@SpencerGuard Hey John! Great to hear from you! What date did you send the email? I can't seem to find it. (Probably my fault - Conde Nast took away our Outlook and made us use web email, which I'm not very good at it yet.)

@laurensmiley Hi Lauren! I'm an editor at Wired. I just read your feature in our January issue - what a lovely story. So beautifully written! - Lee

#YuliGurriel Stop insulting us w/ mealymouth non-apologies and lies re your intent. You meant to demean an opponent w/ a #racist caricature.

[Brian Oh @brian_oh1]

@MLB if you let #YuliGurriel keep playing, it will send a STRONG message that racism is tolerated in the MLB. Absolutely reprehensible.

[Lee Simmons @actual_self]

@el_yuly10 @nerdyasians Totally agree with you.

[Lee Simmons @actual_self]

Baseball's response to Yuli Gurriel @el_yuly10 is shameful. Houston needs to bench him during #WorldSeries2017 or be complicit in RACISM.

@Noahpinion Hm. I don't find it addictive at all. I have to force myself to open it. Wonder why it's different for different people.

@bchapsports You are so right! I'm sick of seeing games lost by over-managing. Let the players play!

[Lee Simmons @actual_self]

Stunning, masterful, poetic story by @_alex_mar. Like all great tales, it's really about what it means to be human. https://t.co/7dvV3vusyl

Cubs-Nats Game 5 - Interesting take: Instant replay (maybe) got it technically right -- but is that good for ball? https://t.co/RPAocvq2DX

Gosha mighty. Finally, one sane article re Hefner and Playboy: "Feminism, Not Hugh Hefner, Liberated Sex" by @KathaPollitt in @thenation.

@roughtype @jonathonkeats Hey Jonathon - nice note from Nicholas Carr on your Roadable Synapse project.

[Lee Simmons @actual_self]

@roughtype Hi Nicholas! I thought about Glass Cage when I wrote this - thought you might enjoy it. - Lee/Wired https://t.co/Dhmtipsago

Autonomous cars will turn drivers into passengers ... Is there a metaphor there? Have we thought this through? https://t.co/Dhmtipsago

[Lee Simmons @actual_self]

I beg to differ. My latest story for Wired: https://t.co/Dhmtipsago
