Thank you to the literally thousands of tweeps who sent comments, DMs, RTs, & likes for this tweet, truly.

I was amazed & humbled by the well meant pieces of sage advice & as always slightly humored by often misspelled or misdirected trollings.

1/
I find it exciting that so many are so tuned into the midterm elections, which will be one of the most consequential elections in our nation's long history.

Blue or die.

I am also encouraged by the response from actual Texans who often said that the poll is nonsense.

2/
Like me, those Texans believe that @BetoORourke can and must win next month.

Sending Ted Cruz packing is not just a national priority, it's a Texan one as well.

Thank for being an active participant in your democracy.

You might just help save us.

I'm going to address a couple points & then mute this comment thread.

If you don't think that @HillaryClinton or the people around her, many of whom were brilliant & socially conscious POC, didn't know of or understand the data you're referencing then you know nothing of HRC.
1/
You certainly don't seem to recall the finer details of 2016 and, despite your claims to understand the particular pressures she was under, refuse to give those pressures their proper due.

In an election filled with fake news & populist hyperbole from the far right & left..

2/
...an election that was overwhelmed by such virulent misogyny it actually started to feel normal, where Clinton was mocked for being too prepared, and was lectured for being too wonky, and where she was already offering some pretty nuanced and in depth arguments on race...

Not understanding your point. You expect that Clinton would come out on the losing end of such a comparison?

I totally disagree.

I've listened to @HillaryClinton speak passionately about race for three decades.

Race and racism were a central focus of her 2016 campaign.

1/
She didn't speak about it just every once in awhile @amikegreen, she spoke about it every single day of the campaign.

In fact, race and criminal justice was the topic of her first policy paper for the campaign, which she presented in April 2015.

2/
She continued making major speeches on the topic of race throughout the campaign.

Here again from June 2016.

It gives me hives. My blood pressure starts to climb. My mouth will sometimes go completely dry.

It's crazy I know, but there it is...

The thought that after everything we have been through, that she's been through, that another woman will get recognition as "First."

1/
2020 gives me a sour stomach, and it's only 2018. And yet from this distance I can see that @TheDemocrats are going to get the tone wrong in two years.

Nothing new.

In my dreams 2020 would be a taking back of 2016. It would be an acknowledgment that we / #SheWon.

2/
The convention would be as much about thanking @HillaryClinton as it would be her leading the mantle to whomever we nominate.

She would be introduced as the legitimate President of the United States, and she would introduce the nominee and pass the mantle to her / him.

Since I declared today “Fun” #Tweet Day (A rarity for me: almost always serious & a nerd in public), Here’s a secret: My obsession with food goes beyond “eating” I love to cook- In addition to all the mambo jumbo multiple univ degrees I am a trained chef obsessed with food ...
By the way: Anyone who wants to attack this from the “feminist” point of view can go to ####. Those are the misguided (brainwashed, used & utilized by #DeepState for half a century) ignoramus who know zero about true Women Empowerment. I am a proud chef/cook and loving it!!!
Let me clarify 1 more thing: I know tons of desperate people who hunt 4 mates on social media- I ain’t mentioning my cooking skills or other non-feminist side to score in that department. Here’s Another secret on this: Been married (same man) for 27 years;nowadays that’s Record!

Advice from a Retired Husband

1. It is important for men to remember that, as women grow older, it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as when they were younger. When you notice this, try not to yell at them.
2. Some are oversensitive, and there's nothing worse than an oversensitive woman. Doug provides some sage advice:
My name is Doug. Let me relate how I handled the situation with my wife, Carry.
3. When I retired a few years ago, it became necessary for Carry to get a full-time job, along with her part-time job, both for extra income and for the health benefits that we needed. Shortly after she started working, I noticed she was beginning to show her age.

#COMMENTS on the @Airtel_Ug @K2Telecom endorsement agreement.
Is the Airtel/K2 transaction a merger or acquisition? What does it mean for K2 customers? Has @UCC_Official approved this transaction?
The Airtel/K2 transaction is neither a merger nor acquisition. It's a brand endorsement arrangement, were K2 entered into agreement allowing @Airtel_Ug to use her Trademark, Brand name (K2 Telecom) & Resources to market @K2Telecom products & services to customers @UCC_Official
Under the Brand Endorsement Agreement, K2 customers will continue enjoying the same or similar services with a different code prefix (0708). The customer migration will be voluntary. Customers will exercise their contractual right to either move to Airtel or not.

Thank you! US journo Zack Ford is publicly defaming 4thWave families as part of a smear campaign vs Jesse Singal's article just released by @TheAtlantic .Well known trans activists are also libeling us as a "hate group". We invite all to visit our website to judge for themselves.
Part of a multi-part tweet promoting Ford's hit piece on Singal, 3 parent groups, & the Atlantic. "Authorities" quoted in Ford's piece are all trans activists. He also bemoans the fact that Atlantic editors wouldn't take orders from trans activists to pre-censor Singal's story.
If you search Twitter for "4thwavenow" , a mass of angry tweets libel us a "hate group." Same tactic is used against @Transgendertrd . Reality is, the hate comes from opposite side: activists can't abide parents prioritizing their kids' health over the demands of trans activists.

Well. I finally used my expandable baton, a serious item on my Police duty belt...

Kid had a ball get away from him on a busy road as I drove by. So I stopped, hit the lights, got out, & used the baton to pry the ball loose from under a car. Worked like a charm w/ my t-rex arms
Shift ended beyond busy. But a good busy. Calls where it was lots of interaction with people needing to be heard in some form or fashion. That & no stupid accident reports make me happy. Full spectrum calls: stolen car/hit & run, suicide threat, prowler, arguments, more arguments
Driving to a call and a car with two young people turns the wrong way into a busy one way street in front of me. I stop all traffic as they turn around and the driver says ‘sorry, my phone told me to turn the wrong way!’ I wanted a witty ‘get a better phone’ zinger but I choked.

Always level up your dress-code when traveling out-of-state via airplanes.
Countless conversations which lead to deals & opportunities are sparked in transit simply because “you look like someone on the way to do important”
Service industry subconscious treats you better too.
Never step foot in an airport without shining your shoes first.
Your shoes are what people see first as you approach
Shoes possess the superpower of subconsciously communicating how you feel about yourself
Ask any lady in your life who loves you, they will explain on my behalf.
#LawsofTravel
Treat all who serve you like Gold. Remember their names. Thank them for serving you. Compliment them.
This is powerful in Las Vegas & will open Up doors to an entirely different experience during your stay.
