Hey, Remember LiveJournal? That place was fun. #RIPTwitter

For everyone who worked on this site for years: thank you. For everyone whose livelihood is now at risk: I'm sorry. If the last person at Twitter can put up the old Fail Whale page before you leave, I'd appreciate the nostalgia.

@BeauTFC When I first read this I was thinking who makes light rail vehicles that aren't electric these days? Can we go back to horse pulled trolleys?

Me: Cool, the new LRV will be electric and it'll influence people who buy gas guzzlers. General Dynamics: here's a hybrid Abrams.

@_ashawndabney Either any two consenting adults can get married or none can. That's my opinion...

@_ashawndabney I have not gotten COVID. I'm a bit careful but not obsessively so. I wear a mask in crowded enclosed spaces and I get my shots as recommended.

@_ashawndabney Me!

If you are expecting to receive student loan debt relief, you should know that Republicans are now suing the Biden administration to stop you from getting that relief. Only one party is working to help you—your vote matters this midterm election.

How many Super Sea Snails did you get? #Splatfest

i know it’s environmentally friendlier (and more cost efficient) but REALLY don’t like this new valet system where you have to give your phone number to strangers and you hafta text to get your car. (yes. i know this is a bougie complaint .) #NotDesignedByWomen

@LakotaMan1 I would base my support of such a candidate on the issues. I have a hunch that such a candidate would have views and plans that are in line with my own.

If a qualified, experienced Native man or woman ran for president (as a Democrat) — would you support them?

@susbelv @JoshRAgee @MonicaLewinsky Yes you can send and receive texts with a Google Voice number I've been doing it for years. Almost no one knows my real phone number.

@JoshRAgee @MonicaLewinsky Someone said you can't send/receive text messages with a Google number. That's how you request your car from valet.

@danyourdevil3 @alexwagner We already know the appraisals are never really independent. That was a part of the 2008 - 2009 economic meltdown. If sub-prime lenders can influence them, then so can big real estate players

@alexwagner What doesn't make sense to me is don't the banks have the assets independently appraised?

Trump valued Mar A Lago at $739 million — the real value is closer to $75 million. He bought his Jupiter golf course for $5 mill — the next year he valued it at $62 million. A markup of 1,100%. Just wow

@tombricker @neiltyson In the Library of Congress system many religious texts are shelved under "BS" Does it stand for Biblical Studies or that other thing? You decide!

@neiltyson I'm just troubled my library puts religious books in the category of "non-fiction"

The time has come for those of us who write non-fiction to rise up and adopt the word “faction” so that we’re no longer forced to live in the negation of another genre.

@LovewellFundra1 @senior1citizen @zehloani @mmpadellan My comment had nothing to do with whether former presidents were invited to the official funeral. It was only about tradition/protocol.

I noticed that a certain someone who claimed to have a special relationship with Queen Elizabeth II is nowhere to be seen at her funeral.

@senior1citizen @zehloani @mmpadellan I believe that it is tradition if not official protocol for the current President to approve a former President attending a state event in another country. So if the President of Albania were to invite GWB to an official visit next month, Biden would have to approve it.

@zehloani @mmpadellan Totally wrong . Biden does not get to invite anyone to a British state funeral. Why would it have anything to do with him. Give your head a wobble and wise up.

@POTUS Not to bring up Al Gore but he was right about Social Security and Medicare needing a lock box.

You paid for your Social Security. Every single paycheck since your first job. Republican Senators want it and everything else in the federal budget on the chopping block every 5 years.

@mistergone Ouch!

@ChoiceVeronica @briantylercohen Thanks for letting me know clarification was needed.

@alycialb @briantylercohen Thank you for explaining!

The “Save The Children” crowd is awfully quiet today.

@ChoiceVeronica @briantylercohen I commend those who help these refugees. My comment is not about them. It's about those who scream "illegal immigration" who have no will to punish those who employ the undocumented immigrants to exploit them with unfair work practices & no regard for safety.

@alycialb @briantylercohen Let's have a discussion, without insult, without snarkiness: What is wrong with following the values and ideals of loving thy neighbor, sharing and giving others a helping hand? When did treating all humans with dignity and respect become a bad thing?
