@SwytchBike Over two months ago, a Swytch customer service rep told me he had ordered a replacement sensor and that it would take 2-4 weeks to arrive. It never did. My multiple followups through regular customer service channels have been ignored. Request #346512

I will never, ever understand the impulse to interview celebrities about things they have no particular expertise in, especially ones in the middle of a mental health crisis.

@a_ronn Her favorite episode is The Recruiter

@garethstack If Murakami can devote page after page to a guy just sitting at the bottom of a well that's gone dry, I think it's possible.

I really hope those predicting the demise of Twitter are right. While parts of it are great, overall this platform has been damaging to our discourse and psyches.

Trying to come up with a succinct term for the kind of skepticism mixed with deep empathy I'm trying to encourage with @loveandradio. Skeptical Empathy? Empathic Detachment? Compassionate Conservatism (JK)?

It's been a dream my whole life to be invited onto a talk show. Thank you @hackcartoonist for making dreams come alive.

@hackcartoonist Let’s keep the mystery alive

Being an American living in Ireland with a phone set in Brazilian Portuguese and a daughter in Irish language school has made the ads I'm served a complete and glorious mess.

@lashantefelise Literally anywhere else. Duo Lingo is okay as a supplement but I don't think anyone has ever actually learned a language with just it. I had a good experience with Pimsleur
