Hey @elonmusk, what we might pay for in a #BlueCheckMark is the ability to control the settings on Twitter's algorithm. Don't assume outrage is the best way to capture our attention. & please don't send it to my phone. Let the users drive and shape our own information ecosystem.

The Banana App originated from @BeGoodProject, and it is awesome! We helped them find skilled volunteers to bring their vision to reality.

@techlozenge There is an app available to stop imperfect food being put into the garbage & instead feeding those who go hungry. The #BananaApp is explained by its originator, @DemocracyLab, thebegoodproject.org. You can find the BananaApp in both the Google play & apple app stores.
