What better way to celebrate @bobsaget’s life than for both Facebook and Instagram to follow TikTok in ditching the social graph to pursue what's essentially now three platforms engineered to serve “America’s Funniest Home Videos.”

Now that all these billionaires have had a good view of the earth, could they shift their play money to planet repair? Our oceans are boiling.

In a week that has featured the worst winter weather conditions seen locally in decades (if not on record), with heavy snow and ice, one of the worst aspects of the last week has been the extreme cold. Here is a depiction of the longevity of sub-freezing temperatures seen.

If you're ever wondering if bimonthly means twice per month or every two months, the answer is: either. The longer answer is, we broke the dictionary. tinyurl.com/1mz4qrj9

There have been times, when I’m in a total haze, that I’ve sat at an intersection waiting for a stop sign to turn green. #truestory

When predictive text evolves to suggested thought (as is happening now via Google and GT-3), AI will start creating for us. And, the "tale" will wag the dog. We'll all just have to become less predictable.

@profgalloway @karaswisher The other reason Big Tech will get into Education, besides pressure for top line growth, is they need and rely on a well educated young workforce to compete globally. And amidst COVID-19 rejiggering we’re about to experience a gap.

Finding the @benandjerrys #chubbyhubby flavor in a common grocery store freezer is a bit like finding the peanut-butter-stuffed pretzel in the #chubbyhubby pint – it can take some digging and there are moments of desperation but if and when it happens... oh my.
