’ll continue to double-mask, not see my family and friends, and never work in my chosen profession again because of people like that.

What a slap in the face. #SuperBowlLV

[Addisu Demissie @ASDem]

Tom Brady is 43. Serena and Federer are 39. LeBron is 36. Time for us to adjust our concept of what an athletic prime can be. They are special talents obviously but I think developments in nutrition/body science/etc. are going to lead to longer, better careers.

I’m so excited to watch #AdamLambertLiveAtRoxy tonight!! I keep hearing such great things!

A daily reminder that broadway actors are not the only theatrically based actors out of work

[Supervisor Kathryn Barger @kathrynbarger]

This week, every 20 minutes someone in L.A. County is dying from COVID-19.

Across America, we are losing more than 3,000 people a day.

We need to stay home as much as possible.
