@octal A shinkansen WAITED for our incoming train, delayed for 7 minutes by a snow storm. Panic scene. About 15 uniformed JR personnel were out on the platform yelling at us to hurry. Old ladies were trying to run, hauling heavy suitcases. Don't keep the shinkansen waiting!

@LorenaSGonzalez @ninaschau @Teamsters Just leave people alone. Is that concept too difficult for you to understand? Or are you so beholden to corrupt unions, you simply have to do whatever they want.

@ninaschau @Teamsters Please be more specific. What creative job was changed? Misclassification laws were established long before AB5… and many in the arts industry simply ignored them. We have tried to add clarity, specificity & injected money into the arts. What exactly are you referring to?

The fact that trucking companies will have to abide by basic labor laws in CA takes us one step closer to rebuilding the middle class that was almost deregulated out of existence. Proud of my @Teamsters union, #defendingDynamex hasn’t been easy… but nothing good ever is. #AB5

@rickygervais I don't think you understand what it feels like to be offended. It's literally like being stabbed.

@octal When I lived in FL and saw the aftermath to a hurricane (6 days of no power) I was amazed that almost no gas stations had generators for backup. In a state where hurricanes can be guaranteed to occur.

@octal When it happens here I either get out the generator or move the food into the trunk of the car. (A cardboard box would be vulnerable to hungry critters.)

With social platform @parler_app slated to be shut down later tonight, @ADL’s Center on Extremism finds extremists are using the service's final hours to spread hate, promote conspiracy theories, make violent threats and issue calls to arms. Details here: adl.org/blog/parler-us…

@Mr_Trout Why "frighteningly" lifelike sex doll? Why are you so afraid of the future? And why didn't you have sex with her?

@EdwardorEddie I'm just trying to be realistic. I did not mean to hurt feelings. Everyone has a list of laws they would like to change.

@EdwardorEddie There are thousands, possibly millions of laws I don't like. Why is your particular complaint special?
