I accidentally booked a hotel room on @priceline@bookingcom@getaroomcom. They won't let me change my reservation despite the @IHGCorporate hotel's desire to do the change. Avoid 3rd party booking sites ALWAYS.
Twitter is pushing conservative content to me in its daily marketing emails of notifications. The emails highlight fringe conservatives. I don't follow any of these people in my feed. So, why is Twitter pushing them to me? It's concerning. Signing off for another 6 months.

One of the best commentaries about what “Zan, Zendegi, Azadi,” [Woman, Life, Liberty] mean, by @AliVelshi. He ends the segment with this message to the Iranian women: “You are not voiceless; we hear you, we see you.” A must watch!
