Leave it to @Twitter to fuck up on CATS day by suspending a verified comedian who changed his name to “Cats Movie” and then made jokes.
AND! Twitter itself decided to put the verified badge next to the identifier that they let us change! If they put the badge next to the actual username, which verified accounts can’t change or they lose verification, causing this sort of confusion wouldn’t be as easy.
I love that a literal tax lawyer came into my mentions to more or less say Twitter was right to suspend @jaboukie.
Yes, it is entirely possible that what @jaboukie did violated policies. ... He’s a comedian who made some very funny jokes and if this is what Twitter wants to spend its time on while Trump denigrates groups and people on the same platform, that’s their choice. I will mock it.

It’s amazing that the new never-Trump take is that the Republican Party hadn’t been sowing the seeds of racism, sexism, nationalism, etc. for a long time before Trump, but rather that they were just being wrongly attacked by the left as doing so.
After the last week, it’s all about triage for these folks: How does the Republican Party recover after Trump? And, if they take any blame, they’ll actually have to rethink things. Instead, it’s far easier to blame the left and say Trump was a knee-jerk, extreme response to them.
And this isn’t just this thread. We’ve seen versions of this throughout the past week. The discussion about past presidential nominees, for example. It’s all an attempt to blame those seeking to correct course and address racism long before we got to Trump ... for Trump.

“Next hour: Humid.”
Also: Last hour, and the hour after the next hour.
Americans made it to the moon 50 years ago tomorrow, but I don’t know if I can make it to the Washington Monument tonight.

1/ Ten years before the EU referendum happened, a "Charity" was set up.
2/ The Taxpayer's alliance Research Trust. This later changed its name to the 'POLITICS AND ECONOMICS RESEARCH TRUST Company number 05982645'
3/ The company/charity has had many figures join and leave over the years, but what's notable is that it is a veritable who's who of 'hard leave' figures. Lets look at a few.

@RANDCorporation Okay, this starts out with a major falsehood regarding the Battle of Ia Drang. Timothy R. Heath is the Rand Co. Senior International & *Defense* Researcher, & yet he gets things totally wrong about that battle - maybe because he only watched the movie or something.
@RANDCorporation "Using accurate artillery fire, close air support, and novel doctrines of air mobility, the disciplined, well-led American forces fought skillfully against a resolute and capable adversary that had been at war for decades. ... >
@RANDCorporation ... > Although U.S. forces eventually withdrew from the battlefield, they did so in good order and inflicted at least twice as many casualties as they incurred."

I've had a job for half my life and I'm realizing my financial mindset hasn't changed. I'm still living like I'm a single 18 year old and not a homeowner, spouse and mother of two. Here's an ongoing thread of financial resources that I'm implementing or planning to use.
I made this video to kick off the year. When I did these things faithfully, I saw my debt decrease.
I'll start small. If I purchased frivolously within the last few weeks, I take back the items that I didn't need. I just bought $30 worth of matte lipsticks this weekend. They are all going back. That's $30 extra dollars I could have put on my car note or student loans.

Highlights now coming through via radio pooler @stevenportnoy of @POTUS remarks at #gridirondinner. He joked his staff was concerned he couldn’t do self deprecating humor. "I told them not to worry. Nobody does self deprecating humor better than I do."
On @VP: "I reallly am very proud to call him The Apprentice. But lately he’s showing a particularly keen interest in the news these days. He is asking has he been impeached yet? I don’t like that."
"Mike, you can’t be impeached when there’s no crime. I thought that was going to get a much better laugh. Melania said use it, it’s good."
