If you ever doubt how magical this world is, one day you will decide to go to a World Cup watch party in Oakland that you found online to root for a country where you spent two years trying to coax English out of the mouths of Cape Verdean teenagers. 1/7

Me since October 3rd:

[tree @treeonchain]

Suddenly, you're 27.

You make your coffee, rush to work, come home around 7, and you're too tired to do anything except eat, scroll on your phone, and pass out.

Then you wake up, and do it all again.

And when Friday comes, maybe you go out, or maybe you're just too tired. Then, out of nowhere, it hits you.

How did everything pass by so quickly?

You don't even feel 27.

You still feel like that 17 year old kid who thought they had all the time in the world.

But somehow, 10 years just disappeared. And you start missing the past. The feeling of being young, excited, and clueless.

But then you realize, one day, you'll miss this, too.

Being 25, being confused, being tired, but still trying.

So maybe the trick is to slow down a bit and actually live this chapter before it also becomes just another memory.

The point is no matter what age you are, you’ll miss these days. Life gets busy sometimes and it’s always a good time to stop and smell the roses.

A hill I’m willing to die on: If I’m ever in the airport long enough for lounge access to be a valuable perk, I’ve done something horribly wrong.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

Children were seen leaving school hand-in-hand with their parents and guardians on Wednesday after a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in south Minneapolis, #Minnesota. As many as 20 people were injured and the shooter died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to sources. The shooting triggered a massive law enforcement response at 54th Street between Harriet and Garfield avenues. Minneapolis police said there is no active threat to the public.
This is a developing story. https://t.co/uoWL8sjev4

Pete Buttigieg did 3 hours (!!!) on the Flagrant podcast. Here he talks about the importance of government funded research.

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

Amazing. In *two* minutes, Pete Buttigieg got Andrew Shulz to see why government research is necessary.

That is why these conversations matter. A lot of the hosts & audience would never hear a message like this one. But when they do, it makes sense.

It is a privilege to yearn after our own memories

I know people are hungry for on-the-ground information of what’s happening in LA. So just to offer you one perspective … 🧵

@MilaLovesJoe We sent 75 fire engines. Your statement about our teams not being allowed into California is false. Our teams arrived yesterday and are working around the clock to help our neighbors.
