Q. Why do mathematicians confuse Halloween and Christmas? A. Because 31 Oct = 25 Dec. Happy Christmas.

Funny. @SenToomey never called for spending caps on the war…only on the health care for veterans sickened by said wars. Interesting priorities. #PassthePactact

It has been one week since the massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. In response, a dark-money group from Missouri launched a "Woke Heat Map" so that fascists can "fight back" against a "woke agenda." Twelve locations are tagged. All of them are schools. 🧵

And it puts us at a huge disadvantage against international businesses
You know what would really help me as a business owner? Universal health care. The money we pay to subsidize employee health care is astronomical and grows every year. I'll happily pay higher taxes to cut out health insurance companies that make $40 billion a year in profit.

This is true as a municipal executive as well. One of the biggest fixed costs in any city budget—i.e., your property tax bill—is health insurance for employees. And just like your insurance premium, it goes up every year. #MedicareForAll=huge property tax cut (among other things)

This was Trump's epic meltdown on 60 Minutes and it was even worse than reported. Trump literally ran away because he didn't like the questions.

George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.

Do you have white teenage sons? Listen up. I've been watching my boys' online behavior & noticed that social media and vloggers are actively laying groundwork in white teens to turn them into alt-right/white supremacists. Here's how:

"Asked how someone could hack the police line for a scam like this..."' that's not how caller ID works. It's totally unauthenticated. anyone can spoof a call from any number they like. @temurdur should talk to the phone carriers, ask them what they're doing about it.

... and one more thing: Apple is opening up their bug bounty to all researchers, more products (including macOS), 50% bonus for pre-release software, and *research fused* devices with debug capabilities (!!!!) Great stuff from Apple and @radian

Everyone is a few tips from being better at Twitter. The First Rule of Tweet Club is: USE SILENCE. Especially against trolls. The best way to stop the spreading of bad ideas and bad accounts is DO NOT REPLY and DO NOT RETWEET. #AdviceForNewTwitterUsers xitter.gq/ifindkarma/status/9681… xitter.gq/nathanchubbard/status/…
Hot Twitter tip from someone who worked there: every time you retweet or quote tweet someone you’re angry with, it *helps* them. It disseminates their B.S. Hell for the ideas you deplore is silence. Have the discipline to give it to them.
