Well… the time has come. I increased the font size on my iPhone today. #beenholdingout

Dear @GSMAm4d can you please let us know how to contact who is running the humanitarian innovation challenge? We have been trying to reach the shared email for weeks to no avail. This has resulted in our proposal been ruled ineligible which is a disappointment.

Barriers to opportunity in Chicago are not unlike the barriers for many HS graduates and adult learners throughout Illinois and America. Thank you, @senduckworth and @senatordurbin, for meeting with Hope Scholars and @JaniceJackson to discuss #HopeChicago’s work and progress.

@tedgonder I love this idea!!! I will look into this. Such a great gift.

My wife gifted me a pro podcast session with my mom. For 2 hours, I got to ask her questions about her life, our ancestry, lessons learned, her fondest memories, and what she wishes for her grandchildren and their children. This will be kept in our family for generations.

@MeasureDoc You can do it!

Inbox Zero achieved! I’m sure it will last for 5… 4… 3… 2… 1. I know you were wondering if this incredible feat would happen again @MeasureDoc . Apologies in advance for all the emails I sent to the team while I was clearing out! 😬

Important perspective from @janicejackson. Gutting school choice in Chicago would be terrible for Black, Brown students #schoolchoice #education chicago.suntimes.com/2023/12/18/240…

@arneduncan @ChicagoCred Yes!!! Congratulations, Raahsaan!

When your ⁦@ChicagoCred⁩ teammate graduates, nothing can make you happier. When you live your values & embody tenacity, that example is the most powerful form of leadership! Congratulations Raahsaan Brown on being the first in your family to graduate from college!

Biden's address was perhaps the most powerful statement of support for Israel by a sitting U.S. president since Harry Truman recognized the Jewish state in 1948. As American Jews often say, Biden spoke from his "kishkes". My story on @axios axios.com/2023/10/11/bid…

This is a great reminder. Thank you @sarahkpeck

@HeidiStevens13 Enjoy!!! You have worked hard for this!

It’s race day. Good morning, Chicago ☀️

@MeasureDoc @lara_bcw @Prashan35942710 @marathonbill @KittyHawkCrypt1 @hunting_artemis @Asma16601852 @pattjern @OtisBauer7 @MeeGGame @Kenzo_ether David - you’re going to need to explain to me if this is something I need to pay attention to :)

@PCunningham57 @ChicagoCred Raasaahn is the best! I am so glad he is part of this experience!

@micheome I’m doing it too! :)

Update: it was a great episode!!

Is it weird to cheer about a crossover between two of your fave podcast hosts? I have googled this mashup before to see if @tferriss & @shaneparrish had interviewed one another - now it's happening! Can't wait to dig in.#alwaysbelearning @farnamstreet podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/695…

@TheBZchannel @tferriss @shaneparrish @farnamstreet @ThisIsSethsBlog I should go back to that one!

@jhashof @tferriss @shaneparrish @farnamstreet Never!! I get so excited when Tim interviews my favs (@ThisIsSethsBlog interview is a top 5 of all time)

@arneduncan @RevJohnC

Imagine if that went into preK…
