And I believe @chefjoseandres, who is dedicated to serving people in need. Thank you, sir!
This is a lie! Actually @nationalguard has an amazing operation out of Asheville….thousands of them! More helicopters I’ve ever seen in an operation….tones of goods dropped….I see civilian planes landing, civilian helicopters delivering. As @WCKitchen helicopter no issues!

Re: the hateful comments about Gus Walz, son of @Tim_Walz, by self-professed Christians. NB: 90% of the Christian life is: Don't be mean. Also, do you think Jesus would mock someone with any kind of disability? Remember your Gospels: these are precisely the people Jesus seeks out

I’m still smiling from ear to ear after this Sat’s #NatBookFest.
It made me so happy meeting all of you, our community of readers, who joined us at the convention center and online.

The Balboa, the Vogue, and the newly restored Four Star movie theaters are SF gems. If you love independent movie houses, think about donating a couple of bucks to ensure their survival:

Ever since @nealkarlen 's Slouching toward Fargo, I've followed the Saints from afar. This feels like the real end of the story.

Can someone explain why I am doing this in school instead of learning how to use Excel
If I got these -- the very same shoes I had in 1979 -- would I be able to run a sub-5:30 mile again?

PC Week, April 23, 1990. The work we do may have changed, but the reasons why WFH is popular remain unchanged. This was pre-internet, folks! #WFH #telecommuting #computerhistory #IT
ALT Clipping from PC Week magazine showing that "telecommuting" is growing 10% per year and noting that it improves employees' quality of life, supports qualified remote employees, reduces office costs and air pollution, and is made possible by computing advances.
