WDTY? If you agree, maybe create a video and we can get a grass-roots movement going with Delta and Amex to appease the fanboys, lol. 5/5

I get Amex wants to maintain the exclusivity of Centurion. I think if the "Diamond" card did not come with the Centurion concierge they’d still maintain the exclusivity and differentiation for Centurion. Along with the ego benefits for those who need their ego stroked, lol. 4/5

To my fav CC/points content creator, @AskSebby. I think @AskAmex needs to launch a new CC that fills the gap between the Platinum card and the Centurion card. I’ll refer to it as the @AmericanExpress "Diamond card" for kicks. Here’s why… 1/5

Undoing Roe is awful. Kneecapping environmental regulation is existential. This Supreme Court has just come down on the side of civilizational collapse.

What's the right balance between #kubernetes innovation and cadence of change?
#GKE simplifies this dilemma with new controls to decide on the timing, scope, and type of updates, so you're in control to shape a strategy that works for you! cloud.google.com/blog/products/… @googlecloud

Amerie Jo Garza's father, a med aide, says he found out she was one of the victims when he arrived on the scene and was helping another little girl covered in blood. She told him her best friend had been shot. When he asked her name, she said his daughter's. There aren't words.

@ericberget Truth. But broken families, mental health, masculinity, and bullying issues are not equal in priority to gun access in order to stop gun violence. As he states, no other country in the world has this problem. Maybe it IS the guns, or at least where we should start

AR-15s are designed for one purpose — to kill as many people as possible, as quickly as possible… and that’s exactly what they keep getting used for.
Hand grenades aren’t legal. There really is no reason to have weapons of war on our streets. Ban assault rifles.

Made a donation to @BetoORourke's campaign. Hard to know how else to put my emotions into action. Can't just sit here doing nothing anymore....

Why even be in Congress if you don’t believe in doing your job?
Just quit and let someone who actually gives a damn do it instead of acting like a useless piece of furniture when babies are shot with AR15s that we let teen boys impulse buy before they can legally have a beer.

Pro-tip: Jesus would want you to use your power as a lawmaker to act to stop gun violence in Uvalde instead of quoting Bible versus while taking money from the NRA.

My heart breaks for the city of Uvalde. Pray for our families. “Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.” “Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Matthew 19:14

Anyone else see a common thread enabling the Uvalde shooting and the sex abuse scandle rocking the #SBC?
A: white nationalist evangelical Christian men in leadership.
Atheism, at this moment, is their witness. I hope they wake up.
