@cmolanphy I've been delighted by the music accompanying this new Axe ad https://t.co/8Kt2ybTMDG
But it reminds me so strongly of- what? Please help!

Notice the deficit isn't an issue when Republicans are giving out trillions in tax giveaways to their rich Wall Street friends.

But keeping workers and our local communities afloat during a pandemic? Suddenly, they have a problem.

These guys want you to believe that you can just show up at a clinic right now and get a coronavirus test. You can't.

.@PhilipRucker: You appeared to accuse Obama of a crime yesterday. What did he do?

TRUMP: "Obamagate."

RUCKER: What is the crime?

TRUMP: "You know what the crime is. The crime is very obvious to everybody."

@weir_robert He's in 8th and I'll admit it was my first time wondering why he hasn't learned yet. He's had a whole year of "Technology" class.
This convo was distance-learning prompted. He seemed to be experiencing his first case of carpal inflammation 😔

[Behind the Oleander @bingybingyfoo]

Me: I mean you can't type, right? They haven't taught you yet?
14: I can type.
Me: No, like, w the home row, and all?
14: yeah, home row, for sure
Me: what does Qwerty mean?
14:
Me: You don't know how to type

[Behind the Oleander @bingybingyfoo]

@weir_robert That's cool!
I learned in an elective gr9, I remember being annoyed the class was called "Data Processing" but the first semester was mostly learning to type. Looking back, it actually had a lot of vocab (input/output, CRT) and tech history (Dvorak), + so glad I can type actually

[Behind the Oleander @bingybingyfoo]

@weir_robert Lol, obv "touch type" was the term I was reaching for, but I think we settled the question tho

@SharonDanielleB @AngrierWHStaff The worst part? I just d/l mine literally one week ago 😭

A Florida city closed its beaches one week after they reopened because visitors were not practicing social distancing and could have contributed to the spread of the new coronavirus.
