Dodging the Spray Profile picture
I write fiction of questionable merit. You've been warned. Also, I'm a PhD student in Mathematics with a degree in Physics.

@swatic12 Before you get too pleased with yourselves, I would remind you that here in Chicago, we regularly get to see the looks on the faces of Indians as Winter approaches, and they do not look happy. @swatic12 At 5 C, they are shaking like leaves while bundled up, and looking on in amazement as the "fragile Europeans" wander around comfortably in T shirts and shorts.

@jack The amazing thing is that Jack Dorsey can post this "fertilizer" and be taken seriously.

Reality check: @coffeespoonie saw her account get suspended after she talked back to the neo-Nazis who threatened to rape her. @jack @coffeespoonie I have a best friend who posted his last active tweet and logged out for the last time three days ago, after his cousin got suspended.

@LichWeatherBot I need somewhere to post a navigational tweet that people will use to find their way around my moments as a reply, so it won't appear on my profile page, and where it won't bother anybody.

The above tweet is from an automated bot. @LichWeatherBot The description says that replies aren't being monitored. The OP's tweet is a weather report from a few months ago, so probably hardly anybody will look at it, and I won't be disrupting an ongoing conversation.

But if I have stepped on somebody's toes in some way, sorry.

@misskeelahrose @readingquietly @threadreaderapp This is nothing short of atrocious. I just did a search to see what lead up to Keelah's bigoted attack on this person.

twitter.com/search?f=tweet…

There was no interaction between them until 14 hours ago.
@misskeelahrose @readingquietly @threadreaderapp Let's archive this

web.archive.org/web/2019081718…

and then do a slightly more advanced search. Did @readingquietly ever write anything about Keelah?

@HashtagGriswold Speaking as somebody who lives in Chicago, I'd like to point to the 800 pound gorilla in the room nobody is talking about. @HashtagGriswold There is, in fact, a lot of racial violence in Chicago, some of it the stuff of nightmares, but it isn't being inflicted BY white people, it is being inflicted ON white people, and it's nothing new.

@savtah8 @_centrist_ @Israel "ISRAEL IS NOW PRODUCING WATER FROM AIR"

Extracting water from air? No matter how good one's engineering is, one can only extract as much as nature offers. Israel is the size of Delaware and arid. If we all move there, Israel will have more people than Illinois. @savtah8 @_centrist_ @Israel That air is going to get awfully dry.
