Version 1 (significant data cleanup needed and I need to make Tableau Public work with ZIP codes and Canadian postal codes at the same time) is finally here (yes, because of the Twitter exodus): https://t.co/LlNMNhmtUe

Help me make this linguistic heatmap by filling out and sharing this three question (one is optional) anonymous survey.

@uhaul I'd like to encourage not renting to #nazi groups. These ones used one of your trucks to transport a group waiving swastika flags and yelling "white power" in Concord #newhampshire today.

@SketchesbyBoze Just re-read The Boxcar Children (I'm costuming the play version) and it was lovely

@ianmiles Underpaid female athletes who are likely to be harassed at work? Yup, I do hate that

16/ When you hear, "the CDC's Epidemic Intelligence Service class was cancelled and the officers fired" I hope this gives you a sense of what has been lost.

Not just the outbreaks that can't be investigated, the surge capacity gone, but our future public health leadership lost

@karlykingsley Based on a few community social media groups complaining about their property taxes and how much the school budget is, with the proposal being "families with disabled children should just send them to private school", I think some people are in favor of not enforcing these

[Heather Zons @HeatherZWeather]

Not sure if the general public realizes how much of the content we use here at @weatherchannel is coming straight from @NWS and @NOAA services.

WE NEED THEM in order to continue communicating weather dangers for the entire country.

I miss the days when very rich people used their money to fund libraries, public art and philanthropic endeavors rather than launching slow-motion coups against the federal government.

@QueenMab87 They did this when I worked at a coffee place. We used to grab the very Christian employee and say we thought they'd prefer her

[Will Stancil @whstancil]

Guys when Chris Rufo and Trump say "We're destroying DEI, we're salting the earth underneath it" and they're repealing regulations that reach back to 1965, they're not talking about corporate diversity trainings.

They are talking about civil rights

@RepOgles What if we elect Grover Cleveland instead? He may be dead, but he also served two non-consecutive terms.

@Olympian_137 @USA_Polling It's actually really hard to immigrate

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

@kelseybogan I would pick Friendship Bracelets for any of the conferences I coordinate

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

@ryanscottborman @jeremotographs Incarcerated fire crews are actually rather picky with the people allowed on. The people can only have a certain amount of time left on their sentences and can't have committed certain crimes (the specifics vary state to state)

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

@kelseybogan I'm legitimately reconsidering applying for a grant because you have to go to ALA if you get it and it's so much 😭

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

@2140btc @mossadgynist There have been PMs who spoke French poorly, but they generally improve overtime. Parliament has a live interpretation feed, so certainly not all members speak both official languages. Not speaking both languages at least decently starts your party at a 100 seat disadvantage.

@Righteous288712 @QueenMab87 My eighth grade English teacher taught Romeo and Juliet by periodically having us act it out. It was definitely fun

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

#librarytwitter, when making the switch from a library serving a high poverty area to a very low poverty area, how did you adjust your mindset on what you do? Please note both areas are rural with similar population sizes.

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

@CNviolations I've largely lived in places that don't fluoridate the water, and gosh would I prefer that they did.

[Nicole Gauvreau @nlgauvreau]

@smoIive @hoodnymph It depends on the library. That's the case where I work now (we also take shelter letters and have waived requirements for people living in cars/campgrounds), but I've also worked places where you need a card to log in to the computer, print, etc.

@Simply_Rain_S @clairebearian I also have huge texture issues with yogurt and it's the one that's worked for me
