Ironically, this 6-minute video on how to waste less time was 6 minutes of totally wasted time.

In fact, more than 6 minutes, because it was so bad, I felt the need to waste more time tweeting about its awfulness.
The closing: "You die. But you won the award for most lives lived in one life. No one knows quite what you did with all that time...
All they know is you sure didn't waste it, right?"

Apparently you spent 50 years obsessing about nutrition fads & "reading" summaries of books.
Virginia @page88 rightly historicizes efficiency. But I'd suggest it's progressive era capitalism:
Frederick Winslow Taylor's Principles of Scientific Management & the stop-watch time studies.

See David Montgomery; @JohnFabianWitt's Accidential Republic
@GilmoreGlenda, this progessive era labor history minute was for you.

An indicted Netanyahu is running for his life today...
And it isn't even remotely front page news, partly because polls predict the same stalemate for a 3d time.

Except it turns out that Arab turnout is even bigger this time...
Maybe good news...
haaretz.com/israel-news/el…
As of 6 pm, "Voter turnout continues to be highest since 1999":
56.3%, 2.8% higher than in September election.

And this is despite a partial Coronavirus quarantine.
Ugh. Nevermind. Netanyahu probably won (can't block a coalition with these projections).

Wise decision.
@PeteButtigieg knew his campaign was on the edge-edge.
I hope this Chastens other Dem candidates to end their campaigns Amy-ably and drop the Mike.
It's Warren-ted.

(Cc: @Chas10Buttigieg)
@PeteButtigieg @Chas10Buttigieg Surely this played a role:
Pete dropping out helps Biden, Warren, and Bloomberg get past the 15% threshold in more of Tuesday's states, reducing Bernie's delgate haul.

This is the more recent poll on where Pete’s voters will go.
Not a help to Bernie
And seems likely that many who like Amy will choose a more viable candidate after SC (Biden).

More wombat twitter please.
A group of wombats is a colony, a wisdom, or a mob.

Sounds like each era of American history.
Or like our modern political tribes.
Here’s one provocative periodization:

Colony (and Plantation): 1600s through 1954/1965.

Wisdom: 1965-2016

Mob: 2016-??

Week 152 ...we have covered that the potency of his tweets have had decreased, both in impact and visibility, as his time in office wears on. Also, notably, the media coverage of Trump’s frenzied tweeting has dropped off theweeklylist.org/weekly-list/we… via @Amy_Siskind
@Amy_Siskind On Saturday, Politico reported U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson ordered the White House to preserve records of all of Trump’s dealings with foreign leaders, including his interactions with Ukraine.
@Amy_Siskind On Saturday, Trump called for Sen. Mitt Romney’s impeachment, tweeting, without evidence, Utahns consider their vote for him “a big mistake,” and calling him “a fool” who plays into the hands of Democrats.

 “It’s About Time!”
by @DickieArmour


You have 24 hours a day.

But how do you spend your time?

This #tweetstorm is a wake up call.

It’s about time, and how you spend it.

#Time #TimeManagement #24Hours #itsabouttime
2.
 Let’s assume each day begins and ends at midnight.

Let’s assume we work for 10 hours a day, 5 days a week.

That leaves 14 hours.

We sleep for 8 hours a night.
3.
 That’s leaves 6 hours every week day.

And 16 hours each Saturday and Sunday.

That’s 6 x 5 = 30 hours Mon - Fri + 32 hours at the weekend.



A total of 62 hours a week, of your time to spend.

@_aLFRe_ @derbeHotline @TajanaGudenus 1. Why do I have a problem?
I'm in Germany.
But would not rule out intelligence services being involved in the #Strache-Video.
@cicero_online mentions #Mossad (Israeli secret service) - I'm not certain.
German #BND - I would not rule out!
#IbizaGate
@_aLFRe_ @derbeHotline @TajanaGudenus @cicero_online 2. #Boehmermann (GER comedian): Knew about #Strache-Leak in April 2019, but I think this is too big for him.
"Zentrum für Politische Schönheit" (#ZPS from #Ruch, is a far left leaning outfit engaged in "political happenings") may be involved. I also posted names.
@_aLFRe_ @derbeHotline @TajanaGudenus @cicero_online 3. My take: The #Strache-Video
- was planned for a long time
- planning includes befriending & gaining the trust of #Gudenus
- Gudenus introduced the "fake billionaire" to #Strache
- the #villa had to be set up (cameras & more): Ask re owner, who rented it out?

@BlairKing_ca @steeletalk @BCGreens @AJWVictoriaBC 1/ Hi Blair, I find many (most?) of your analyses thorough and commendable. In this one case, your source data is a bit off. If you have a garage, buying + installing a Level 2 charging station will probably cost $1500 ballpark. Some folks (me!) just use a wall outlet.
@BlairKing_ca @steeletalk @BCGreens @AJWVictoriaBC 2/ That's based on roughly 500-ish detached home incentives Plug In BC distributed in 2018. Avg cost for apartments / condos is a lot higher. Now, EVs *do* remain more expensive than combustion vehicles. No denying that.
@BlairKing_ca @steeletalk @BCGreens @AJWVictoriaBC 3/ I think the avg Canadian new car retails for ~$35k?
The avg ("mean") EV sold in Canada in 2018 had an MSRP of maybe $48-$50k.
(I've only done a quick estimate.) That's pushed up by Tesla sales.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

docs.google.com/document/d/1_J…

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

How greed and fear affect you?

People show some ponzi scheme and say monthly 10% income - Greed kicks in and people put lot of money to become rich overnight!

Society say your kid will lag behind if he is not in top school - Fear Kicks in and you pay lacks on nursery kid.

1/n
Example : Many people just reject to pay some small amount to learn about markets but get in to such schemes and lose out heavy :(

a Private School ask you to pay 100,000 donation just to admit your 3 year kid to school and people feel and act as if its there responsibility to pay that large chunk.. imagine what kind of investment its going to be till child get a job after some 18-20 yrs
