@Weezer Last night your base drum was so loud that all of Capital One Arena shook! The low frequency actually negated the noise cancellation ability of my AirPods. Except for the probably permanent hearing loss, it was a great show! Check @GWR to see if you broke a record!😂😭🙉

@wusa9 Why are you showing Rodeo instead stead of the Browns-Ravens game as scheduled? I can’t even get the game now on Sunday Ticket because YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE SHOWING IT LOCALLY!

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

Thanks @Wolftrap for fixing that so quickly!

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

@Wolftrap I know it’s advertised as a “Quiet Celebration with Paul Simon” but it sure would be nice if the speakers on the lawn worked

@OpenTable Your app is giving the wrong time zone for dinner reservations I made for an upcoming vacation and is messing up my calendar.

@grantpaulsen It's even worse if, in addition to living in the DMV and being a Nats fan, you're also a lifelong Cleveland fan. Gonna be a long series if he keeps that up

like Argentina, Venezuela, or Russia.

This alone is excellent reason to not entrust this man with the Presidency again.

Trump wants to abandon a century’s worth of economic progress and consensus and allow future presidents to wrest control of interest rates from an independent Federal Reserve Bank.

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

The USA has been the most successful economy in the history of the world by minimizing the influence of political whims and expediency from monetary policy decisions. Eliminating the Fed’s independence is a sure way to turn us into an economic basket-case

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

@ThirdWayMattB The opposition responses are even worse

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

@com_parking your card machines didn’t work correctly this morning. So why are you charging me a 99 cent “service fee” in order to pay the charge online? That’s not right.

If Peter Angelos had, instead of buying the Orioles in 1993, invested his $173 million in the S&P 500, he would have had $3.2 BILLION today, instead of the $1.7 billion price at which he’s selling the team today.

We ALL would have been better off! 😜

@ultimateguitar this is what I see when I try to print

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

@ultimateguitar Who do I talk to about technical support with your website? I have a consistent error occur when I try to print Pro Tab chord sheets.

@FreddieandHD You guys are so cute with your MapQuest. I remember ordering TripTiks from AAA. And real folding maps.🙄

@Browns decision to trade @josh_dobbs1 after training camp is looking pretty bad right now

Hamas promises more massacres in Arabic while asking for a humanitarian reprieve in English. https://t.co/jzK0YeNtBI via @WSJopinion

[Stephan @akaTheLev]

CNN tonight reported on an Arab dentist in Miami who was fired from his job after video showed him tearing down fliers of Hamas’s hostages. He claims that he cannot be antisemitic since Arabs are also Semites. Actually, besides having faulty logic, he’s really just an asshole.

3 teams vying for 2 spots in the East. Yet somehow the geniuses at ⁦@espn⁩ give the teams the following chances: Florida 82%, NYI 57%, Pittsburgh 57%. Math is hard.🤣 https://t.co/yGDHOTDvu5

Retirement's been good to me so I changed my Twitter handle
