A town that cuts library funding by just 1% loses 10% of childhood reading hours the next year.
84% of parents say libraries are the only safe study space for their kids.
If we don’t protect our libraries now, we’ll pay for the lost potential later.
Guess I shouldn’t have used my @Delta global upgrade because… I guess I’m not ticketed, not making it to LA today, and on standby for this one day meeting on the other coast 🙃
That awkward moment when you’re a Diamond Medallion, you message @Delta and get a “nothing to worry about”…then get to the gate only to be yelled at by the agent…
I’m such a peaceful person so I wasn’t prepared for all that. Guess I should have been worried 🙃
@TapRmBeer you might need someone to fix the ID scanning section of your app...especially if you’re delivering alcohol... My driver has been here for 15 mins and is on the phone with support because he can’t give me the drinks until the app can read the ID 🙃
On Oct 30th, Lil Wayne endorsed Donald Trump, much to chagrin of much of the hip hop community...
Fast forward, his line
“I still got the vision like a line between two dots”
seems prophetic...
I guess Weezy F. Baby and the “F” is for “Free” or “Finesse”

“White Americans aren’t afraid of the cops. White Americans are never afraid of the cops, even when they’re committing an insurrection,” @JoyAnnReid says about the Trump supporters rioting the US Capitol.
Just finished the intro to @TimothyDSnyder’s “Our Malady” and I can already tell this book is going to be impossible to put down. And so, my day takes a pause until the last word is devoured...
As a @Nike supporter and shareholder who happens to be a technologist...I’m concerned. I’m questioning the strength of their core competency...their warehouse logistics and ERP tech stack. Let me know if y’all need help fixing that (serious statement)
Brand loyalty is so complex. It comes from a belief that a brand is invested in you, as much as you are invested in them. Yet when @Nike’s warehouse had a logistical failure with my order, we’re at an impasse. I’ll guess I’ll get some of my stuff, but not all. #Welp
Life’s Subtle Irony: Attempting to take an @awscloud certification exam which covers high availability architectures....on the @PearsonVUE platform which is currently unavailable 🙃
@nic_ollis @PearsonVUE Any luck on a resolution? Because I’m still waiting for @PearsonVUE to pull it together so I can do this early morning pre work day @awscloud cert ...
In the same boat....guess I won’t be taking the @awscloud exam this morning since @PearsonVUE thought it was a good time to be non-functional #ButAtLeastImNotAlone
Do you think this is a college campus kick off event? Throw some t-shirts and we’re all happy? If you want to really show you care...I want to see 2.5% of the gross profits for FY2020 (~450M) go to developing black neighborhoods...you made $18.090B #BoycottStarbucks
Black Lives Matter. We continue to listen to our partners and communities and their desire to stand for justice together. The Starbucks Black Partner Network co-designed t-shirts with this graphic that will soon be sent to 250,000+ store partners.
