School vouchers are like taking part of your elevator maintenance budget & using it for ladders & helicopter ride coupons.

It doesn’t fix the elevators, not everyone can take advantage of the alternatives, and they don’t even reach every floor.

Irony: most Twitter threads would be better as linked articles, but fewer people would follow the link & read the article.

We sacrifice the ability to fit everything in that we’re trying to say in favor of the hope that someone will actually see part of it.

Who would’ve thought that post-NSA-revelations we’d be lining up for *more* surveillance? via @Verge

A handful of Latin, some French, a half-dozen from Spanish, the rest various native languages (sometimes filtered through Spanish or French)

Now that I think about it, I did read an article a few months back about the corporate takeover in the 90s, given who was involved.

I was helping a coworker troubleshoot, and it wouldn’t even let him launch *Activity Monitor*.

Still amazed the local Trader Joe’s parking lot was restriped to make it *worse*.

Listening to Little Earthquakes for the first time in forever. During Winter, a video for Frozen starts playing in my head. It’s perfect.

If this doesn’t exist, I need to learn how to edit a fan video and *make* it exist.

Read a summary of the later Sharknado films. Kept saying “Are you *$%* kidding me?!” So, basically just like following the news. #2017

When white supremacist assholes openly use nazi symbols/slogans, it’s past time to stop arguing over whether they’re *technically* nazis.

I HAD NO IDEA.
