Wall Street has enjoyed great success over the past few years.

The 2020 election will be about making Main Street successful too.

18 of the 30 metropolitan areas with the fastest job growth are mid-sized or smaller.

Smaller metro areas dominated job growth in sectors including manufacturing (all the top 20), information (all the top 10), natural resources, construction, and mining.

80% of U.S. metropolitan areas have posted positive job growth figures for the year.

In several cities, (largely midsize manufacturing and mining hubs in the Northeast and Midwest) job growth in 2018 was more than triple the 1.4% national growth.

“The #IPromise School is the culmination of nearly a decade of work by LeBron James' foundation, with its focus on educating children from challenging situations or backgrounds.”

“For George W. Bush and Barack Obama, the idea of crying children torn from their parents’ arms was simply too inhumane to embrace as policy.”

“It’s disgraceful, and it’s terrible to see families ripped apart and I don’t support that one bit.”

“Any forced separation is highly stressful for children and can cause lifelong trauma, as well as an increased risk of other mental illnesses, such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD.”

Hey, how's this for autism 'awareness' month: some percentage of you who are reading this tweet are #actuallyAutistic and aren't aware of it.

I'm going to post a bunch of questions I wish I had been asked in this context, years ago. This is not diagnosis! But it's instructive.
Do you need a lot of time alone? Even in a relationship or family, even when you really love the other people in your life, even (especially?) when there isn't anything particularly pressing for you to do?
Do loud noises cause you distress? Or background sounds that won't quiet stop? Do you prefer to keep the lights off? Are there foods you can't eat or fabrics you can't wear because the textures just "feel bad" in a way you can't explain?

Alright, so last week I promised to run a thread of all of the @UK_Patterson Security and Intelligence comps questions that I've asked since arriving here in 2005.
Turns out that was a lie; I only have the list since 2007. But nevertheless, let's proceed. These questions are kind of a running history of US national security policy since 2007, mediated by my own personal obsessions and intellectual tics.
It's important to understand that the question is only a prompt for the student to tell me what s/he knows. Students can answer in whatever way they feel appropriate, and are evaluated (in oral defense) on the strength of that answer.

It's not well known that the congregation of the First African Baptist Church in Richmond donated approximately $40 towards Irish Famine Relief in 1847. Around 2,000 members of the congregation were slaves, and only 150 were free.
Instead of thanking this impoverished and enslaved community for their generosity, the Irish American Boston Pilot newspaper used this story to mock British philanthropy and essentially argue that it was proof that the Irish had it “worse” than slaves.
Thirteen years later the same newspaper argued that the abolition of slavery would be a terrible mistake as "by overstocking the market of labor [it would] do incalculable injury to white hands.”

u may have seen that brazil nearly elected a full-on fascist in the 1st round of its presidential elections on sunday.
u may have questions too.
i'll use this thread to clarify+debunk things i see circulating that are dead wrong.
i'll also provide some reading suggestions.
vamos+
brazil has run-off voting & bolsonaro (whom i'll refer to as the fascist) did not reach 51%,so not ALL hope is lost. between the 1st round of the general election on sunday (which also was for senate, house, and governor) and the 2nd round, candidates have 3 weeks to campaign.+
the remaining candidates for the 2nd round of the presidential election are the fascist (whose problems i have gone into ad nauseum on this site & written about elsewhere and you can go searching for later) and fernando haddad, who represents PT (workers' party)+

Over the past few years I struggled with stress, anxiety, and not taking care of myself after cancer.

So 6 months ago, I decided to live my life differently.

This is my story of how exercise, mindfulness, and gratitude are changing me.

❤ 💪

This was painful to write, especially when I started. I debated for weeks whether I could do this or not.

Ultimately, writing about my issues and commitment made me feel good. And it’s important for me to share. I hope this story can help others too.

macstories.net/stories/second…
Working out and being committed to daily exercise has been essential to improve my physical and mental health.

The Apple Watch played an important role in this, and I’m thankful for how it encourages me every day.
