I am going to make a serious effort to go to the gym today for the first time since starting twitter. Here is what may get in the way:
- difficult parking.
- bunch of bros on leg day.
- # of people at the gym.
- ABBA tracks playing.
- taco truck parked nearby.
Otherwise all good.
I have only gained 15 lbs since.... it is not that bad...
Correction : ABBA tracks NOT playing
Update on gym day.
The only way I can be talked into serious physical activities is if I cross the border illegally into North Korea and get caught.
Update on the dunkin donut work out day: my kid licked the sugar off all the cronuts and put them back in the box.
I would go boxing everyday if the ICETapo director joins me as a sparring partner. He looks like he would benefit from it. Win win
No gym today, bad weather. End of gym thread

72/While they abandon over $11 billion in tax refunds because they do not qualify to get them.
While they do not qualify for a lick a federal benefits contrary to what some have been fed by the racist propaganda machine
73/ IMPORTANT TWEET🚨
How much tax dollars undocumented immigrants leave to every state ( they do not file to claim it) and how much tax revenue each state could benefit from if their status is adjusted. See for yourself. They abandon that money because they never file returns
NOW FLORIDA, where a lot of racists breed, derived the most revenue from taxes paid by undocumented immigrants. PS: Hi @marcorubio, how are those massage sessions on Wisconsin ave? you should leave a review.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/research/addin…

The mother of all immigration threads with Verifiable facts covering:
1/ 🚨There is no border crossing crisis🚨
Unauthorized Immigrant Total Dips to Lowest Level in a Decade
The decline is due almost entirely to a sharp decrease in the number of Mexicans entering the country without authorization.
Figures from @pewresearch
2/There were 10.7 million unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. in 2016, down from a peak of 12.2 million in 2007.
42% of these immigrants who have been in the country for over 5 years live in household with US CITIZEN CHILDREN.

The Stupident & @PressSec keep repeating that we stop 50 terrorists a week crossing the border ilegally. It is horse 🐴 💩.

state department declines, on average, 50 visa applications a week because of terror watch list, no fly list.. that is it, most planning to ✈️ in.
Now, if you needvfacts, about 50 people an hour cross into the United States with valid visa and overstay after their visas expires, making them out of status and “undocumented immigrants”

They come in using these:

Oh boy. I don't...even know if I can hold it together. I mean, it's just SO BAD.

But there are good things. Right? Right??? Hugh Jackman! He's...there! So.

But first, a tender and thoughtful and not at all needlessly over the top homage to Frankenstein, awww.

Frankenstein's Monster

Here's a little story about how gloriously dumb and interesting game AI can be. I've been playing Watch Dogs 2. (Way more interesting than the first game!)

So I go into a car dealership for the first time in the game. And things get... a little wonky, in the best possible way.
Now, I don't quite realize, at the time, how the car dealership works in the game. There's a couple of cars on the show floor, and I don't realize that in order to buy a car, I need to go talk to the salesman behind the counter. (There's a floating icon that I missed. I'm smart.)
So because I don't see the icon, I just decide that oh, these cars on the floor here are the cars for sale, I'll just get in one and drive off through their display window, that's how I buy it.

That's not how you buy a car, obviously. But that's my plan, because video games.

It’s my birthday and I want to talk about how hard birthdays can be for a domestic abuse survivor. I came to dread birthdays while living with my ex. Attention focused on me was a threat to him. Fun was a threat to his control. He made me believe that this was my problem.
He insisted that we go out, see my friends, etc. Even when I wasn’t in the mood to celebrate, I had to make plans. And then I’d watch those plans go up in spectacular flames. I knew it was all my fault. Why did I bother with having been born?
Maybe someone gave me a suspiciously nice gift. Maybe I’d ask him to stop drinking so much. Maybe I spoke too much English (my ex is Russian). And then it was on. I’d get screamed/mistreated. Usually in front of an audience. He would barrage me until I said it was my fault.

Here's someone who's highly engaged in politics, news and society but didn't know about #MyHROptOut until this morning.

If you're in media and wondering if this needs more coverage, here's your answer. #MyHealthRecord #Privacy
Opting out doesn't appear to be going well for people so far. I've seen multiple reports of long wait times on the phone and web server crashes.

I've you're planning to opt out, I'd suggest maybe not doing it today, but definitely not waiting too long.

#MyHealthRecord #Privacy
For the record, I've gone back and forward on opting out myself.

As a journalist with strong interests in tech and privacy, I really want to see the system for myself. Kick its tyres and experience its flaws and limitations personally. But ...

Are you one of those people who's looked back on 2017 and convinced yourself that you haven't achieved anything? Worried about catching up with your mates who seem to have done much better?

Let me tell you a story about #time.

A thread 👇
A long #time ago, back when I was about twelve or thirteen years old, my parents travelled to Uyo.

Before leaving, my mother asked me to prepare Edikang ikong soup so she and my father would eat when they returned.
When I was finished with the soup, it was supposed to look something like this:
