@LasVegasLocally Suspended with pay of course.

A Las Vegas Metro Police officer was arrested by the Nevada State Police for DUI, reckless driving, speeding 41+ mph over the limit, no proof of insurance, and driving an unregistered vehicle... among other things.

@The_Pop_In @fuckyouiquit My mom worked *for a health insurance company* and her policy was mid-tier at best. She died at 67 and logged into her work email even after a tumor on her spine paralyzed her from the waist down.

Cancer is only bad for employers

@G0LD_FINGER @reMARQable_ My mom was obsessed with the beach and used to make us go camping in Ocracoke and I hated it so much, but I also have such fond family memories of those trips.

@reMARQable_ I use to have such a love hate relationship with those summer trips to NC 😭

Do kids still go down south for the summer?

@BleakNeonBlack @JustinRYoung If they're lying and he has known about this since before dropping out of the Presidential race, I think it's important to bring that to light. If not, then it probably didn't even need to be announced to the public.

@speakboylese @JustinRYoung It just seems to me like there are better things to focus on in our governmental bodies than the health of an ex-president.

@JustinRYoung Haven't listened to the latest EP yet, but just based on the summary: I try really hard not to be conspiracy-minded (paranoia is no way to live) but you know what can cause or accelerate cognitive decline? Many cancer treatments. Some call it "chemo brain."

@BleakNeonBlack @JustinRYoung Yet I've personally witnessed cancer that went from "vague symptoms that don't even point to cancer" to death in a matter of weeks, and I'm not a medical professional. That they have lied about his health is the thing that makes me suspicious, not the zero to bone deep aspect.

@speakboylese @JustinRYoung Great point.

@HollyTarry I found Erin's phone and I think you're the person who has been trying to call it?

@DaOGTriple @GoodnightGoldie @notcapnamerica @Jazzieeiswhoiam @AfricanArchives Twitter has taught me more about Black history in the last handful of years than my entire K-12 education as a white kid in Richmond, VA in the 90s. I've also had to block a lot of bigots, deniers, and assholes, and I'm not even the one putting the information out there.

@GoodnightGoldie @speakboylese @notcapnamerica Oh please do lol. I’ve actually learned a lot more black history from my man @Jazzieeiswhoiam, he drop knowledge daily and @AfricanArchives and few others on here I follow whom names I can’t think of

1985 wasn’t that long ago

@GoodnightGoldie @DaOGTriple @notcapnamerica My mom was pregnant with me when this happened, and I am a spring chicken. The fact that it's not taught in classrooms as recent history is shameful.

@DaOGTriple @notcapnamerica That was exactly six days before my birth, and I’m just a baby, so no. Not long ago at all and far too recent for folks to have forgotten about.

@uncanny_eli @Cosmic_Wyrm I've donated to a lot of GfMs for top and/or bottom surgeries 🤷 Sometimes for complete strangers, even.

a thing i have learned in the past few years is that getting expensive transition surgeries doesn't mean you're financially salient. you meet plenty of financially precarious people who have strategised for years and/or exhausted all of their resources.

@Lltzz175 @grenadine @heyMAKWA Space for firefighters who will have to carry everything they need to put out a notoriously difficult to extinguish lithium battery fire, because they can't fit emergency vehicles down there.

@speakboylese @grenadine @heyMAKWA

nobody who has ever read about the behaviour of fire in a tunnel would ever, ever deliberately drive into a tube that could be blocked by a single car

@krassenstein @SmittyScoop I'm curious about the projected cost of transferring all those Treasury employees to DHS, training them to do border patrol work, relocating them. You can't just snap your fingers and redeploy a work force like that. This isn't a video game.

BREAKING: Trump says that he is going to either move 88,000 IRS agents to border patrol duties or demand their resignation. To me it sounds like he really wants this country to go broke. FACTS: - For every $1 spent on enforcement, the IRS typically collects between $4 and $7 in revenue. - In 2021, the IRS employed roughly 80,000 people (not all of whom are enforcement agents) and collected around $4.1 trillion in total revenue. This averages about $51.25 million per employee in total collections.

@grenadine @heyMAKWA I really think it's just a matter of time before someone dies in those tunnels.

@heyMAKWA Even just… when yr in the subway part of the Chicago L, you see little person size wall cut outs so a person working or who is somehow down there has a spot they can use to go to the side when a train comes. I’ve seen a guy in construction clothes duck into those. V basic thing

@GailSimone Julian Clary brought in a Biggles book on Taskmaster as his entry for "the best thing for a grownup that's meant for a child," which resulted in Alex reading off several of the more suggestive titles. Truly an excellent way to learn of their existence.

Folks, this is the funniest thing I have done on twitter, I swear. There was a series of over 100 adventure novels and collections for boys in the UK, featuring a WWI fighter pilot named Biggles. I read one as a kid, and the name never failed to make ten year old me laugh. 1/

@notcapnamerica The Anacostia Community Museum will be open with special MLK Day programming, maybe they can go learn something.

Not the inauguration's been moved indoors. At this late juncture you won't be receiving refunds from the Hampton Inn.

@EllyArrow @JamilahLemieux It's a fundamental misunderstanding of consent if they think you can possibly consent to be put in a position where you will not be able to revoke it.

Therapists having horrific blindspots when it comes to #prostitution and #BDSM is so dangerous. This isn't the first time and likely won't be the last I've heard them recommend that predators go and pay women as though these men'd magically be safe then/"those women can take it".

@jupitergrl_ @notcapnamerica I've used salicylic acid since my tweens because of my acne and hyaluronic because of eczema and now I'm 39 and getting genuinely carded for booze 😆

Yes and salicylic acid as well. My favs!

@atrophicbtrfly @gee_victory Every decade is for this.

your 20s are for trying soup, making new soups, and discussing soup or soup related topics

@pdcolemanjr @VitalVegas I'm always pissed when I see any Tesla parked all over the lines because they are covered in cameras and have auto parking features, so they have no excuse.

@VitalVegas You do know the Tesla automatically parks you into spaces but only backwards? You just press a button and it does the rest. Much easier than trying to go forward into a spot.

Shocker he was one of those assholes who backs into parking spaces.

@888nbi @notcapnamerica I used to volunteer in nursing homes and one of the saddest things was women who had devoted their lives to a man and not cultivated other relationships and then he died and he WAS all they had. Funny thing though, those ladies usually had no problem making new friends at Bingo.

men think they’re all we have😭just cause y’all spend your lives swinging dick instead of being decent humans with emotional capacity, doesn’t mean we do😭
