@VerizonSupport Hi Sandy. It’s not so much “wanting a lower bill” as it is being upset at a price increase of $600/yr for the same service. I just spent an hour chatting with a rep from the website and it felt like we were going in circles.

@Verizon Just found out you're charging me $50/mo to keep the same #fios service. I've been a customer for 10 years, but it looks like this is the end.

@docbaty I used it in a song lyric once and it definitely gave people pause. But, I mean, they seemed to understand the line.

This is Tennesse House Speaker Cameron Sexton- @CSexton25. In 2019 he declined to expel a rep who was accused of, and later admitted to, sexually abusing 3 underage girls

Tonight he voted to expel 3 democratic reps for protesting against kids getting shot in their own classrooms

@HesterBlum @drunkenbee Sustainability, I assume, since our culture dies without them?

@aahoogendoorn Amazing. They still have "Lean UX" in there.

@werty Outlook has a “Private” setting for events. If it’s marked private, seems reasonable to assume it’s��well, private. But otherwise, I’d expect not. (Though I’d never put anything on my work calendar that was truly personal. I’m sure employers have the right to look at anything.)

John Steinbeck is trending so now's as good a time as any to talk about Sanora Babb... 1/11

@SecretHQTweets I assume one of the stories is early prep for this year’s Joker Halloween costume?

@thomaschattwill I'm torn between being puzzled by his certainty that beauty has objective rules and saddened by how much beauty he is missing. How impoverished his world must be where no flower can beautiful because of its evolutionary function and no smile due to its purpose conveying emotion.

@fpatrick Perhaps ad inventory is so low these days that they lack the diversity to target properly.

@MollyJongFast So that's why his Secret Service codename is Norma Desmond!

@RottenInDenmark Worse still, it's a direct product of the algorithm the company itself controls. It gives the illusion of measuring engagement, while really measuring nothing.

@inkblurt That is so often the case with many separatist movements. There's a genuine ideological blindness to the source of the forces being rebelled against. I enjoyed watching the series — and tried to keep the schadenfreude in check — but yeah, you see what's coming very quickly.

@fpatrick My experiences are just as anecdotal, but I see a difference in the use of slurs and prominence of anti-semitic and racist language.

@Rangutang @scalzi I found myself wondering if they might be furthering a setup for something coming — perhaps as part of an Armor Wars arc. If not, you’re right, it certainly added nothing to WF.

@AMCHelps @AMCTheatres Just left AMC East Hanover, NJ. The trailers were so loud I couldn't stay in the theater. Peak audio levels exceeded 100dB. Average was 80. Multiple attendees complained but we were told by staff that they are powerless to change the volume of trailers.

@HRecruit I suspect they're (perhaps unconsciously) telling you that if understanding the meaning of the question is the sort of thing you worry about, this isn't the place for you.
