@briancollins1 Change is both constant and dynamic. Changes in one area trigger changes in others. It’s how then becomes now. And now becomes next.

I just saw an ad agency “strategist” present their “proven system” for brand building. Seriously? There is no proven system. You want generic insight, open a fucking fortune cookie. Clients change. Context changes. Talent changes. Economics change. Customers change. Wake up.

@creativesconvos @profgalloway When in (fast food) Chicago…it’s a hot dog with mustard and relish, no ketchup. What were you thinking?

@profgalloway Welcome, Scott. On an unrelated note, corporations have bought the government and are destroying the world. Please support the Left until we rein in the excesses of capitalism. Then, you can go back to celebrating entrepreneurialism. Oh, and let's grab coffee sometime. - Carlos

When in Rome #CHI

Since SCOTUS is going to overturn #RoeVWade I think this one from George Carlin is appropriate. “They’re anti-women”

Twitter by gender: statista.com/statistics/678…. By age: statista.com/statistics/283…. I couldn’t find recent stats on a breakdown by race or LGBTQ / Cys. If this is a “public square,” it a skewed one. @profgalloway @karaswisher

Friends, Musk/Twitter headlines are all variants of ‘what will Elon do?’ It’s a signal of how lost we are. We obsess over one man and his whims because we don’t yet have the democratic rule of law needed to govern our information spaces. Without law power is dangerous.🧵[1/8]

Air raid sirens went off in the middle of the performance! The orchestra finished the piece and went into the bunker…then finished the online concert. Of course we brought some treats for everyone…. #ChefsForUkraine @WCKitchen @YoYo_Ma

Yes, Pi Day! Let’s hear it for circles!

@ColdwaterCreek -Third order in a row has a been mishandled. Customer Service in Philippines has been wonderful. BUT I need someone in the US to make sure a package that has already been picked is shipped out TODAY by noon, for overnight. It should have arrived today. Help, pls

@profgalloway Round-ish. Technically, it’s an oblate spheroid: earthhow.com/shape-of-the-e…

1/6 Americans aren't sure the Earth is round #chartoftheweek

@briancollins1 the chicago river. really.

“Individuals higher in nature connectedness tend to be more conscientious, extraverted, agreeable, and open … nature connectedness has also been correlated with emotional and psychological well-being.” But we live in a world where nature is leaving us. theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

Not a complete surprise, but Wow…

@phylogenomics I love your birdie pictures!

OK today was a bit much - ~ 7 hours of Zoom calls. I did most of them in my backyard & had my camera nearby but almost no time to even try to take bird pics. But I had a few mini breaks and did get two nice warbler pics ... yellow rumped warbler and black throated gray warbler

@PRCristyJ Will the CM event with Alec Bradford be streamed online? (Zoom, YouTube live, etc) Looks really interesting. Thanks!

@janschakowsky There is another wiggle to the Covid story: It is actually possible to get Covid and the flu at the same time, and this is shaping up to be a nastier flu season than last year. More reason to mask up! theatlantic.com/health/archive…

In this week's Plans & Pans, I discuss my COVID-19 diagnosis, and review some of our accomplishments from this year. If you aren't getting my email updates, make sure you sign-up at schakowsky.house.gov/enewsletter #YearinReview #2021

@billmccool If you have only had deep dish, you have only scratched the surface of pizza options in Chicago…

@TrackerNews I have, and it is a true thing of beauty! this will be sacrilege to those from the city, but the best deep dish I've ever had was in LA.

On the pizza scale, a New Jersey 6 is a Massachusetts 10.

Actually, no, it doesn’t. I just tried again. Perhaps it’s a common problem, but I haven’t run into it with a jar of cream before. An air bubble should rise to the top, so perhaps this was packed on its side. For 2 days it’s been right side up. Nothing has changed.

@Beekman1802Boys LOVE your products. But…I was told by your team that body cream settles with air pockets on the side of the jar, so I am guessing this is not unusual. It is not a good look. Perhaps warn customers with a note on the jar? Or maybe switch to an opaque jar?
