Keep your eyes on the prize folks. It's always about "victory conditions". Tactics and operations are just a means to an end. If you don't have a clear strategic goal in mind you're very unlikely to achieve it. And that's happened to us in multiple conflicts since the end of WW2.

@alamodrafthouse is there a timeline for fixing the website and app? I've been unable to access my account for almost a week now

@jasminericegirl Love the targeted ads for this

in case anyone was curious how much X pays creators, I usually make about $50 a month for ~25M impressions :)

@bob_gunton @Noirchick1 Not pre code but one of my favorite movies ever! Hayes Code started around 1932-3 whereas Arsenic and Old Lace came out 1945ish (held back for a year or so). Enjoy the rewatch! Not hard to find her. She’s the romantic lead for Cary Grant and in his first scene

@Noirchick1 'ARSENIC' etc. is one of my favorite comedies from Pre-Code. I don't actually remember Ms Lane from the film -- but I'm sure as heck gonna go back and find her!

The lovely languid Priscilla Lane, best known for two wonderful 1940s films - Hitchcock's " Saboteur" and Capra's "Arsenic and Old Lace"....

@jasminericegirl But also, it’s really hard to remember this, in the throes of a million intense thoughts, ADHD is your super power. All the super heroes have to grapple with their abilities. But it’s really advantageous when you can learn to harness it instead of just fighting it. Never ends tho

like idk i can have ADHD and also support gun control they're not mutually exclusive 😭😭😭😭

"you're not allowed to talk about things you're experiencing in your life because bad things are happening in the world" is a hell of a take

@lg Rockefeller was the oil guy. Owned 90-95% of the oil industry. Vertically too. And Hearst was the newspaper/media guy. Only so many tycoons lol

@jzucker and i guess everyone was the oil guy

was JPMorgan the oil guy or the train guy

@lg Carnegie was the steel guy and Huntington was the train guy (at least on the west coast)

@lg He funded the train guys and the steel guys

@cozmo83 @MondoNews I'm guessing it's a bug and it's really sold out

@MondoNews why am I getting "shipping not available for this address" for the Batman Drop today? I've had too many Mondo items to count shipped to this address

@ALEXF0RREST John Wayne in The Searchers is the ultimate answer to this question

what is a good male performance that is racist

@katienotopoulos @Dani_Di_Placido I love this. You could say the same thing about movies with sound or (gasp) rock n roll!

I’m dying to know for who this sentence was written. Who said “ah, yes ok, interesting…. Video games you say…. Played by adults?”

@staringispolite Hahaha for sure

@jzucker LOL I wasn’t born in 1990, that’s just where the math ends up right now

gm 1990 babies we’re currently further from 9/11 than your birthday was from the moon landing

@lukesophinos Carvana is a success?

Casper innovated by selling a product online that was previously only bought in stores. We've seen many companies do this successfully over the past decade: Shoes -> Zappos Cars -> Carvana But Casper just couldn't figure out how to make the economics work.

A high flying mattress company turned down a $1B acquisition. 2 years later it lost 75% of it's value and sold to private equity. The rise & fall of Casper Mattress 👇

@BamasLadyJ @MattGertz @gtconway3d The data about his jet is not real time. You just spread misinformation. Congrats!

Some Twitter thoughts: 1. Elon Musk owns the company and has the right to do what he wants with it (within the law). If he wants to come up with flimsy pretexts to suspend critics, he can do that. There's not much point to examining the rationale he uses to backfill his whims.

@AlfredoAndere They sent people to the moon on mandated 40 hour work weeks. That moved science forward far more than you ever will

@staringispolite There’s a 99 pi for that part 99percentinvisible.org/episode/ten-th…

(It’s an interesting problem too! And doesn’t fall along traditional argumentative ‘sides’) We’ve never engineered anything to last 10,000’s of years. Even if it works, how do we prevent our descendants from f’ing it up when they may not even understand our language?

truly crazy-making to see more and more people wrote long threads wondering why nuclear power isn’t more popular and never mention the spent fuel storage problem

@MIAuniverse Dolly Parton did pay. And we’re all benefitting from it

If Alex jones pays for lying shouldn’t every celebrity pushing vaccines pay too ?

@qwrrty @MuseZack @Pythagasaurus3 Watch a Kubrick film. Or PTA. Those tracking shots (in either). Or some of Welles’s work. Hitchcock felt the movie was perfect when the script was finished and filming ruined it.

A bad thing that often happens in Hollywood is that a director, showrunner, or entire company will have a chaotic, dysfunctional production that somehow results in a good finished product...& then draw the conclusion that the dysfunction was somehow responsible for the goodness.
