I'm a software engineer who works in telecom. I have ASD and appreciate when people understand what that means before making fun of me. Thanks. /gen

@Snailses @NotJosephGarcia Hi, Autistic engineer here. To simplify, some older wind turbines used a combustion engine to get it moving if there is enough wind to keep it moving but not enough wind to start it moving. New tech has made these obsolete. What you are seeing here is propaganda.

@skepticalprune @kmandgmathome @stkirsch Ikr? It would be like paying them in Googles, Apples and Microsofts.

@robertbowles78 @historyinmemes Think about it though. They are social animals. They live in packs and take care of each other. If they are hungry enough, I agree, they will likely eat whatever they can get a hold of but the "mother instinct" is very strong. Tiger and baby deer?

@JamieJ226 Why do you assume I'm trolling? I have a life. I'm a successful software engineer. I have ASD and take things literally. I also love animals. I really don't understand where you are getting that idea from. /gen

@wedman_wanda @614clinton Me? Because I have ASD and take things literally? Because I love animals? I dont understand why people can't be nicer. I'm not sure who that comment was directed toward, but mine and OP's are the only accounts listed in the reply. We are all in this together. /gen

@MargoThatcher3 @614clinton Still seems cruel to me. Hard doesn't mean impossible. Through some insensitive comments, I've learned a little about this account and these stories. Thank you for at least not directing them at me. /gen

@CBKimbrell @FlyGirl33684011 @614clinton I have ASD. I tend to take things literally. /gen
I doubt you were actually making fun of me though. /s

@glenn52749526 @614clinton Like I said. If you can't make time for or afford a pet, why get one in the first place? While I agree with you re the government, I would go a step further and point out governments have always been corrupt. Govt = Power = corruption, but that's a different discussion.

@YK54607754 @MessiEra10_ @TravisAllen02 I'm no fan of Trump or his supporters, but can we please stop using illness, mental or otherwise, as an insult? It just perpetuates stigmatization. Thank you, and have a wonderful day. /gen

@robertbowles78 @historyinmemes I've seen a cat raise squirrels, birds and dogs. A dog adopt a litter of kittens. I've read about a sheep adopting an elephant. A tiger adopting a pig. Gorilla adopting a kitten. And more. Usually animals who live in social groups, and often by already nursing mothers.

@614clinton I suspect you are leaving out the real reason for the stop. "Minor traffic violation" sounds like a lie. Why not just say the actual violation? I could be wrong, but it appears to me you are being intentionally vague about the most important piece of information. Prob. Cause

@RealJamesWoods Why am I suddenly seeing tweets from this dork? I blocked him quite a while ago. Hmm. Maybe he's paying Twitter to undo blocks? Sad.

[asterisk @asterisknine]

@alx Why are his bodyguards sleeping? Shouldn't that be the real question?

@ColonelMark4 @bennyjohnson @Doembon @RepMTG Every single politician is crooked af. "Never trust a politician." Is a cliche for a reason.

@Rich_Gally_ @Evie_50 @OccupyDemocrats Or he really did commit the crimes and we are a nation where no one is above the law. “Cue the whatabout .. response”

BREAKING: Democratic Sen. John Fetterman delivers a star-making takedown of Republican policies and corporate greed during a hearing with a Silicon Valley Bank executive.

"Republicans want to give a work requirement for SNAP. A hungry family has to have these kinds of penalties," said Fetterman.

SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Republicans want to make it harder to access the life-saving program as part of their ongoing war on the poor.

"Shouldn't you have a working requirement after we bail out your bank with billions?" Fetterman asked the exec.

He's right. It's absurd to target the poor and unprivileged while greedy bankers are wrecking businesses, tanking the economy, and then floating to safety on their golden parachutes!

Retweet if you think that Fetterman is absolutely right!

@JKernerOT @elonmusk I could be wrong(I'm not) the first amendment only applies to government censorship.
